Show posts from your SMF fourm in your home/index page

SMF forum is quit popular open source forum application used by many websites as their main bulletin board. Some time we need to grab posts,topics from the board and show them on our home/index page or anywhere on our site. To make the things much easier, SMF provides all this in one script where we call a function with arguments and dress it up according to our needs. File is SSI.php and can be found in the root folder of the forum. You can also add extra parameters/piece of code to your SSI.php. In this post i will show you how to retrieve posts from SMF board with additional information like board, post author, date & time plus top poster and board statistics.

Clients and Us(Programmers and Freelancers)

One of my client sent me an email saying some useless words, in short was referring to that i should be available all the time for them, even if they don’t pay for it. It’s like i have nothing to do in the world except their project i have. I finished that project some time ago, but you know i still need to get my payment for the 2nd draft.
