BradTBP Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 Hello, I have a problem with SuperTopics. I installed per directions and everything seems to work fine unless I add a tag: When I add the tag, the block no longer renders....that's as far as I can determine the problem. Put the tag in error- take it out, it functions. Any thoughts on how to address?

Put the tag in error- take it out, it functions. Any thoughts on how to address? SuperTopics doesn’t care about tags. I would suggest to test the same block with the stock template vs. the SuperTopics template activated. Does it show up with only with the stock template? That would point to a SuperTopics problem. Does it never show up with tags activated? That would point to a faulty blog setup – or maybe caching problems. Edited August 28, 2018 by opentype
sadams101 Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 I am having an issue with SuperTopics where I have created a latest posts feed block that is in my bottom-right area in the right column. If I put any other block below it, the additional blocks are broken and pushed into the center main area--so they are not in the right column. I have 3 items in my SuperTopics post bloc, and have noticed that the last item at the bottom doesn't accept the font formatting that the top 2 items use. Because I was not able to edit any blocks that I added below my SuperTopics post feed in the right column, I created a support ticket with IPB, and they said that there is an issue with SuperTopics that is causing this. I am reporting this as a possible bug.

I looked at your forum page and see SuperTopics, but with customizations. Unless I can’t replicate it on a clean stock installation like my demo page, I won’t invest time looking for bugs, which might have been introduced by someone else change the original code.
sadams101 Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 After closer inspection I believe I found the issue, which was caused by an errant div tag for code I changed. If anyone is interested I have SuperTopics and SuperGrid working with defer image load.
JustinHawk Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Hey @opentype Is it possible to use the first images in the thread regardless of it being an attached or external linked image?

Jordan Miller Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 Is it possible to somehow always tell it to always use the Featured image uploaded in the topic starter's post? Sometimes if we switch an image out, it then displays the next image uploaded by a user. So for example, I post a topic and use an image. A member replies with a photo, let's call it 1.jpg I go back to my post in a week and upload a different image to display as the featured image, however it displays 1.jpg instead of the featured image I just uploaded. Hope that makes sense lol
Jordan Miller Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Going to put this here in the correct thread just for future consideration 🙏 Wondering... would it be possible to somehow force threads to use the image uploaded into the first post as the featured image? When I "feature" topics currently, it uses the first-uploaded image. Often times it uses a GIF or image a user uploaded (versus the one I want to show on the homepage). I have to manually go through each post and remove the GIF the user uploaded, then copy + paste the link instead. When there's a topic with hundreds of replies it's super time consuming 😩 Below are several examples of users uploading a GIF/image before I uploaded the featured image and how it shows on the homepage. Thank you 🙏 Edited August 26, 2020 by breatheheavy
Jordan Miller Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 I have another question @opentype My new 4.5 theme is showing the images in SuperTopics like this: Instead of the full image like this: Not sure why it's showing properly on one theme and not another. Any idea why? Any help would be awesome. 🙏

It means the plugin CSS isn’t work at all. Usually because something was messed up in the custom.css, which you can test by emptying it out temporarily and see if it fixes the issue. Jordan Miller 1
Jordan Miller Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Hey there. @opentype I noticed something today. After upgrading to 4.5 and the latest version of SuperTopics, it appears the featured thumbnail is chosen by the most-recent uploaded image in the topic. What's happening is if I create a topic and feature it and choose the featured image, it gets replaced if someone uploads a GIF/image. Here's an example. They uploaded this GIF in a comment and it showed as the featured image on the homepage instead of the one I uploaded first into the OP. I can't disable member uploads into comments as it's a perk for subscribing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Topics do not have (stock) “featured images”. So they don’t get replaced. They don’t even exist. Edited October 3, 2020 by opentype

This is what I was doing, yet it was displaying the most-recently uploaded image (versus the first uploaded image).

I had to disable the ability to upload images entirely for my premium subscribers. But even still, if they insert an image attachment they uploaded in the past, then the featured image changes to that (versus using the first uploaded image). Please man, can we somehow change the app to use the first uploaded image versus the most-recent? @opentype
opentype Posted October 13, 2020 Author Posted October 13, 2020 3 minutes ago, breatheheavy said: Please man, can we somehow change the app to use the first uploaded image versus the most-recent? It’s not set to use the most recent. It takes the first attachment that IPS returns as “content image” (and IPS controls that function). You can see it on my demo site:This topic has a monument as the first image and then later a street view. The SuperTopics page shows the monument, as expected. So I don’t see anything to change or fix.
alphamale Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) Hi, Just installed this and its working lovely. In the block I have it set to display 6 items. When there is more in the forum that I'm pulling from , can it be set to purge the older ones and always display the newest BUT have a button to show the older ones on a slide , basically click the arrow and it shows older ones etc? Or a button that changes the block from Show 6 to show all? Matt Edited February 25, 2021 by alphamale

Or a button that changes the block from Show 6 to show all? Feed blocks are meant to show just a few entries (latest, featured, and so on). That’s by design. If you want to add a link, you would have to do that yourself, e.g. as a WYSIWYG block.

Thats what I'm a after then. So basically its pulling from a forum "Articles" and showing own the homepage and I want 6 boxes , but to show the latest 6 all the time. So once I have more than 6 articles in that forum , it will always purge the ones older than the latest 6.

If you set the block to show 6 entries and if the ordering is set to “descending” then yes, you will always get the latest 6 entries.

SO I will have the content pulling from a forum called "news & rumours" for example. Say I have 6 entries in and have the settings for 6 entries in your plugin. When I put a 7th post in the news & rumours forum , it will purge the least latest post.
