[SOLVED] phpbb fetch all show only 10 recent

[drkshenronx]

ok heres what I want to do. I have phpbb+fetch_all installed and everything works ok but I don't know alot about php and I just want the latest 10 recent forum posts to be displayed on my main page.

 

Here is the code to get the recent posts

 

<!-- RECENT -->
<?php if (isset($recent)) { ?>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="forumline">
  <tr>
    <td class="catHead" height="28"><span class="cattitle"><?php echo $lang['Topics']; ?></span></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td class="row1" align="left" width="100%">
      <span class="gensmall">
<?php for ($i = 0; $i < count($recent); $i++) { ?>
<?php echo create_date($board_config['default_dateformat'], $recent[$i]['post_time'], $board_config['board_timezone']); ?> 
<a href="<?php echo append_sid($phpbb_root_path . 'profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=' . $recent[$i]['user_id']); ?>">
<?php echo $recent[$i]['username']; ?></a><br />
<img src="<?php echo $phpbb_root_path; ?>templates/subSilver/images/icon_latest_reply.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle" /> 
<a href="<?php echo append_sid($phpbb_root_path . 'viewtopic.php?p=' . $recent[$i]['post_id'] . '#' . $recent[$i]['post_id']); ?>">
<b><?php echo $recent[$i]['topic_title']; ?><?php if ($recent[$i]['topic_trimmed']) { echo '...'; } ?></b></a><br />
<?php } ?>
      </span>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
<br />
<?php } ?>
<!-- RECENT -->

 

Can anyone help me make it so only the last 10 posts will be displayed please.

 

Thanks in advance

what is the value of the variable $recent

Nevermind everyone I figured this one out. To change the amount of posts that are viewed I had to edit the posts.php file in the mod directory. As for your question the $recent variable was as follows

 

<?php
$recent = phpbb_fetch_posts(null, FETCH_POSTS_LAST);
?>

 

Thanks for the quick response.

 

For anyone else who is trying to figure this out go into the phpbb_fetch_all directory and open the posts.php file. Next edit this line

 

<?php


$CFG['posts_limit'] = 10;


?>

 

This should be the first line of actual code on the page as everything else is commented (other than the <?php tag of course). I figured this one out by meself .. yay!!    I felt like an idiot in the end though ... the limit was already set to 10
