I want to add a New User block to my site, but I am new to both PHP and Geeklog and am unsure how to do this. I found the PHP for it in another post (shown below) So, where do I put it? And how do I call the function from the new block? Thanks function phpblock_whos_new() { global $_CONF,$_TABLES; // Set the number of new members to show $numToShow = 5; $result = DB_query(\"SELECT uid,username,photo FROM ORDER BY regdate DESC limit $numToShow\"; $nrows = DB_numRows($result); for ($i = 1; $i \' . $A[\'username\'] . \'\'; if (!empty($A[\'photo\']) AND $_CONF[\'allow_user_photo\'] == 1) { $retval .= \' \'; } $retval .= \'
\'; } return $retval; }

The functions goes into your lib-custom.php file. To call it, create a new block of type "PHP block" and enter the name of your function as the block function.

You may want to look at first installing a small contributed block like this one here This will get you familiar with adding a custom PHP block and not worry about your PHP code. With respect to the code you posted, I don\'t believe (unless this was not the actual code) it will do as you want or even display anything Rolling Eyes
