UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support [ubb6.5] public_forum_summary > lastpostline

hi there,

just made the big update vom 6.01 to 6.5 and had big problems by seing carriagereturn-tags in all files even we unzipped all files correctly. seemed like that ubb6.5 was developed in windows-machines *G*?

but that's not the thing i want to ask:
i was really confused by modifying the public_forum_summary.pl - file:

usually it's like that:

re: mixe download und copyright??
(arenddd)
21-05-2003 14:47

so, what i want to do is putting the time&date-line NEXT to the users name, so it would look like:

re: mixe download und copyright??
(arenddd) 21-05-2003 14:47

as the next step it also would love to add lil' additional words to it like

re: mixe download und copyright??
from (arenddd) posted 21-05-2003 14:47

i also noticed that the subjectline like
re: 11 Drogen an 11 Personen...

is too short for my bbs, i have to much space in the right table-rows that i would love to expand it to more letters. where and how can i handle that?

would it be also possible to click on the users name in this public_forum_summary to check his/her profile?

thanks so far, in advance, any help and comments appreciated, i was so confused by trying to find out how to do that, that i didn't sleep the whole night *g*

did you ask that at ubbdev as well? (if so I missed your post..)

anyhow in public_forum_summary.pl where there is $last_author add before "from", and after add "posted <font size="1" face="$vars_style{FontFace}"><b>$TheDate</b></font>
<font size="1" face="$vars_style{FontFace}" color="$vars_style{TimeColor}">$LatestTime"... then scroll down a bit and where you see that code (I copied it from like 20 lines after $last_author) remove it...

i didn't ask yet on ubbdev.com - and, well, worked perfect, thanks! now the bbs looks MUCH better than before, now i'm just trying to get out some of the bold-tags to make the look&feel more clean...

so, worked like a charme! THANKS!

still asking myself how to expand the subjectline-extract as mentioned above:
for example right now the ubb cuts the subjectline after a bunch of letters and i didn't find any possibility in the cp.cgi to change that.... so maybe you have an idea how to make the subjectline longer 'til it cuts it with the '...'-signs?

4 example:
right now it looks like:

re: Mars Elektronika, 23.05.03,... von
(ndark) am 21-05-2003 16:05

and i would love to change it like
re: Mars Elektronika, 23.05.03, new york... von
(ndark) am 21-05-2003 16:05

you see the difference? just want to expand the subjectline a bit in the public_forum_summary. i kicked out the icons so there's more space for letters and content *g*

best regards!

ubb_forum_summary.cgi
<pre> if (length($last_subject) > 25) {
$last_subject = &GoodNiceTruncate($last_subject, 26);
}</pre>replace 25 with like 40 and 26 with like 41
