Stormlilly Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Hi, Is there a way to create a block that shows all Unanswered Threads (topics which have a post count of zero)? I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks. Edited November 2, 2015 by Stormlilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VizionDev Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 As far as I know, no @Makoto could help you though if you needed a plugin developed for it. Stormlilly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrigan Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 This is a widget: Only problem I have with it is that if there are no topics with 0 replies then the block is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see the script as I don’t have it but it’s enough to use something like: if( ! \count( $topics ) ) { return “”; } Assuming it has a $topics variables array. Place this before the widget output. Edited March 23, 2020 by Adriano Faria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrigan Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Oh I'm fully aware @Adriano Faria I was just stating it for the user as its not that way out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, a thread that has been closed, or a thread where permission is that a person can read it, but not reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, a thread that has been closed, or a thread where permission is that a person can read it, but not reply. The same way as you see in the screenshot. It's just a list of topics which the user is allowed to view and it's using the default topic rows template for the output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, a closed thread with no replies will show up in the view to a user who has permission to view that thread, even though they can't post a reply? For example, if I create an announcement/pinned thread that is closed to replies, a standard user who can view that message will still see it in this view you've created?

Yes, because it's still a thread with 0 replies, BUT I see what you mean 😉 I'll see if I can add a setting for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be nice is to only show threads with zero replies for a given user for threads that they can actually reply to. So, if a thread is archived, or the user only has read but not post permission, or the thread is closed to new replies, etc. This would make it an actionable view: "Hey, here's threads you should consider replying to!" with the goal of getting the number displayed down to zero (everyone gets a response) Would be an instant purchase if it worked this way.
