phpbb_recent_topics fix/install advice

Thanks for posting this chrisdoth, I’ve just released version 0.4 (when wp.org updates) so it shouldn’t be a problem anymore.

I’ll subscribe to this feed so that I can see any further issues.

Cheers,
Nick

is this compatible with 2.5.1?

yeah, should work fine as 2.5 & 2.5.1 are very similar, I guess I should update the plugin page ??

Thank you for sharing this! What a godsend.

I do not know code, I just fiddle. If I wanted to exclude more than one forum, how would I add that to the display.php? I’ve tried a number of things, but my ignorance is limiting my ability.

I added this:
$results = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $TOPIC_TABLE WHERE forum_id != 60 ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT $LIMIT");

…But would like to exclude around 15 forums from the recent topic list. Thanks!

I got some help from a friend. This is how you do it:

# Run The query
$results = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $TOPIC_TABLE WHERE forum_id != 58
AND forum_id != 60
AND forum_id != 62
AND forum_id != 65
AND forum_id != 66
AND forum_id != 67
AND forum_id != 71
AND forum_id != 72
AND forum_id != 74
AND forum_id != 81 ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT $LIMIT");

I hope that helps others who are looking to do the same thing!
