Sticky topics, when read, unbold

[J-Rad14]

I used the code provided by (F.L.A.M.E.R) in this post to bold new topics, but sticky topics stay bold no matter what. I'm a newbie when it comes to PHP but know this is a simple fix. I almost got it but either ended up duplicating the subject or getting a "1" on the left and right of the subject...

In the file: ./Themes/default/MessageIndex.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

                     ', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '<strong>' : '', '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], (!$context['can_approve_posts'] && !$topic['approved'] ? '&nbsp;<em>(' . $txt['awaiting_approval'] . ')</em>' : ''), '</span>', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '</strong>' : '';



Replace with:

Code Select Expand

                           ', $topic['is_sticky'] || ($topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged']) ? '<strong>' : '', '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], (!$context['can_approve_posts'] && !$topic['approved'] ? '&nbsp;<em>(' . $txt['awaiting_approval'] . ')</em>' : ''), '</span>', $topic['is_sticky'] || ($topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged']) ? '</strong>' : '' ;

This should make topics with new reply bold when looked in the board.

Tested and working. Also added to the users forum.

Marking this as solved.

What bit of code do I need to modify? Currently, non-sticky topics bold when new, and unbold when read, I would like the same to be done for sticky topics, currently they are bold read and unread.


\\\\\\ I would also like this for the board names. Bold new posts. Non-bold no new posts.

\\ Changed first instance of "is_sticky" to "is_approved" and that does what I want. Now off to changing read/unread icons based on purely that and not "my" topics.

Just replace the last code with:

Code Select Expand

', ($topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged']) ? '<strong>' : '', '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], (!$context['can_approve_posts'] && !$topic['approved'] ? '&nbsp;<em>(' . $txt['awaiting_approval'] . ')</em>' : ''), '</span>', ($topic['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged']) ? '</strong>' : '' ;

Hope it works
