Center Block Articlebox "jumps" to top when viewed with a forum board

[Bryan]

Using a Center block articlebox that’s set to “Show when inside this board”, I’m having the following problem.  When you click on a board topic below the articlebox, the new page opens at the top of the articlebox instead of at the top of the topic, requiring the user to scroll back down to view the first post in the topic.  Is there a way to change this?  I’m using the DilberMC theme for TP.

Not much you can do about that. The page loads to the top based on the template files.

Is there a way to have the Center Block articlebox show only when the board topic list is displayed but not when a topic is open?

[IchBin]

That is not available as a setting in TP, but you could use some custom code. If you'd like to do that let me know and I'll type up some code for you.

Thanks IchBin,

I'm not in a big hurry to figure this out, so I'll try to mess with it a bit to see if I can make it work.  I'll yelp if I need more help.

Any chance you know what template file puts the article the thread?  Extra kudos for linenumbers!

[IchBin]

Sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking. Could you be a bit more specific?

[Bryan]

The Center Block articlebox displays as desired in the board I’ve specified in the topic list view:      /index.php/board,24.0.html

It also displays when you open a topic (undesirable):      /index.php/topic,96.0.html

Which file(s) controls this behavior?

[IchBin]

There are multiple files that keep this stuff together. Thats why I didn't give you the code to add the option. Also, why I said you can do it with custom code. Not much you can do about it at this time except to use some custom php code. All the stuff you're looking for exists in the TPortal files.
