View the most recent posts on the forum.

[midkin]

Hello there. I would like to disable/hide the "View the most recent posts on the forum.".
My forum is in greek and it says. View the last 10 posts.

I don't care if my users can see those last posts. But i do care that my visitors(non register members) can!

So i want to ether disable this function or just hide it from visitors. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

Noone?

Hi, sorry about the delay

In the Admin CP > Current Theme > Number of recent posts to display on board index:

Set that to 0 to disable it.

[midkin]

This is not what i mean.

What i want to do is hide the "View the most recent posts on the forum." that is on the forum stats, or even disable all forum stats.

Can i do this?

You can remove the "View the most recent posts" from index.template.php and if you want them to be removed from the forum stats then boardindex.template.php is the file for it..

[midkin]

Could you tell me what exactly should i do?

[Hassan_the best]

I am not understanding you correctly.If you want this

to remove then you can do by

To remove just the "View the most recent posts on the forum." link in that spot. In BoardIndex.php of the theme you are using, Look for:

Code Select Expand


<span class="middletext">
', $context['common_stats']['total_posts'], ' ', $txt[95], ' ', $txt['smf88'], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_topics'], ' ', $txt[64], ' ', $txt[525], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_members'], ' ', $txt[19], '. ', $txt[656], ': <b> ', $context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'], '</b>
<br /> ' . $txt[659] . ': <b>&quot;' . $context['latest_post']['link'] . '&quot;</b>  ( ' . $context['latest_post']['time'] . ' )<br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=recent">', $txt[234], '</a>', $context['show_stats'] ? '<br />
<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=stats">' . $txt['smf223'] . '</a>' : '', '
</span>


And replace it with:

Code Select Expand


<span class="middletext">
', $context['common_stats']['total_posts'], ' ', $txt[95], ' ', $txt['smf88'], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_topics'], ' ', $txt[64], ' ', $txt[525], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_members'], ' ', $txt[19], '.

<br /> ' . $txt[659] . ': <b>&quot;' . $context['latest_post']['link'] . '&quot;</b>  ( ' . $context['latest_post']['time'] . ' )
', $context['show_stats'] ? '<br /><a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=stats">' . $txt['smf223'] . '</a>' : '', '
</span>


@ midkin

[midkin]

[Kays]

Good, I'll mark it as solved then.

Thanks for your help

Look in BoardIndex.template.php. That looks like index.template.php.

Search for $txt[659]

[Satfreak]

I have SMF 2.0 RC2 and also cant find that lines,this is my

Boardindex.php,please can you find that lines and replace,

Regards,..

[Kays]

What I had posted there was for 1.1 since that's what the template looked like. For 2.0 look for:

Code Select Expand

Satfreak, I've made the change to your copy.

[Satfreak]

Tnx my friend,

now works whell,.

[Kays]

Good.

[Forum Guy]

Probably a very good idea to have a check-box option for this in the admin CP  section guest permissions

I too find that especially guests, by default, should NOT be able to see recent posts listed (or any stats)

I think so also.  Great idea!

[Forum Guy]

just skimmed the code for disabling it in RC3 and there is an easy way - just uncheck Show statistics on board index: in Current Theme and it is gone for good.

I know this is an old topic and I apologize. But I would really like to be able to shut off "view most recent posts on the forum" for guests.

Can anyone help?
Thank you for your time.

I just noticed this was for version 2. I found this topic in a google search, anyone know how to do this in 1.11?

Thank you.
