  • Are you really looking for a forum? :3:p

  • R_JR_J Ex-Fanboy Munich Admin

    If you are using Bootstrap, create a css rule like that:

    ul.Discussions li.Item {
      position:static;
    }
    

    so that they cannot move anymore!

    Or maybe

    ul.Discussions li.Item::after {
      content: "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"
    }
    











    Just joking...
    That's the way "Recent Discussions" should be interpreted. You might like to look at yourforum.com/categories/discussions in order to get another way of showing discussions.

  • You can sink discussions, that you don't what to move up. it is usually done on an individual basis.

    grep is your friend.

    You should be able to change the sort order via a config option.

    Try adding $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortField'] = 'd.DateInserted'; to your /conf/config.php file.

    You can also change the sort direction with $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortDirection] = 'asc'; // or 'desc'

  • @hgtonight I was able to get it to stop moving but do you know how to do this with the date not update when someone comment to?

  • You would need to sink the discussion on update.

        public function CommentController_BeforeUpdateCommentCount_Hander($Sender, $Args) {
               $Sender->EventArguments['Discussion']['Sink'] = TRUE;
        }
    

    You could put that in a themehook file, I'm not going to help you more than that.

    grep is your friend.

  • I did it @x00 :smiley::smiley::smiley:

    You don't want the last update date shown? I would hook the discussions view:

    public function discussionsController_beforeDiscussionName_handler($sender) {
      $discussion =& $sender->EventArguments['Discussion'];
      $discussion->DateLastComment = $discussion->DateInserted;
    }

    Don't pick files out willy nilly. Add that code to your themehooks or into a new plugin.

    Please read the plugin quick start to understand what is happening: http://docs.vanillaforums.com/developers/plugins/quickstart/

    It should actually be

    public function CommentModel_BeforeUpdateCommentCount_Handler($Sender, $Args) {
         $Sender->EventArguments['Discussion']['Sink'] = TRUE;
    }
    

    grep is your friend.

  • R_JR_J Ex-Fanboy Munich Admin

    And add an "l" to "Hander" and a "$" to Sender ;)

    public function CommentModel_BeforeUpdateCommentCount_Handler($Sender, $Args) {
         $Sender->EventArguments['Discussion']['Sink'] = TRUE;
    }
    
  • indeed.

    grep is your friend.

    Like this?

    <?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();
    
    // Define the plugin:
    $PluginInfo['VizionHooks'] = array(
       'Name' => 'VizionHooks Plugin',
       'Description' => 'VizionHooks Plugin.',
       'Version' => '1.0',
       'Author' => "VizionStudiosMc",
       'AuthorEmail' => 'support@vizionmc.com',
       'AuthorUrl' => 'https://vizionmc.com/',
       'MobileFriendly' => TRUE,
    );
    
    public function discussionsController_beforeDiscussionName_handler($sender) {
      $discussion =& $sender->EventArguments['Discussion'];
      $discussion->DateLastComment = $discussion->DateInserted;
    }
    
    ?>

    Not bad!

    <?php if (!defined('APPLICATION')) exit();
    
    // Define the plugin:
    $PluginInfo['VizionHooks'] = array(
       'Name' => 'VizionHooks Plugin',
       'Description' => 'VizionHooks Plugin. All brain work done by hgtonight - many thanks to him!',
       'Version' => '1.0',
       'Author' => "VizionStudiosMc",
       'AuthorEmail' => 'support@vizionmc.com',
       'AuthorUrl' => 'https://vizionmc.com/',
       'MobileFriendly' => TRUE
    );
    
    class VizionHooksPlugin extends Gdn_Plugin {
      public function discussionsController_beforeDiscussionName_handler($sender) {
        $discussion =& $sender->EventArguments['Discussion'];
        $discussion->DateLastComment = $discussion->DateInserted;
      }
    }
    

    Deleted the "," in line 11
    Added class in line 14
    Deleted closing ?>

    But I do not have a clue if this will be working as you expect it, but since you simply copied @hgtonight, I guess it's working flawlessly

  • The plugin did not work :confused:

    It should not update Most recent by or The time it was post.

    My crystal ball clearly needs some polishing.

    I am confused as to what you are trying to achieve. I believe a screenshot and detailed explanation is in order.
