I have read a babillion posts on forums and done a gajillion google searches but cant seem to find an exact forums post block for what im looking for. Most of which seem to be for the built in phpbb (nuked) forums, but im currently using a stand-a-lone install of phpbb2.
Im so sorry for reposting if this exact scenario is already listed but after 2 days of looking through countless sites for something that I know will fit, I figured Ill post and hope that no one gets ticked if its there and i have overlooked it.
What I would like:
A block for php nuke that displays recent posts (center / side / whatever I can get) from a phpbb2 forum.
What I have:
I have a stand alone install of PHPBB2 (latest install) .. (url /forum)
I have 7.5 patched of PHPNuke
The nuke / and bb2 are installed in 2 different databases but the same sql server.
can this be done? Does anyone have a link to where I can get the block code? Im not new to computers ... I can handle some tweaking / editing but im not a programmer either, so the difficulty hopefully wont be tooo steep.
Thank you so much for your time in reading this and any direction / help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Nuke noober, but you only learn by doing
Part of your problem is that the block will query the config.php for the sql information but your phpbb2 forums do not have the same info as the main phpnuke so that would need to be fixed.
Also you will need to edit the locations it pulls the data from the phpbb db, e.g the posts in nuke are stored in the $prefix_posts db whereas phpbb is stored in the $prefix_posts (I believe, Im not too familiar with the phpbb db structure) but thats the easy part.
If you get stuck let us know and we'll see if we can help.
