Dynamic Titles - Forums not showing right

Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 5:24 am

Greetings All,
I just noticed a problem with my forums.

If I go to the forums - then the forums name - then the post in the title I get

site name - forums name - post title for the page title.

If I go to the post itself through my scrolling block all I get is

site name -

That makes not sence. Here is my dynamic titles that deals with the forums.....anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

Code:

if($name=="Forums"){ 


global $p,$t,$forum,$f; 


$newpagetitle = "Site Name - Site Slogon"; 


    if($p) { 


        $sql = "SELECT post_subject, post_id FROM ".$prefix."_bbposts_text WHERE post_id='$p'"; 


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


        $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result); 


        $title = $row[post_subject]; 


        $post = $row[post_id]; 





        $newpagetitle = "Site Name - $title"; 


    } 


    if($t) { 


        $sql = "SELECT topic_title, forum_id FROM ".$prefix."_bbtopics WHERE topic_id='$t'"; 


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


        $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result); 


        $title = $row[topic_title]; 


        $forum = $row[forum_id]; 





        $sql = "SELECT forum_name FROM ".$prefix."_bbforums WHERE forum_id='$forum'"; 


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


        $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result); 


        $forum = $row[forum_name]; 


        $newpagetitle = "Site Name - $forum $item_delim $title"; 


    } 


    elseif($f) { 


        $sql = "SELECT forum_name FROM ".$prefix."_bbforums WHERE forum_id='$f'"; 


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


        $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result); 


        $forum = $row[forum_name]; 


        $newpagetitle = "Site Name $item_delim $forum"; 


    } 


}

Yes, send me the link. I wrote the version that is in RN (well, much of the original code was already written), so I have the most familiarity with it ATM.

Dawg, have not had a chance to look yet, but are you using my version of Dynamic Titles that is on my site? It is now at version 1.1.0.

The issue, I believe, without having had a chance to look at it in detail yet, is coming from the Quick Reply feature that is not setting the post Subject. It is being stored on the DB as blank.

My 1.1.0 version actually takes care of this by looking at previous forum posts until a subject can be found. You might want to give that a try.
