// TPortal recent topics block
function TPortal_recentbox()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt , $modSettings;

    // is it a number?
if(!is_numeric($context['TPortal']['recentboxnum']))
$context['TPortal']['recentboxnum']='10';

// leave out the recycle board, if any
if(isset($modSettings['recycle_board']))
$bb=array($modSettings['recycle_board']);
else
$bb=array();

$what=ssi_recentTopics($num_recent = $context['TPortal']['recentboxnum'], $bb, $output_method = 'array');
// Output the topics
$counter=1; $cmax=count($what);
echo '
<div style="width: 100%; ' , $context['TPortal']['recentboxscroll']==1 ? 'overflow: auto; height: 20ex;' : '' , '">';
foreach($what as $w){
echo '
<div class="smalltext"><a href="'.$w['href'].'">'.$w['short_subject'].'</a></div>
<div class="smalltext">', $txt[525], ' <b>', $w['poster']['link'], '</b></div>
<div class="smalltext">';
if(!$w['new'])
echo '<a href="'.$w['href'].'"><img border="0" src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/'.$context['user']['language'].'/new.gif" alt="new" /></a> ';

echo '['.$w['time'].']
</div>';

if($counter != $cmax)
echo '<hr />';
$counter++;
}
echo '

</div>';
}


thanks!!

Put this in a php block:

[johnkal]

Thanks for your answer

Since the number of replies isn't part of the ssi_recentTopics function, you'll need to use a copy of that function with the added feature.

How?

i have try your code and i take this error..

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /home/xxxxx/public_html/Sources/Load.php(1777) : eval()'d code(35) : eval()'d code on line 53"

[JPDeni]

How?

By using the code I gave you.

I fixed the error. I'd left out a comma.

[johnkal]

With the new code the index.php don't load..!
I think it can't connect with the database to take the results of replies!

[JPDeni]

Try it now.

[johnkal]

wow! it works! thank you!! 

[JPDeni]

You're welcome. I'm not sure what the problem was, really. I redid the whole code and it finally worked right. I guess I got the magic right the second time.

[Herr Inoddorell]

The Code works excellent JP, but I would like that the "new.gif" were right after the replies count number. I tried to modify the code, but can't get it to work. Could someone help me with this, please?

This is the code I'm using:

This should work.
