At the bottom, there is a recent posts box. I want to know how to get one like that. Does anyone know?

Also, how do you make it so that you need a certain number of posts in a board?

Do you mean View the Most Recent Posts on The Forum link? That should be on every forum by default. ;)

For that you need to create membergroup based on posts, then give them access to that membergroup.

See the 2 guides here:
Admin CP Boards Section

Admin CP Membergroups Section

At the very bottom of a forum, just above the info center.

Andrew, he wants to know how to enable the "recent posts" box. The one like the bottom of the support forum that has all the links to posts like:

TOPIC SUBJECT - Person who last posted.

To enable it, it is located in Admin > Current Theme.

You'll see a setting that "show recent posts []", if the value is at '0', it will show none. Simply alter this to '5' or so.
