Want to add Forum/Recent topics

[mynameiskhan]

Hi guys i have installed simple machine forums on my virtual airline now i wanted to add recent posts on my main virtual airline page or left menu how i can do that?

smf is easy to intergrate, they built most everything in. goto http://www.vpia.org/virtualairblue/Forum/ssi_examples.php and it will show all the examples of what you can do. Remeber to be logged into your forum if you have it so non-members cant see anything, as ssi will not display anything in that situation.

Irfan,

Don't paste code into posts. If you have to paste code, goto www.pastebin.com, and paste it there, and post the link here.

For the SSI, extract that file into a path, then include that file. So

include '/path/to/ssi/file';

Obviously, replace the path

Follow their examples, I'm not sure how anyone can really help. Their examples page just copy paste wht they put.
