What Styles are we All using

This is a small hack that will show each users current selected style in showthread. For a demo just follow one of my links in my forum (chins & quills) and find your way to a thread.

Open showthread.php and find:

attachment.attachmentid,attachment.filename,attachment.visible AS attachmentvisible,attachment.counter

add this after it on the same line

,style.title as styletitle

find this in showthread.php

LEFT JOIN user ON user.userid=post.userid

add this after it on the next line

LEFT JOIN style on (user.styleid = style.styleid)

open up the postbit template and place this where you like

Style: <a href='index.php?styleid=$post[styleid]'>$post[styletitle]</a></smallfont>

Link it to whatever you want.

You may do that if you wish, I had thought about it but didn't get around to doing it.

If you want to do that than link to this:

<a href='showthread.php?styleid=$post[styleid]&postid=$post[postid]&s=$session[sessionhash]#post$post[postid]'>$post[styletitle]</a>

I made a simple hack to show statistics what is the user's choice of the style.
At the same time anyone can change the style for the current session by one click .
It's here .
Sorry, all pages in Russian.
But you need not read, just take a look.

Thanks, it's working great but my default style isn't listed....just my 2nd stlye shows up.



Any ideas on how to have the default style listed? I use a custom style as my default and allow ppl to choose the vBulleting style from their profile.

Hi

I am having trouble geting this hack to work since I have upgraded to 2.0.3.

I have re-installed the hack?

Should this work with this version?

Thanks
Mark

Same here.

Hi

I can get this hack to work with 2.0.3 if I upload the old v2.0.0 showthread.php when I do this I loose all of the page navigation?

The hack still works on your board Freddie, what do I have to do to get it working???

Thanks
Mark

The code is now in the second function in functions.php.

Found it

There are two places where the code can be added in the showthread.php file, the first piece of code go on line 307 not line 54. the second goes on line 374 not line 58.

It then works again.

Mark

Can someone please tell how to incorporate this into v 2.0.3??!!
i got confused but the whole functions.php thingie

thx.
