Hello,

I wanted to add "Latest Post" and "Newest Thread" to the newbb index page where the forums are listed. Here is what I added, please rigorize if needed.


In newbb_index.html (added to the Last Post cell):

Newest Thread: <a href="viewtopic.php?topic_id=<{$forum.forum_newest_thread_id}>&forum=<{$forum.forum_id}>"><{$forum.forum_newest_thread|truncate:25:"...":true}>a>  by <{$forum.forum_newest_thread_creator}>   <br /> Last Post:  <a href="viewtopic.php?topic_id=<{$forum.forum_lastpost_id}>&forum=<{$forum.forum_id}>#forumpost<{$forum.forum_lastpost_thread_id}>">Re: <{$forum.forum_lastpost_thread|truncate:25:"...":true}>a>  by <{$forum.forum_lastpost_user}>


In include/functions.php (anywhere is fine for these):

function newbb_getTopicNameFromId$topic_id )
{

    global 
$xoopsDB;
    
$query "select topic_title FROM " $xoopsDB -> prefix('bb_topics') . " WHERE topic_id = " $topic_id "";
    
$result $xoopsDB -> query($query);

    while (list(
$title) = $xoopsDB -> fetchRow($result))
    {
        
$topic_name $title;
    }

    return 
$topic_name;
}

function 
newbb_getNewestThread($forum_id){

$array = array();

    global 
$xoopsDB;
    
$query "select topic_title,topic_id,topic_poster FROM " $xoopsDB -> prefix('bb_topics') . " WHERE forum_id = " $forum_id " ORDER BY topic_id DESC LIMIT 1";
    
$result $xoopsDB -> query($query);

        foreach(
mysql_fetch_assoc($result) as $key => $value)
        {
            
$array[$key] = $value;
        }

    return 
$array;

}


In forum.php (this goes in the function &display(&$forums_obj) at the bottom of the file, I added mine right above the line "$_forum_data['forum_lastpost_time'] = newbb_formatTimestamp($post_obj->getVar('post_time'));"):

$_forum_data['forum_lastpost_id'] = $post_obj->getVar("topic_id");
$_forum_data['forum_lastpost_thread'] = newbb_getTopicNameFromId($post_obj->getVar("topic_id"));
$_forum_data['forum_lastpost_thread_id'] = $forum_obj->getVar("forum_last_post_id");

$_newest_thread newbb_getNewestThread($_forum_data["forum_id"]);

$_forum_data['forum_newest_thread'] = $_newest_thread["topic_title"];
$_forum_data['forum_newest_thread_id'] = $_newest_thread["topic_id"];
$_forum_data['forum_newest_thread_creator'] = $users_linked[$_newest_thread["topic_poster"]];
