Problem displaying on the other pages

[filmfen]

I have problems displaying this mod on other pages? I have read the tutorial to do it on every page but still having problems. Where to put this EXAMPLE.PHP file? what is it? What does it contain?

[nickvergessen]

its just an example. You just must put the code somewhere before the ?> at the end of the file you want it to view.

Am added this MOD in my forum www.padukai.com in left side column.

But, it's shown in only front page! Not overall.

what can do for showing this Recent Topic mod box in overall pages?

pls guide me!

[nickvergessen]

you need to put the code you added to index.php in includes/functions.php somewhere inside the page_header() function.

if ($config['rt_index'])
{
   if (!function_exists('display_recent_topics'))
   {
      include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_recenttopics.' . $phpEx);
   }
   display_recent_topics($config['rt_number'], $config['rt_page_number'], $config['rt_anti_topics'], 'recent_topics', request_var('f', 0), true);
}

am added this additional Code in Index.php

Okay, Now where i want to put this above code?

am not known that includes/function.php file where is locate ....

pls guide me.

[selvaaa]

am not get idea for placing that "Recent Post-box" in all-over forum.


pls guide me.

I made the recent topics show up on the main blog page. By doing:

First find the php page that you want to show the recent topics, in my case blog.php

Find where is the pagefooter, and before add:

Code: Select all

if ($config['rt_index'])
{
   if (!function_exists('display_recent_topics'))
   {
      include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_recenttopics.' . $phpEx);
   }
   display_recent_topics($config['rt_number'], $config['rt_page_number'], $config['rt_anti_topics'], 'recent_topics', request_var('f', 0), true, $config['rt_parents']);
}

Then you need to put the include code on the template you want to show it, in my case was left menu.

Code: Select all

<!-- IF RECENT_TOPICS_DISPLAY --><!-- INCLUDE recent_topics_body.html --><!-- ENDIF -->

Hope it help other people who still messing with it.

Worked very well for me and here is my page:
