Display Options Above Threads - as seen on vbulletin.org
 

This template mod, updated from my 3.6.x version, will streamline and relocate the "Display Options" dropdown menus to the top of your threads list on forumdisplay, as seen here at vbulletn.org in the modification areas.

As part of this move, we'll also change the look of the "Active Users"/Moderators panel remaining at the bottom of the page. ('Before' and 'after' screenshots are below.)

Note: In the 3.6.x version, there were two different versions of this mod -- the extra one being for those forums using the excellent Thread Prefixes mod by Mystics. Now that vB 3.7.0 has prefixes on its own, those extra set of instructions are no longer necessary.

Important: If you've installed or applied other mods that have altered the forumdisplay template, you may need to adjust the instructions accordingly.

I hope this mod is helpful! As always, many thanks to vbulletin.org for the inspiration, not to mention years of providing an amazingly helpful community.

reserved !! :)

lets try it.

thx for ur effort

thanks!!!
nice hack

Kira vey thaks nice.

Yep you're right. I didn't see that. Now it works. You'll notice that I've deleted two small things inside the modification which are really not necessary. So then it looks now we'd like to have ;)

Thanks again, but it's still not quite right I'm afraid! What do you think wasn't necessary?
Because unless I'm reading your XML wrong, your replacements eliminate the announcebits section completely, which means announcements won't show up. Plus, you still didn't take away the extra ID = threadslist from the table code above the announcebits section, which means the thread editing will still not work.

Here's the section I'm talking about:

The searchstr must include this:

And the replacestr should start with this:

(Obviously this isn't the whole replacement code.) Note the removed id="threadslist' in the replacement stuff, and the inclusion of $announcebits. These are necessary otherwise announcements and inline thread title editing won't work.

I really do appreciate the help, Mike! I wish I could create TMS files on my own but I'm no php coder by any stretch. Plus I don't use TMS yet! However, I know the above stuff is important for the modification to work correctly.

Damn, seems to be not being my day :( I never would have guessed. Probaby I have mixed somethings. Never try to make some changes when your Editor does have 12 Template codes next to each other working. Yes you're absolutely right because I forgot the most important. Now I have fiixed it and it works. Gee, what a terrible day. Thank you, Kira :) You just made my day :D

BTW: I just saw your BDay. That's almost the same like mine of just 1 day difference :)

thanks for this updated release. The 3.6.x version wasn't working with 3.7!

Thanks for the TMS File ===> Mike-D (alter Freund:D)
