Hello,
I have got a custom php code which uses SSI.php functions in order to build a "Recent Topics" list. You choose which topics will be shown by adding their topic ID within an array. I use this code in a "custom php" block in Simple Portal. After I build a recent topics list, when I click on one of the topics, I am redirected to its beginning (first post).
Since I use it as a "Recent Topics" block, I would like to be redirected to its last post when I click on a topic in this list.
For the same reason, I would like to see a new message icon (...language/new.gif) when there is an unread post in these topics, just like the one in the topic list of a board.
I don't know which of the codes should be modified (SSI.php or the custom php code below?) I am not a coder and I have got almost zero knowledge about php or html codes. So, I would be grateful for any help.
NOTE: Simple Portal's own "Recent Posts/Topics" option is of no use to me.
Thank you in advance.
global $smcFunc;
// Array with all the IDs of topics separated by comas
$topics = array(topicID1, topicID2,...);
$shown = array();
foreach($topics as $id) {
$request = $smcFunc['db_query']('', '
SELECT t.id_first_msg
FROM {db_prefix}topics as t
WHERE t.id_topic = {int:topic}',
array(
'topic' => $id,
)
);
while ($row = $smcFunc['db_fetch_row']($request))
$shown[] = $row[0];
$smcFunc['db_free_result']($request);
}
ssi_fetchPosts($shown);
I have found another solution for what I was trying to accomplish. Problem is solved.
