Template System Variable Requests

[Chris]

New request:

In Thread -> Post List, for $[post], we can only get a link to the thread. Can I get this link extracted into the normal href, title, content, etc? I couldn't get it to work, so I'm assuming it's not already supported.

RedBassett: Can you add this to the first post? Thanks.

Done! I don't always check this thread, so just tag me (or a staff member?) to have stuff added to the top index.

New one - perhaps the addition of .is_pbplus to the current_user and is_adfree as a general board variable.
Wouldn't mind being able to display stuff only for those people/under those circumstances, what with the slight changes in layout. Might be pushing it a bit though, haha.

I'd like to have the ability to add the board display name to the thread list. board id is already available but not display name >.<

I think the $[threads] array has a .boards property, so you can do something like this:

{foreach $[threads]}
{if $[threads.index] == 1} <-- double check that it's index; might be iteration or something
 $[threads.board.name]
{/if}
{/foreach}

Obviously sub-optimal from PB's point of view, but a temporary solution if $[threads] has .board

That does not work. $[threads.board_id] is the closest I can get and that is the number id of the board.

Dang.  Was just an idea.

[tunescool]

can we get one to put Read(number of views) before the time of post in the Thread Page, in the Post List template. like in the author row in v4.5. or wherever you feel appropriate but at least in the Post List Template

I'd like to request these please.
support.proboards.com/threads/recent/448806



All of those would be great. They are on a per thread/topic basis. So each stat would represent the individual topic.

[Stinky666]

Can we get a variable to show the total amount of results on the search page please? Much appreciated.
Can we also get some replies on if any of the newer variables suggested will be added. Wont be added. if they may be or whatever. Just some info would be cool.

[Chris]

Can we get the following for the current user?

$[current_user.skin.id]
$[current_user.skin.name]

I'd love them for all user objects if possible (i.e. "current skin in miniprofile" template mods would be possible), but just the current user would be great too. I would think the data is already loaded.

Still in need of this. The recent threads list really needs this so people can see which board each thread is posted on.

Board Display Name is already possible. I'm using it on my theme..

$[board.display_name]

That simple

I tried that code on the thread list template.  Sorry, nothing displays.


The thread list template  under the Board section does not have access to the board variables.  It has access to the board_id, but that is it.  Also, there needs to be a way to specify that information only to be displayed on the /recent/threads page.  I looked at your themes (the color ones, right), and I didn't see that there.

If you actually have the code for the threads list template that allows us to add the actual board name for each row for the /recent/threads page, could you please share it? 

thank you

Yeah sorry, I forget that even though it DISPLAYS on the thread list page, the above is on the board tab.
