Hello. Sorry if this has already been asked, but I did use the search and could not find anything.

I have installed the classifieds MOD (1.2 I think). On classifieds.asp it shows, among other things, the 15 latest entries. Is there any way to show this info on default.asp? Most of my members do not look at the classifieds often because there is no way to tell when new ones have been posted. Another alternative would be to show links to new postings in the active topics page.

Does anyone know how to do either one of these things, or a better way to accomplish the same goal? Thanks.

Woo Hoo...I figured it out for myself. Just in case anyone else is wondering, I created a file (inc_classifieds.asp). I "stole" the code from classifieds.asp that shows the categories and number of ad in parenthesis. I then added <!--#include file="inc_classifieds.asp"--> around line 590 in default.asp (right above <!--#include file="inc_activeusers.asp"-->). This puts the table at the bottom of the forum list.

Here is a link to the txt file for inc_classifieds.asp: http://www.scbbqtalk.com/inc_classifieds.txt

And if you want to see what it looks like, http://www.scbbqtalk.com Scroll to the bottom to see.

Please do not make comments on the look of the board. I have not changed the default colors yet, but I will.

Way to go! =) This is how I do and I've done quite a few things for my site. Steal some code here and some code there then mix it and see what happen =)

Thanks tribaliztic. I am pretty new to ASP, and am not a programmer by any stretch of the imagination. But I do like to learn, and Snitz has provided that opportunity to me. I already know A LOT more about ASP than I did when I started.

Have you looked at www.sportsfish.com.au and also in the forum at www.sportsfish.com.au/forum you will notice a few changes to the way we present the classifieds there. I have also added Admin approval for them as the commercial advertisers thought that they could place adds.


Cheers,

I like the front page. What portal are you using?

Own made portal from a mix from myself (all Snitz intergration) and another person for the non-Snitz stuff.

Cheers,
