Guests cannot see the threads listed in the Recent Threads on Index plugin, even though all of the appropriate permissions are set. How can I fix this?

As someone not familiar with this coding, where within the code would I be able to make sure #3 above is actually present, and if its not, where does it go? Not sure I'm even looking at the right file.

^ look at below location
forum admin panel >> Templates & Style >> Templates >> [your theme templates] >>
Index Page Templates >> index
{$recentthread_headerinclude} can be above </head>
{$recentthreadtable} can be above or below {$forums}

^ that is fine. and the plugin should be working (if it is activated)
2016-06-23, 03:29 AM
I found it, but its at the bottom of all of the other categories. I had thought it would be on the side of all of the categories - how would I move it so that it lists the new threads in a completely different sidebar?
2016-06-23, 03:36 AM
^ in general, it doesn't fit in a sidebar (this plugin's purpose is different)
instead of this plugin, you can try using Top Stats plugin

Is there a way to move it so that its above the other categories, or will it always be at the bottom?
2016-06-23, 12:46 PM
^ of course, it can be moved to top.
change {$forums}<div id="recentthreads">{$recentthreadtable}</div>
to <div id="recentthreads">{$recentthreadtable}</div>{$forums}
and save the template
change {$forums}<div id="recentthreads">{$recentthreadtable}</div>
to <div id="recentthreads">{$recentthreadtable}</div>{$forums}
