how can I get it to display more text in the news item being displayed. If I set it to truncate at 1 then it only shows me approximately 5 letters like this example:


Whe...

I would like to be able to set it to something like 250 characters. Also, is there a way to have alink that says read more and it then takes you to the full topic in the forum?

Thanks

Is there another way in which I can format the history URL. I get errors in my validator.

<a href="javascript: history.go(-1)">Go back</a>

and here is the error:

line 87 column 6 - Warning: <a> escaping malformed URI reference

Thanks in advance for the help.

I have this problem as well using the miniportal hack and I can't find a way around it.

thanks for the help but I still get errors. I am getting this error:

PunBB reported: Unable to get data from posts table
Database reported: Table 'punners.posts' doesn't exist (Errno: 1146)

I also do not know what variable to use in the body of the above boxover script.

Thanks

Where exactly do I have to place the code above in viewforum? I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_WHILE in c:\localsite\viewforum.php on line 147

Thank you Paul. It worked like a charm.

so you mean just use something like this: <a id="top"></a>? I placed that after the body tag and it seems to work. Is that correct.

Thanks for your help

I am going crazy trying to get this to work.

I added just the basic <a href'#top">Top</a> to my viewtopic.php file. It does works but the problem is that if I use

<a id="top" name="top" />

as is instructed in one of the forums post I then get the hover color under certain text. It depends on where I place it in the main.tpl file. If I place it at the bottom and hover over the jump to forum are the the hover class is used although it is not a link. Why wouldn't this just work in the viewtopic file?

Thanks
Bingiman.

I just installed a script called boxover. I am currently trying to use it in the viewforum.php file. It works great and I've tested it on almost every browser. It is also w3c compliant. My problem is this. I am new to punBB and have no idea what I should add in the boxover field to get it to display:

1 - The Subject of the last post
2 - The mesasge body [last post] with a limited amount of text eg: (250 characters)

Here is the area I am trying to work with:
           
           

$subject = '<a title="header=['.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']).'] body=['.$cur_post['message'].']" href="viewtopic.php?id='.$cur_topic['id'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']).'</a> <br /><span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['poster']).'</span>';

UPDATE: Ok, I managed to get the subject to be displayed but not the actual message. Help!
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bingiman

I found another bug in profile.php - You need to be in profile under administration

If you're using forums with the "&" in the names. example: YOU&ME you get errors. I got the following using FireFox's HTML Validator:

line 115 column 30 - Warning: unescaped & which should be written as &
line 124 column 28 - Warning: unescaped & which should be written as &
line 178 column 34 - Warning: unescaped & which should be written as &

This line:

                        echo "\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<div class="conl">'."\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<p><strong>'.$cur_forum['cat_name'].'</strong></p>'."\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<div class="rbox">';

should be changed to:

                        echo "\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<div class="conl">'."\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<p><strong>'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_forum['cat_name']).'</strong></p>'."\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t".'<div class="rbox">';

Cheers!

Something is not quite right with this mod. I created (2) sub-forums and made myself moderator of 1 but yet when I check it, I am listed as moderator of both. However, if I go my profile under "Administration" the box is not checked. Has anyone noticed this before or is there a way to resolve this issue?


Update: What I have noticed in my case is this: I have 2 sub-forums. If I check off #1 as moderator it then makes me moderator of #1 and #2. If I check off just sub-forum #2, then it does not check off sub-forum #1 so there definitely is a bug here. Hope I explained myself properly.

Thanks

wow! It is actually in there and I looked over and over. Thank you!

I can't seem to find a file called cache.php as per the readme.txt file. Any ideas?

Guys, not to be dumb here, but what exactly is the fix. I haven't a clue after reading all these messages.

I know that is there, but I wanted something on the frontpage of the site to make it easier for users to select themes. You can see what I mean if you click on my website link. Users can select themes and it changes on the fly.
