get forum id in showthread?

[Exo]

Hi,

how can i check the forum id in showthread?

if ($forumid!=298){
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("showthread_new")."\");");
}
else {
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("showthread")."\");");
}


the $forumid!=298 does not work so, because all forums use than the showthread_new template! :(


thanks for help! :)

Try $foruminfo[forumid]

but does not work :(

$threadinfo[forumid]

[Exo]

still the same in all forums than :confused: :confused:

Well, it would be $foruminfo[forumid] OR $threadinfo[forumid] in vB3, but I haven't looked at vB2 in such a long time. Sounds like to me, you have other issues as a forumid will never be the same in all forums. Doesn't make much sense does it?

in vb2 i think it's $thread[forumid] ;)

ahhh thanks $thread[forumid] does now work! :))

you're welcome ;)

Floren, it seems we know the code of vb2 better than some devs ;)

another way to write it is:
if ($thread['forumid'] == value)
{
eval('dooutput("' . gettemplate('showthread_new') . '");');
}
else
{
eval('dooutput("' . gettemplate('showthread') . '");');
}
That is more elegant because it doesn't use the ole slashes.
That's how I have coded my vbHome (lite) script.
