Forumname & Topic Title in IE browserbar

Posted: Tue Jul 20, 2004 12:36 am

This fixes a long standing annoyance of mine the forum titles and forum topic titles not showing in the IE browser bar. I'm sure there are other versions of this but here's mine it works with the following.

This is for phpnuke7.3 phpbb forums running Chatservs 2.5 Patche Files other will require some edits. Should work with all ports up to the current 2.1.0 with some minor edits

Simply replace the code in your modules/Forums/nukebb.php with this one.

Code:




<?php


/***************************************************************************


 * phpbb2 forums port version 2.1 (c) 2003 - Nuke Cops (http://nukecops.com)


 *


 * Ported by Paul Laudanski (Zhen-Xjell) to phpbb2 standalone 2.0.4.  Test


 * and debugging completed by the Elite Nukers at Nuke Cops: ArtificialIntel,


 * Chatserv, MikeM, sixonetonoffun, Zhen-Xjell.  Thanks to some heavy debug


 * work by AI in Nuke 6.5.


 *


 * You run this package at your sole risk.  Nuke Cops and affiliates cannot


 * be held liable if anything goes wrong.  You are advised to test this


 * package on a development system.  Backup everything before implementing


 * in a production environment.  If something goes wrong, you can always


 * backout and restore your backups.


 *


 * Installing and running this also means you agree to the terms of the AUP 


 * found at Nuke Cops.


 *


 * This is version 2.1 of the phpbb2 forum port for PHP-Nuke.  Work is based


 * on Tom Nitzschner's forum port version 2.0.6.  Tom's 2.0.6 port was based


 * on the phpbb2 standalone version 2.0.3.  Our version 2.1 from Nuke Cops is


 * now reflecting phpbb2 standalone 2.0.4 that fixes some major SQL 


 * injection exploits.

Nice one six Cool

One little thing I notice, when I click on a thread from the forum block on the main nuke index.php, the title won't appear, it only appears when I go via the forum itself. Strange.

Ok since GanjaUK is whining so much about this wink* maybe he'd like to test this version which includes view profile.

Code:




<?php 


if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) { 


    die ("You can't access this file directly..."); 


} 





global $page_title, $db, $user_prefix, $phpbb_root_path, $nuke_root_path, $nuke_file_path, $php_root_dir, $module_name, $pass, $nukename, $name, $file; 


$module_name = "Forums"; 


$nuke_root_path = "modules.php?name=".$module_name; 


$nuke_file_path = "modules.php?name=".$module_name."&file="; 


$phpbb_root_path = "modules/".$module_name."/"; 


$phpbb_root_dir = "./../"; 


require_once("mainfile.php"); 





get_lang($module_name); 





if(isset($f)) { 


$f = intval($f); 


$sql="SELECT forum_name  FROM ".$user_prefix."_bbforums WHERE forum_id='$f' LIMIT 0,1"; 


$result = $db->sql_query($sql); 


while ($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) { 


$fname = $row[forum_name]; 


$pagetitle = "$name-$fname:." ; 


$pagetitle = check_html($pagetitle, nohtml); 


} 


} 





if(isset($t)) { 


$t = intval($t); 


$sql="SELECT topic_title FROM ".$user_prefix."_bbtopics WHERE topic_id='$t' LIMIT 0,1"; 


$result = $db->sql_query($sql); 


    while ($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) { 


$tname = $row[topic_title]; 


$pagetitle = "$name-$file-$tname:." ; 


$pagetitle = check_html($pagetitle, nohtml); 


} 


} 





if(isset($p)) { 


$p = intval($p); 


$sql="SELECT post_subject FROM ".$user_prefix."_bbposts_text WHERE post_id='$p' LIMIT 0,1"; 


$result = $db->sql_query($sql); 


    while ($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) { 


$pname = $row[topic_title]; 


$pagetitle = "$name-$file-$pname:." ; 


$pagetitle = check_html($pagetitle, nohtml); 


} 


} 





if($name=="Forums" && $file=="profile" && $mode=="viewprofile" &&isset($u)) { 


$u = intval($u); 


$sql="SELECT username FROM ".$user_prefix."_users WHERE user_id='$u' LIMIT 0,1"; 


$result = $db->sql_query($sql); 


    while ($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) { 


$uname = $row[username]; 


$pagetitle = "$name-$file-$mode-$uname:." ; 


$pagetitle = check_html($pagetitle, nohtml); 


} 


}





if($name=="Forums" && $file=="index") {


$pagetitle = "$name $file"; 


$pagetitle = check_html($pagetitle, nohtml); 


}





include("header.php"); 





?>

After the initial post here I researched the topic a little and ran into a neat addon SN Dynamic Titles Addon by Greg Schoper which uses this same approach to convert several modules. But the link to the site is down anyone know if this has been continued someplace else? It might be of interest to some of our users?

Edit: Added one more define to it wouldn't want GanjaUK to chew my arse for leaving it out!

LOL, didn't realise I was breaking your balls so much. Neutral

Profile view, that's great. Shame my forum block doesn't agree with this.

Posted: Tue Jul 20, 2004 11:25 pm

Now kids, please play more nicely Smack

Six, if you ever get this fixed ROTFL

I will include it in the 73 final Smile

Posted: Wed Jul 21, 2004 10:29 am

When GanjaUK gets back I'll see if he can send me his Forum block.

Posted: Wed Jul 21, 2004 11:26 am

As a side note i was told both the original file and the modded one have 2 instances of $nukename in the global line.

Posted: Wed Jul 21, 2004 1:43 pm

Thanks CS I missed that completely. And edit has been made.

Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2004 11:55 am

I never was able to find that site of Greg Schoper's so I modified the version I had using some of storebuilders suggestions if you would like to give it a try it can be found here:
http://www.netflake.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdownloaddetails&lid=26

I haven't added more modules but might at a later date. I focused on the forum page titles as that was the biggest problem area discussed.

I haven't tested this on GT'd sites or GT-Next-Gen sites so I'm not sure what the results will be there.

This is what I got from storebuilders' site. It is working great.

I wish I knew what happened to Greg. He had some nice stuff at schoper.net.

Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2004 4:11 pm

I did include the original in the download. I might keep pecking away and come up with something a little better. I liked the other mod that allowed dynamic titles and admin configurable keywords but really I think that for the News system its a must have. I think before King Richard broke from phpnuke he had submitted such a news module and someplace along the line FB it dropped out of the distro.

We can do all this for small to medium sized sites (hack in code) but larger ones probably won't want to trade off the performance as it gets a little query intensive.

I'm open to suggestions and am willing to work with anyone on improving such a system.

And what about us poor schmucks still running 6.5 sixone?
All the cool stuff you guys are coming up with is almost enough to make me want to upgrade.

Posted: Sun Aug 08, 2004 7:00 pm

This should be ok on 6.5 as long the Chatserv's 2.5 patches are applied to it. If not just change the lines at the begining:
if (eregi("dynamic_titles.php",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}

to which ever of the older way you have implemented in your site.
So if the rest of your files use:
if (!eregi("modules.php", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}

Just change it to be the same as the rest of your files.

Posted: Sun Aug 08, 2004 7:32 pm

You rock! I'm gonna try it in the morning. Stand by, coz I've been in alot of trouble here lately.
BTW, as a fair waring, I have been too timid to do Chatserv's patch. I've so many hacks and mods, I would be cross-eyed within an hour.
Neahw, sixone! Laughing

Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2004 4:13 pm

I did a fix for this yesterday. I wasn't getting bbcode stripped out and didn't notice since the site its on isn't what I'd call an active one.

Anyway the updated files in the same place:
