Template logic: send PM to database record creator?


xtech

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

i would like to know how to insert a link to send a pm to the record creator when displaying a record (inside the display template).

Can you help me?

Regards

this creates a button .. and button will open a popup .. so your members will not navigate away from that page ..

the last part of the href .. " ?to=1 " .. replace 1 with your member/author ID variable ..

 

<a class="ipsButton ipsButton_important ipsButton_Small" data-ipsdialog="" data-ipsdialog-size="medium" data-ipsdialog-title="PM Author" title="PM to the Author" href="https://yoursite.com/messenger/compose/?to=1">PM Author</a>

Thank you! This saves the day! :)

Btw: is there any place at this site where one can look at the API / functions / variables??

Nothing is better then to dive in the templates/css/php/.. itself to see the code working, give it a tweak and see the results ..

Documentation here on IPS site is still minimal .. and mostly without good examples ..
