phpbb post links as a mambo module

vivekhyd · 29.11.2004, 19:47

I am sure this has been asked many times but i just could not find a post. I just installed Mambo 4.5.1 after using 4.5x for about 8 months. Now, i have a phpbb installation which i dont want to loose.

Is there a module that would display the last 5 posts of the phpbb forum as into a module in my mambo 4.5.1 home page?

Thanks, but i was looking for something else. I am not using the phpbb component of mambo. I am using a standalone installation of phpbb forum and i needed to provide links of latest posts in my mambo driven homepage.

As in

I have my phpbb forum here http://www.mysite.com/forum and my main site has mambo. I need a module that will generate links of the latest posts in the forum into a module that i can use.

TO ALL PHPBB USERS :

a vulnerability was found in PHPBB 2.0.10
hackers can deface your entire site or in some cases take over the entire server.
Upgrade to 2.0.11 at once !

In mod_latest_post.php change

print(" + <a target=\"$linktarget\" href=\"index$link.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=" . $menuitem ."&page=viewtopic&p=" . $post_id . "#" . $post_id . "\" title=\"" . $title . "\">" . $topic_title . "</a> \n");

to

print(" + <a target=\"$linktarget\" href=\"/forum/viewtopic.php?p=" . $post_id . "#" . $post_id . "\" title=\"" . $title . "\">" . $topic_title . "</a> \n");

Worked now. Just make shure that "...href=\"/forum/..." is right path for you.
