custom "Recent Topics from Board X, Y, Z only" php block

[JPDeni]

It's hard to tell, because I can't tell what the code actually is. The code was posted in quote tags instead of code tags, which could very well have changed what the code was originally supposed to be. For example, in the line

Code Select Expand


echo '
                                                <a href="', $scripturl, '?topic=', $my['topic'], '.from', $my['newtime'], '#new"><img src="',
$settings['images_url'], '/', $context['user']['language'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt[302], '" border="0" />[/url]';


Notice the [/url] at the end. That's BBC and should not be anywhere in php. It would take a whole lot of study to try to figure out what the original poster intended before they used the wrong tags. I would see if I could find something that was posted correctly.

tq... hope u can solve it...

[JPDeni]

I can't solve anything unless I can see the code as it's supposed to be. When I said

I would see if I could find something that was posted correctly.

I meant, "If I were you, I would see ..." IOW, this is something you need to do before I can help you.

[alhaudhie]

nope... the code is in latest post i send bofore...

the topic go correctly in FF but not in IE.
In IE the topic go smaller after one topic(small) and topic(smaller) and topic(smallest)

[JPDeni]

I'm using this code

Code Select Expand

$result=ssi_recentTopics(5, array('34'), return);
echo'<right>';
echo '<ul style="padding-left: 15px;">';
foreach($result as $my){
echo '<Li>'.$my['link'].'</Li>';
if(!$my['new'])
echo '<a href="'.$my['href'].'"><img border="0" src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/'.$context['user']['language'].'/new.gif" alt="new" /></a>';

}
echo '</UL>';
echo'</center>';
echo '<span class="smalltext"></span>';

I can't make it to show specific boards, it always shows every board there is

If you are only getting it from one board, you don't need to use array. Also, if you do use an array with the board id's, the board id does not need single quotes around it because its a number.

$results=ssi_recentTopics(5, 34, 'array');

Or

$results=ssi_recentTopics(5, array(4,12,34), 'array');

Now it's showing this error

Any help?

Wait a second. The code you're using, with ssi_recentTopics only excludes boards. So, if you have

Code Select Expand


$result=ssi_recentTopics(5, array('34'), return);


it means "Show the five most recent topics from every board except board 34." The whole point of this topic is that the original poster wrote code that allows you to display just the topics from the board or boards you specify.

You'll need to reread the topic.
