Hey all,

I dont know if this is the right place for this.... but can i make my recent topics on the main page pull only topics from certain categories..... IE i want it to not count a certain board. Can it do that? or how would i make it do that?

Thanks

There are a few scripts that does this.. have you tried looking in the block code snippets ??

One of my favourite is "In-the-news-block" ;)

You can change or add a link to exclude boards by doing something like this.

Boards = boards you want to include.
