ok here goes, you need to find the id of the forum you want to make the "news forum" (you can do this by looking at the number at the end of the hyperlink to go to it e.g. if the forums page was viewforum.php?id=1 the forum id would be 1)

then open viewforum.php and find (line: 126)

if ($cookie['is_guest'] || $pun_config['o_show_dot'] == '0')
{
    // Without "the dot"
    $result = $db->query('SELECT id, poster, subject, posted, last_post, last_post_id, last_poster, num_views, num_replies, closed, sticky, moved_to FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics WHERE forum_id='.$id.' ORDER BY sticky DESC, last_post DESC LIMIT '.$start_from.', '.$disp_topics) or error('Unable to fetch topic list for forum', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());
}
else
{
    // Fetch topic ID's
    $result = $db->query('SELECT id FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics WHERE forum_id='.$id.' ORDER BY sticky DESC, last_post DESC LIMIT '.$start_from.', '.$disp_topics) or error('Unable to fetch topic list for forum', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

and replace with

$news_id = 1;
if ( $id == $news_id ) { $order_by = "posted"; }
else { $order_by = "last_post"; }

if ($cookie['is_guest'] || $pun_config['o_show_dot'] == '0')
{
    // Without "the dot"
    $result = $db->query('SELECT id, poster, subject, posted, last_post, last_post_id, last_poster, num_views, num_replies, closed, sticky, moved_to FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics WHERE forum_id='.$id.' ORDER BY sticky DESC, '.$order_by.' DESC LIMIT '.$start_from.', '.$disp_topics) or error('Unable to fetch topic list for forum', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());
}
else
{
    // Fetch topic ID's
    $result = $db->query('SELECT id FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics WHERE forum_id='.$id.' ORDER BY sticky DESC, '.$order_by.' DESC LIMIT '.$start_from.', '.$disp_topics) or error('Unable to fetch topic list for forum', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

making sure you change $news_id = 1; to equal the id of the news forum e.g. $news_id = 4; etc. save and upload viewforum.php and your done

usually you upload new files (do not overwrite old ones), and edit ones that are already there,

But still... Sometimes PM's are good for direct conversation... If you dont have access to a chat room people tend to use the PM system. Because it's simple and easy and with just a few clicks you have sent a message to the other partie.

i suppose it depends what kind of forum you are running, i hardly ever use PMsa but then i talk to most forum members in chatrooms...

you cannot vote on a post twice in a row, but you can vote twice if someone else votes in between your votes, this stops massive spam of posts to get at peoples ratings and also doesn't create a huge database

Nah looks good, i like the big difference in style in alternate posts, is this going to be like a rpg game based on the forum or the forum just being on the same site as it?

try QNX tongue has a version that boots off a floopy disk, with a browser and a text editor and some other stuff

Update: New version, have a look on the demo site, it gives the user a post rating in their profile, the language variables that should not have been there have gone (however all the text is hardcoded into the script not the language files yet), it is now valid html...

todo: add admin reset button for each post?,  add text to language file

anything else?

why would you want subforums? you have categories and forums to me thats easily enough

Try posting a long string without any spaces as normal text. It should just get chopped off without messing up the layout.

hmmm it cuts it off but if you drag your mouse along it it scrolls, should it not wrap it?

works in a quote box as well
