phpBB first x number of posts on directory index

[sabian1982]

Is there a mod avaliable to add a select number of latest posts (say the last 5 posts) from a phpBB forum? Eg you would add the small amount of code to the index page (or where ever you wanted the latest posts to appear) and then in the specific coded page you'd provide the url/root of the phpBB installation. Is this possible?

Probably one simple method would be to use an RSS parser to get it from the RSS feed on your directory. You can find some RSS parsers here:

Then you could insert the code into your phpBB template file.

If you get it working, please be sure to report back about what you did.

I didn't read it correctly. I thought you wanted to display the latest links from phpLD on your phpBB. :)
I use topics anywhere for this also. You can see this in action here too:
