Hi,

I've tried to make a new thread field (to add the thread description using xthreads) so I've selected all the different forums I have in the "applicable forums" list. However, I can't select all the forums in the same time.
The maximum number I can select is 85. If I go with a higher number they are just ignored and when I go back to edit this thread field, I can see that they are not selected.
The problem is that I can't divid the selection in two differents thread field, in this case i obtained the following error: "The field key you have chosen is already in use for another field. Please choose an unused unique key."

How could I manage to select all the forums ?

Read the description text for the option:

Quote:Applicable Forums
Select the forums where this custom thread field will be used. Leave blank (select none) to make this field apply to all forums.

Rôô, now you say it, I see it clearly.

Thanks for your reply.

As in forumdisplay_newthread template for the theme? If so the code is:

Code:

<div class="bigbutton"><a href="newthread.php?fid={$fid}"><i style="font-size: 14px;" class="fa fa-file-text fa-fw"></i> {$lang->xstyled_newthread}</a></div>

---

And adding {$threadfields['desc']} or {$extra_threadfields} anywhere in that doesn't seem to help.


Never mind, im getting there. Might be back with other issues later

Aight well I got it working for the most part. But know I have this bug:



The layout of the forum has been stretched. Particularly with this plugin ProStats for 1.8



It appears some option 'numratings' has been inserted into these tables?

I can see when you go to make a new thread, this 'numthreads' is there as plan text:



Again it appears in the table data for this page. Has xThreads added this somewhere? Or knocked some code outta place to do with this?


I had xthreads 1.65 installed, but then saw you had 1.66 available. I disabled then uninstalled it thinking that would solve the problem, obviously not...


Any ideas? I'm not sure where to look.

I mentioned a link to all the template edits XThreads makes in the post at the top of this page.
If there are any edits outside of this list, you need to remove them.

Also look at the actual HTML (View -> Source), not what the web dev tools show and map the code back to their corresponding templates.

No, I said newthread, not forumdisplay_newthread.

Well I figured out where it is coming from. This code:

PHP Code:

<option value="numratings" {$sortsel['numratings']}>{$lang->sort_by_numratings}</option>

---

Is being added to all my global templates. But only when I have xthreads enabled. It's either xthreads adding it (but what do I know, honestly) or xthreads is clashing with another plugin that's adding it or something.

I don't know. Any ideas?

Much thanks!

XThreads adds that code to the end of the forumdisplay_threadlist_sortrating template only.
If you can show how to make it add it to any other template from a clean install, I can take a look at it.

I have a problem when I try to use xthreads for thread description.
I'm following the tutorial from this topic, however, after the step 4, I have already some errors.
It appears when I want to make a new thread, the following appear:
   

The code is:

Code:

<trclass="xthreads_inputrow"><tdclass="{$altbg}"width="20%"><strong>{$tf['title']}</strong></td><tdclass="{$altbg}">{$inputfield}<smallstyle="display:block;">{$tf['desc']}</small></td></tr><optionvalue="numratings"{$sortsel['numratings']}>{$lang->sort_by_numratings}</option>

---

It seems that the spaces in the xthread code are not kept.

The template "post_threadfields_inputrow" is good however:

Code:

<tr class="xthreads_inputrow"> <td class="{$altbg}" width="20%"><strong>{$tf['title']}</strong></td> <td class="{$altbg}">{$inputfield}<small style="display: block;">{$tf['desc']}</small></td> </tr>

---

In the template "newthread" there is the code included:

Code:

... </tr> {$extra_threadfields}{$posticons} <tr> ...

---

I have removed all my others plugins, I have also reverted all files to their initial state. The problem is still there.

I do not know if it is really related to xthread or to an other parameter of configuration on my forum as I have also a strange problem with another plugin.

Edit:
I forget to mention, the code source displayed is the following:

Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 190 191 192 193 194 195 196 197 198 199 200 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 218 219 220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 228 229 230 231 232 233 234 235 236 237 238 239 240 241 242 243 244 245 246 247 248 249 250 251 252 253 254 255 256 257 258 259 260 261 262 263 264 265 266 267 268 269 270 271 272 273 274 275 276 277 278 279 280 281 282 283 284 285 286 287 288 289 290 291 292 293
