Move "Likes" to Bottom of Post

[jhomes87]

Ok, last thread/question of the night for me...is there a way to move the like feature to the bottom of the post, instead of the top?

In other words, when you "like" a post, it shows up above that post..."so-and-so" likes this post. Is there a way to get that to display at the bottom of each post instead?

Where exactly would you like it? Just above the signature, kind of how the "last edit" displays? Except have "Likes" displayed on the left side rather than the right.. ?

Stinky666 - Yes, that sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, jhomes87.

Go to Structure > Layout Templates > Thread > Post List. Change the contents of <td class="foot"> to this (this part of the code starts on Line 31 in the default template).

                    <td class="foot">
                        <div style="float: left;">
                            $[post.likes]
                        </div>
                        {if $[post.edited]}
                        <div class="edited_by" style="float: right;"><span class="italic">Last Edit:</span> $[post.edited.date] by $[post.edited.by_user]{if $[post.edited.reason]}: $[post.edited.reason]{/if}</div>
                        {/if}
                        <br />
                        {if $[post.created_by_user.signature]}
                        <div class="signature" style="clear: both;">$[post.created_by_user.signature]</div>
                        {/if}
                    </td>

This should achieve what you want.

Brian, Thanks! I think it worked. However, it still shows who "liked" a post at the top of the post in addition to now displaying it at the bottom. Also, I think the code you posted above starts on line 41 instead of 31...or at least that was the only place I could find the <td class="foot"> part.

So I guess I just need to figure out how to remove the "likes" from the top of the post and have them only display at the bottom. Thanks!

In that same template, near the top, there should be a div with class "info" with several variables about "post method". Near the bottom of that, around line 17, should be $[post.likes], you want to remove that.

Shrike, awesome! Thanks, that worked perfectly!
