is there a script to create this?

Is there a script that will pull some of the most recent threads from a forum and create links to them (like on the seo guy index page) or does that have to be manually done?

there are RSS feeds you can put on your site. you just have to put the latest feeds through an RSS processor

Check out PHP-Nuke, they have a script that does exactly what you are saying. If you download the lastest version, the file you want will be in the blocks folder named forum.php or something to that effect. Although you don't run a nuke site, I'm sure that code will be 90% of the work.

I've always had success with freshmeat.net and I know they have RSS/RDF processors on the site. But you can basically do it yourself if you learn REGEXPS.

Put this in cron tab:

rm -rf rdf.xml; wget -q http://www.website.com/rdf.xml;

Grabbing it on the fly is a bad idea.
