Hello,

How can we sort the attachements by date instead of default chronological order and how can we display the dates in the attachements pop-up generated when we click on the attachement icons in the threads list pages.

Exactly like on forexfactory.com :

I would be also interested to know how we can add a hide pictures option.

Any help ?

That is the pop-up you get when you click on the little paperclip? The date isn't' shown there in default vb, so you modified the code to add it. I suppose you can modify it further by doing an ORDER BY date.

Hi Lynne,

Thanks for your reply,

Yes that's correct. The main question is how to write this order by date feature.

Well, what is the code you added? What is the name of that variable? Did the modification have to use a plugin to grab the date? Probably the same plugin can be used to do an ORDER BY dateline (or whatever the variable is called).

Hi Lynne,

I have added no code as I have not found any code to do that.

Here is the attachment code that should be modified :

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
	$headinclude
	<title>$vbphrase[attachments] - $vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
</head>
<body onload="self.focus()" style="margin:0px">

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
	<td class="tcat" colspan="3">
		$vbphrase[attachments]
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[attachment]</td>
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[size]</td>
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[views]</td>
</tr>
$attachments
<tr>
	<td class="tfoot" colspan="3" align="center"><div class="smallfont">
		<a href="#" onclick="opener.location=('showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid'); self.close();"><strong>$vbphrase[show_thread_and_close_window]</strong></a>
	</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

That is not the correct template. No where in there does it show the date. If I'm mistaken and that *is* your template, then the date is being added via a plugin.

You need to find the query that grabs all those attachments names/ids/size/etc and add in the ORDER BY statement.

Google "mysql ORDER BY" and you'll get several ORDER BY help pages like this one - http://www.tizag.com/mysqlTutorial/mysqlorderby.php

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
