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.
continuing what I said in this topic about the "Show how many messages since yours" here is the Finished MOD that you can start use...
How to use it It's really simple, the MOD will build a table with Rows and Columns that you can specified in the 2 variables, the TOP messages displayed will be the multiplication of those 2 values, so if you specify 2 rows by 5 cols you will get the Top 10 messages in the forum, if you select 4 rows by 5 cols you will get the Top 20 messages in the forum.
There are more variables that you can play with, and the right translation as well using the Session.LCID variable in ASP.
How to get it check it here to see the code
save as inc_topMessages.asp and just place the include where you need it like
How can I test it you have this direct link that, by default shows you 2 rows by 5 columns, to use with more variations, I changed the code so you can use the query to pass how many rows and how many columns you want to be displayed...
so, instead of http://ga-paneuropean.com/gape.v2/test_topMessages.asp you can add ?rows=4&cols=2 to be like http://ga-paneuropean.com/gape.v2/test_topMessages.asp?rows=4&cols=2 so it will show you 4 rows by 2 columns.
Hope you like the MOD.

balexandre,
Thanks for your sharing code. Everything is good, however I would like to suggest:
1. Bring the "Topic name" to top of cell and use bigger font/Bold..., because this is the most important part. 2. Bring item "by User...date...time" to middle position, and use normal font size. Move "date...time" follow to the right of "User" to save a line. 3. Modify the topic link (Topic name) so that it will jump to the last page of the thread. Currently it just jump to the first page.
Thanks.<

Target_Locked:
1. Topics kind to be really big, so I did not added as Big Text to save space, dont forget that this was originaly just for my forum and I use 10 rows by 1 columns
2. this is merelly layout, you can fix the code for that
3. I dont know if you saw it, but there is the same ICON that is used in the forum to jump to last message of the topic, the blue arrow... that one will jump to the last message while the topic name will jump to the first message of the topic, just like any topic in the forum, so you have both links

What would need to be done in this code to prevent previews of posts in private and password protected forums from showing up in the table?
Thanks for any help!<
