Hi
Is it possible to post the title and link to the last 10 (or whatever) posts on a non vBulletin page?

For an example of what I mean please see this page http://www.newtotown.ie the 'Latest Postings' are generated from a piece of javascript that reads the last 'x' postings in the forum and displays them on the homepage of the site. Can vBulletin do this?

You could use the RSS Feed feature of vBulletin to do so.

Thank you, is there an example of this working?
