Hi this is my first post here... and I came here from some help that m3talc0re gave me in a thread on the SMF forum.

I liked the way that you have the thin coloured bar under your sticky topics and I asked to be shown how to achieve this in my forum.

I did that same method, but instead of using windowbg3, I made it add _sticky (so windowbg_sticky and windowbg2_sticky). I don't use either method now, though. I leave them the same as the others, but separated by a bar (like so: http://forums.webtechnica.net/support-b8.0/ )

m3talc0re - can you let us know how you did that?

I received the following response - which was nice BTW

Find:

foreach ($context['topics'] as $topic)

{

After that, add this:

Code:

if($topic['is_sticky'] && !$stickybar)
{
echo'';
$stickybar = true;
}
else if(!$topic['is_sticky'] && $stickybar && !$normalbar)
{
echo'<tr><td class="catbg" height="6" colspan="', empty($options['display_quick_mod']) ? '6' : '7', '"></td></tr>';
$normalbar = true;
}

and after I did this I have this problem

Is there a way to fill in the last box - I take off the quick mod box and it doesnt fill through the last post (the end box)

Cheers

You see where it says

colspan="', empty($options['display_quick_mod']) ? '6' : '7', '"

Change that 6 to a 7 and that 7 to an 8. I forgot that my own message index template has one less column than smf's (the Author is in the same cell as the topic title).

You know I tried a miriad of different numbers in these spots - but I obviously didnt try that combination

I will try this now

and thanks for the support

Hi

I have noticed my error log full of these

8: Undefined variable: normalbar
File: /home/xxxcas67/public_html/casxxxxxxxx.com/island2/Themes/cast/MessageIndex.template.php Line: 164

about 15,000 entries in fact - lol

Here is the code that I have at line 164

 // No topics.... just say, "sorry bub".
      else
         echo '
               <td class="catbg3" width="100%" colspan="7">', $txt[151], '</td>';

      echo '
            </tr>';

      foreach ($context['topics'] as $topic)
      {
               if($topic['is_sticky'] && !$stickybar)
         {
            echo'';
            $stickybar = true;
         }
        else if(!$topic['is_sticky'] && $stickybar && !$normalbar)
         {
            echo'<tr><td class="catbg" height="6" colspan="', empty($options['display_quick_mod']) ? '7' : '8', '"></td></tr>';
            $normalbar = true;
         }

       echo '
            <tr>
               <td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" align="center" width="5%">
                  <img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/topic/', $topic['class'], '.gif" alt="" />
               </td>
               <td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" align="center" width="4%">
                  <img src="', $topic['first_post']['icon_url'], '" alt="" />
               </td>
               <td class="windowbg' , $topic['is_sticky'] ? '3' : '' , '" valign="middle" ', (!empty($topic['quick_mod']['remove']) ? 'id="topic_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '" onmouseout="mouse_on_div = 0;" onmouseover="mouse_on_div = 1;" ondblclick="modify_topic(\'' . $topic['id'] . '\', \'' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '\', \'' . $context['session_id'] . '\');"' : ''), ' width="42%">
                  ', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '' : '' , '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '' : '';

Red line is line 164


Is there someway to "define" it so that I dont get these errors??

Thanks again for having a look at this for me

Okay, you see the foreach statement? Above it, make sure you have this:

$stickybar = false;

$normalbar = false;

foreach($context['topics'] as $topic)

{
