This mod does the same thing as my original recent topics mod but vbSEO'izes the URL's. You MUST have vbSEO installed for this one to work. Otherwise use the original one.
RECENT TOPICS (vbSEO edition) by LBmtb
Version 1.00
Last updated: Dec 21th 2006
DESCRIPTION
This script will display the topics with the most recent posts on a non-vb page (any HTML page). The page it's on must have a .php extension or you should setup apache to parse the page correctly. The threads with the latest posts are on top. The output is a clean list in this format:
Customizable options include:
* forum ID - choose to only include or exclude certain forums
* number of topics displayed
* CSS class names for the topic name/url and last poster/date
* and a few others
COPYRIGHT
There is a copyright line. I am releasing this script on the condition that you do not remove this line unless you send $5 via paypal to email. Thanks in advance for understanding.
