I wanted a pal that showed the latest files added to a specific forum. I'm using one board as a file archive, and I wanted to be able to list the latest files added to that archive.
This pal is quite versatile, you can use it as either one of the customboxpals by just setting the number in the variable at the top of the script. There are also a lot of other variables to edit: select which forums to grab files from, what info to show and in what order, what to sort by (date, downloads, rating etc) and whether to only grab files from main posts or from any posts. Each variable is described in full in the script.
Install instructions: Save this file over the first empty customboxXpal.php file and set the number you chose in the variable $custombox inside the script. After that you can go to the IIP configuration and select where this box should be shown. If you want you can also customize what info to show inside the script.
The pal is written for IIP 5.3 but works for 5.1 as well.
Updated Updated to 1.1 which contains some small bugfixes when having several forums.
