Flip Thread

[d3]

BTW: Would you mind removing the link to my board from the thread? Thanks again!

Only one issue I have left with the Thread Flip plugin so far, now that I moved the Quick Reply to the top.

After I send a quick reply, the browser moves its focus to the bottom of the page (the oldest post on page 1) instead of moving focus to the most recent post.

Is there anywhere I can change some code to make it pop to most recent post after a quick reply?

This is an interesting one.. I'll take a look and see what I can do.

You rock, Todge! Thanks so much!

Okay. Sorry to have to keep bugging you. I'm having a problem with Pagination now. When I click a thread that has multiple pages, its' going to page 2, 3, etc instead of loading into the first page (with the most recent comments)

Comments?

Are you meaning posts, or post comments, as they are two different things.. Post Comments being a whole different plugin.

[d3]

Sorry. I meant the most recent post to the topic.

[Todge]

As I've mentioned before, this plugin was a real pain...

I'll see what I can do, but don't hold your breath.

I can only imagine. You guys have a rough job writing code for this forum system.

As a rule, no, most things we need to change are readily available to do so, it's just the way the pagination is added to the page and the way it works that makes it a problem.

I had to keep the original pagination, but have it hidden, the add a new one that directly links to the hidden one, so, you click Page 1, for example, it then sends a click event to the lsat page on the original.

Sounds simple, but when you have to deal with lots of pages, sorting out which buttons to send the event to was a bit of a pain, and, of cause, the Prev and Next buttons needed to be reconfigured to go in opposite directions.

As I said, it was frustrating.

Todge, is there a way to allow the user to select if they want to flip the thread or not?

Thanks in advance for your your help

[Todge]

I can... I'd rather do it using LocalStorage than adding a key though.

[BusyMother]

I have no clue what that is but what would you need from me?  If it is too hard, then by all means do not worry about it.

[Todge]

If I use a key, then the option would be avaialable to all members on whatever machine they choose to use to visit your forum.. If I use localStorage, the option will only work on there usual PC, assuming localStorage has not been disabled in their browser.

I don't need anything from you, other than to know that you are OK with me using localStorage to add the option.

Reverse the posts within a thread, so the last post will appear at the top of page 1 etc.

Plugin

Direct Link

Current Version: 0.0.1

can i apply this to more than one post? so let's say, not just the single last post but also the second last and third last post in a thread?
