Length of Thread Preview vB 4.2 PL2

[Syxguns]

Okay first let me say that I've been searching for a while and coming up empty handed for vB 4.2 PL2.

Here: https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/...s_forumdisplay

And I've read a couple of post about going to AdminCP >> Settings > Options > Forum Listings Display Options and finding "Length of thread preview" and set it to 0.

However I do not have that option in vB 4.2. Using Firebug I've determined that the location of the thread preview is in forumlastpost td, but where from there can I make changes to not show the mouse over effect?

I've attached a pic so you can see what I'm talking about. I wouldn't have a problem with it but it is showing the HTML code that I used for username markup. I want to disable that mouse over effect, I just need to know where to do it.

Thanks for any help you can provide! If this option was removed from vB 4.2, then it needs to be replaced!:erm:

Thanks snakes1100, however that did not do the trick. I did a search in the templates for forumlastpost, and checked all the files. I could not find anything that said [preview] to change.

I didn't mention that the mod I'm using is Username HTML Markup 4.1 located here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229146

In the XML file I could not find a mouse over event or preview event to make changes to, however, if I could add a condition to the XML to not allow mouse over on the hyperlink I could do that as well.

Still looking, do you have any more suggestions?

Edit: by the way if you would like to check it out with Firebug you can see it in action here: http://www.place4musicians.com You may also log in as Guest Guest1234 is a password. You have no permissions but can view the entire forum if you like.

If you're trying to eliminate the mouseover tooltip with the preview in it you need to remove

title="{vb:raw thread.preview}"

in the threadbit template. See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_standard_title.asp

I'm still using vb4.1.12, I assume it's the same as in the version you're using.

I'll give that a shot, do you know what file that is located in? I just need it removed from the forumlastpost but if I have to remove it from everything to get rid of the problem I will.

Thanks nerbert

It's not in a file, it's in the "threadbit" template in the Style Manager

Found it. After I removed it the mouse over image was still there.

[nerbert]

Same here. I'm mystified.

[Syxguns]

That seemed like it should have worked! Can you think of another location to remove preview?

[nerbert]

Perhaps the title attribute is there for people with JavaScript disabled and for those who have JS enabled it's in the JavaScript for that page "search_resultlist".

One look at any of those scripts will make your eyes bleed.
