Ajax Thread (1stPost) Preview 1.5 Gold · **Released**: 02-03-2007

I have abandoned this modification as I find myself lacking time to do any additional modifications to get it 100% stable.

I would highly recommend that you check out this hack by magnus, as this one seems to be 100% AND looks great. I fell in love with it so I am using it myself

The only thing it doesn't do is give you a preview of the attachments, so you're welcome to keep the attachments part of this hack and use it in conjunction with magnus' hack.

I may just rewrite the attachments part of this hack and re-release it as a standalone.

Here is the link to his modification:

HTML Code:

<IMG src="http://domain.com/images/misc/menu_open.gif" border=0>

Also when there is a soft deleted thread the display is messed up as well for that row due to colspan somewhere not lining up.

I'll have to play with the colspan.

About the editing, it's explained in the 1st post of this thread (i.e. up top) where you remove a line of code.

Thanks, I edited my previous post as you wrote that.

I am having trouble getting this to display to my liking though.
I would like to have the window a defined size while still remaining scrollable. Many of my threads are quite long and with auto-resize the user has to scroll the entire main window as it extends far down. If I set a defined size, the window is the proper size but there are no internal scroll bars to scroll down within that window. Am I missing something or is that a limitation?

You can define a set height and width here (in the JS file)

Code:

//if(params['height']) {ibox.style.height = params['height']+'px';} 
					//else {ibox.style.height = '380px';}
					ibox.style.height = '380px';

					//if(params['width']) {ibox.style.width = params['width']+'px';} 
					//else {ibox.style.width = '800px';}

Just change to

Code:

//if(params['height']) {ibox.style.height = params['height']+'px';} 
					//else {ibox.style.height = '380px';}
					ibox.style.height = '480px';

					//if(params['width']) {ibox.style.width = params['width']+'px';} 
					//else {ibox.style.width = '800px';}

Adding a set height to 480 in the example above. A scrollbar will show for the up/down scrolling if the post is taller than that.

Oh sorry, and also set:

height:45%;

in the CSS file for ibox_content

hmm. Well the problem is in the forumdisplay template. You did install the product file right?

Code:

<if condition="$show['threadicons'] && !is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, $postpreviewusergroups) && $vbulletin->options[ajaxpostpreview_enable] == 1 && (!(in_array($forumid, array($vbulletin->options['ajaxpostpreview_forums']))))">

Try playing with that conditional, for some reason all of them are not returning true.

It checks:
- ThreadIcons are on
- Your Usergroup is not in the usergroups you added to the exclude list
- Makes sure the hack is turned on
- and the forumID is not in the excluded list

only if ALL those return true it sets the colspan to 3 (which is what you need here).

Add the following under $navbar in the FORUMDISPLAY template to check if all the conditions return true:

Code:

<if condition="$show['threadicons']">Icons: True
<br />
<else />
Icons: False
<br />
</if>

<if condition="!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, $postpreviewusergroups)">Not in Excluded Group: True
<br />
<else />
Not in Excluded Group: False
<br />
</if>

<if condition="$vbulletin->options[ajaxpostpreview_enable] == 1">
Mod Enabled: True
<br />
<else />
Mod Enabled: False
<br />
</if>
<if condition="(!(in_array($forumid, array($vbulletin->options['ajaxpostpreview_forums']))))">
Forum Not Excluded: True
<br />
<else />
Forum Not Excluded: False
<br />
</if>

If they're not all true, it won't span 3 columns.

I get the identical results. It's obviously conflicting with another hack. (thread prefixes perhaps?)
