XPtsp-STYLE BOARD LIST v1.7
Written by PI3KUM -> Forked By Dougiefresh



Introduction
This mod started when I discovered that it wasn't possible to install both the Separate Replies and Views Column v1.9.2 and Vbulletin Style Board Index v1.9.2) mods together without conflict between the two.  I merged the two mods together and made a few additional changes of my own in order to make it more my own, such as swapping the topics and replies columns in the BoardIndex and MessageIndex pages.  I also added some additional stuff to the listings like preview of the last post, as well as modified the Unread and Unread Recent templates to seperate the replies and views columns for a more unified appearance.

Admin Settings
SMF 2.0: There is a new setting called Preview the first post in MessageIndex? under Admin -> Configuration -> Modification Settings.

Forks of Original Mods
o Separate Replies and Views Column v1.9.2
o Vbulletin Style Board Index v1.9.2

Related Discussions
o [TIP]vBulletin style messageindex links

Compatibility Notes
This mod was tested on SMF 2.0.14, but should work on SMF 2.0 and up, as well as SMF 2.1 RC2.  SMF 1.x is not and will not be supported.

This mod DOES NOT work on SMF 2.0.x's Core theme, as many of the modifications that this mod makes are already present in the Core theme.

This mod should be installed AFTER the Responsive Curve mod, if both are to be used.

1st test. Doesn't like the flatline theme.

Thank you, been waiting for this for a while!  ;D

Uploaded v1.2 - December 9th, 2015
o Made theme setting change optional, as it may already be set in the theme by default.




@njtweb: It appears that the theme setting may have already been changed in your copy of the flatline theme, so I made that particular operation optional for version 1.2....  Thank for the bug report, njtweb!

njtweb

Working, looks great except for one minor bar issue. On the topic view page, the replies/views/last post header bar seems to have shrunken up and changed the placement of each header title.

dougiefresh

I just installed the flatline theme onto my clean SMF 2.0.11 forum, then this mod was installed.  The modified flatline theme is correct on my system. 

Your picture suggests either that (1) that something wasn't changed properly within the MessageIndex.template.php file ---OR--- (2) that you have other mods that have changed the same area(s), and somehow conflict without producing an error message.....

njtweb

Thanks Dougie, probably as you suggest, a different mod affecting it. I uninstalled the mod, as I wouldn't have the slightest idea where to look or assume which mod might be affecting it.

However, great job on resurrecting the mod!  :D

Steve

Maybe if you listed your mods here something might jump out at dougie as a possible conflict? :)
DO NOT pm me for support!

The SRAVC mod could definitely conflict, as this mod is a fork of the original mod.  The other mod could also have an effect.....

SRAVC - Separate Replies And Views Column   1.9.4
Views and Replies + Table on Recent Posts   1.2.1

njtweb

That wasn't it,

I removed this, SRAVC - Separate Replies And Views Column   1.9.4, it wasn't even working to begin with. I must've installed a while ago and forgot to remove it.


This is only for the recent posts on index, it doesn't affect the rest of the board, Views and Replies + Table on Recent Posts   1.2.1

dougiefresh

Well, my mod makes direct alterations to the template files, whereas SRAVC makes alterations to the HTML output once the forum is done outputting....  Personally, it's probably much cleaner, but can easily give the impression that it doesn't work if the alterations it tries to "make" are already done....

njtweb

No worries. Probably the theme, I'm not fretting. You do awesome work, friend.

Hey Dougie!

Would you be able to make a version that works with Responsive Curve? :)
