    in phpBB bulletin board, how to show latest threads on the index.php page and latest posts on each subforum? I need to enable this because Google is missing lots of threads and nearly all later posts to existing threads.

    Thanks

    this looks useful, but i'd need the source code, not the code in the resulting page, I think?

    if your in IE click View > Source. and then copy the required coding and change the web address and where your phpbb is

    the source code shows the html that your php has created, not the php

    fairdoes asked me to pm him the code

    Use
    While ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){echo"frorum post link";}

    instead.

    Also instead of putting numbers alongside your code, use and ordered list to achieve the same effect without us having to delete it from your code.

    i think we need to show the different threads so that google can make you in a long time..

    What do you exactly mean getting your database onto your site? Do you mean in PHP, or just as html to show the public?

    Just set yourself up with a xml site-map and google will find your 'Hard too find' areas.....just a pointer that has been neglected to be told....=]

    Just a tip for you to be found, and have better SEO.....but with a phpbb forum you should be ok anyways!?!....but if you're not being listed by google, you might be considered being a spam site if you submit your site too much....be careful!

    PS what's your meta look like.....do you have a no follow?....but that wouldn't make sense!
