I think it's a problem with your host (server time out). The search for last 100 contributions is too long and the servers breaks off. Test it on my Site. Run without Problems.

Hi @all .....

..... thanks for the Feedback

New Version (0.5) in the First Post !
Fixed a small bug in the Template Configuration Preview.

Screenshot before Modification:

Screenshot after Modification:

If you don't want to re-install the Mod open the File ManageTemplate.pl in the Admin Folder and

search for:

Code:

	my $temprecentposts = qq~$boardindex_txt{'791'} $boardindex_txt{'792'} $boardindex_txt{'793'}~;

and replace it with this:

Code:

	my $tempmostrecentposts = qq~$boardindex_txt{'791'} <select style="font-size: 7pt; font-family: Verdana"><option>---</option></select> $boardindex_txt{'794'}~;

search for:

Code:

	$boardindex_template =~ s/({|<)yabb recentposts(}|>)/$temprecentposts/g;

and replace it with this:

Code:

	$boardindex_template =~ s/({|<)yabb mostrecentposts(}|>)/$tempmostrecentposts/g;

I'm not sure if i understand this right. You wish a option in the admin centre to select the recent post's or what do you mean ?

... yes, i fix the mod steps for my yabb 2.2.1, but i have no permission from xonder to release that. I'm sorry.
