Remove Posting Redirection (like vB3)

Hack: Remove posting redirection.

By: Anime-loo

Current Version:
Pre Release: [high]1.2pr 1[/high]
Stable: [high]1.1[/high]

[high]What dose this do?[/high]

This hack will removed the redirection pages that apper after posting a reply/thread. Insted of seeing a "Thanks for posting, we are now sending you to..." message before a user is sent to their post, they are sent directly to it. On 56k ive noticed a big improvement in speed.

12 - 26 - 2003:

Version 1.2 pre release 1 released, this version answers the request(s) of many that are using this hack. That is no redirection screens after editing a post or deleting it.

If you are using 1.1 you can upgrade to 1.2pr 1 via the second attachment in this post. At this time there is no install file for 1.2 pr 1, install 1.1 then upgrade.

5 ([high]8 for 1.2 pr 1[/high]) file edits
(files: newreply.php, newthread.php, poll.php, editpost.php ([high]1.2 pr 1 only[/high]))

Use this for the second one:

PHP Code:

// redirect
if ($visible && !$returntowhere) {
$goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid&goto=newpost";
} else {
if ($returntowhere=="forumhome") {
$goto="index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]";
} elseif ($returntowhere=="thread") {
$goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid&goto=newpost";
} else {
$goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";
}
}
@header ("Location: $goto")
exit;

Nice mod AL! Might use this one.

[Zelda-King]

How about applying this to editpost.php too (I know it has different code)?

[Pady]

great looking hack - i have always hated sitting around waiting for slow sites to load up the new page - good job anime-loo

[jibious]

maybe search.php as well?

if you can that is. it uses no // redirect code in the file but rather just the templates already created (same with editpost.php). which, i'm guessing, is the reason you didn't do this in the first place.

*installed*
