VBulletin HACK
---- Display the topic size and open a new window on the forum index page
By gogosoft
Show topic size
Cause: This feature is not available in version 1.1.4, and some users use this feature as a reference for viewing topics.
Advantage: you only need to add a few lines of code.
Disadvantage: each time a Forum Index page is displayed, the topic size of the page must be calculated, which may affect the server.
Self-evaluation: this is a small function that is dispensable and practical.
Steps:
Then open forumdisplay. php and find"
If ($ announcement = $ DB_site-> query_first ("SELECT announcementid, userid, startdate, title FROM announcement WHERE startdate <= $ datenow AND enddate> = $ datenow AND (forumid = $ forumid OR forumid =-1) order by startdate desc limit 1 ")){
", Add"
// Hack thread size
$ Size = 0;
$ Announcements = $ DB_site-> query ("SELECT pagetext FROM announcement WHERE startdate <= $ datenow AND enddate> = $ datenow AND (forumid = $ forumid OR forumid =-1) ");
While ($ announce = $ DB_site-> fetch_array ($ announcements) $ size + = strlen ($ announce [pagetext]);
$ Size = iif ($ size> 1024, number_format ($ size/, 1). "K", $ size );
// End Hack thread size
", Find"
While ($ thread = $ DB_site-> fetch_array ($ threads )){
", Add"
// Hack thread size
$ Size = 0;
$ Posts = $ DB_site-> query ("SELECT pagetext FROM post WHERE threadid =". $ thread [threadid]);
While ($ post = $ DB_site-> fetch_array ($ posts) $ size + = strlen ($ post [pagetext]);
$ Size = iif ($ size> 1024, number_format ($ size/, 1). "K", $ size );
// End Hack thread size
", Save and exit;
In control panel, open the forumdisplay template and find

Open new window
Cause: this is very useful for browsing a frequently updated forum. you can easily open a window for many different topics.
Advantage: it is very simple. you only need to modify the template to implement it-it seems that it is not too HACK. :)
Disadvantage: you can only open a new window on the first page of the topic, while you still need to hold down Shift on other pages.
Step: Control Panel-> Template-> Edit, open forumdisplaybit and find"
$ Gotonew $ threadtitle
", Add" after or before $ gotonew ($ gotonew is the "new post" icon)
", Of course, you have to prepare a small icon for the connection to open a new window and upload it to the images directory. Done!
