Hi Smarty's,

I don't mean to push my luck here but I just wanted to know ONE last thing, I swear.

In viewforum, I can click on the username and go to their profile but with this sub forum mod. I have the following line where it lists all the posts in the sub forums but the username is not a link. Can you please, please tell me what I need to add to get it to work?

        $last_post = '<a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_subforum['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_subforum['last_post_id'].'">'.format_time($cur_subforum['last_post']).'</a><br /> <span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_subforum['last_poster']).'</span>';

Thanks again
Bingiman.

Hmm...I think I got it. I assumed that I had to remove the stuff that I added earlier on so I added it back and it appears to work now.

THANK YOU! so I much for your time and patience with this. I know it must have been frustrating. big_smile

I get the following error"

Error: 1052Column: 'last_post_id' in field list is ambiguous.

I am sure the above is wrong but I am so lost and have no clue what to do and where to do it?

Following the example I have this:

   $sfdb[$sfcount][0] = $current['parent_forum_id'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][1] = $current['num_topics'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][2] = $current['num_posts'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][3] = $current['last_post_id'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][4] = $current['last_poster'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][5] = $current['last_post'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][6] = $current['id'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][7] = $current['forum_name'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][8] = $current['last_poster_id'];
   $sfdb[$sfcount][9] = $current['subject']; <----------------
  $n_t = 0;
  $n_p = 0;
  $l_pid = $cur_forum['last_post_id'];
  $l_pr = $cur_forum['last_poster'];
  $l_pr_id = $cur_forum['last_poster_id'];
  $l_post = $cur_forum['last_post'];
$l_pr_su = $cur_forum['subject']; <-----------------------
  for ($i = 0; $i < $sfcount; $i++)
  {
   if ($sfdb[$i][0] == $cur_forum['fid'])
    {
     $n_t = $n_t + $sfdb[$i][1];
     $n_p = $n_p + $sfdb[$i][2];
     if ($l_pid < $sfdb[$i][3])
      {
       $l_pid = $sfdb[$i][3];
       $l_pr = $sfdb[$i][4];
     $l_pr_id = $sfdb[$i][8];
       $l_post = $sfdb[$i][5];
       $l_pr_su = $sfdb[$i][9]; <---------------
      }
    }
  }

I don't know if that is right and I also do not know how to join it to get the desired results.

This does work. However, it still only displays the last post in the parent forum but when I click on it, it takes me to the sub forum latest post. I am assuming that the problem is in this area:

    // Display the last topic
    $idm = $cur_forum['subject'];
    if(strlen($idm) > 25) {
        $idmComp = str_replace('"', "''", $idm);
        $idm = substr($idm, 0, 25).'...';
    } else
        $idmComp = '';
 
    // If there is a last_post/last_poster.
    if ($l_post != '') {
        $idmT = (isset($idmComp)) ? ' title="'.$idmComp.'"' : '';
    $last_post = 'Re: <a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$l_pid.'#p'.$l_pid.'"'.$idmT.'>'.$idm.'</a><br />'.format_time($l_post).'<br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' <a href="profile.php?id='.$l_pr_id.'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($l_pr).'</a></span>';
    } else
        $last_post = ' ';

I guess nothing in there is really telling it to read the latest post of the sub forum?

ok, You had

'.pun_htmlspecialchars($_lpr).'

when it should have been:

'.pun_htmlspecialchars($l_pr).'

but I still only see the last post of the parent forum. Also, when I hover over the user name it just says:

This is only happening with forums that have sub-forums in them from the index. All other stand alone forums work as far as the user name link in concerned.

Well, it doesn't work. As of now all I can see is the last post in the parent forum and not the sub forum. As for the user name. It is not visible. It just says "by" and nothing to the right. sad

This is the code I have right now which shows me the name of the topic to the right in th eLast Post section. It also makes the user name clickable to their profile:

    // If there is a last_post/last_poster.
    if ($cur_forum['last_post'] != '') {
        $idmT = (isset($idmComp)) ? ' title="'.$idmComp.'"' : '';
    $last_post = 'Re: <a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'"'.$idmT.'>'.$idm.'</a><br />'.format_time($cur_forum['last_post']).'<br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' <a href="profile.php?id='.$cur_forum['last_poster_id'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_forum['last_poster']).'</a></span>';
    } else
        $last_post = ' ';

The code below is the one which the Sub Forum uses:

    // If there is a last_post/last_poster.
if ($l_post != '')
            $last_post = '<a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$l_pid.'#p'.$l_pid.'">'.format_time($l_post).'</a><br /> <span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' <font style="font-weight: bold;">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($l_pr).'</font></span>';
    else
        $last_post = ' ';

The one below shows me if their are NEW Posts in the sub forums but takes away the topic name and the user name link, which is what I am trying to accomplish with the first code above.

Here is my INDEX.PHP file below:

Hi Smartys,

Ok, I finally got it to work so ignore the above post. The problem I am having is that when I post in my sub forums, it should display the lasted post on the index, as it is now, it displays the last post on the parent forum and not the child. Do you think you can look at the code and help me. I am so sorry to be a pain but I really can't figure it out. I do know that it is in this area:

    // Display the last topic
    $idm = $cur_forum['subject'];
    if(strlen($idm) > 30) {
        $idmComp = str_replace('"', "''", $idm);
        $idm = substr($idm, 0, 30).'...';
    } else
        $idmComp = '';
 
    // If there is a last_post/last_poster.
    if ($cur_forum['last_post'] != '') {
        $idmT = (isset($idmComp)) ? ' title="'.$idmComp.'"' : '';
        $last_post = format_time($cur_forum['last_post']).'<br />dans <a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'"'.$idmT.'><em>'.$idm.'</em></a><br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_forum['last_poster']).'</span>';
    } else
        $last_post = ' ';

Thanks

Well, this method does work but in my version which I posted above the username is linked to their profile.

Hi Smarty's. I am using what you suggested. Take a look at my complete index.php file.

As previously mentioned, it does work. The ONLY problem I seem to have is that when I post a "new thread" in a sub-forum it doesn't display it on the last post column on index.php. If however I remove that mod: http://wiki.punres.org/Last_post%27s_su … orum_index then it works correctly.

oh man..I wish I knew PHP and MySQL. I am so lost here. sad

Ok, you've lost me completely. I have no clue what that meant.

I was playing around with it and I had to remove the TRUE from the end of the query and now it displays all the forums.

Anyway, you said that I am running one more query for every row returned so can you show me what I need to do to correct it?

Thanks for your help.

I just installed the sub forum mod and I need some help with some code in my Index file.

I am using this mod here: http://wiki.punres.org/Last_post%27s_su … orum_index

My problem is this. With the above mod I can see the subject to the right of the forum index but once I add the code for the sub-forum mod only (1) forum is displayed and I can't figure out why. Maybe someone can look at the code for me and let me know what I need to fix. Here is the code I am having issues with:

################################################################################
########################### Sub Forum MOD (start) ##############################
################################################################################
  $n_t = 0;
  $n_p = 0;
  $l_pid = $cur_forum['last_post_id'];
  $l_pr = $cur_forum['last_poster'];
  $l_post = $cur_forum['last_post'];
  for ($i = 0; $i < $sfcount; $i++)
  {
   if ($sfdb[$i][0] == $cur_forum['fid'])
    {
     $n_t = $n_t + $sfdb[$i][1];
     $n_p = $n_p + $sfdb[$i][2];
     if ($l_pid < $sfdb[$i][3])
      {
       $l_pid = $sfdb[$i][3];
       $l_pr = $sfdb[$i][4];
       $l_post = $sfdb[$i][5];
      }
    }
  }
  $num_topics = $n_t + $cur_forum['num_topics'];
  $num_posts = $n_p + $cur_forum['num_posts'];
################################################################################
########################### Sub Forum MOD ( end ) ##############################
################################################################################
    }

    if ($cur_forum['forum_desc'] != '')
        $forum_field .= "\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".$cur_forum['forum_desc'];




// THIS IS THE PROBLEM AREA

    // Afficher le titre du dernier topic
    $queryid = $db->query('SELECT topic_id FROM '.$db->prefix.'posts WHERE id='.$cur_forum['last_post_id']);
    $idm = $db->result($queryid);
    $queryid = $db->query('SELECT subject FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics WHERE id='.$idm);
    $idm = $db->result($queryid);
    if(strlen($idm) > 30) {
        $idmComp = str_replace('"', "''", $idm);
        $idm = substr($idm, 0, 30).'...';
    } else
        $idmComp = '';
 
    // If there is a last_post/last_poster.
    if ($cur_forum['last_post'] != '') {
        $idmT = (isset($idmComp)) ? ' title="'.$idmComp.'"' : '';


        $last_post = 'Re: <a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_forum['last_post_id'].'"'.$idmT.'>'.$idm.'</a><br />'.format_time($cur_forum['last_post']).'<br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' <a href="profile.php?id='.$cur_forum['last_poster_id'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_forum['last_poster']).'</a></span>';

    } else
        $last_post = ' ';

Thanks guys

Thank you very, very much for your help. It works great!

Cheers!

Smarty's can you help me with this? I keep trying but I can't seem to get it at all.

This is my existing code. I tried but I just cant get it.:

$result = $db->query('SELECT f.forum_name, f.redirect_url, f.moderators, f.num_topics, f.sort_by, fp.post_topics FROM '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp ON (fp.forum_id=f.id AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].') WHERE (fp.read_forum IS NULL OR fp.read_forum=1) AND f.id='.$id) or error('Unable to fetch forum info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

Well, I am using the mod that shows the forum topic name on the index which was on the wiki.

Anyway, the second part there is messing me up. In viewforum I used the same code but whenever I hover over the username it is all the name user ID. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong and what I need to add?

Thanks
bingiman

I also added it to viewforum.php. It works great as well but maybe someone call tell me if what I did is correct:

original code:

$result = $db->query('SELECT c.id AS cid, c.cat_name, f.id AS fid, f.forum_name, f.forum_desc, f.redirect_url, f.moderators, f.num_topics, f.num_posts, f.last_post, f.last_post_id, f.last_poster, p.poster_id as last_poster_id FROM '.$db->prefix.'categories AS c INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f ON c.id=f.cat_id LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp ON (fp.forum_id=f.id AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].') LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p ON (p.id=f.last_post_id) WHERE fp.read_forum IS NULL OR fp.read_forum=1 ORDER BY c.disp_position, c.id, f.disp_position') or error('Unable to fetch category/forum list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

new code:

$result = $db->query('SELECT f.forum_name, f.redirect_url, f.moderators, f.num_topics, f.sort_by, fp.post_topics, p.poster_id as last_poster_id FROM '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp ON (fp.forum_id=f.id AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].') LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p ON (p.id=f.last_post_id) WHERE (fp.read_forum IS NULL OR fp.read_forum=1) AND f.id='.$id) or error('Unable to fetch forum info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

...and for the username as link
this:

            $last_post = '<a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_topic['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_topic['last_post_id'].'">'.format_time($cur_topic['last_post']).'</a><br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['last_poster']).'</span>';

to:

            $last_post = '<a href="viewtopic.php?pid='.$cur_topic['last_post_id'].'#p'.$cur_topic['last_post_id'].'">'.format_time($cur_topic['last_post']).'</a><br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].'  <a href="profile.php?id='.$cur_forum['last_poster_id'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['last_poster']).'</a></span>';
