Can you link to a real example? I have always seen the cutoff dots always fall right after the cutoff word or letter.

There is only one article.. can't miss it

Maybe it looks different when you log in.
To guest it looks like:
-
O my bad, sorry, that board was hidden from guest... look now :-[
-
I see what you mean. I haven't seen that before.
-
ok, lets hope Sinan can take a look at it

The message body seems to be enclosed in
<div align="justify">message body</div> tags. So, when the dots are put afterwards, they have to start on a new line. That's just how browsers are supposed to render a <div>
I don't know what has caused this. Is it in the message body? Or do you have some other mod or customization that has affected PortalArticles or parse_bbc?
-
no other mods that changed PortalArticles or parse_bbc AFAIN
-
How about the post itself? I cannot see the contents of the post, because I don't have any buttons to quote it.
If you look at the html, you will see
<div align="justify">BUSINESS enterprises
PortalArticles doesn't put that in there. Where did it come from?
Do you have the justify bbcode mod installed? Anything that adds or changes bbcode will affect parse_bbc.
-
Well i have a mod that allows the floating of images, that pic in the article is floated left so the text wraps around it.
-
I do not know which mod that is, but I suspect it could be the source of the problem -- it is wrapping the message body in the <div> and </div> tags.
And, since the "..." link is not part of the message body, it must be added after the div. So that means it must start on a new line.
So I think this is not a problem with SimplePortal or with your justified text mod. The two are not designed to work together the way you would like them to do.
One thing you could try is customization of PortalArticles.php
This customization is something you would have to maintain whenever you upgrade SimplePortal. Something like this ought to work.
$row['body'] = parse_bbc($row['body'], $row['smileys_enabled'], $row['id_message']) . '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $row['id_topic'] . '.0" title="' . $row['subject'] . '">...</a>';
$row['body'] .= '[url=' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $row['id_topic'] . '.0" title="' . $row['subject'] . ']...[/url]';
$row['body'] = parse_bbc($row['body'], $row['smileys_enabled'], $row['id_message']) ;
-
Ok, that worked, but generated many errors in the logs, guess i will just live with how it is...
Thanks

I'm sorry I did not think that suggestion through more thouroughly.
Are you ready to mark this one as solved?
We can revisit it again in the future, if you need it.
