[Template Modification] Give Forum Node Icons "Mark as Read" Links.

[Vincent_imported]

Hello,

If you want your Unread Forum Node Icons to be "Mark Forum as Read" link for Registered Users.

Notes:

• It will only be a link if you're a Registered User, so not to guests.
• It will only be a link if the forum has unread posts.

Go to the template called node_forum_level_2 and replace the following code:

<span class="nodeIcon" title="{xen:if $forum.hasNew, '{xen:phrase unread_messages}', ''}"></span>

by the following code:

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} AND {$forum.hasNew}">
<a href="{xen:link 'forums/mark-read', $forum, 'date={$serverTime}'}" class="OverlayTrigger">
<span class="nodeIcon" title="{xen:if '{$forum.hasNew} OR !{$visitor.user_id}', '{xen:phrase unread_messages}', ''}"></span>
</a>
<xen:else />
<span class="nodeIcon" title="{xen:if $forum.hasNew, '{xen:phrase unread_messages}', ''}"></span>
</xen:if>

Doesn't load for me

Working fine on the iPad

Try http://www.hlxbans.net/preview.avi

I must be missing a codec or something, doesn't work either. Oh well. Never mind!

 

[Vincent_imported]

It's .avi, Apple is known to not support it

I'll try 'n upload it in mp4 soon.

I downloaded the file, and played it stand alone. Works fine. Dropbox loads the wrong codec.

I just checked this out and unfortunately it seems this has all changed for 1.1b5 - I could be mistaken however it doesn't find the code required.

Thanks really appreciate it - It's good to know after making myself look like a fool on this site earlier today that I hadn't completely lost my mind and just couldn't find the code haha.

... and how to get rid of the confirmation? Since you're actually double-clicking the icons, there really is no need for a confirmation pop-up box.
