Ok understand ...but I'm sure that could be worked around, maybe in the parsing section of viewtopic.php using a simple if ... else construction.richb wrote:I do not know if it is the same one, but Karen has it installed on the test forum. problem with it is that the number changes order depending on whether a user has his display settings ascending or descending by time posted. So the same post can have a different number for different users. Not very useful if a descending poster references the number for an ascending user or vise versa
By simple, I mean to someone well-versed in php/C syntax (i.e. not me)
Thus, something like if... sort order is descending (aka last post first ... if ($sort... == 'whatever(descending)') > $total_posts ...-1 , or else... $start +1)
That sort of stuff and then just further define in thread/posts section and lastly propagate to the html with another if/else (with mini_post in the else).
I'd suggest pick one mod (whichever you prefer) and then post the issue in the support/discussion threads attached to the mod.
It should be just a couple of tweaks needed (i.e. max 6~8 lines) to account for ascending/descending.
Oldhoghead's workaround to hover on MINI_POST is a pretty good workaround meantime to link to a specific post or archive.
