Magesw Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Great block, only issue I have is when clicking the view comments it goes to yourwebsite.com/page/topic instead of yourwebsite.com/topic which causes a no page found error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Great block, only issue I have is when clicking the view comments it goes to yourwebsite.com/page/topic instead of yourwebsite.com/topic which causes a no page found error. That's going to be something in your SEO FURL settings, I believe. The link is generated using query string. <a href='{parse url="index.php?showtopic={$r['tid']}&event=getnewpost"}' Go to ACP->Settings->System->Search Engine Optimization. What are each of the settings under 'Friendly URL Features' ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 I've got an updated version of this that I'll upload to the marketplace this evening. I re-did the parse url a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiwa Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 This isn't for articles. It is a forum feed block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Would it be possible to add Google +1, Twitter and Facebook Like in each topic feed? Like next to comment button or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Would it be possible to add Google +1, Twitter and Facebook Like in each topic feed? Like next to comment button or something? hmmm... Let me look into it and see what it would take to do that... I've yet to dabble in the social share ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 hmmm... Let me look into it and see what it would take to do that... I've yet to dabble in the social share ring. Here is the example I am talking about.. We can add some social sharing icons, in the line of "View Comments" at the end.http://www.doverlocals.co.uk/ Thank you very much!

Part Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Is there any way to make this just display 1 news articles from my news section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Is there any way to make this just display 1 news articles from my news section? Absolutely... After you import the block, click it in the block list to edit it... Then go to the 'Step 4, Filters'. All the way at the bottom, change the LIMIT to 1.

bosss Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 In your xml file you have soression="IPSMember::makeProfileLink( $r['starter_name'], $r['starter_id'], $r['seo_first_name'] )"} <br /><hr /><br /> <!-- Author --> <b>Posted By: </b>{parse exp what is " <hr /> " - should be " <br /> " ? and last peace of code is </td></td></table> </div></div><br> </foreach> </if> <br /> should this " <br>" was there or maybe "</tr>" instead? regards bosss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 PM'ed you the block code required to make the changes you're looking for. Let me know if you have any issues... FYI, there is a typo... The last </td> is supposed to be a </tr>... However, it won't cause any issues as the browsers are smart enough to close it out when the table is closed, so it won't cause any issues... It will be fixed in the next version that I release... And the <hr> is correct... it's a header row... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosss Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Yes - works perfect and now i use your block. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanserman Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 You say it isn't for articles but you can feed articles onto it. I'm only looking at it for use with articles and agree with a person above, having an option to add an image to this block would make it all the more attractive.

Aiwa Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 I'm sure I can work an image into it for articles. Likely I'll just make a new block specifically for articles. How would you want the image integrated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanserman Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Top right maybe? As I said, the block will probably suit everyone needs for purely blog's... but with the option to use articles, you'll probably find many people asking the question in future! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
