Displaying Forum Data on Main Page - phpBB Fetch All  Bottom

  • Hello everyone,

    I'm looking for a module. I'm not even sure if one exists for PN, if so, I don’t know what the name is.

    Basically what it does is:

    Lets say I have a forum named News. When someone (like a mod or admin) post something there, it will reflect on the main page. This will be a normal thread but the first post will be on the main page. I've seen something like this before, but I don't think it was a PN website.

    If anyone knows what I'm talking about, could you please tell me the name and or give me a website address?

    I tried to search here but not knowing the name doesn't narrow the search.

    Thanks for your help.

    phpBB Fetch All is a modification to phpBB that displays data from the forum on any page of a website. It supports all phpBB versions from the 2.0.x branch.


    To see this in action go to www.upallnighters.com. In their center block, it will show the lastest post from the news section (go to forums/news)

    Does any of the PHP guru's know how this might work for PN? I know little about PHP so be gentle :)
