help to change the "normal" block "recent topics"

[dan4ever]

hi

Where can I change the built in block "recent topics".
I want the user how posted not bold text and the topic bold instead.
And if you klick on the avatar I will come to the post, not the profil!!!!!

And maybe lite text from the post too if its possible.

If you want to change the layout of the standard recent topics you will have to edit this file: TPsubs.template.php

Look for the section that starts with:
// blocktype 12: Recent Topics

[dan4ever]

or maybe ask if I can use an "php-box" I used with my last portal?
But it's not working just like that, somebody have to look into the code and fix a little, I think.
I post it here and say what u think:

Code Select Expand

Of course, a php block can be used , but that's not what you asked for...

No, you're so right
I started by asking for a "Facebook-flow", and now this...
I'm never satisfied until perfection 

And later on maybe some mod to the "Recent posts"

What's not working with the php block you posted? It should work as before as it's not using any custom calls from a portal by what I can see.

[lurkalot]

Works for me. Although you will have to remove the php tags from the start and end of the code for it to work.

Code Select Expand

<?php

and

Code Select Expand

?>

[dan4ever]

So simple, Thanks a lot!!!!

The member with no profil Picture(avatar) have a broken picture. (if u understand me?)
aren't there a "default"-avatar ??

/Dan

[tino]

The &quote is an entity decoding issue. Does it do it using the built in TinyPortal Recent posts? If it doesn't then you'll have to look at what that's doing for the entities.

The missing avatar will be the link, you probably have errors in the logs? If so you need to check they exist first if not go to the default one.

No error in logs. 
But found this in "java-consul":
<img src="" alt="" width="40px" height="40px">

But if I go into the forum and look at the same member, java-consul says:
<span class="no_avatar Nybörjare">G</span>
And "Nybörjare" are a group a made like "newbie"

But does SMF have a default pic for a member?
$modSettings['avatar_url'] is empty
/Dan

[@rjen]

No, SMF2.0 does NOT, so if you want a default to show, you will need to code that yourself in the block. From what I am seeing your block code does not make that exception, so it tries to show an avatar every time...

I do not have the code you need available, so you will have to try it out yourself...
