One of the key reasons we upgraded to 7.3 was to be able to show the forum name in the Recent Topics box.

How do we add this in? I made some guesses as to field names, but I haven't guessed right.

Thanks!

Oh I thought this was a simple thing? We've been talking about this for months and months and I thought this was always said to be something that 7.3 would allow. This is the #1 main reason I pushed to get 7.3 as soon as humanly possible and upgraded the moment it was available.

So is this not a one second change?

I see that post_island.tpl holds the template for that 'latest messages' area. Any hints on where the SQL that fills in those field choices is?
