XF 1.1 Blank page after replying to a thread

[Marco Famà]

It happens all the time, and I don't understand why.
If I reply to a thread, I get a total white page, with 0 data retrieved from server.

But in fact, the reply is added properly, because if I refresh the page I suddendly see the whole thread, including my answer.

Do you know why this happens?

Thanks!

Hi Jake!
Sorry for getting back to you here... just got a complain from some users.

They say that the same issue (blank page) is experienced when editing the message.
Do you believe it is possible to change this behavior also for those edited messages?

That would be just great, to me.

Thanks, hope you can help
Marco

That one requires custom code:

XenForo_ViewPublic_Thread_ViewPosts

You would have to add the param to the template call:

		foreach ($this->_params['posts'] AS $postId => $post)
		{
			$output['messagesTemplateHtml']["#post-$postId"] =
				$this->createTemplateObject('post', array_merge($this->_params, array('post' => $post, 'ajaxInsert' => 1)))->render();
		}

This can be made into an addon by extending the view.

Thanks for the reply Jake, although I'm afraid this is something I cannot do.
Tried to find "XenForo_ViewPublic_Thread_ViewPosts" within the ACP but couldn't.

Do you have any tutorial / guide to suggest so that I can implement this by myself?

Thanks mate

It's a PHP file:

library/XenForo/ViewPublic/Thread/ViewPosts.php

 

[Marco Famà]

ooops... sorry!
That works! Stunning... thanks mate

Tried to do the same steps, for me it's not working Maybe I should renew the whole forum somehow after editing the ViewPosts.php ?

I added

, 'ajaxInsert' => 1

into the ViewPosts.php
also I'm using

<xen:if is="{$ajaxInsert}">
 
</xen:if>

I'm not sure I'm using the <xen:if is="{$ajaxInsert}"></xen:if>correctly, probably no.

I'm using it like that:

<xen:if is="{$ajaxInsert}">
 
my google adsense code
 
</xen:if>

after that I have no adsense showed. If I put the <xen:if is="{$ajaxInsert}"></xen:if> at the end of the message template, than I have the same problem - advertisements are on the forum, but the post is disappearing after editing.

p.s.
also I did this

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> thread_reply_new_posts

<xen:if is="{$firstUnshownPost}">
    <li class="newMessagesNotice">{xen:phrase there_more_posts_to_display} <a href="{xen:link posts, $firstUnshownPost}#post-{$firstUnshownPost.post_id}">{xen:phrase view_them}</a></li>
</xen:if>
 
<xen:set var="$ajaxInsert">1</xen:set>
 
<xen:foreach loop="$posts" value="$post">
    <xen:include template="post" />
</xen:foreach>

 

[Jake Bunce]

Well if you want to hide content for ajax inserts then you would add a ! to the condition:

<xen:if is="!{$ajaxInsert}">
 
</xen:if>

Jake thanks a lot, now the content is not disappearing, but have the same problem. After quick editing, the post is gone. I checked everything several times. I've done everything what was written in the thread. Probably I'm too stupid for this

Did you do this?

http://xenforo.com/community/threads/blank-page-after-replying-to-a-thread.36612/page-2#post-427454

 

[RightJob]

Yes I did.

I changed the ViewPosts.php

Now the file looks like:

<?php
 
class XenForo_ViewPublic_Thread_ViewPosts extends XenForo_ViewPublic_Base
{
public function renderHtml()
{
$bbCodeParser = new XenForo_BbCode_Parser(XenForo_BbCode_Formatter_Base::create('Base', array('view' => $this)));
$bbCodeOptions = array(
'states' => array(
'viewAttachments' => $this->_params['canViewAttachments']
)
);
XenForo_ViewPublic_Helper_Message::bbCodeWrapMessages($this->_params['posts'], $bbCodeParser, $bbCodeOptions);
}
 
public function renderJson()
{
$bbCodeParser = new XenForo_BbCode_Parser(XenForo_BbCode_Formatter_Base::create('Base', array('view' => $this)));
$bbCodeOptions = array(
'states' => array(
'viewAttachments' => $this->_params['canViewAttachments']
)
);
XenForo_ViewPublic_Helper_Message::bbCodeWrapMessages($this->_params['posts'], $bbCodeParser, $bbCodeOptions);
 
$output = array('messagesTemplateHtml' => array());
 
foreach ($this->_params['posts'] AS $postId => $post)
{
$output['messagesTemplateHtml']["#post-$postId"] =
$this->createTemplateObject('post', array_merge($this->_params, array('post' => $post, 'ajaxInsert' => 1)))->render();
}
 
$template = $this->createTemplateObject('', array());
 
$output['css'] = $template->getRequiredExternals('css');
$output['js'] = $template->getRequiredExternals('js');
 
return XenForo_ViewRenderer_Json::jsonEncodeForOutput($output);
}
}

I can take a look if you give me admin and FTP access. I will first need to reproduce the problem.

 

[RightJob]

Thank you very much for going to help me! I will sent the login and the password soon.

 

[RightJob]

It looks strange, but I just did it and now it works. Thank you again for going to help me!

Hello friends, again have the same problem But this time when I'm trying to edit the private conversation (direct message to a user). When I'm trying to edit the message I wrote to a user, have the same problem, help please.

I understand that the answer is simple, but I don't know where to fix it

 

[Jake Bunce]

Honestly I would avoid adding javascript ads to post templates. You will avoid these problems which all require specific template and file edits.

 

[RightJob]

Yea, thinking about it. Maybe you are right.
