How do i change a code below to display 5 newest members in my portal? Thanks

Dim Forum_Count
Dim NewMember_Name, NewMember_Id, Member_Count
Dim LastPostDate, LastPostLink

Forum_Count = intForumCount
'## Forum_SQL - Get newest membername and id from DB

strSql = "SELECT M_NAME, MEMBER_ID FROM " & strMemberTablePrefix & "MEMBERS " &_
" WHERE M_STATUS = 1 AND MEMBER_ID > 1 " &_
" ORDER BY MEMBER_ID desc;"

set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs.open TopSQL(strSql,1), my_Conn

if not rs.EOF then
NewMember_Name = chkString(rs("M_NAME"), "display")
NewMember_Id = rs("MEMBER_ID")
else
NewMember_Name = ""
end if

rs.close
set rs = nothing

if NewMember_Name <> "" then
Response.Write " <tr>" & vbNewline & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ colspan=""" & sGetColspan(6,5) &_
""">" & _
"<font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """ color=""" & strForumFontColor & """>welcome & _
"<span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(NewMember_Name,NewMember_Id) & "</span>.</font></td>" & vbNewline & _
" </tr>" & vbNewline
end if

This should work in Access / MS SQL:

strSql = "SELECT Top 5   M_NAME, MEMBER_ID FROM " & strMemberTablePrefix & "MEMBERS " &_
" WHERE M_STATUS = 1 AND MEMBER_ID > 1 " &_
" ORDER BY MEMBER_ID desc;"


This should work in MySQL:
strSql = "SELECT M_NAME, MEMBER_ID FROM " & strMemberTablePrefix & "MEMBERS " &_
" WHERE M_STATUS = 1 AND MEMBER_ID > 1 " &_
" ORDER BY MEMBER_ID desc Limit 5;"

Why don't you use the TopSQL function provided by Snitz itself? You can find it in inc_fuinc_common, and it performs the appropriate changes for each database.

It's declared as:

Function TopSQL(strSQL, lngRecords)

Edit: I just saw the code you posted above. So, in order to show 5 members, change the digit inside the TopSQL function from 1 to 5, like this:
rs.open TopSQL(strSql,5), my_Conn

i changed TopSQL to 5 like this: but it still showing up only one member. Anyone know how to fix it.

'## Forum_SQL - Get newest membername and id from DB

strSql = "SELECT M_NAME, MEMBER_ID FROM " & strMemberTablePrefix & "MEMBERS " &_
" WHERE M_STATUS = 1 AND MEMBER_ID > 1 " &_
" ORDER BY MEMBER_ID desc;"


set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
iTopNewNum = 5
rs.open TopSQL(strSql,iTopNewNum), my_Conn

if not rs.EOF then
NewMember_Name = chkString(rs("M_NAME"), "display")
NewMember_Id = rs("MEMBER_ID")
else
NewMember_Name = ""
end if

rs.close
set rs = nothing

if NewMember_Name <> "" then
Response.Write " <tr>" & vbNewline & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ colspan=""" & sGetColspan(6,5) &_
""">" & _
"<font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """ color=""" & strForumFontColor & """>welcome: " & _
"<span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(NewMember_Name,NewMember_Id) & "</span>.</font></td>" & vbNewline & _
" </tr>" & vbNewline
end if

Hi, pokemon.

I have reviewed it, and is happening because of how the code is written. No matter how many records you retrieve from the database, the code afterwards just reads the first one, close the records, and print that single one.

I am not an expert in ASP, but I think that in order to change it, you could do the following: enclose the if.. end if statements inside a do...while loop, and close the recordset outside the loop:


do
if not rs.EOF
   NewMember_Name = chkString(rs("M_NAME"), "display")
   NewMember_Id = rs("MEMBER_ID")
   rs.movenext
else
   'NewMember_Name = ""
   exit do
end if

if NewMember_Name <> "" then 
Response.Write " <tr>" & vbNewline & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ colspan=""" & sGetColspan(6,5) &_
""">" & _
"<font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """ color=""" & strForumFontColor & """>welcome: " & _
"<span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(NewMember_Name,NewMember_Id) & "</span>.</font></td>" & vbNewline & _
" </tr>" & vbNewline
end if
while not rs.EOF

rs.close
set rs = nothing


Make a backup of your files before trying these changes, OK?

Tell me if this has worked...

Best Regards
