View previous topic :: View next topic

I was wondering if is possible to add the "View previous topic :: View next topic" that appears at the top of each thread also at the botton of the page so you wouldn't need to go all the way up to click "Next" or "Previous" topic.

I notice on your forums these options do appear on top and also botton of the page and i just would like to know where should i change to make that available for my forums too.

I use nuke7.8 patached 3.3 and bbtonuke 2.0.22

Thanks,

You need to edit modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/viewtopic_body.tpl. If you use a theme that has a forums folder then you will need to edit that also (themes/YOUR_THEME/forums/viewtopic_body.tpl).

Find code similar to this towards the bottom of the script.

Code:

<td class="gensmall" align="right" valign="top"><strong>{S_WATCH_TOPIC}</strong><br />


{S_AUTH_LIST}</td>

Modify it to this.

Code:

<td class="gensmall" align="right" valign="top"><strong>{S_WATCH_TOPIC}</strong><br />


<a href="{U_VIEW_NEWER_TOPIC}">{L_VIEW_NEXT_TOPIC}</a><br />


<a href="{U_VIEW_OLDER_TOPIC}">{L_VIEW_PREVIOUS_TOPIC}</a><br />


{S_AUTH_LIST}</td>

I am using a third party theme like you said so the code really looks a little different but you gave me where to look.

I had to add this towards the end of the files

Code:




<table class="forumline" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0">


   <tr align="right">


      <td class="catHead" colspan="2" height="28"><span class="nav"><a href="{U_VIEW_OLDER_TOPIC}" class="nav">{L_VIEW_PREVIOUS_TOPIC}</a> :: <a href="{U_VIEW_NEWER_TOPIC}" class="nav">{L_VIEW_NEXT_TOPIC}</a>  </span></td>


   </tr>


</table>

Thanks man,
