Hello Willing Sniper...

This is what it would look like with both up and down: (option images)





The image above shows the placement of where they go.

You have up and down? I figured out the image thing once I looked at the code. Tell me about up and down

Nothing to really tell you about the up and down. When one clicks on the up image, it takes them to the top of page and when one clicks on the down image, it takes them to the bottom of page. All this code does, is to have a top and bottom image within each members post.

My code only goes to the top.

The image I presented here was an example only and that's why I requested a mod to the code so that the down image would function.

Ahhh Gotcha.

[Willing Sniper]

How about a back to top button at the bottom of the threads/recent list?

[aRMY83]

For those still interested in the up and down buttons within individual posts, well I finally worked out a code so that you can achieve this. I know of several forums that had this type of code for the v4.5 and now with the v5, you can have the same results.

Just stroll over here:

Find this section of the code:

{if $[post.edited]}
    <div class="edited_by"><span class="italic">Last Edit:</span> $[post.edited.date] by $[post.edited.by_user]{if $[post.edited.reason]}: $[post.edited.reason]{/if}</div>
{/if}

And replace it with this:

<div class="edited_by">{if $[post.edited]}<span class="italic">Last Edit:</span> $[post.edited.date] by $[post.edited.by_user]{if $[post.edited.reason]}: $[post.edited.reason]{/if} - {/if}<a onclick="scroll(0,0);">Back to Top</a></div>

Hi Brian

I did this change on my converted V4 Forum and it worked perfectly.

But .... I created a new Theme and the 'Back to Top' is not appearing in the posts, even though the code appears exactly as above and is unchanged.

I don't understand how changing the Theme could have stopped this code working, especially as it appears to be exactly the same as it was when it was working.

Never mind ....

Sat quietly in a darkened room for a while and the answer became obvious. All sorted now.

Wow, this is sooo cool. I am new to all of this and have never manipulated code in my life.  But I hated not having the "back to top" link.
I tried this and it works perfectly.

THANK YOU!

I looked where this says and there is not a div- class-edited section,  Here is what i see there:

<div class="container posts">
<div class="title-bar">
{if $[reply_button]}
<ul class="controls"><li>$[reply_button]</li></ul>
{/if}
<h1>$[thread.subject]</h1>
</div>
<div class="control-bar ui-helper-clearfix $[scroll_class]">
$[search]
<div class="controls">
$[action_menu]
</div>
<div class="float-left">$[thread.icons]</div>
$[pagination]
</div>
<div class="content cap-bottom">
$[thread.labels]
$[poll]
<table class="list" role="presentation">
<tbody class="$[list_class]">
$[post_list]
</tbody>
</table>
{if !$[quick_reply]}{if $[bottom_reply_button]}
<div class="reply_button pad-all-double">$[bottom_reply_button]<br class="clear" /></div>
{/if}{/if}
</div>
</div>
$[quick_reply]

last line is 29...So what do I do to add this? Thanks...

kpygout- that looks like what I see on the "thread" tab. Switch to the Post List tab in that same area and you'll find what you're looking for- probably around line 34.

Thanks Moonbeam......I did that in another thread and got it to work....

How do you alter the appearance of it? Now it shows the 'forum link' layout. I've been wondering for a while how you link to layout templates in your style sheet,...

Thanks!
