No we won't update it for 3.2.




Any reason why not? I still cant believe that IPB is lacking in the preview hover. I thought it was common practice now in forums.

Nothing more frustrating then having to click into threads, or as in 3.2, clicking a buttion and waiting for the preview to load.

We have already included a different topic preview in 3.2, this hook was only a test Matt made to experiment some things and he never intended to support/update it for future versions.


I believe Matt said anyone can take it and upgrade it so if someone wants to go ahead is welcome, I'll double check with him to be sure thought.

Maybe I missed it, but I was not seeing a topic hover preview in 3.2 after I upgraded my site to it. There is a clickable preview in the form of a small down arrow to the right of the topic titles though.

I dont mean to be rude, but why do IPB keep the topic preview button? Why cant you drop it and go ahead with the topic preview hover?

Previewing a topic is supposed to be a quick option to see if you want to read it or not. I dont want to have to start pressing buttons waiting for it to pop up.

Maybe its a case that you dont want to copy other software, but topic preview hover I believe is an essential part of a users experience.

Please please reconsider adding this as a proper feature.

The opening topic preview is not as handy because it can only viewed in thread listings whereas a popup would be accessible in additional areas such as the board index. I think this should be updated for 3.2.x if not included by default.



.....was asked.... have done so....
bit of a problem here as the same template this hook calls is actually now used in the click...
which is why it looks so horrid on a 3.2 board.
also loaded up js that ipb already loads everywhere now.
packaging it, will attach right here.... had to duplicate the template and make a module to call it rather than the click one to make it look right in a hover popup(...it WAS updated lol, just not with the desired markup haha >.< )
