   how do i loop through each forum to echo the latest topics for each one seperatly... rather than blast out the entire topics of every forum at once.

   I didn't find how to loop each category if there is such as thing, but I found this solution, its WORKS fine...

   <?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic) : ?>
   				<?php
   				$doof = $topic->forum_id;
   				if ($doof=="1") {
   				?>
   				<p><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a><?php topic_page_links(); ?></p>
   				<?php } ?>
   		<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

   Still a problem, becuase the above solution spits out all the topics and not only 3 as Required..

   can anyone help, on how to do a FOR loop for this, i dont get how the array $topics works?

   please help.

   • Initialize a variable as zero.
   • Increment it every time you display a topic (every iteration) if the value of variable is less than 3.
   • As soon as it grows >3, breaks out of the loop.

   if you know how to do this please, show me, <?php topic_title(); ?> seems as though it can only be used in a that foreach loop, i cant do a for loop and add ing <?php topic_title(); ?> inside of it.

   Although I havn't tested it but it should work:

   <ul>
   <?php
   $count=0;
   if ( $topics )
   {
   	foreach ( $topics as $topic)
   	{
   		$doof = $topic->forum_id;
   		if ($doof=="1")
   		{
   			if($count<3)
   				$count++;
   			else
   				break;
   ?>			<li><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a> | <?php topic_page_links(); ?></li>
   <?php	} } } ?>
   </ul>
