How to: Bold text for stuck topics?

[SilentNoise]

Right now the only way to tell the difference between the stuck topics and the regular ones is to look at the little icon beside topic, and IMO, that little graphic isn't THAT telling, so it doesn't really let you know that those items are sticky topics.

Anyway, what I'm asking is, is there a way to make the sticky topics appear in bold text, just to seperate them from the regular topics?

Themes/yourtheme/MessageIndex.template.php:

Find:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

', $topic['first_post']['link'];

Replace:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span', $topic['is_sticky'] ? ' style="font-weight: bold;"' : '', '>', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

while we are on this??

what would be the modification to also make locked topics say.... in italics...

and also would that then mean that a locked sticky topic would be bold and in italics??

[Prone]

Perfect!

Thx [Unknown]

You could do that... just use 'is_locked'.

sooo... if i put this would it be right?

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span', $topic['is_sticky'] ? ' style="font-weight: bold;"' : '', $topic['is_locked'] ? ' style="font-weight: italics;"' : '', '>', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span style="', $topic['is_sticky'] ? 'font-weight: bold;' : '', $topic['is_locked'] ? 'font-weight: italics;' : '', '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

Try that.

italic isn't working for my locked sticky topic for some reason.

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span style="', $topic['is_sticky'] ? 'font-weight: bold;' : '', $topic['is_locked'] ? 'font-weight: italics;' : '', '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

Try that.

Wait a minute there.  Font weight... italics?  I just cleaned it up.  Let's try this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span style="', $topic['is_sticky'] ? 'font-weight: bold;' : '', $topic['is_locked'] ? 'font-style: italic;' : '', '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

How about that?

Wich file would be edited then? The bold sticky did work quite well here, but locked topic isn't quite clear to me.

Any directions for a n00bie on SMF 1.0 RC1 ?

Thanks in advance

Woudl this be right to add "Sticky:" in front of all Sticky topics?:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span', $topic['is_sticky'] ? ' style="font-weight: bold;"' : '', '>Sticky:', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

Not quite...

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span', $topic['is_sticky'] ? ' style="font-weight: bold;">Sticky: ' : '>', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>';

Should do it.

i've been trying to add text string $txt['modlog_ac_stickied'] but with no luck, it's just too confusing

this is what i have for the sticky topic:

Code Auswählen Erweitern


<span style="', $topic['is_sticky'] ? 'font-weight: bold;' : '', $topic['is_locked'] ? 'font-style: italic;' : '', '">', '<span title="', $topic['first_post']['preview'], '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>', '</span>';


please help, thanks

Well, modlog_ac_stickied is only defined in the admin center and mod log, etc.  It's not defined when viewing a topic, because it's not needed.
