I need a way for a redirection to the latest new comment by clicking '%number% new'*

johansonlocker

after enter into the theme by click it is focused by the last comment and #Item signature is added to the url .

How to make the entering without focusing to last comment?

For that, open the /conf/config.php in your Vanilla forum directory, and add this line at the end of the file:

$Configuration['Vanilla']['Comments']['AutoOffset'] = FALSE;

It doesnt go to the last comment.... it goes to the last comment you read.

Well, I really need a way for a redirection to the latest new comment by clicking '%number% new' notification.

How to do this?

New comments in discussion list (and (New comments in Bookmarked))

???

////////////////////////////////////////

1 $Configuration['Vanilla']['Comments']['AutoOffset'] = TRUE;

further in file: forum\applications\vanilla\views\discussions\helper_functions.php
function WriteDiscussion(

2 change $DiscussionUrlNew = '/discussion/' setting to
$DiscussionUrlNew='/forum/discussion/'.

3 adding definition

$DiscussionUrl = '/discussion/'.$Discussion->DiscussionID.'/'.Gdn_Format::Url($Discussion->Name);

4

if ($Session->IsValid() && $Discussion->CountUnreadComments > 0) echo '<strong><a href="'.$DiscussionUrlNew.'">'.Plural($Discussion->CountUnreadComments, '%s New', '%s New Plural').'</a></strong>';

in file: forum\applications\vanilla\controllers\class.discussioncontroller.php
comment lines

         //if ($this->Discussion->CountCommentWatch > 0 && $OffsetProvided == '')
         //   $this->AddDefinition('LocationHash', '#Item_'.$this->Discussion->CountCommentWatch);

bugs, bugs...

must be
1 paragraph in previous scheme changed to false
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Comments']['AutoOffset'] = FALSE;
5 paragraph - uncomment .

So 2-3 paragraphs make almost all right.
in this case the posted comment is positioned on page.
and a click on NEWS "tries" positioning on #Item
and a click on the Discussion opens it from startpost

But

UNproperly counting of news works now.

I make a new post in Safari - Get @1 new@ notification in Opera.
Click on @1 new@ - go to new post. then go to discussion list and get 15 new posts notification... ((((((

johansonlocker

about 4 paragraph - making @Url-New@ for a link in the notification.

in class.discussioncontroller.php the $offset are counted and $limit.
then these variables are used in

//Set the canonical url to have the proper page title.
      $this->CanonicalUrl(Url(ConcatSep('/', 'discussion/'.$this->Discussion->DiscussionID.'/'. Gdn_Format::Url($this->Discussion->Name), PageNumber($this->Offset, $Limit, TRUE)), TRUE));

so in 4th paragraph the same urls with pages must be used ....

Futher investigations....

in the Discussions List I set every discussion to be ended with "\p1" to show the first page by click. and latest comments ar shown by clicking the "new"-notification.

Clicking the p1-ended-discussion erases off $CountCommentWatch to the start of second page .
