IF variable for forum id?

[regazer]

Sorry, I also didn't find out which file you have to edit for that.

I only showed you THE WAY HOW instead of your trial.

My orientation for that based on the following part of overall_header.html from the style prosilver Special Edition ( se_pro_1.0.7 )

Code: Select all

			<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME == "faq" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header2.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "search" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header3.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "memberlist" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header4.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "ucp" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header5.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "viewtopic" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header6.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "viewforum" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header7.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "mcp" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header8.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSEIF SCRIPT_NAME == "posting" --><div class="header-bar" style="background-image: url({T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header9.jpg); background-position: top;">
			<!-- ELSE --><div class="header-bar"><!-- ENDIF -->

That code uses other top backgrounds based/sorted by the SCRIPT_NAME.

Hi,

I would like to add a small link besides the name/description of a forum link.

... why do not go an easy, directly way by BBCode URL into the respective forums description (ACP)?

Description: example

Code: Select all

Snippets for phpBB-3.0
[url=http://www.example.com]Please read more ... whatever[/url]

BTW: Examples of another "gimmicks" in the viewforum_body.html can be found here: german language(!) -> http://www.ongray-design.de/forum/viewt ... 2575#p2575

Hi buddy, thanks for answering. Well, actually I would like to add some html content (which includes a link and some other stuff) near some forum-links, and that content would depend on the specific forum-link ID.

I thought getting that goal with just a few php lines, but (I don't know exactly why) I can't get it work out. Well, I suppose I can add the content 'manually', but it's a quite 'poor' solution, and quite irritating.

[Lumpy Burgertushie]

I have not tested but this should work.
if you only have one forum that you would like this to work on, then just this:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF FORUM_ID eq 'whatever1' --><a href="blah1">bleh1</a><-- ENDIF -->

if you have several different forums that you want to put different information for, then this:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF FORUM_ID eq 'whatever1' --><a href="blah1">bleh1</a>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID eq 'whatever2' --><a href="blah2">bleh2</a>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID eq 'whatever*' --><a href="blah*">bleh*</a><-- ENDIF -->

no need to edit any php files etc.

a forum is a forum the forum ID is the forum ID. It doesn't matter if it is a forum or a category or a link forum etc.

Hi, Robert !

So far it's right what you say and what I told before here viewtopic.php?f=71&t=2107411#p14052306 but the problem is that it DON'T work within forumlist_body.html. It has to be elsewhere, but I didn't find out which file. Otherwise I had reported that.

[atoirtap]

Yep, I've just checked it and it doesn't work. Ok buddies, don't waste your time, I'll do it just 'manually', adding the stuff in the forum-link description field. Thank you all anyway.

[regazer]

Oh guys and girls, I think found it. The file forumlist_body.html was right.

BUT is hasn't to be only "FORUM_ID". It has to be "forumrow.FORUM_ID"

Maybe that in older versions only FORUM_ID had been enough.

in the file forumlist_body.html:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF forumrow.FORUM_ID eq '2' --><a href="link2">2</a>
<!-- ELSEIF forumrow.FORUM_ID eq '3' --><a href="link3">3</a>
<!-- ELSEIF forumrow.FORUM_ID eq '4' --><a href="link4">4</a>
<!-- ELSE -->forumrow.FORUM_ID = {forumrow.FORUM_ID}
<!-- ENDIF -->

To do the same with topics it has to look something like this (in the file viewforum_body.html) :

Code: Select all

<!-- IF topicrow.TOPIC_ID eq '2' --><a href="link2">2</a>
<!-- ELSEIF topicrow.TOPIC_ID eq '3' --><a href="link3">3</a>
<!-- ELSEIF topicrow.TOPIC_ID eq '4' --><a href="link4">4</a>
<!-- ELSE -->topicrow.TOPIC_ID = {topicrow.TOPIC_ID}
<!-- ENDIF -->

I renamed something to show how it exactly works. If no FORUM_ID / TOPIC_ID is known then it will be shown by the last ELSE-branch.

I hope I finally could help to solve the problem(s) ...

[atoirtap]

Ho, ho, ho! Now it works! Thank you santa regazer

[regazer]

Thank you santa regazer

you got me
I'll do what I'm able to.

Thats the only thing which really works. A Forun Link is just a forum id, so enter it as given here and all work fine

A Forum Link < was an error.

but i see now it worked for you

[regazer]

A Forum Link < was an error.

What did you mean? If you meant your typo in your post before or what else - why didn't you edit your post instead of writing a new one ? It seems to become off topic already it's solved.

[ViolaF]

yes, a typo, i saw the solution-post to late after sending my post
and i cant edit any post of mine...
