XF 1.5 How to show "recent/new posts" in sidebar?

[borgqueenx]

i want to create a sidebar on the forum wich shows the last 5 or 10 posts on the forum.
If possible, with html code to embed it.
Is this possible? if not with html, how is it possible?

i saw this add-on: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/recent-posts.3673/
but it says xenforo 1.5 has it build-in. i cant find it.

it doesnt show up in the sidebar. im afraid its because collision with a other add-on. is it possible to embed the new posts in html?

If you are using the WF add-on, you will need to post in the resource thread for support.

so there is no way to put html and show the new posts in that?
i am using xenporta 2, but support is kinda bad.

You will need to post in the xenporta2 add-on thread for support with it.

but i dont need the support if there is a way to embed that specific xenforo function in html. then i can make it myself show up ^^

If it is related to the forum index, there is a built in option for it.

If you are using the widget framework add-on, you need to post in the resource thread.

If it is related to the portal add-on home page, you need to post in the resource thread.

It's not a simple matter of embedding some HTML, it requires supporting PHP code.
