The "Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:" problem...

Does anybody know if there's a hack out there that prevents adding on all the extra "Re: " strings at the beginning of replies to replies?

So that all replies, and responses to replies are "Re: Original Thread" instead of "Re: Re: Re: Re: Original Thread"?

Lol, I'd like to know this too. As if you've got a huge thread the topic name will end up bigger than the actual post. :p

I've never actually seen this problem. Most users in forums I visit don't use quote, and so don't ususally have a topic for non-thread-starting posts. This should be a simple matter of finding the bit of code where the "Re: " is added, and seeing if the 1st 4 chars are "Re: " first.

In newreply.php

Replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
    if ($postinfo[title]!="") {

      $title="Re: ".unhtmlspecialchars($postinfo[title]);

    }

With:

PHP Code:


		
			
    if (strpos($postinfo[title], "Re:") {

        $title=unhtmlspecialchars($postinfo[title]);

    } elseif ($postinfo[title]!="") {

      $title="Re: ".unhtmlspecialchars($postinfo[title]);

    }

Untested but it should work.

Yup, should work quite well except under rare circumstances (like the topic of this thread) ;)

I'll modify it a lil and actually check for the position of "Re: " in the string, and set it to only add one if strpos>0.

Thanks very much.

i'd use this:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($postinfo[title]!="") {

      $title="Re: ".unhtmlspecialchars($postinfo[title]);

    }

$title = str_replace("Re: Re: ", "Re: ", $title);

How would you do the same thing for private messages?

in private.php after this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$subject="Re: $message[title]";

add this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$subject=str_replace("Re: Re: ", "Re: ", $subject);
