Collapsing Forums Block (xml)

Worker Joined: Dec 05, 2006 Posts: 180

I noticed that when I installed this block that the xml feed link only shows when I show top posters. Is there a way to edit this? like montegos.

edit: oh something else. I think it was guardian that used rdf-nuke for the xml feeds for one of his sites. He also added a link to each forum category. Can we do the same with the forumsbackend.php? If we can, can someone explain how to do this.

edit: doh sorry i didnt see the category for this. Sorry if in wrong place.

FIND:

Code:

   $contentXML = '';


   if (strlen($backendForumsXML)>0) $contentXML = '<center><a href="'.$backendForumsXML.'" title="'.bfcBACKENDTITLE.'"><img src="images/blocks/xmlicon.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></center>';

MOVE AFTER:

Code:

$userTimeZone = ($userTimeZone - $serverTimeZone)*3600;


if (!is_numeric($userTimeZone)) $userTimeZone = 0;

This block of code

Code:

$userTimeZone = ($userTimeZone - $serverTimeZone)*3600;


if (!is_numeric($userTimeZone)) $userTimeZone = 0;





if ($showTopPosters==1 OR $showTopPosters==2) {


   $sql = "SELECT user_id, username, user_posts, user_avatar, user_level, rank_title, rank_id FROM ".$user_prefix."_users u LEFT JOIN ".$user_prefix."_bbranks r on u.user_rank=r.rank_id where username NOT IN ($skipTopPostersUserNames) ORDER BY user_posts DESC LIMIT 0,$showTopPostersNum";


   $result=$db->sql_query($sql);


   $contentXML = '';


   if (strlen($backendForumsXML)>0) $contentXML = '<center><a href="'.$backendForumsXML.'" title="'.bfcBACKENDTITLE.'"><img src="images/blocks/xmlicon.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></center>';

Should now look like

Code:

$userTimeZone = ($userTimeZone - $serverTimeZone)*3600;


if (!is_numeric($userTimeZone)) $userTimeZone = 0;





$contentXML = '';


if (strlen($backendForumsXML)>0) $contentXML = '<center><a href="'.$backendForumsXML.'" title="'.bfcBACKENDTITLE.'"><img src="images/blocks/xmlicon.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></center>';





if ($showTopPosters==1 OR $showTopPosters==2) {


   $sql = "SELECT user_id, username, user_posts, user_avatar, user_level, rank_title, rank_id FROM ".$user_prefix."_users u LEFT JOIN ".$user_prefix."_bbranks r on u.user_rank=r.rank_id where username NOT IN ($skipTopPostersUserNames) ORDER BY user_posts DESC LIMIT 0,$showTopPostersNum";


   $result=$db->sql_query($sql);
