Recent Topics Block missing some things

[Moif]

Hi,

I'm in the process of upgrading my SMF and TP forums to the latest stable and beta versions respectively. However, I've noticed that my Recent Topics block on the front page doesn't have the poster name or time:

http://labs.brap.fm/index.php

How do I get that back so it's the same as my live site:

http://forums.brap.fm/index.php

Thanks

Looks like it does to me.. Although the horizontal rule has been omitted and the font size is a little different.

You're right, the text is there but from what I can see, on my live site, the fonts are all of a different style. Poster name is in bold, date is in square brackets with the today in bold and it's all nicely formatted.

On the labs site, it's all the same font, size and formatting and yep, no horizontal rule.

Is this a stylesheet issue?

[Zetan]

Nope.. it's the tportal.blocks.php file (I think.. at work and can't check). I'm not sure why it was changed, but I prefered it the way it was.

try having a search, somebody may have posted a fix for it.

[Moif]

Ah cool. I'll check the old php and make some comparisons.

Thanks

Fixed.

in TBlocks.template.php

Find (around line 171)

Code Select Expand


// Output the topics
echo '
<ul class="tp_recentblock" style="' , $context['TPortal']['recentboxscroll']==1 ? 'overflow: auto; height: 20ex;' : '' , '">';
foreach($what as $w){
echo '
<li style="overflow: auto;"><a href="'.$w['href'].'">'.$w['short_subject'].'</a> ', $txt[525], ' ', $w['poster']['link'];
if(!$w['new'])
echo ' <a href="'.$w['href'].'"><img src="'. $settings['images_url'].'/'.$context['user']['language'].'/new.gif" alt="new" /></a> ';

echo ' ['.$w['time'].']
</li>';
}
echo '
</ul>';
}


Replace with:

Code Select Expand


// Output the topics
$counter=1; $cmax=count($what);
echo '
<div style="width: 100%; ' , $context['TPortal']['recentboxscroll']==1 ? 'overflow: auto; height: 20ex;' : '' , '">';
foreach($what as $w){
echo '
<div class="smalltext"><a href="'.$w['href'].'">'.$w['short_subject'].'</a></div>
<div class="smalltext">', $txt[525], ' <b>', $w['poster']['link'], '</b></div>
<div class="smalltext">';
if(!$w['new'])
echo '<a href="'.$w['href'].'"><img border="0" src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/'.$context['user']['language'].'/new.gif" alt="new" /></a> ';

echo '['.$w['time'].']
</div>';

if($counter != $cmax)
echo '<hr />';
$counter++;
}
echo '
</div>';
}
