Topic: New Recent Topics (not replies) on chosen boards (script inside)

[johncccccc]

This code I use on my portal to list new recent topics (not replies) and I remove the body and title, and it has a part to put a title, also, you can choose which boards it picks the recent topics from

$include_boards = array(82, 83, 84, 116);
                                 list board numbers here.

Code: [Select]

   echo '
<h3 style="text-decoration: underline; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">YOUR TITLE GOES HERE</h3>';


global $context, $settings, $scripturl, $txt, $db_prefix, $user_info;
global $modSettings, $smcFunc;

$num_recent = 5;
$exclude_boards = null;
$include_boards = array(82, 83, 84, 116);

if ($exclude_boards === null && !empty($modSettings['recycle_enable']) && $modSettings['recycle_board'] > 0)
$exclude_boards = array($modSettings['recycle_board']);
else
$exclude_boards = empty($exclude_boards) ? array() : (is_array($exclude_boards) ? $exclude_boards : array($exclude_boards));

// Only some boards?.
if (is_array($include_boards) || (int) $include_boards === $include_boards)

$include_boards = is_array($include_boards) ? $include_boards : array($include_boards);
}

$include_boards = array();

The result:



I added some CSS properties to make the background like that

[johncccccc]

Has anybody tested this yet?

[Farjo]

I've tested it - works well

Any way to add the board name and the starter?

[Portugal]

How can i exclude from this "moved topics" its possibile??


Thanks in advance
