Recent topics not as widget

Hello...
Is it possible to make recent topics list,but not as a widget on the side?
I would like to place something like this https://help.forumotion.com/t129060-widget-recent-topics-of-a-specific-sub-forum in the Homepage message,or in the Announcements... ? 
If someone underestands me,  ,please tell me if it is possible.My forum is phpbb2.
Thanks.

you can try this

http://fmdesign.forumotion.com/t229-add-news-topics-from-multiple-forums#1207

just use

Code:

newsWidget('specialp', 0, 3, 413);

changing the topic to 0 shows all recent topics not just the 1 topic u specify
you can set the 3 to how many topics u want to see
and 413 to whatever

and wherever you want to place it just write

Code:

<div id="specialp"></div>
