I have the following code below. What I am trying to do is to Display (10) topics using
$min = 5; // change this to the number of active topics you want to display.
$max = 5; // change this to the number of active topics you want to display.
Now, the code below is repeated twice. One uses the $min variable and the other is suppose to use the $min, $max <- the sum of both. The problem is that I get an error when I try to after: LIMIT '.$min to make it LIMIT '.$min, $max
$result = $db->query('
SELECT p.poster_id AS has_posted, t.*
FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics AS t
LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p ON p.id=p.topic_id AND p.poster_id='.$pun_user['id'].'
INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f
ON f.id=t.forum_id
LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp
ON (
fp.forum_id=f.id
AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].'
)
WHERE (
fp.read_forum IS NULL
OR fp.read_forum=1
)
GROUP BY t.id
ORDER BY t.last_post DESC
LIMIT '.$min
) or error('Unable to fetch topic list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());
How can I get it to read them both?
I will also show the entire code.
