Thanks
Jason

If the posts are in different subfolders then you can use a tree fetch like this:

{let LatestForums=fetch('content','tree',hash(
parent_node_id, node_id_of_forums_folder),
limit, 5,
class_filter_type, 'include',
class_filter_array, array('forum_class_name')))}

Regards,

Thanks James!

Note on a type (for anyone else that may try this) - this line:
node_id_of_forums_folder),

Should read (just drop the parenthesis):
node_id_of_forums_folder,

Cheers

Oh yeah, sorry I just copied and pasted it from a template I was working on at the time and modified it...
