Hello,
It's my firt post, so I try the search fonction before ask your help. Sorry for my english.
I use your simple portal 2.3.3 on my smf 1.1.12 and it's so wonderfull but i'd like to add one modification to sp_recent in PortalBlocks.php to show the post owner. I'm neewbie in php and I don't find hox to to that. Can you help me ?
So the code is :
if ($display == 'compact')
{
foreach ($items as $key => $item)
echo '
<a href="', $item['href'], '">', $item['subject'], '</a> <span class="smalltext">', $txt[525], ' ', $item['poster']['link'], $item['new'] ? '' : ' <a href="' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $item['topic'] . '.msg' . $item['new_from'] . ';topicseen#new" rel="nofollow"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/new.gif" alt="' . $txt[302] . '" border="0" /></a>', '<br />[', $item['time'], ']</span><br />', empty($item['is_last']) ? '<hr />' : '';
}
i try to do this :
if ($display == 'compact')
{
foreach ($items as $key => $item)
echo '
<a href="', $item['href'], '">', $item['subject'], '</a> <span class="smalltext">, $txt[525],',item['owner']['link']'', $txt[525a], ' ', $item['poster']['link'], $item['new'] ? '' : ' <a href="' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $item['topic'] . '.msg' . $item['new_from'] . ';topicseen#new" rel="nofollow"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/new.gif" alt="' . $txt[302] . '" border="0" /></a>', '<br />[', $item['time'], ']</span><br />', empty($item['is_last']) ? '<hr />' : '';
}
$txt[525a] is a text I add in index.french_uft8.php to say "last answer by"
But I don't know how and where define the $item['owner']
I hope you understand me and you'll can help me.
Thanks a lot.

I think I understand you perfectly, Cedric.
I will try to write in simple English, since I know you are a French speaker.
Thank you for searching for some answers first. You know so much now, I can easily explain the rest.
I will show you how I found out the answer. I hope to make it easy for you to do many more customizations in the future.
* 1: What is in $item? Where does $item come from?
$type = 'ssi_recent' . (empty($parameters['type']) ? 'Posts' : 'Topics');
$items = $type($limit, null, $boards, 'array');
So $items = ssi_recentPosts or else $items = ssi_recentTopics.
return ssi_queryPosts($query_where, $query_where_params, $num_recent, 'm.id_msg DESC', $output_method, $limit_body);
// Build the array.
$posts[] = array(
'id' => $row['id_msg'],
'board' => array(
'id' => $row['id_board'],
'name' => $row['board_name'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?board=' . $row['id_board'] . '.0',
'link' => '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?board=' . $row['id_board'] . '.0">' . $row['board_name'] . '</a>'
),
'topic' => $row['id_topic'],
'poster' => array(
'id' => $row['id_member'],
'name' => $row['poster_name'],
'href' => empty($row['id_member']) ? '' : $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['id_member'],
'link' => empty($row['id_member']) ? $row['poster_name'] : '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['id_member'] . '">' . $row['poster_name'] . '</a>'
),
'subject' => $row['subject'],
'short_subject' => shorten_subject($row['subject'], 25),
'preview' => $smcFunc['strlen']($preview) > 128 ? $smcFunc['substr']($preview, 0, 128) . '...' : $preview,
'body' => $row['body'],
'time' => timeformat($row['poster_time']),
'timestamp' => forum_time(true, $row['poster_time']),
'href' => $scripturl . '?topic=' . $row['id_topic'] . '.msg' . $row['id_msg'] . ';topicseen#new',
'link' => '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $row['id_topic'] . '.msg' . $row['id_msg'] . '#msg' . $row['id_msg'] . '" rel="nofollow">' . $row['subject'] . '</a>',
'new' => !empty($row['is_read']),
'is_new' => empty($row['is_read']),
'new_from' => $row['new_from'],
);
}
$smcFunc['db_free_result']($request);
// Just return it.
if ($output_method != 'echo' || empty($posts))
return $posts;
* 2: What do you want from $item?
You can now see that $item holds everything from $posts (ssi_queryPosts put it there)
So you can choose from
- $item['poster']['id']
- $item['poster']['name']
- $item['poster']['href']
- $item['poster']['link']
Now, you choose what to put in youc code.

Thanks so much for your help AngelinaBelle, I understand now what is $item and what I could do with it. I think it is not the good solution to do what I want.
Indeed, $item could'nt have function to declare the name of the owner or first writer of the post.
So, I read SSI.php but I don't find any more solution to resolve my problem. However, in MessageIndex.template.php (a smf file) I found this : ', $topic['first_post']['member']['link'], ' that display the owner of a last topic in a tab.
I don't if I go in the right or wrong way :0
-
$item['poster']['link'] should give you the name and link to the profile of the person who posted the post.
What is it you want?
-
$item['poster']['link'] give me the name and the link to the personn who writed the last post of the topic. I would like to show the name of the person who write the firt post of the topic.
Exemple : sp_recent modification to show the post owner initiated (http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=7752.0) by Cedrict, last reponse by AngelinaBelle (http://simpleportal.net/index.php?action=profile;u=1730) on: Today at 11:19:33 AM

Yes. This is true. You get the poster of the message, not the poster of the topic.
For that, you would need a new SQL statement -- you would have to write a replacement for one of those SSI functions. It could be done, but not quickly by either one of us.
-
Well, thanks you for your help :)
I'll try to resolve my problem with lots of test of coding. I'll continue to post that I 'll find or try.
If anybody else have a part of the solution ... :D

Hi,
After some search, i try to modify ssi_recentTopics in SSI.php, but it seems to not work, the result is a blank page. I don't know where is my mistake.

I would normally test the SQL statement alone before trying to insert it into a complicated page.
Sometimes, it is convenient to just put it in a SimplePortal php page or block, to see what the outcome is, and how long it takes to run.
And whether it just throws a SQL area.
It looks to me like you have a SQL error from leaving out a comma.
Also, you used m.posterName where you wanted ml.posterName (which wouldn't cause an error)
I have not tested your SQL statement. You should give it a good test, to see if you have any other SQL errors.
$request = db_query("
SELECT
m.posterTime, ms.subject, m.ID_TOPIC, m.ID_MEMBER, m.ID_MSG, b.ID_BOARD, b.name AS bName,
IFNULL(mem.realName, m.posterName) AS posterName, " . ($user_info['is_guest'] ? '1 AS isRead, 0 AS new_from' : '
IFNULL(lt.ID_MSG, IFNULL(lmr.ID_MSG, 0)) >= m.ID_MSG_MODIFIED AS isRead,
IFNULL(lt.ID_MSG, IFNULL(lmr.ID_MSG, -1)) + 1 AS new_from') . ", LEFT(m.body, 384) AS body, m.smileysEnabled, m.icon
,
IFNULL(ml.realName, ml.posterName) AS starterName,
FROM ({$db_prefix}messages AS m, {$db_prefix}topics AS t, {$db_prefix}boards AS b, {$db_prefix}messages AS ms)
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}members AS ml ON (ml.ID_MEMBER = t.ID_MEMBER_STARTED)
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}members AS mem ON (mem.ID_MEMBER = m.ID_MEMBER)" . (!$user_info['is_guest'] ? "
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}log_topics AS lt ON (lt.ID_TOPIC = t.ID_TOPIC AND lt.ID_MEMBER = $ID_MEMBER)
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}log_mark_read AS lmr ON (lmr.ID_BOARD = b.ID_BOARD AND lmr.ID_MEMBER = $ID_MEMBER)" : '') . "
WHERE t.ID_LAST_MSG >= " . ($modSettings['maxMsgID'] - 35 * min($num_recent, 5)) . "
AND t.ID_LAST_MSG = m.ID_MSG
AND b.ID_BOARD = t.ID_BOARD" . (empty($exclude_boards) ? '' : "
AND b.ID_BOARD NOT IN (" . implode(', ', $exclude_boards) . ")") . "

Hey, cedrict! Could you do it?
