...put up a toplist on the main page of my site? Can someone tell me the code I should use? Thanks!

The toplist syntax itself is simple (you must place a file called yourtoplistname.tpl in the sloth_toplist/ directory). For simplicity, lets call it toplist.tpl (Sloth generates the html page to include from this template)

<li>%TRADELINK1%</li>
<li>%TRADELINK2%</li>
<li>%TRADELINK3%</li>
etc...

To include it:

php
<?php include("sloth_toplist/toplist.html"); ?>
ssi


edit: don't forget to login to your admin and tell it what your toplist name is (you'll see some existing ones called toplist1 and toplist2) but do NOT include the .tpl extension.

What am I doing wrong? I used the php include to put it on the main page but nothing shows up.
