what this means is use the forum NUMBER not the name

Code: Select all

http://ironmog.org/viewtopic.php?f=2
at the end of your link there is the forum number

Code: Select all

f=2
so inside your portal options in the news section you would put

Code: Select all

2
to only display news from that forum

if you wanted to add more forum's to the news you would add

Code: Select all

2,NUMBER,NUMBER
and so on
