"To the top" link in every reply

Hi

Desc: This is a simple modification. It adds an image link next to every quick reply (or quote) button in every thread and reply that brings you back to top.
Time to install: About 1Min
Templates to edit: 1
Versions: All vB Versions

In postbit template search for:

<if condition="$show['moderated']">
                <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/moderated.gif" alt="$vbphrase[moderated_post]" border="0" />
            </if>

after that add

<a href="#top" onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 0); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/top.gif" alt="$vbphrase[top]" border="0" /></a>

Now download the image I attached and upload it to /forum/images/buttons

I made you an image for the standard vBulletin Buttons but you can change it or add a different image.

Hope you like it.... and if you do don?t forget to click INSTALL

Just view any thread you like to see the top button

works fine in 3.6.4 Kartel Style, also uploaded a pic that fits better with this style.

my question is:

this mod will take the user to the top of the page, but can this be adjusted so that it takes the user to the top of the thread if it is a multiple-page thread?

tnx for sharing this.

Adjust the onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 0) to what ever pixel height you want it to jump to (counted from the top beeing 0)

I always have this in my forums, why it isn't a standard, I don't know. I hate having to scroll ALL the way to the bottom, just to click top. One could say, why don't you just scroll to the top then, and I answer - what's the point of convenience then?

if i adjusted it so that it looks like:

<a href="#top" onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 10); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/top.gif" alt="Top of Page" border="0" /></a>

does this mean that if the thread was up to 10 pages long, it would take me to the beginning of the thread? or if was 30 pages long it would take me to page 20 of the thread?

i'm not a coder so i wanted to make sure i understood what u mean.

TIA

ummm I have an English language only board... so I changed the *alt* 'nach oben' to 'To Top' as follows:

PHP Code:

<a href="#top" onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 0); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/top.gif" alt="To Top" border="0" /></a>
