XF 2.2 Widget in the forum view

[Lee]

Is it possible to create a "new posts" widget that only selects replies from the currently viewed widget for display or would that require custom development?

It doesn't appear possible unless I am missing something glaringly obvious.

I tried this some time ago and the solution I found (probably not the best) is to create one widget per forum concerned:

• Widget A that renders the content of forum A with a conditional statement that only displays it on forum A
• Widget B that renders the content of forum B with a conditional statement that only displays it on forum B
• Widget C that renders the content of forum C with a conditional statement that only displays it on forum C
• and so on...
