Recent Topics on Non-VB Pages W/ vbSEO URL's

Figured some people might be interested in this so I'll post this here also.

DESCRIPTION
This script will display the topics with the most recent posts on a non-vb page (any HTML page). The page it's on must have a .php extension or you should setup apache to parse the page correctly. The threads with the latest posts are on top. The output is a clean list in this format:

Customizable options include:
* forum ID - choose to only include or exclude certain forums
* number of topics displayed
* CSS class names for the topic name/url and last poster/date
* and a few others

Here's the vbulletin.org link: LBmtb's Recent Topics on Non-VB Pages (vbSEO edition) - vBulletin.org Forum

Let me know if it can use improvement or bug fixing.

Hi,

nice made, but you have could done this also without any scripting trough the rss system of vbulletin. That way i have made it on my own site. Only need is to turn on your rss feeds.

That's how I had it before. But there were two things I didn't like. It wasn't real time since RSS is cached for a bit and RSS returned recent threads without regard to which one was replied to last. The RSS thing would make more sense on a huge forum. My forums get maybe 150 posts/day so this script gives me the threads that were REPLIED to last and there's no lag in the data.

Ok
