CMS Forum and CMSrepeater control
Is it possible to repeat the top three 'topics' on my forum and display them on the home page? Would I follow the same concept that is shown in the Developer's Guide?

SelectNodesClassName: cms.news
SelectNodesMaxRelative: -1
SelectNodesOrderBy: NewsReleaseDate DESC
SelectNodesPath: /news/%
SelectNodesPathType: AliasPath
SelectedItemTransformationName: cms.news.default
TransformationName: cms.news.preview

Would I have to create a new Transformation for the forum? I am not exactly sure where to start. I appreciate your help.

Thanks,
forrester

Hello,

unfortunately, the forum posts are not a standard document under Kentico CMS, so you will need to use the standard ASP.NET repeater and an SQL query to display the forums "top 3" topics.
