Barand Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 The green background is much better than the mid-grey. BTW, don't like the changed colour for the "new" buttons in the post titles. Let's have the lighter blue back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 For the solved background thing, clear your cache and they'll be green. The icons, well... I don't know. I think they're fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orio Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yeah I also liked the green background in the solved topics. I think that it can replace the "[sOLVED]" part in the titles- the icon and background should be enough imo. But that's more work for the admins so I don't think it's necessary. I think the old "new" (paradox? ) icons were better too. They were more visible and did not blend with sticky titles. Sometimes I miss it in long sticky titles. Except that, the old ones had a much nicer color. Orio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person who coded the mod made it so that if the title starts with "[sOLVED]" then it's solved, so it's not possible. Stupid? Yeah, I know.

.josh Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 TBH I do not think that simply having it green is enough. Average people who come in here having not been here before and read threads like this will not know the difference between a green post and a blue post; there's no reason why anybody should make that logical leap.

ober Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yeah, I think the title change is necessary as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zane Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 The person who coded the mod made it so that if the title starts with "[sOLVED]" then it's solved, so it's not possible. Stupid? Yeah, I know. No, actually I made it so that if the icon that is being used happens to be a check mark (topic_solved)...THEN it's solved. The SOLVED thing can be changed to anything...just change it in Configurations > Mods > Topic Solved > Prefix or actually just change the solved method to just a check mark. but still the prefix still looks pretty aesthetically pleasing. The only thing that sucks about this new background mod...is for some reason it won't work on the recent replies... if you click View replies since last logged in and such.....the solved buttons are the same old none background one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hmm... the old one we used (not coded by you AFAIK) used the prefix to determine its status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zane Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 wait...which mod you talkin about I was just talkin about the background thing...true I didn't code the Topic Solved Mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yup... found it: // Is this topic solved? if ((substr($topic_solved['subject'], 0, $prefixLength) == $modSettings['topic_solved_prefix'] && in_array($modSettings['topic_solved_type'], array(0, 1)) || $topic_solved['icon'] == $modSettings['topic_solved_icon'] && in_array($modSettings['topic_solved_type'], array(0, 2)))) $context['topic_solved'] = true; else $context['topic_solved'] = false; In $sourcedir/Display.php.

wildteen88 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Topic solved can be configured so when a topic is solved it'll either change the Post Title, Post Icon or Both. EDIT: The only thing that sucks about this new background mod...is for some reason it won't work on the recent replies... if you click View replies since last logged in and such.....the solved buttons are the same old none background one This is due to a different template is being used for the Updated Topics page. From what I can tell its handled by Recent.templete.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zane Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 You were right indeed I managed to find it and fix it...wooh! Now just gotta make another mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average people who come in here having not been here before and read threads like this will not know the difference between a green post and a blue post; there's no reason why anybody should make that logical leap. You got a point there. I guess it's better to be left alone as it is. Orio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barand Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 There is a big green checkmark next to it. Couldn't that be added to the icon keys at the bottom to say it means "topic solved" and thus eliminate the need for a logical leap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
