Hi,

Is there was way to display the board a thread is in when viewing the Recent Threads results.  It is highly requested by members but I can't figure out how to do it.   Here is how it might look.

Thanks,
Steve

This is possible with a template modification, so I have gone ahead and moved this over to the template requests board

This is great and will do exactly what I need, but for some reason when you go to the second page of recent threads is does not refresh and show the board the thread is in like it does on the first page??

I added the code to the bottom as it states. I don't know what I am doing wrong?

[srf1516]

I got it now!! It's working perfectly and just what I needed! Thank you! Thank you!

Just a note. This seems to be working great in every browser except for IE. I don't use IE, but some of the members are reporting the page will not advance. I have tried it in IE also and on mine the whole page is displayed wrong? (part of the reason I don't use IE)

Hi can you post a screen-shot so i can see what the issue is
Also did you add the line of code to fix IE fix to align the avatar?

THEMES > ADVANCED STYLES & CSS > STYLE SHEET



AND AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE STYLE SHEET PAGE



ADD THE LINE OF CODE BELOW



.created-by .avatar-wrapper {display: block;}

Hmmm All seems to be working well using Chrome & Firefox

I can see what you mean ON Internet Explorer I have no idea why it would be doing that
As I don't use IE  perhaps admin  Brian can help of give a idea on what the problem is using IE
When on the recent threads page clicking on page 2,3,4 forum  www.WatchinTyme.com

It shows fine for me in IE regardless of whether or not the code discussed in this thread is present, but there's a weird script at the bottom of the Thread List template that's making the page flip out.

{if $[page] != 1 && ($[route.name] == "list_threads")}
<script>
if(document.URL.indexOf("recent") >= 0){
window.history.go(0)}
</script>
{/if}

I Think it's this At the very bottom of the Thread List Page template
for some reason it's not liking IE

{if $[page] != 1 && ($[route.name] == "list_threads")}
<script>
if(document.URL.indexOf("recent") >= 0){
window.history.go(0)}
</script>
{/if}

that was there Brian as when you clicked on page 2,3 4 etc it would not display until it refreshed the page
as it would only display on the first page strange it works well using chrome & firefox
But if that's the problem perhaps it will work without it..
yeah for some reason it now liking IE as all worked before..

[Brian]

What's the purpose of that particular script?

David helped with it - the problem was when on the first page on the recent threads page 
it would show where the last board was posted in - But when you clicked on page 2,3,4 etc
it would not display what board the thread was posted in until you refreshed the page...
So that script although not ideal would refresh the page when on either page 2,3.4 etc
so it would show which board the thread was posted in..
had no problems before as all worked on all browsers  it just suddenly seems to be a IE issue
if view the forum using chrome or firefox and click on page 2,3,4 etc you will see what I mean  works well on chrome & firefox

I went ahead and created a task in our tracker to fix that problem with the $[thread.board] variable. No estimate on when it'll be worked on as it's not currently labeled as a priority bug.

So it seems to be a problem the $[thread.board] variable  hope it can be fixed asp as viewing internet explorer seems to be in
endless loop - thanks again for your prompt reply and help on this issue - always appreciated
