The Forum has been Updated
The code has been upgraded to the latest .NET core version. Please check instructions in the Community Announcements about migrating your account.
I know this has been asked many times, but there has never an answer that seems to work. Has anyone ever successfully been able to show complete posts outside of the forum? I want certain topics and all of their posts to show up on other pages in my site. I've used the mod that allows it to show the latest topics, but that is not what I am looking for.<

To be honest, I've just been building the sites around the forum. It simplifies a lot. 
default.asp gets changed to forum_home.asp (links get updated), and all my pages use inc_header.asp, I use a lot of the functions built in to Snitz, and the site just grows around the forum. Even if the Forum isn't central, it makes a dandy CMS.<

I appreciate your advice. However, I already have my regular site made and it is pretty extensive.
What I am trying to do is have posts from a particular topic appear on some of my main pages outside of the forum. It would sort of work like a feedback section of the page. Whatever they wrote in the forum under a particular topic would instantly also appear on the other page. Did that make sense?

That did make sense, and I kinda figured that was the situation you were in now. I'm just not sure of the best way to handle what you want.
One option would be to look at the syndication MOD and use it as a template for pulling content. I've done that with some internal apps here at the hospital. All they need is to include a <script> with a properly formatted URL and it pulls the next x classes from my system to a sidebar on their page. I'm not overly fond of sending some js to run on thier page, but it works.
I'd also looked at building a Flash app that talked to a script that fed it some XML... but seeing my Flash skills are more along the "simple animation" lines, that never got very far.
Edit: Another option would be to re-write the RSS MOD to supply full posts and just have a built-in reader that was "subscribed" to that forum/topic/whatever.... I'd need to mull over that idea a little more...<

I have the syndication mod installed and it works fine for what it does. Here is the script that it generates for me:I'm not sure how to tweak it to pull posts from particular topics. It uses information from a syndicate.asp page I think.<
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mangionemagic.com/forum/syndicate.asp?method=last_post&results=10&cid=1&lp=y&jp=y&tt=y"></script>

For the internal app, I made a copy of syndicate.asp and had adjusted it for my needs. That may be the best way for you to go as well. Once you open up syndicate.asp you'll see that its not that hard to see whats going on in the code.<
