Latest X Posts in a templated Phorum-Page

This is a nice little add-on, but it had a security issue which I fixed by adding this after the initial includes:

if(!phorum_check_read_common()) {
return;
}

Got this error with latest CVS when trying to access newest10.php:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: phorum_db_read_newflags() in /home/virtual/site97/fst/var/www/html/phorum5/newest10.php on line 72

yeah, newflags have changed some days ago.

Updated version for working with current CVS (aka 5.0.8-dev).
It won't work with an earlier version!

(newer version in later post)

Ok, here it is ... another update done for 5.0.8-RC.
It uses the new internal function for retrieving new posts -> [phorum.org]

Also it works now if called with no forum-id or forum-id = 0 ... it retrieves posts from ALL forums in this case.

Updated version.
Now it shows in the view for all forums the forum-name and a link to the forum too.
Also the new-flags in that view are correct now (retrieving the newflags for all involved forums)

I upgraded to 5.0.8-RC and also updated to this new version. When clicking on the link I just get the header repeating several times and the web page locks up. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

No, try to remove your compiled templates or touch all of the ones in the default-template.
thats not related to that add-on as it doesn't mess in any way with the templates.

I cleared old files and re-uploaded the new files and it works now. When I call the newest10.php?0 to get the last 10 posts from all forums they all show up as new messages.

Thanks for your help.

Does anyone know how to hack this script, so that there are the latest x *unread* Posts shown only?

Would be great if anyone could help me!
