1. They seem to have been based on the instructions I included for people without Mystics prefix mod. But vb 3.7.0 has prefix code built in now. If you look at your examples -- and I just tested this on my test installation to verify -- the prefix dropdown is missing.

2. They break the "inline thread title editing" feature. This happened to me too, originally, but I uploaded a fix for this. The problem relates to the "announcebits" portion of the instructions and accidentally duplicating the table id "threadslist." In my fix, I first delete the ID in the table code right above announcebits.

So you might want to withdraw that file for now until that stuff is fixed. But thank you for working on this so quickly!

Yep you're right. I didn't see that. Now it works. You'll notice that I've deleted two small things inside the modification which are really not necessary. So then it looks now we'd like to have

Thanks again, but it's still not quite right I'm afraid! What do you think wasn't necessary?
Because unless I'm reading your XML wrong, your replacements eliminate the announcebits section completely, which means announcements won't show up. Plus, you still didn't take away the extra ID = threadslist from the table code above the announcebits section, which means the thread editing will still not work.

Here's the section I'm talking about:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

The searchstr must include this:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And the replacestr should start with this:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

(Obviously this isn't the whole replacement code.) Note the removed id="threadslist' in the replacement stuff, and the inclusion of $announcebits. These are necessary otherwise announcements and inline thread title editing won't work.

I really do appreciate the help, Mike! I wish I could create TMS files on my own but I'm no php coder by any stretch. Plus I don't use TMS yet! However, I know the above stuff is important for the modification to work correctly.

Damn, seems to be not being my day I never would have guessed. Probaby I have mixed somethings. Never try to make some changes when your Editor does have 12 Template codes next to each other working. Yes you're absolutely right because I forgot the most important. Now I have fiixed it and it works. Gee, what a terrible day. Thank you, Kira You just made my day

BTW: I just saw your BDay. That's almost the same like mine of just 1 day difference

[ThreeD]

thanks for this updated release. The 3.6.x version wasn't working with 3.7!

[cyberbob73]

Thanks for the TMS File ===> Mike-D (alter Freund)

Now I'm not sure what version to use. Your first post still says version 1.0, although there is talking about changes afterwards? Is it now an xml-product import, or do I still have to edit templates?

[kira]

Hi TCB. Sorry, the changes mentioned in my OP are comparing this to the original 3.6.x version. This new 3.7.0 version is unchanged and the instructions are in the text file attached to the OP.

This is indeed a Template Modification, so yes, you need to manually edit a template (forumdisplay in this case). The instructions are pretty easy though! Shouldn't take you more than five - ten minutes, tops.

However, if you use the Template Modification System product addon, you can use the xml link up in Mike D's post. Please note that I can't verify that this works because I don't personally have TMS installed. (I'm weird in that I kinda enjoy modifiying the templates myself, since I think it helps me understand what changes are being made to the system.)

Let me know if you have any problems. Thanks and good luck!

[TCB]

Oh, great.. thanks a lot. The option to put this 'filter' and 'sort' option on top (like yours) or at the bottom of your forum (default) should be standard in vbulletin. In the meantime, me and my members will enjoy this modification

[Hostboard]

One thing I notied betweenthe before and after was the label "Display Options" Is there a way to slip that back in there?

[kira]

Thanks TCB! Glad it's useful, and I agree, this placement seems much more logical than the default -- especially when there are lots of threads within a forum, which means the filtering options are easily missed since they're all the way at the bottom of the screen.

Hostboard: Absolutely! In step #3 of my instructions, you'd just place the following:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Into the code wherever you want. (By default this phrase is "Display Options".)

For example, in the "after" sample image, you can see the area that says "Showing threads 1 of 2." To change this to "Display Options: Showing threads 1 of 2" you'd go to Step #3 of my instructions and look for:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

and change this to:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Does this make sense? Another option might be to place the "Display Options:" text to the left of all the dropdown filter/sort menus. To do this, again using the third step of my instructions (or if you've already installed the template mod you can just search in your edited template):

Search for:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Replace with:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

(You might want to surround the display options phrase with <span class="smallfont"> and </span> if the text looks too big.)

Let me know if this works for you, or if I'm not clear enough.
