How to use ssi.php to display news from your forum on your portal homepage

Note: this code is specifically for use with the "ssiplus" IPB mod but you can use the same basic idea for the default IPB ssi.php. I'm using this block on my portal homepage.

1) Create a new block.

2) Use this code for your block. Of course you need to change the URL and the ssi features that you want to use in my code.

<?php 

$content=implode("", file("http://www.yoursite.com/mkportal/forums/ssi.php?m=posts&a=forumtopics&forum=4&order=date&start=0&show=5"));

?>

3) Activate and position your block

That should work.
