"recent topics" in SMF style

[RoarinRow]

try adding:

Code Select Expand


<td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" width="10%">
                                                ', $topic['replies']['link'], '
                                        </td>
<td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" width="10%">
                                                ', $topic['views']['link'], '
                                        </td>

in there. you may have to fiddle with the percents, and possibly find out what the function calls for replies and views actually are (though logic tells me they would be called just that)

I'll give it a try, thanks!

That didn't work unfortunately.  But I took what I had and put in your recommendations.  Anyone know how I can make this work?

Code Select Expand

// "Recent Topics" a php Block
// Prefered settings when being designed
// Border and title on
// Title ="Recent Topics"

global $scripturl;
$what=ssi_recentTopics('35', NULL, 'array');

echo '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" class="bordercolor">';
echo '<tr class="catbg3">
      <td valign="middle">Subject</td>
      <td valign="middle">Board</td>
      <td valign="middle">Poster</td>
      <td valign="middle">Replies</td>
      <td valign="middle">Views</td>
      <td valign="middle">Time</td></tr>';

foreach ($what as $topic)
  {
    echo '<tr><td class="windowbg" valign="middle">', $topic['link'];
    // Is this topic new? (assuming they are logged in!)
    if (!$topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged'])
      echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?topic=', $topic['topic'], '.from', $topic['time'], '#new"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/', $context['user']['language'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt[302], '" border="0" /></a>';
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['board']['link'], '</td>';
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['poster']['link'], '</td>;
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['replies']['link'], '</td>';
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['views']['link'], '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >';
      if ($settings['images_url'] != $settings['theme_url'] . '/images' || file_exists($settings['theme_dir'] . '/images/icons/last_post.gif'))
      echo '<a href="', $topic['href'], '"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/icons/last_post.gif" alt="', $txt[111], '" title="', $txt[111], '" border="0" style="float: right;" /></a>';
      echo '<span class="smalltext">', $topic['time'], '</span></td></tr>';
  }

echo '</table>';


This is what I have right now:

Code Select Expand

// "Recent Topics" a php Block
// Prefered settings when being designed
// Border and title on
// Title ="Recent Topics"

global $scripturl;
$what=ssi_recentTopics('25', NULL, 'array');

echo '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" class="bordercolor">';
echo '<tr class="catbg3"><td valign="middle">Subject</td><td valign="middle">Board</td><td valign="middle">Poster</td><td valign="middle">Time</td></tr>';

foreach ($what as $topic)
  {
    echo '<tr><td class="windowbg" valign="middle">', $topic['link'];
    // Is this topic new? (assuming they are logged in!)
    if (!$topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged'])
      echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?topic=', $topic['topic'], '.from', $topic['time'], '#new"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/', $context['user']['language'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt[302], '" border="0" /></a>';
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['board']['link'], '</td>';
      echo '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >', $topic['poster']['link'], '</td><td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" >';
      if ($settings['images_url'] != $settings['theme_url'] . '/images' || file_exists($settings['theme_dir'] . '/images/icons/last_post.gif'))
      echo '<a href="', $topic['href'], '"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/icons/last_post.gif" alt="', $txt[111], '" title="', $txt[111], '" border="0" style="float: right;" /></a>';
      echo '<span class="smalltext">', $topic['time'], '</span></td></tr>';
  }

echo '</table>';

Very nice code!  :up:

thanks x 10000000

create a PHP Center block under your TP admin 'Block Settings"

And then simply position it below the articles using the position boxes

[Techdomain]

position boxes?

[akulion]

u mean u dont have those with the cool flashing ajax java and flashing lights?

lol

I meant those little boxes in which you put the number for where to display a particular block

But I got mixed up with articles and blocks there ... sorry about that

[Techdomain]

ah... ok. thought there was something I was missing!

[k_4_kelly]

there's no an option for show 'Both Articles and Frontpage Blocks' in the general setting/frontpage/What to show on frontpage panel.

currently, my 'recent topics' block is in a PHP centre block, and it appear above the articles in the frontpage, i would like to move it under the articles not above.

Could anyone tell me how to do it?

thanks!!!!

[technodragon73]

I believe that option is what is in the next release of TP...you'll just have to wait.

[k_4_kelly]
