How to fix it.

SMF 2.0.15 , PHP 7.1.15

It seems that in PHP 7.1, a Warning will be emitted if a non-numeric value is encountered.

Here is the relevant portion that pertains to the Warning notice you are getting:

New E_WARNING and E_NOTICE errors have been introduced when invalid strings are coerced using operators expecting numbers or their assignment equivalents. An E_NOTICE is emitted when the string begins with a numeric value but contains trailing non-numeric characters, and an E_WARNING is emitted when the string does not contain a numeric value.

working on it later, should be easy to fix.

@minimono, how did you get to this url -> https://.../index.php?action=forum;start=%1
because the % character shouldn't be there and thats why you are getting the error, whats your forum url?

Here's the fix for now:

in Sources/RecentForumTopics.php

Find around line 30

Code (find) Select Expand


if (isset($_REQUEST['start']) && $_REQUEST['start'] > 95)
$_REQUEST['start'] = 95;


Add this code after it:

Code (add after) Select Expand


// Make sure start are numbers.
if (isset($_REQUEST['start']))
{
// Make sure its a string and not something else like an array
$_REQUEST['start'] = (string) $_REQUEST['start'];

// If there's a slash in it, we've got a start value! (old, compatible links.)
if (strpos($_REQUEST['start'], '/') !== false)
list ($_REQUEST['start'], $_REQUEST['start']) = explode('/', $_REQUEST['start']);

// Now make absolutely sure it's a number.
$_REQUEST['start'] = isset($_REQUEST['start']) ? (int) $_REQUEST['start'] : 0;
}
// Well, start is going to be a number no matter what.
else
$_REQUEST['start'] = 0;

Hi, very nice mod. I like how it exposes some of the topics immediately without having to dig. Just one issue - it's not responsive when viewed on a phone (if you have the responsive curve mod installed). Would it be hard to fix?

I've implemented this mod and it's working fine on my 2.0.15 site. Love the mod. Has a very nicely structured layout with paging for the list of recent topics.

One que (or issue). During our migration (from IPBoard), we did a lot of review/re-formatting of some posts (due to HTML/BBCode compatibility) and those topics are being shown in the list of recent topics (even tho there is no "reply" to those topics since the migration). This resulted in a rather long list of recent topics (13 pages in total).

Is there a way for us to reset the list (flush some cut-off date?) so that this list starts with zero topics (yeah we might lose one or two "real" recent topics, but that's fine for us)? TQ

The recent forum topics are getting renewed(updated) when there are made new topics or replies, you only have to wait for that if it has about 100 new ones, if you have a busy forums that will happen within a week then or so, its better to wait for that instead of implenting a code to query after certain date. just my view on it.

I use Recent Forum Topics Extended.

I get too many errors in the error log.

Undefined index: poster_time

you can delete/remove that line entirely(1250), it has no function or purpose.

Thanks.
Waiting for the official version.

Working nicely on 2.0.15.

Hi!

IMHO this is one of the greatest SMF mods!
Many thanks for sharing it with us!

Recently one of my moderators has noticed that on some mobile devices the RFT table extends past the right edge of the container. Please, take a look at my screenshot taken from the Chrome DevTools.
I'm using the default SMF template.

Is there anything I can do to fit the table to the main content section?

[GigaWatt]

Did this start happening over night or was it always like this?

[Pipke]

Can you provide a link to your forum, so we can see this behavior in action. At GigaWatt's site this looks all fine.
