Variable with body of the first message in display.template?

(1/1)

Hi

I'm wondering if anybody knows how could I get content of the first post in a topic (display.template).

What I'm trying to do is call that text in a linkedin share button...However I cannot find the variable which catches it...

I don't know if $topicinfo array contains anything like that...Using it I can easily call subject, first message id...but body text I didn't find

The button is outside posts, before topic title and not in the posts.

All hints and suggestions are welcomed.

I think that if you show button in first message then you can use
--- Code: ---$message['body']
--- End code ---
to get first message content. I did the same thing in other buttons

đukela:
Yeah, I know...but it doesn't fit in so nicely inside the post...maybe I will use this as last last last resort

I think the problem comes to this:

// Get all the messages...
while ($message = $context['get_message']())

I'm putting button before this so $message['body'] has no effect

I'm experimenting now with this...trying to call it earlier just for the button

Thanks though

You cannot get the content of the first post before that while() statement, that's where it is physically loaded.

đukela:
Yeah,

I will leave this for now, buttons will have to suffer from imperfection a little bit  :D

Thanks for replies
