What mod is this please?

[Usijali]

Hello,

I've been trying to get the " recent topics" mods used on below mentioned forums for a while now with no success.

nairaland . com

upghana . com

These forums are based on SMF. However, the mods I've downloaded does not present recent topics like the above forums.

If you have any idea, please help me out with the name of the mods that does that.

Thank you.

neither of those use SMF.

Noted please.

Do you have any idea what mod I can use to achieve that recent topics presentation?

If I remember correctly, Nairaland was actually built on top of SMF, but what you see today I guess is not really SMF anymore. Anyhow, this mod comes to mind https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=3856 if you combine that with a portal you could get something similar perhaps with some tinkering.

Wow... another request for perhaps the worst implementation of SMF ever created...  nairaland was unusable 😉

Perhaps Nairaland is their own reddit with their own flow and rule but frankly I never understood it even though it has been referred so many times.

If you are really keen to have similar looks, why not use SMF SSI and create landing page for your forum with latest topics on front page.

What's a portal?

Something like TinyPortal, ezPortal or Light Portal for example. Something that helps you create an actual website around the forum.
