XF 1.2 recent posts, not in sidebar

[leemy]

I don't have many forum categories, so the main part of my site is all above the fold while the sidebar extends well below the fold. It makes for a lobsided UX.

In addition, my current implementation on SMF has the last X (in my case 15) recent posts in a grid underneath the listing of forums, similar to http://xenforo.com/community/find-new/4812994/posts

This is really helpful to get a snapshot of forum activity, without drilling into each little forum. Is this possible with XF stock or addon? Thanks

It requires an add-on.

A lot of people use the widget framework but I don't know if it can do that so you will need to ask in the resource thread.

I use the widget framework but it can only set its priority in the sidebar, it seems.
