Hi - is there a maximum number of recent posts that can be displayed please? Am trying to increase from 16 to 24 but the block isn't accepting it.
-
Try this in a php block.
This is what I use on my portal.
Although scrolling it may help.
-
Thanks Brack1 - but I'm not seeing a code, am I missing an attachment somewhere?
I did try the scrolling code but couldn't figure out how to block some boards from showing on it so went back to the standard layout. :)
-
Not a coder though I expect the board numbers may need to be removed.
-
Sorry - when I was talking about not seeing a code I meant here - you said Try this in a php block but I don't know what 'this' is.

Here ya go. I really must upgrade my memory at some point.
