Adding graphics to the website...

Pixel error don't know I am head scratching like Drake and Sayontan.

Plugin recommendations you may be best asking at Wordpress.org.

3: I use the Mingle forum and there is just such a widget for that. If you want to change forum you could use that. You could also roll your own in a php widget area. It is what i did on one of my sites with wp-forum.

Thanks Colin, i really like the simple press forum though, was so easy to setup, im tempted to just purchase support, but to expensive, if it was 1 time fee, id do it.

And for the RSS i am looking for a plugin/widget that can handle this link for example: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/blizztracker/?page=1

Nevermind, i did another approach to it, used so it works now....

Is it possible to change color on the text, in different widgets under Sidebar 1 for example?

so this for example have a BLUE colored text? <h3 class="dbx-handle plain">Latest Blue Posts</h3>

I just put Feed widget into wordpress.org and got loads of results, maybe worth trying a few of those.

Below is the code that I used to pull the latest feed from wp-forum (not very elegant but it works). You may be able to use this as the starting point for what you want from Simple Press. BTW Mingle is dead easy to set up too.

Code: Select all

<?php
function truncate_string($details,$max)
{
    if(strlen($details)>$max)
    {
        $details = substr($details,0,$max);
        $i = strrpos($details," ");
        $details = substr($details,0,$i);
        $details = $details." ..... ";
    }
    return $details;
}

$result = mysql_query("SELECT subject, text FROM wp_forum_posts order by date DESC limit 1");

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "<b>". $row['subject']."</b>";
  echo "<br />";
     
$txt=stripslashes($row['text']);
$text = truncate_string($txt,310);
echo $text;
  echo "<br />";
  }



Hope this helps.
