first of all my 'beginning' code might be a bit different, my board is really hacked up. anyways,...

to get a 'Next Page >' button in your multi-page threads, so people dont need to remember what page they're on:
in showthread.php replace

Code:

  while ($curpage++<$totalpages) {

    if (($curpage<$pagenumber-$pagenavpages or $curpage>$pagenumber+$pagenavpages) and $pagenavpages!=0) {
      if ($curpage==1) {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>&lt;&lt; First Page</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp; ...&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
      if ($curpage==$totalpages) {
        $pagenav.=" ...&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Last Page &gt;&gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    } else {
      if ($curpage==$pagenumber) {
        $pagenav.=" <font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      } else {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    }
  }
} else {

with

Code:

  while ($curpage++<$totalpages) {

    if (($curpage<$pagenumber-$pagenavpages or $curpage>$pagenumber+$pagenavpages) and $pagenavpages!=0) {
      if ($curpage==1) {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>&lt;&lt; First Page</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp; ...&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
      if ($curpage==$totalpages) {
		$twrat_nextpage = ($pagenumber)+1;
        $pagenav.=" ...&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_nextpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Last Page &gt;&gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    } else {
      if ($curpage==$pagenumber) {
        $pagenav.=" <font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      } else {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    }
  }
$twrat_nextpage = ($pagenumber)+1;
$pagenav.="&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_nextpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";

} else {

excuse the weird var names, i prefix my stuff generally w/ tw_ or twrat_ so i can find it easier before i go back and comment it

to make your template.php create instantly useable templates from the form (instead of having to go into global.php and register them) open /admin/template.php and find

Code:

  $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO template (templateid,title,template) VALUES (NULL,'".addslashes("$title")."','".addslashes("$template")."')");

under it add

Code:

# added template code
# echo "title is $title <br>"; # debugging
$filename = "rattemp.php";
$str = '<?php eval("\$'; 
$str .= $title; 
$str .= ' = \"".gettemplate("';
$str .= $title;
$str .= '")."\";"); ?>';
$fp=fopen($filename, 'a+'); 
fwrite($fp,"$str \n"); 
fclose($fp);

# end

then open up global.php and find

Code:

eval("\$fivelinks = \"".gettemplate("fivelinks")."\";");

and under it add

Code:

require ("admin/rattemp.php");

now create an empty file called /admin/rattemp.php and upload it, make sure its CHMOD-ed to 666, and you're set. also note if you delete custom templates, this wont remove the reference from the rattemp.php file, you'll have to do that manually, but i did this for my design guy who isnt really one to go trekking through code when he wants to make a template

anyways, thats all stuff ive been meaning to do for 3 months and never got around to it, so i figured maybe i'd share it

also im not really a mega-php programmer, my bag is perl, so if you find my code is weird (or just plain bad) thats why

my bad, old ver. to get the next button replace it with

Code:

  while ($curpage++<$totalpages) {

    if (($curpage<$pagenumber-$pagenavpages or $curpage>$pagenumber+$pagenavpages) and $pagenavpages!=0) {
      if ($curpage==1) {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>&lt;&lt; First Page</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp; ...&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
      if ($curpage==$totalpages) {
        $pagenav.=" ...&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Last Page &gt;&gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    } else {
      if ($curpage==$pagenumber) {
        $pagenav.=" <font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      } else {
        $pagenav.=" <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$curpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>$curpage</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";
      }
    }
  }
$twrat_nextpage = ($pagenumber)+1;
      if ($pagenumber != $totalpages) {
	$pagenav.="&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_nextpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;"; }

} else {

sorry if anyone stuck that in already, it'd actually let you keep going to say, page 4 of a 3 page thread. it looks kinda dorky

#3 01-02-2001, 11:02 AM

thanks for the code, it workes perfectly, but can you add previous page to the hack?

Changing the above code to:

Code:

$twrat_prevpage = ($pagenumber)-1;
$twrat_nextpage = ($pagenumber)+1;
if ($pagenumber != $totalpages) {
  $pagenav="<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_prevpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;".$pagenav; 
  $pagenav.="&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_nextpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;"; 
  }

Should work.

#5 01-02-2001, 03:32 PM

not exactly,
first of all you didnt change it to perivous page (so both of them are "next page",
and second,
the previos text shows before "This thread is X pages long:".
please fix that.

#6 01-02-2001, 03:40 PM

Code:

$twrat_prevpage = ($pagenumber)-1;
$twrat_nextpage = ($pagenumber)+1;
if ($pagenumber != 1) {
  $pagenav.="<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_prevpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Previous Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;"; 
}
if ($pagenumber != $totalpages) {
  $pagenav.="&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid&pagenumber=$twrat_nextpage".iif($perpage==$maxposts,"","&perpage=$perpage")."\"><font color=\"#afa3c5\" class=thtcolor>Next Page &gt;</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;"; 
  }

#7 01-02-2001, 03:52 PM

that is not what i wanted, what I want is something like this:
< Previous Page 1 2 3 Next Page >

now it is:

1 2 3 Previous Page > Next Page >

#8 01-02-2001, 05:39 PM

Why don't you look at the code a little and fix it.

Sorry but while I try to help, I am not at your beck and call and my time is precious. The next time you need help, why don't you ask a little more kindly and without the demanding tone?

#9 01-02-2001, 05:53 PM

sorry if i didnt ask kindly, I really aprreciate your work.
I know nothing about php but ill try.
thanks anyway.
well maybe just one more thing,
can you tell me how to use this "<" char?

If you look at the source of this page you will see that you need to use "<"
