"New Post" feature include page number of threads?

[Sia Bani]

Hello fellas. A lot of my members use the "View New Posts" feature and were wondering if there was anyway to display the page numbers of a thread when the search results came up. Basically, they can either go to the first post or the last post, but there's not option for pages.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

This might be a little tricky because page count is not a fixed number, it changes according to user's settings or your settings in admin cp/options page.

So there's no solution to this?

Open SEARCH.PHP

FIND:

PHP Code:

unset($paperclip);
      } 


UNDERNEATHE ADD:

PHP Code:

if (($bbuserinfo['maxposts'] != -1) and ($bbuserinfo['maxposts'] != 0)) {
        $maxposts = $bbuserinfo['maxposts'];
      }
      if (($searchresult['replycount']+1) > $maxposts and $linktopages) {
        $thread = $searchresult; // for templates
        $totalpages = ($searchresult['replycount']+1)/$maxposts;
        if ($totalpages != intval($totalpages)) {
          $totalpages = intval($totalpages)+1;
        }

        $acurpage = 0;
        $pagenumbers = '';
        while ($acurpage++ < $totalpages) {
          if ($acurpage == $maxmultipage) {
            eval("\$pagenumbers .= \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_multipagenav_more')."\";");
            break;
          } else {
            eval("\$pagenumbers .= \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_multipagenav_pagenumber')."\";");
          }
        }
        eval("\$searchresult[pagenav] = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_multipagenav')."\";");
      } else {
        $searchresult['pagenav']='';
      } 


SAVE AND CLOSE SEARCH.PHP and UPLOAD.


Now, OPEN your searchresultbit_threadonly TEMPLATE:

FIND:

PHP Code:

$searchresult[threadtitle]</a></normalfont> 


ADD RIGHT AFTER THAT:

PHP Code:

<smallfont>$searchresult[pagenav]</smallfont> 


That should do the trick. I've been using this for quite some time on my forums.

Awesome! Thanks.

[Sia Bani]

hmmm...didn't do the trick. Nothing's different. I'm running 2.2.8. Any ideas what the problem is?

[MetroSports82]

Doh! My bad.. Forgot the one step.

OPEN your searchresultbit_threadonly TEMPLATE:

FIND:

PHP Code:

$searchresult[threadtitle]</a></normalfont> 


ADD RIGHT AFTER THAT:

PHP Code:

<smallfont>$searchresult[pagenav]</smallfont> 


Sorry about that. :P Now it should come up w/o any problems. Let me know how that goes.

thanks.
