Hi im new to php (cant write it, but can understand most of it) I was wondering how on phpbb2 to put the recent posts on another page. Im using this template. I would like it on the left side bar that sais LOREM IPSUM DOLOR. any suggestions? ty

Use php & mysql to pull the posts from the database then echo them

There should be a addon/modification/plugin for PHPBB2 (I know there is one for MyBB).

google for phpbb mods, i know there is one free that does exactly as you need

Ive searched all over the internet but I cant find anthing except for phpbb3. Anyone remember any code?

I had a quick look and found mentions to the phpbb3 version only too.. doh!... cant you upgrade your phpbb installation?

OR ...

Its actually quite a simple task but without knowing PHP or a similar server side language it will be quite a stuggle.. you just pull the data from a DB ... I can do it for you completely but I would have to do it from scratch ... I'd charge $15 for it, which is pretty much my minimum rate.

If your interested check out my freelance post : http://www.webmaster-talk.com/others...scripting.html

if you not, keep googling or take a browse through php.net.

Take it easy,
Sir P
