SELECT 
  (SELECT date FROM forums WHERE topic_id=f.id OR id=f.id ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1) as last_reply, 
  f.*, p.id as pid, p.name FROM forums f 
      INNER JOIN players p ON p.id = f.author 
  WHERE f.topic_id=0 ORDER BY f.id DESC

In the subquery, I’d like to return not only the date field, but also the author field as well. how can I do this?

looked at a similar post but can’t apply it to mine.

    I would do it something like this: 

    SELECT 
  (SELECT date FROM forums WHERE topic_id=f.id OR id=f.id ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1) as last_reply,
  (SELECT author FROM forums WHERE topic_id=f.id OR id=f.id ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1) as last_author,
  f.*, p.id as pid, p.name FROM forums f 
      INNER JOIN players p ON p.id = f.author 
  WHERE f.topic_id=0 ORDER BY f.id DESC

    I would actually repeat the subquery again
