What must I do.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have it enabled to be user configurable or board wide? If user config did you turn it on in the UCP? I also noticed you only have one post and topic. Have you tried making other posts and see if it works then? Do you have an opcode cache like memcached or eAccelerator running (probably not but worth asking)? Do you have any other mods installed which also user the "user_options" database field?

Actually you alter the your viewforum_body and search_results template to put the text in a title tag if that is what you wanted to do. Being a geek who cares about valid XHTML Strict you should be able to figure out how to do this.

Replace with:

That is all.
Hey garvin i just tried to do that, but in functions_user i found only 1919 insted of 895.

What am i supposed to do to enable topic preview by default for all new users?

Use 3967.

Problem is fixed. It was never really a problem. I hadn't enabled it in my UCP. Thanks.

Has anyone ever found a way of avoiding the flicker problem in IE?

I like this mod but have two questions. Tha preview background is very dark and the font color also it is somwhat hard to read the preview sometimes. Have to look really close. Is there somwhere I can change the background colour an font colours for the prevew.

Also. When I put my mousecursor over the topic headline the preview lies all over the link and that makes it not clickable. I have to point the cursor right under the topic headline so that the preview wont cover it. Is it possible to change that? So that the preview always shows up right under or next to the headline no matter where I put my cursor?

Good Mod!
No update needed at this time? And How long I can use final version? I love this mod!

In \root\styles\prosilver\template\topic_preview.html you can change everything you want.

I'm still working on it. It's been much tougher then I thought.

Hi guys,

I have installed this mod, and it works in the forums but if you click onto the Catagory headers it then gives errors as listed below.

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

[0]

SQL

No values specified for SQL IN comparison

BACKTRACE

FILE: includes/db/dbal.php
LINE: 385
CALL: dbal_mysql->sql_error()

FILE: includes/functions_topic_preview.php
LINE: 50
CALL: dbal_mysql->sql_in_set()

FILE: viewforum.php
LINE: 599
CALL: topicpreview->get_preview_text()

Now to give more information, I am using X-Treme_Skin_v3.2__phpBB3_v.3.0.1 for the MAIN forum and the other 2 X-Treme styles, I.E. for the admin and MODS lounges respectively. Green style for MODS and red for ADMINS lounge.

I am hosted by Bluehost.

I have numerous addons including: -

Advanced quick reply
Manage groups order
Donation mod - created through PAYPAL themselves.
Primelink mod
Top posters
A scrolling marquee added by myself
NOTE: all of the above MODS work perfectly and it seems to be this latest edition that has thrown things into chaos.

On instalation I updated all three styles of X-Treme in the same fashion, and the fact that they work correctly except for the Catagory button, is the reason I am posting, the forum headers on my forum are not even set for posting, they are just index's of what's actually in the catagory.

If you simply click on the individual forums in the index, there is no problem and the MOD itself works correctly, it is only when the Catagory header is depresed.

I really like this MOD so I would rather fix the prob than use theback-ups and uninstall it, maybe this is good info for the DEV team.

My site is listed here: -

Code: Select all

Thankyou for your assistance and time.

And regard to all

Pete

J.o.h is correct. To answer your second question yes, it could be made to do that. It''s not a simple thing to do though. Because of the different ways the browsers calculate the position of elements and because IE does not make the value of "this" refer to the trigger element in an event fires function it would make for more then a few lines on code. It's like to get this flicker thing smashed first.

Are you the same person that posted on my forum?

Topic Preview should not be invoked when you view a category. When I viewed your board I noticed there is an "Active topics list" that shows up on the index and when I clicked on a category. This is via a mod is it not? I think this may be causing your problem. Do you know which mod is providing this functionality? Can you post up your viewforum.php?

I am the actual owner and the person who did the upgrade, he is my chief admin, but I have been on nightshift so I asked him to look into it.

I am sorry if this caused any fuss.

I will get the actual mod for you and show you, it was from here as well, a I do all my upgrades from this great forum, 1 minute please.
