Change Label Location Plugin?

[raedhen]

Hello!


I have added labels on my forum but they appear on the left side of the thread title. I wanted them to appear before the thread title for easier scrolling.


(Instead of having [PATCH NOTES] after the thread title, I would like it to be placed before the thread title.)

Does this need a plugin or can this be done through settings? Thanks in advance!

This would be a template mod. From standard the labels appear before the thread title so I'd assume it's been moved to where it is now.

Any idea on how to change this?

Hey raedhen,

To do this, go to Admin > Structure > Layout Templates > Board. On the next screen, click on the Thread List tab.

In the code for your thread list template, around line 10 or so, you should see this code:

<td>$[thread.icons]</td>
<td>
    $[thread.labels]
    <span class="link target">$[thread]</span>
    {if $[thread.pagination]}<div class="ui-micro-pagination">Pages: $[thread.pagination]</div>{/if}

Highlight the variable I've bolded in green and copy it before deleting it. Note that since your labels appear after thread titles the $[thread.labels] variable may be located elsewhere in the template -- the pre-existing location doesn't matter, all that matters is that you remove it from that location. Paste the variable directly before the variable highlighted in blue, so your final product looks like this:

<td>$[thread.labels]$[thread.icons]</td>
<td>    
    <span class="link target">$[thread]</span>
    {if $[thread.pagination]}<div class="ui-micro-pagination">Pages: $[thread.pagination]</div>{/if}

And that'll move labels on your threads to appear before thread titles (as well as any icons that might be attributed to the thread, such as if the thread had been designated as an event).

Thanks! It works. <3
