This mod is a combination of the current version of active.asp and the recent topics mod, by Aznknight.

Please excuse the demos - there won't be a lot of topics shown since that forum is still in development.

Demo for Active Topics:
http://www.writermag.com/forum/active.asp

Demo for Recent Topics:
http://www.writermag.com/forum/active.asp?view=recent

Download:
http://www.execpc.com/~literati/devforum/mods/active_drv.zip

It's pretty easy to install. Unzip and replace your existing active.asp file. PLEASE save your current copy of active.asp in case this one isn't compatible. It should be fine with Access and MS SQL Server, but I have no idea about mySQL.

One additional note. At Line 55, you'll see the following code:

' The following variable allows you the option to turn on or off
' the refresh functionality
' 0 - Off/Hide | 1 - On/Show
dim intAllowRefresh : intAllowRefresh = 1


This code allows you the choice to hide/show the refresh drop down box. I've chosen to disable it on my site, due to the fact that I don't want people displaying all active topics for the past month w/ refresh set to every minute.

The default is set to 1 - which means the refresh will display. Set it to 0 to turn it off.

If you've used the active.asp and recent.asp, then this should be pretty familiar. You can modify the listboxes to suit your needs, same as you could in the previous active.asp file.

Oh, the jump-to list box at the bottom will have to be right aligned. It's very late and I didn't have time to put that back.

hmm work_mule,

You applied the mod to your version of active.asp huh? I noticed the layout changes as well as bookmark mod. Maybe it would be better to apply this to the active.asp from the snitz31sr4 zip. It'll be more usable that way.

It works fine for me, but it leaves one of my forums out of the list for some reason.

No errors given, but one just doesnt show up, even if I go to show all topics.

Yes, I should have applied it directly to an original file, although I thought I did. Oops.

I don't think I'll have time to make changes because I'm going to have to work very hard to beat you out for the Forum Award. Hehe...

Hmm...layout changes? Anything in particular you can point out? Off the top of my head I can't really think of what it possibly could be. As far as the bookmark mod, maybe I could setup a variable/flag that could be modified by the user if they have that mod installed or not. I mean it's just a matter of hiding that option in the drop down box and then also not making it possible to run that SQL code, so run a default instead (just in case). I'd really hate to have a bunch of versions running around out there.

Oh cool!! You've tried it out!

Let me ask you this question...
The forum that it leaves out, is it different by any chance? Such as a private forum or something? At the moment, I can't think of why that would happen. Honestly, I'll have to think about this one.

No private forums on my board, actually the forum it leaves out is the most active one I have.

I havent dug into it at all yet, I put the original active.asp back in for now until I can figure out whats up. Going to mess with it today. Its probably something about my board, not sure yet.

Actually, if you applied this to a modded version of active.asp that may be my problem.

I have edited mine a touch, but I may not have the same mods installed in my forum as you do.

Hey

I've installed this and it works well. Just need to install the bookmarking mod now.

Gotta say, as it's my first post, what a bloody good job you all do.

Cheers guys.
