new topic button/link on boards?

[steve51184]

would it be possible somehow to have a 'new topic' button next to boards names like where the image is but one for a new topic?

That sounds like a great challenge for a Mod...

Nice!

[steve51184]

yeah i'm ALWAYS making new topics on my forum but it's a bit of a pain to keep going into the board to do so

glad i've got one thumbs up so far

EDIT* (Do the modification in BoardIndex.template.php)

Find:

Code Select Expand


</td>
<td class="info">
<a class="subject" href="', $board['href'], '" name="b', $board['id'], '">', $board['name'], '</a>';




Add After :

Code Select Expand


if ($board['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '
<img src="', $settings['lang_images_url'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt['new'], '" />';

not really sure what that code is suppose to do (add an image?) but i've just tested it but all it did was remove the on some boards?

this code is to just add as image right? that's not what i'm after

[Joker™]

by that code i got this result ( see the pic attached )

also the code above will work for users logged in not for guests

you want that image to redirect you to more recent post of the board ? or something like that?
