as long as you call that, should be fine…

Yes this has worked a charm, also i’ve done similar to the breadcrumbs, just wanted to remove the line breaks and add a couple of things…. are you guys going to add a widget to the forum like in the previous verson?

Thanks

widget is already there…  its in the template tags plugin…  heavily reconfigured with more options…

I missed that plugin, that’s handy. I actually already created a sidebar within the forum where I have placed the users logged in avatar, login buttons and all the buttons normally found on top of the forum. What template function would I use to call the latest discussion with avatars displayed? I have added sp_RecentPostsTag() but I don’t think that is the right one… it displays the latest topics just not the avatars. 

yes, sp_RecentPostsTag() is the right one… you have to pass the argument to include avatars…  until we have our online docs in place, just look at the file in the template tags library folder… the available args are listed there… see the itemOrder…

Is it possible for avatar’s to be animated .gif files?

I really dont know… never tried or asked before… but would guess it would work… give it a try and let us know…
