MyBB Community Forums

I would like the have a last thread link in my header like in this forum http://windows7forum.pl

I don't know if it's a plugin or just a matter of modification in template header, I tried to do my own but seems to not work, nothing is showing up, here is my code in templates -> header

<div class="latestnewsbar"><strong>Last thread:</strong> <a href="{$lastpost_link}" title="{$full_lastpost_subject}"><strong>{$lastpost_subject}</strong></a> ({$lastpost_time})</div>

And it turns up like this:


Is there any way to do correct this or I need a plugin for that? Can someone make a plugin for this if its possible? Or shoul I just correct my code by something else?

Regards

I just posted a reply to your thread. I simply edited another plugin to fit your needs. The code is a bit messy but it works great.

Anyone else can help? because this is not working...

I can give this a shot tomorrow, since I'm heading to bed now.

This should be an easy plugin, basically it is just a template edit.

He already got it to work, but a nicer plugin would be welcome.

I'm making something like this for my community. Hopefully release it tomorrow.

I finish a plugin with what you ask: Last Thread Link

Until will be aproved by staff, I will let you to download from here, but remember: it's a initial release (my first plugin) so... can have bugs.
Was tested in MyBB 1.6.2 and work's without problems.

I wait to tell me if it help you or not.
Thank you.


Download (updated with code of Aries-Belgium):

Nice to see your plugin Congratulations on your first release.

@MyBB Fan: your plugin doesn't check if the user has viewing permissions in the forum the last thread is posted in.

include_once(MYBB_ROOT."/inc/functions_search.php");

$where_sql = "visible = '1'";
$unsearchforums = get_unsearchable_forums();
if($unsearchforums)
{
	$where_sql .= " AND fid NOT IN ($unsearchforums)";
}
$inactiveforums = get_inactive_forums();
if($inactiveforums)
{
	$where_sql .= " AND fid NOT IN ($inactiveforums)";
}

$query=$db->query("SELECT tid, subject, username FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."threads WHERE {$where_sql} ORDER BY dateline DESC LIMIT 1");

Thank you, sir.
Anyway... I ill add new options soon.
I wait to report any bugs...
