I’d like to change the profile page to look more like a blog, so I want to have the user’s info on the left and the topics that they’ve started listed down the right complete with text and a link to the topic to read the comments (replies). Right now I’m stuck on how to show the text of the topic post. Here’s what I’ve got so far:

<?php foreach ($threads as $topic) : ?>

<div class="post">

<h2 class="posttitle">

<a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a>

</h2>

<p class="postmeta"><?php printf(__('posted %s ago'), get_topic_start_time()); ?>

<div class="the_content">

<?php post_text(); ?>

</div>

</div>

<?php endforeach; ?>

but post_text() just returns the text of the first topic for all the topics, instead of each topic showing the text that it’s supposed to.

Thanks for any help…

(by topic, I mean the first post of a thread – just so we’re clear)

try this

<div class="the_content">

<?php $blogposts = get_thread( $topic->topic_id); ?>

<?php echo $blogposts[0]->post_text; ?>

</div>
