I'm not sure if this exists or if it even possible, but is there a mod that exists that will show the last X number of posts on the forumhome?

I have a sidebar block that does this now, but I would love to have this as a part of the forumhome


OR


Allowing the activity stream to be apart of the ForumHome

That would be easy enough to do, just depends on exactly what you want.

[scottkoz20]

well - my vision for this would be similar to what you built had for your featured threads mod... allowing from 5-20 of the latest post to show in the forumhome at the top of the page before the first forum section that would have
-- Timestamp
-- Username
-- Title
-- Forum posted in

I do like in the activity stream that it can dynamic tell when there are new posts

There would be some forums I'd like to exclude from this, but not a need

[MarkFL]

What if a thread has more than 1 new post in it...do you want that thread to show only once, but link to the oldest new post?

yes - I would not want to have the same post on the list multiple times

the issue that I see with this mod is that it has more information than I would want to have on the page at this point.

hey Mark -

When I enable this, my Forumhome triggers this SQL error - the rest of the forum is fine.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)

I have it off at the moment - I need to rebuild my dev site this week as I blew it up (had to try this live )

[MarkFL]

Ah, I didn't take into account running this query on a large database. I have put a limit on the query...try this updated version please.

[scottkoz20]

same error

i wonder if the issue is on my /tmp directory

[MarkFL]

Hmm...I have never encountered that error before, and doing a search led me to believe it was due to a disk space issue on your server as a result of a query on all your posts. So, I figured limiting the query would cure it.
