I have been waiting for a topics anywhere or better to come to phpBB3 for quite some time now, but i havent found noting yet.
http://www.afsvlaanderen.be/topics_anywhere - (Download) http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/2057
Is FAR AWAY from "the real deal", the forum ID etc is all a fixed value on them all because you change it in the file or in the ACP etc..
That meens no one other then the sever admin can make a custom extraction for them self etc..

Demo of the real deal:
http://forum.afsvlaanderen.be/topics_an ... ce_eng.php

As you can see, there is NO NEED to write the forum ID X-posts to show etc IN THE FILE.
Just do it easy in one file for multiple setting (one script can show 5 and another 10 etc)
Like this link that is created by the settings made:
topics_anywhere.php?mode=show&f=1&n=10&sfn=y&fnl=y&r=y&sr=y&h='a\'s\'m\'p\'l\&b=non&lpb=0&lpd=0&lpi=y
This tells the file how many topics/post/forum ID etc to show.. like the part "10&sfn" tells that there should be 10 topics.

The only problem that the real topics anywhere has is the backslash "\" as you can see in the url
That is created when using: Hide labels like:
Announcement:, Sticky:, Moved:, [ Poll ], (Locked)
Because the backslash is a security risk for the server and should not be used..

{REQUEST} - Topics Anywhere for phpBB 3.x.
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... #p10382965

For someone that can code like battye here, updating this old mod or create a new one like it or better would only take a a day or so i suppose.
So i do a request for it here :)

One thing i want to be added to the next real deal is some text from the actual topic itself, like the setting:
Maximum length (in characters) of topic titles, but for the post itself to show..

Like this (3 Topics):

» TOPIC - DATE
bla bla bla

» TOPIC - DATE
