Show posts / show topics (threads) in profile

[Alex_Hypnose]

Hi,

For SMF 2.0.15 and using a custom theme - Flexive, I would like to implement a few changes in the Profile display template.

Under the Show Posts, it would be nice to have a Show threads / topics
So I would like to add a shortcut that links to forum/profile/?area=showposts;sa=topics;u=1 (unique for each user)

If also possible to switch the view from topic subject + content or just show the topic subject, it would be great!

Thanks!

the first one is easy.   Look at how the link is made for the show topics link within the show posts section.

the second is easy, but not recommended. it actually defeats the very purpose of the list.

Not so easy, that second item, given how show posts and show topics use the same template.

hmmm...   ok, that does make it more difficult that I first thought

(incidentally, the reason I didn't tell you (the OP) exactly where is because I am on a mobile device and don't have easy access to the code at my fingertips)

The first one is a relatively trivial edit to Profile.template.php probably in Themes/default/

Code (find) Select Expand


echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;area=showposts;u=', $context['id_member'], '">', $txt['showPosts'], '</a><br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;area=statistics;u=', $context['id_member'], '">', $txt['statPanel'], '</a>
</p>';


Code (replace) Select Expand


echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;area=showposts;u=', $context['id_member'], '">', $txt['showPosts'], '</a><br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;area=showposts;sa=topics;u=', $context['id_member'], '">', $txt['showTopics'], '</a><br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;area=statistics;u=', $context['id_member'], '">', $txt['statPanel'], '</a>
</p>';

You guys rock!

I made the edit in Themes/default/Profile.template.php and it shows "Topics" for now. Do I need to modify anything else to make it "Show Topics" or "Show threads"?

Thaaaanks!

nothing in SMF is called "a thread" in the default languages... they are called topics.
If you want to change that, you would have to change the text strings in the language file(s)

Thaaaanks!

In your languages/Profile.english.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

$txt['showTopics'] = 'Topics';

Change that to

Code Select Expand

$txt['showTopics'] = 'Show Topics';

Many thanks. If someone has an idea in how to implement the switch the view from topic subject + content or just show the topic subject, please let me know. Great community!
