RECENT TOPICS by LBmtb
Version 2.0
Last updated: September 9th, 2008

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. You may output the recent topics in table format, list format, or retrieve an array of the topics for custom output. Installing this script assumes basic PHP knowledge. PHP5 is required. This is an updated version of this mod: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1141334

REVISION HISTORY
Version 2.00: Complete code rewrite (OOP). Preview of first post removed for performance. Made it possible for multiple recent topic blocks to be added to a page.
Version 1.03: Adds small preview of first post when the user rolls over the links
Version 1.02: option to exclude certain forums
Version 1.01: option to only include certain forums
Version 1.0: Initial Release

INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Unpack the files into it's own directory. Make sure that recent_topics.class.php, config.php, and register.class.php stay in the same directory now and after you upload to your web server.
2) Go into config.php and modify the values for your forum URL and the database connection.
3) Go into usage.php to see examples and instructions on the usage of Recent Topics. If you use Recent Topics in a different directory, make sure to adjust the 'require_once('recent_topics.class.php');' line to reflect that change.
