Show forum stats on another page

[Courage]

Hi webflakers.

 

I have my forum on domain.com/forum and a simple index.html page on domain.com

 

How can I add to index.html the forum stats? (total members , posts, etc)

 

In other words, I would like to show stuff from globalTemplate or boardIndexTemplate on another page.

Easiest way would be to use a portal or content.

 

If you don't want to do that and have no programming experience try using

Uhm, I would like to make it like here: https://rstforums.com/ (and the forum is here: https://rstforums.com/forum/ )

uportal, ip.portal and ip.content could all recreate that.

 

In the older versions of ipbwilki it could easily interface the IPB forums and get the data for you. So you could take some time and try that.

 

Otherwise you would have to write a php that would interface with IPB and call the stats function.

You can always import tables etc.. using PHP and then use a code something like this to display the results:

 

<?php while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { ?>
                    
                        <li>
                            <a href="/forums/index.php?showtopic=<?= $row["tid"] ?>" title="<?= $row["title"] ?>"><?= $row["title"] ?></a>
                            
                            <?php
                            
                                $indexed = $row["last_post"];
                                $realtime = strftime("%e %b", $indexed);                             
                            
                            ?>
                            
                            <date>Last post by <?= $row["last_poster_name"] ?> at <?= $realtime ?></date>
                        </li>
                    
                    <?php } ?>
