In the forumhome_forumbit_* and FORUMDISPLAY-Templates you can use $foerumid

Aslo, how can I add this to the search.php so the date and time show up in there too when searching? I have been trying for a couple of hours now to add it there, but to no avail.

What do you mean with "so the date and time show up in there too"?

[Boofo]

When you click on View Unanswered threads, the date and time you did for the "Thread Post Time on Forum Display" code you did in the other thread doesn't show up. I thought I would ask about it in here because I don't remember where the other thread is.

I C.

In search.php FIND

PHP Code:

        // query thread data
        $dataQuery = "
            SELECT $previewfield
                thread.threadid, thread.threadid AS postid, thread.title AS threadtitle, thread.iconid AS threadiconid, 


REPLACE that with

PHP Code:

        // query thread data
        $dataQuery = "
            SELECT $previewfield
                thread.dateline, thread.threadid, thread.threadid AS postid, thread.title AS threadtitle, thread.iconid AS threadiconid, 


Still in search.php FIND

PHP Code:

eval('$searchbits .= "' . fetch_template('threadbit') . '";'); 


ABOVE that ADD

PHP Code:

$thread[created] = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $thread[dateline], 1) . ' ' . vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $thread[dateline]); 


If you also want to display the thread creation date/time when displaying search results as posts:

In search.php FIND

PHP Code:

         // query post data
        $dataQuery = "
            SELECT post.postid, post.title AS posttitle, post.dateline AS postdateline,
                post.iconid AS posticonid, post.pagetext,
                IF(post.userid = 0, post.username, user.username) AS username,
                thread.threadid, thread.title AS threadtitle, thread.iconid AS threadiconid, thread.replycount, 


REPLACE that with

PHP Code:

         // query post data
        $dataQuery = "
            SELECT post.postid, post.title AS posttitle, post.dateline AS postdateline,
                post.iconid AS posticonid, post.pagetext,
                IF(post.userid = 0, post.username, user.username) AS username,
                thread.dateline AS threaddateline, thread.threadid, thread.title AS threadtitle, thread.iconid AS threadiconid, thread.replycount, 


Still in search.php FIND

PHP Code:

eval('$searchbits .= "' . fetch_template('search_results_postbit') . '";'); 


ABOVE that ADD

PHP Code:

$post[threadcreated] = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $post[threaddateline], 1) . ' ' . vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $post[threaddateline]); 


Add $post[threadcreated] to Template search_results_postbit.

Please note that these modifications will work for all searches, not just for unanswered threads.

PS: Should I release both "thread creation date" mods as hacks? Might be useful for others too ...

[Boofo]

Yes, you should release both of them. Maybe even put them together as one?

And thank you, sir.

[Boofo]

I'm not seeing it show up for the posts.

EDIT: Ignore this. I was doing it inside the if condition. I moved it outside that and it works right now for posts. Excellent job, thank you, sir.

Maybe this does work (remove the other mods):

In search.php FIND

PHP Code:

// check our results and decide what to do
switch ($highScore) 


ABOVE that ADD

PHP Code:

if ($highScore > 0 AND $_REQUEST['dontcache']) {
$highScore = 0;
$DB_site->query("DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "search WHERE searchid=$search[searchid]");
} 


Works perfect.

[Andreas]

Same as for "normal" search.

[ogden2k]

Ok. I have this under Quick Links. When I'm on forum home, I do not see the option under Quick Links, but I do when I'm in a forum...?

This is what I'm using:

search.php?do=process&replyless=1&replylimit=0&dontcache=1&forumchoice[]=7&forumchoice[]=37&forumchoice[]=10&forumchoice[]=14&forumchoice[]=9&forumchoice[]=38&forumchoice[]=36&forumchoice[]=11&forumchoice[]=8&forumchoice[]=20&forumchoice[]=23
