UseBB Community

This changes the standard forum list view around to look like it does at UseBB Zone ( http://usebbzone.com/index.php to see a demo ).

I am placing this in tips & tricks, because it is not a modification, but a slight alteration to the UseBB installation.

Find in forumlist.tpl.php:

$templates['cat_header'] = '
	<table class="maintable">
		<tr>
			<td colspan="5" class="forumcat"><a href="{cat_url}" name="{cat_anchor}" rel="nofollow">&raquo;</a> {cat_name}</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<th class="icon"></th>
			<th>{l_Forum}</th>
			<th class="count">{l_Topics}</th>
			<th class="count">{l_Posts}</th>
			<th class="lastpostinfo">{l_LatestPost}</th>
		</tr>
';

$templates['forum'] = '
		<tr>
			<td class="icon"><img src="{img_dir}{forum_icon}" alt="{forum_status}" /></td>
			<td><div class="forumname">{forum_name}</div><div class="forumdescr">{forum_descr}</div></td>
			<td class="count">{total_topics}</td>
			<td class="count">{total_posts}</td>
			<td class="lastpostinfo">{latest_post}<div>{by_author}</div><div>{on_date}</div></td>
		</tr>
';

Replace with:

$templates['cat_header'] = '
	<table class="maintable">
		<tr>
			<td colspan="3" class="forumcat"><a href="{cat_url}" name="{cat_anchor}" rel="nofollow">&raquo;</a> {cat_name}</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<th class="icon"></th>
			<th>{l_Forum}</th>
			<th class="count">{l_Topics} / {l_Posts}</th>
		</tr>
';

$templates['forum'] = '
		<tr>
			<td class="icon" rowspan="2"><img src="{img_dir}{forum_icon}" alt="{forum_status}" /></td>
			<td><div class="forumname">{forum_name}</div><div class="forumdescr">{forum_descr}</div></td>
			<td class="count">{total_topics} / {total_posts}</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td class="lastpostinfo" colspan="3"><em>Latest Post:</em> {latest_post} {by_author} {on_date}</td>
		</tr>
';

Feel free to play around with it and create your own look as well. .

Thanks Gaia,

To make this line right justified, I did:

<td class="lastpostinfo" colspan="3"><p align="right"><em>Latest Post:</em> {latest_post} {by_author} {on_date}</p></td>

Does that look right to you?

Probably something like this would be more efficient.

<td class="lastpostinfo" colspan="3" style="text-align:right;"><em>Latest Post:</em> {latest_post} {by_author} {on_date}</td>
