Forum folders link to archive forums

[ChrisSy]

like in the old archive hack for vb2, i think it would be a nice addition to vb3 and allow spiders to find the archive easier.

Forumhome forum folders when clicked take you to that forum section in the archive.

Those are the on and off folders, right? If so, do this:

in forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
Find:

<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>


and replace that with:

<td><a href="archive/index.php/f=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></td>


In forumhome_forumbit_level2_post find:

<td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>


and replace with:


<td class="alt2"><a href="archive/index.php/f=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></td>


Is that what you were wanting?
