Great, thanks man.

 

[Paul B]

Featured featured threads.

*head explodes*

 

[Martok]

Is there a way to disable the expired icon?
Didn't see that on the options page?

@Robby don't forget that the expired badge is only seen by moderators, it's not seen by regular users. I have it enabled as it allows me to see which threads have previously been featured so I can avoid re-featuring them unless I really want to.

 

[Paul B]

Just to add to what @Martok has posted above, it is tied to the feature thread permission.

And the reason it was added is for exactly the reason Martok has posted - to avoid accidental re-featuring.

 

[FredC]

Good info I didn't know that.. Off to re enable it now..

Thanks for the add-on @Brogan , we picked it up awhile back and glad to see it developed into what it is today.

We modified the front output a bit to use Masonry, still a ways to go on styling but it's coming a long .




Quick question is there a conditional I can use to see which node the featured thread is coming from? Sorry if it's been answered.

Something like...
<xen:if is=@ctathreadnode=1">ect...</xen:if>

Hope that makes sense.

I'm trying to add a different mini icon depending on which node the thread gets promoted from.

 

[Paul B]

Well that's different!
Nice job.

The node ID is actually part of the class for each block.



Is that any use?

Ah nice missed that thanks, I may end up ditching this look as I'm normally not a fan but I like experimenting with stuff like this

 

[Paul B]

You can also use $featuredThread.node_id

 

[Russ]

You can also use $featuredThread.node_id

Thanks, this works perfectly:

<xen:if is="{$featuredThread.node_id} == 2">
CAT2
<xen:elseif is="{$featuredThread.node_id} == 3" />
CAT3
<xen:elseif is="{$featuredThread.node_id} == 4" />
CAT4
</xen:if>

Looks great, @Russ

Although, I'm a bit offended that you're put Unchartered underneath a pic of the lovely Edward from Assassin's Creed

 

[Paul B]

I'll just leave these here...

 

[Magic]

You have been busy @Brogan

Keep up the great work.

 

[FredC]

Wow!!!

Nice!

Looking forward for slider feature.

 

[Paul B]

I'm not.
I have to write the code for it

 

[BassMan]

I'll buy you a beer

 

[Paul B]

I'll have a tanker full of lager.

That's tanker, not tankard.

 

[BamBam]

Is there a Screenshot for the Slider, or can they displayed on the Dedicated Page also?

 

[Paul B]

No screenshot yet as it doesn't exist.

The slider can be displayed on the page, forum list and possibly forum view - I haven't decided on the last one yet as I doubt it will be used there.
Likewise for the new posts page.

I could be wrong though...
