Full Version: Including Forum List On Portal

I would like to include the forum list on the portal main page (ie the forums, thread and post count and the last post). How would I go about doing this? Thanks!
Ok. This is very easy to do, so I'll make a small tutorial but I need some details. Where would you like it to be placed? How many letters do you want to show before cutting off the title (to prevent the page from stretching and such)? How do you want the format? eg:

Forum1 (Threads: 3 | Posts: 10)
|- LastPostLinkedHere

Forum2 (Threads: 5 | Posts: 74)
|- LastPostLinkedHere

or something?
Thanks for the reply.

I would like it to be placed above the announcements ($announcements) on the portal page (portal.php).

I would like all the letters shown and such, I will simply cut it down to size with some table tags before and after it.

No, I would actually want the total forum list and formatting. Exactly what you would see on the index.php page.

Thanks, and I hope to hear a response back!

Hi
Well I would like to know how to do that .. even if it doesn't suit Kodaks.
Any chance of telling me how? .. Exactly like the above? With a 200 letter cutoff?

Thanx
