Hi - Well these days I carry a blackberry as do many others and using RSS just makes sense!
I installed the gelliott MoD some time ago. It works pretty good, BUT I want to display more than just the first post to a topic, I want to at the very least show the most recent post, and ultimately it would be great to see all the posts or even better just the new posts since the user last looked.
Anyone got that working? Or have a bit of time to fine tune what I have, I know that gelliott promised to finalize this thing but then he unfortunately moved on and I never heard back.
My old and last search for a resolution was in this topic http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=56247&whichpage=7

The RSS file I have was made to work much better for private forums like I have, by Gelliott and help also from Marcel, like I said its awesome, except it just needs to have the functionality to have the last post in the thread not the original.

I think I have the section narrowed down. IE I want to display the last post in my RSS not the First post. The piece of code i think is this from line 177:
Bolded in red I think is the piece that pulls the first message? Any help to figure out the code to pull the last message is greatly appreciated?
Code:
if Topic_Replies > 0 then
Body = "There are " & Topic_Replies & " replies, with the last one on " & chkDate(Topic_Last_Post," at",true) & " by " & Topic_Last_Post_Author
Body = Body & vbNewLine & "Quote:" & vbNewLine & allActiveTopics(fT_MESSAGE,RowCount)

'Body = "This is a new topic posted on " & chkDate(Topic_Last_Post," at",true) & " by " & Topic_Last_Post_Author
end if

Could someone point me to the code to draw out the last message in a thread, I will try and figure it out.
I beleive the code to pull the first message is:
allActiveTopics(fT_MESSAGE,RowCount)
I beleive the code to pull the first message is:
allActiveTopics(fT_MESSAGE,RowCount)

Anyone?

I don't think that's correct, Niteowl. From the way the code reads,
Code:
For the LAST topic (the only time it will give you the first topic is if there is only one new topic):
allActiveTopics(fT_MESSAGE,RowCount)
For the FIRST topic:
allActiveTopics(fT_MESSAGE,0)
