Topic: A few questions (please take a look)

Hey. Ive got a few quick questions, i searched but i couldnt find the right information.

1. My forums are at forums.crysisbb.com and as you can see, there not centered. I changed the width to 800px but its still over to the left, how can i center this in the page?

2. Im going to have a page at crysisbb.com and i want to have a list of the 5 recent topics in a spot there. I thought i knew what i was doing but i screwed it all up last time. The code i thought was right just displayed as text instead of working. So thats why i think its messed up. Could someone please show me the code it takes to have the top 5 display, and where in the file i should enter it. Thanks a million!!

Ok that worked GREAT!

I took a glance at the http://wiki.punres.org/Miniportal page, but, i dont want to create a whole new page, i want to use the page ive already created and integrate a '5 recent' list. A perfect example is at www.bf2s.com
See how at the top right they've got the recent 5. I want mine to function just like that.

Thanks a ton

Re: A few questions (please take a look)

Oh i forgot to ask. Umm, this might come out a bit weird but...

Im creating an HTML page in Frontpage. So, am i going to have to save it as a .PHP if i add this code? Or what? Cause i can edit a php file in Dreamweaver and it works well with what frontpage makes.. Nevermind this if it doesnt make sense please, im just trying to figure out what im talking about tongue

I don't know how you can get the page to pull the data from the forum (not so experienced with PHP - just wait for another answer there), but the PunPortal Mod - available at www.punres.org, plays around with a lot of that stuff (recent topics and news, which is recent topics from a specific forum).

Re: A few questions (please take a look)

That's how you syndicate the 5 most recent topics wink
However, it looks like the original poster has decided to go with SMF.
