Nathan Explosion Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Pending approval: IMPORTANT INFORMATION: This plugin was created to extend functionality provided by @newbie LAC's existing (NB40) Separate Pinned Topics plugin and therefore requires that you have already purchased and use that plugin. Do not purchase this plugin if you are not already using the above plugin. What does this plugin do? Using jQuery, provides functionality for the 'Pinned Topics' section to be automatically collapsed when a forum's index page is loaded. Admin has the ability to ensure that 'Featured' and 'Unread' pinned topics are always displayed. control the speed at which the expand/collapse effect takes place (slow or fast) User can click on the 'Pinned Topics' header to expand/collapse the listing of topics. Note: This plugin has been developed with the IPS default theme in mind, and has not been tested on any other themes. If you are using a theme which has made changes to the html upon which this plugin acts, and it fails to work as a result, then please post in the Support Topic and provide a link to your site for review.

CB_Pam Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Hey! Thanks for making this, I just saw the topic where you said you'd made it. So happy! The pinned topics collapse and that's brilliant, but I can't UNcollapse them if I wanted to read something - the section will just immediately collapse back because I have no unread pinned topics. This happens in both default theme and my custom theme. Edited July 1, 2018 by CB_Pam
CB_Pam Posted July 2, 2018 Posted July 2, 2018 So also this happens to any page that doesn't have pinned topics (such as any page besides the first one in a forum). This doesn't happen if I disable this plugin.

Hmm...based on the following, it would appear that the JS code is running twice (adding the '(display X of Y)' information to Newbie's 'Pinned topics' header) I've spotted a couple of changes I can make to the code in general - could you send me ACP credentials so I can upload a new version of the plugin and test it out?

CB_Pam Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 for anyone following along, @Nathan Explosionfixed both issues I identifed and did so quickly. This is an amazing little plugin!
Cyboman Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 Hi, I don't know why, but it isn't working for me, not even in the IPS default design... I have "separate pinned topics" installed and activated -> they are showing separated I have "collapse pinned topics" installed and activated -> I've set to show both unread and featured, fast On the frontend I can only see the following (but nothing is animated) -> the "pinned topics title bar" shows -> Pinned Topics (displaying 0 of 0) (displaying 0 of 0) What am I doing wrong?
Nathan Explosion Posted July 21, 2018 Author Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) You need to wait for me to release the fix for the issue (see the person before you with the same issue? ? ) when I have tidied it up. Or you give me ACP access and I install the untidied version (pop them over in PM) Edited July 21, 2018 by Nathan Explosion Cyboman 1
Cyboman Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Great thanks, I will wait for the new fix then. Nathan Explosion 1
alexxis Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Hi @Nathan Explosion, your plugin will collapse the pinned topics on all forums categories? or only in those places, where we have manually clicked on the collapsing button?

There is no functionality to include/exclude specific forums - no plans to put one in new features either, unless the plugin proves more popular.

Nathan Explosion Posted December 14, 2018 Author Posted December 14, 2018 What's new in v1.0.3 added ability to control in which forums the plugin is in effect.
Cyboman Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 would be great, if "displaying…" (that is shown for collapsed topics on top) can be a language string, that can be translated
Nathan Explosion Posted January 18, 2019 Author Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Is it not working for you? Will improve the language string if there is another bug release, but it's already possible for you to change it as it is now. Edited January 18, 2019 by Nathan Explosion Cyboman 1

Nathan Explosion Posted January 28, 2019 Author Posted January 28, 2019 Notice regarding IPS 4.4.0 beta 1 This plugin has been tested against IPS 4.4.0 beta 1 and works as expected. If you decide to update to IPS 4.4.0 beta 1 and find a bug with this plugin then please feel free to report it here but do not expect a fix for the bug until IPS 4.4.0 has exited the beta/release candidate process and has been fully released.
Nathan Explosion Posted June 22, 2021 Author Posted June 22, 2021 v1.0.4 has been submitted for approval with no functional changes, purely to mark as compatible with IPS 4.6
James101 Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 @Nathan Explosion - Currently the plugin hides pinned topics by default. Is it possible to have a setting where it will show the pinned topics by default and users can hide it by toggling? or have an option to select which forums would be enabled for this?
Nathan Explosion Posted July 1, 2021 Author Posted July 1, 2021 These are the settings already available: 12 minutes ago, James101 said: Is it possible to have a setting where it will show the pinned topics by default Do you mean pinned topics are shown regardless of being featured/unread? 13 minutes ago, James101 said: have an option to select which forums would be enabled for this? Enabled for 'this' being the plugin (already possible) or the new feature you are requesting (and I am clarifying)?
James101 Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Hey, I am sorry, I somehow missed those setting options. It is what I wanted, thank you!
James101 Posted July 4, 2021 Posted July 4, 2021 Hi @Nathan Explosion - I have been using this one for a few days now and immediately a few users pointed out that the option to show more topics is kinda confusing. Is it possible to better show/tell users to click on the arrow to expand the list or something? It does not seem obvious or maybe its because its on a dark theme - http://prntscr.com/18dtyh1 It only says 'Click to expand' when hovering on it.. Thank you!
Nathan Explosion Posted July 4, 2021 Author Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) I'll take a look at some point. Edited July 4, 2021 by Nathan Explosion
