Re: The Articles Topic

Everything was working perfectly until this happened. When the main website address ( http://meanvent.com/ ) is typed in the URL bar, it automatically forwards to a weird error page in the forum ( http://meanvent.com/forum ).

Re: The Articles Topic

Re: The Articles Topic

It works now, I just don't know how to format it. I tried adding some tags like <h1>, etc. but I couldn't get any to work, so I guess I just need to know where to put them to format the output of the script. Here's the script "theupdater" as is: <?php /* * home.php * Description: example f...

Re: Working example of displaying latest posts on external p

Okay so I got the script to work perfectly, but now I'm having trouble with the page it's on. Here's the process I went through at phpBB.com: http://www.phpbb.com/community/posting.php?mode=edit&f=71&p=13061904 . Anything I put after the script will not show up on the webpage. I think it has...
