GK Miller Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Feature request: display forum posts in reverse chronological order (newest first).

I think this is doable. All forums? Some forums. On a totally unrelated note, for those not paying attention, lots of of the regulars around here are doing a collaborative Black Friday thing. Might want to check out the Marketplace topic on that... On another note, the Marketplace is about to under go "change" in the near-ish future. Change is scary and so forth and so on. It will be entertaining for everyone involved.

For my site, All forums would be fine. But it might be more marketable for you to have it selectable by forum.
All Astronauts Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Finished. Will be included in next KS release whenever that happens.
GK Miller Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Wow. That's awesome! Thanks! Any guestimate as to when you'll release next?

Imma doing another thing right now. Something that's been driving me nuts for a long time. So much so that I'm going to charge for this thing, but am including it for free in KS. So that's tonight (with bourbon in hand). So... tonight? Maybe? Soon regardless. 13 minutes ago, SammyS said: Are you talking about the marketplace here?

For you and all others soon the wind will blow openly, brazenly: strong and stout words cast across these digital lands. Beware the wind. Approve of your avatar btw.

All Astronauts Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Alright, that thing has been done and submitted to AndyF for Marketplace approval. Gonna integrate it now with KS and then release. BTW, a quirk, but not a big deal, also not one I'll fix or anything as it isn't me but a function of the system. If you reverse the order of the forum posts so the newest appears first AND now make a search that hits on a post in that topic AND there are more than one page to that topic, it just might be the case where when you click the search result and expect to pop up right to that post that you'll just end up in the topic and your search hit post will be on another page. A small, small ,quirk but thought you should know.
All Astronauts Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) KS 19 Released! That thing I did above. Searchlight! Search results content now have search terms flagged. Customizable too! Ability to set default search results order. Almost certainly some other things I've forgotten about. Yeah, I skipped 18. It happens. Why allowing you to set the default search results order?

Jesse Crystal Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 3 hours ago, All Astronauts said: I don't understand, could you show? On my site: warpigs-online.com I use a custom page as my homepage. On this page I have something similar to facebook wall. With the current settings, a post will only display on the frontpage if it is a 'featured post'. This works great as long as no one responds to the post. The image below shows what happens when the thread is commented on, instead of having a nice wall of well formated posts it essentially becomes a recent posts bar.
All Astronauts Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 And just for clarification, is there a reason you aren't using the topic feed instead? Is it a matter of having the post content displayed? You just want a topic feed to display the post content and/or the post feed to only show the first post. Have I got it?

Edit: I realise that there are blog posts I can use for pages to do just this. The reason I am not using that is I want it to tie into the forums. There is an option for blog posts to add a forums entry but this goes to a single specific subforum defined in the settings. I added a page showing the blog posts: https://www.warpigs-online.com/testing Edited November 21, 2017 by Jesse Crystal

All Astronauts Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 KS/Searchlight users: I've got some tighter CSS to clear up some spill over searchlighting in post dates, etc. KS 20 and SL 1.1 when released, which will be soon. So for now you'll need to tough it out when you search for numbers and on the results page the post dates are lit up
GK Miller Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) I've purchased KS 19 and installed it. I can't get the reverse-posting-order feature to work. Other features seem to be working normally. IPS 4.2.6 no other plugins loaded only default theme loaded Edited November 23, 2017 by GK Miller

iacas Posted November 24, 2017 Posted November 24, 2017 I bought the plugin just today and when it's enabled - even with no changes to the settings - I get an error when I search. Disabling the plugin makes search work immediately again. I can provide the error if you should need it. I don't believe it's a conflict, as I can enable and disable all other plugins in four or five configurations and it's always just whether or not Kitchen Sink is enabled (even, again, if no settings are changed from the default).
All Astronauts Posted November 24, 2017 Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) PM me acp access and I'll take a look. All KS releases are run through two live sites prior to release so I'm curious whats different on your to cause this. Make sure to hit the support tool to wipe caches as well and seeing if that clears anything up. There is one thing I'm aware of, I didn't think it affected 19 but it might. The sort forum posts by newest first will not work on PHP 5, only 7. I have a fix so if you are running PHP 5 give a yell and I'll pass it on, this is because the fix is incompatible with PHP 7 so I'd rather the 5's ask for the patched version instead of me having people randomly installing the wrong version. If you aren't going to use this setting at all carry on, no need for anything. The only changes with 19 regarding search is the addition of the Searchlight feature All that does is adds a javascript mixin on the search results page to throw a flag on the urls, and another javascript controller on the content pages if they were come to via a search result. But nothing in the code itself. Edited November 24, 2017 by All Astronauts
