[2.0.20] Topic Description

[boater4life]

I only made two changes one was in viewforum_body.tpl here is what I changed. I took the red text out to install the mod and Then I put it back after the mod was installed.

<td class="row1" width="100%"><span class="topictitle">{topicrow.NEWEST_POST_IMG}{topicrow.TOPIC_ATTACHMENT_IMG}{topicrow.TOPIC_TYPE}<a href="{topicrow.U_VIEW_TOPIC}" class="topictitle">{topicrow.TOPIC_TITLE}</a></span><span class="gensmall"><br />
{topicrow.GOTO_PAGE}</span></td>

And the second was in posting php. Here I added the red then I removed it after the mod was installed.

submit_post($mode, $post_data, $return_message, $return_meta, $forum_id, $topic_id, $post_id, $poll_id, $topic_type, $bbcode_on, $html_on, $smilies_on, $attach_sig, $bbcode_uid, str_replace("\'", "''", $username), str_replace("\'", "''", $subject), str_replace("\'", "''", $message), str_replace("\'", "''", $poll_title), $poll_options, $poll_length):, $topic_calendar_time, $topic_calendar_duration);

Major issue (at least on my board).
For some reason, guests can include html tags in the topic description.
That also includes JAVASCRIPT!!!
Would be nice if I could limit this only to a few html tags, or to bbcode only!!!

I am not sure if this is occuring becuase I have other MOD's interfering with this.

BUMP.

Hello anyone?
This is a significant security risk. Any solutions?

I am very confused why you are adding and removing the code in red before and after you install the MOD...

The line you displayed above is missing some of the IN-LINE additions from this MOD. This is what it should look like:

Code: Select all

submit_post($mode, $post_data, $return_message, $return_meta, $forum_id, $topic_id, $post_id, $poll_id, $topic_type, $bbcode_on, $html_on, $smilies_on, $attach_sig, $bbcode_uid, str_replace("\'", "''", $username), str_replace("\'", "''", $subject),str_replace("\'", "''", $description), $desc4mod,str_replace("\'", "''", $message), str_replace("\'", "''", $poll_title), $poll_options, $poll_length, $topic_calendar_time, $topic_calendar_duration);

I'm surprised that you aren't seeing some error messages...

I agree...

how can I add this to the spilt topic option?

[odie3]

I just installed this MOD after un-installing a different TD MOD. I must say the admin options are a bit over the top but could be useful. Mainly I am glad you use language files [the other MOD author did not].

Also, this was pretty easy to add to my forums that have PCP and HC MODs install. I did have to make edits in functions_topics_list.php the but they all matched up very well. Also, had to make a edit for it to display in viewforum in topics_list_box.tpl [instead of viewforum_body.tpl].

BTW, what is the issue for Split Topics? I have that installed and it seems to still work... I can not add a TD when I am doing the spliting but big deal.

Thats what I mean't, I am just saying I would like that.

Can this be installed with easymod?

[NightriderXP]

Yes, this and all other MODs in the MOD Database can be installed using EasyMod...

In one of my forums (forum id 10 in fact) i have 23 topics posted. The first post of the topics range from 3-6 pages of text.

After installing this mod i noticed that that particular forum loaded VERY slowly.

I added the "time traker" mod and started setting breakpoints, i was able to narrow it down to the call to the show_tooltip function, 1.6 seconds!

I Changed it to:

Code: Select all

//DMdm Mod to hide the heritage forum from tooltips, since they slow rendering of the page
if ( !($forum_id = 10) ) {
   $topic_tool = ( show_tooltip ( $forum_id, $topic_id ) ) ? topic_tooltip ( $topic_id ) : '';
}

And now everything is okay, except of course you can't view the tooltips in that one forum, no biggie.

Wonder if there is anything else i should try, or do, or if this is just kinda expected.

Thanks

wow, I've finally reuploaded this thing (v1.11.17) dunno why it took me a month...

anyways,about the speed, yes that is kinda expected, you can fasten it up though by disabling the parsing in the ACP

I just added this mod to my Cobalt template and for the past 3hrs trying to figure out how to make it so the "Description" is right justified and same text size as the "Subject" above it.

Am I going to have to change a base file that will affect my other templates as well? Such as if I right justify it in a base file, and if I go back to say the subSilver template is it going to be right justified there too?

Need some help.

open the posting_body.tpl
search for the right lines, then just take the subject line and copy it and do the changes needed for it to be a description line, should work

[NightriderXP]

Dixit, try this:

Code: Select all

#
#-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------------
#
templates/cobalt20/posting_body.tpl

#
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------------
#

<td class="row1" width="22%"><span class="gen"><b>{L_DESCRIPTION}</b></span></td>

#
#-----[ REPLACE WITH ]------------------------------------------------
#

<td class="row1" width="22%" align="right"><span class="genmed"><b>{L_DESCRIPTION}</b></span></td>

Hello.

I'm not sure if this has been addressed yet or not, but even if I select that anyone can post a description, it still says, "Moderators Only...." Also, the subject description appears regardless if the box is checked or not.
