How can I make the recent topics plugin available on all pages? When I move it to the header it doesn't display any recent threads.

You would have to edit the core of the plugin, I think the hooks it uses are only coded to work(or are in) the index.php file. You'd have to check though. I'm not too advanced in this area, however I think a few edits would allow it to work.

Open recenttopicsindex.php (file plugin), and search (line: 18):

$plugins->add_hook("index_end", "recenttopicsindex_show");

and change to:

$plugins->add_hook("global_start", "recenttopicsindex_show");

For some reason I am not finding that first line anywhere in the file? Would you mind taking a screenshot of it for me? I have been looking for it but I just do not see that line anywhere.

Was googling and I think I may have titled this wrong. I meant the recent posts. I didn't realize there were 2 plugins like this.

Open recentpostsindex.php (file plugin), and search (line: 13):

$plugins->add_hook("index_start", "recentposts_box");

and change to

$plugins->add_hook("global_start", "recentposts_box");

In template index - remove: {$recentposts}
... and add in template or plugin (where you want to display) {$recentposts}.

Thank you for your help!
