Adding Thread Author to "Find latest posts" Search Results

[kh99]

OK, create a new plugin using hook location search_results_postbit and this code:

PHP Code:

$post['postusername'] = $thread->get_field('postusername');
$post['postuserid'] = $thread->get_field('postuserid'); 


then edit template search_results_postbit and add something like this (the red part was added:

<vb:if condition="$post['postuserid']">
	author <a href="{vb:link member, {vb:raw post}, null, 'userid', 'username'}">{vb:raw post.postusername}</a><br/>
<vb:else />
	{vb:rawphrase by_x_guest, {vb:raw post.postusername}}
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$post['userid']">
	{vb:rawphrase by_x, {vb:link member, {vb:raw post}, null, 'userid', 'username'}, {vb:raw post.username}}
<vb:else />
	{vb:rawphrase by_x_guest, {vb:raw post.username}}
</vb:if>

You're no doubt better at html than I am so I just hacked it in there figuring that you could fix it. ETA: ...or use what Len posted above.

Also if you want you could create phrases and use them like the "by" section does.

Edit: oh, I just re-read your first post. I probably should just have told you that you want to look at packages/vbforum/search/result/post.php and let you handle the rest.
