Switch off jump to first unread?

[Smooth]

Hey guys and gals,

Is there a way to stop the jump to first unread feature when clicking a thread?

I would prefer that it always goes to the first post in the thread please?

Many thanks in advance for your replies.

Clicking the time stamp will load the first post.

Thanks Brogan.

Any way to switch it off altogether so that clicking either takes you to the first post?

You can edit the thread_list_item template to change the link to just point to the thread itself (as it does for guests or when it's read).

Thanks Mike Got the template but my head hurts trying to spot the code Any hints?

Find this:

<a href="{xen:link "threads{xen:if '{$thread.isNew} AND {$thread.haveReadData}', '/unread'}", $thread}"
                    title="{xen:if '{$thread.isNew} AND {$thread.haveReadData}', {xen:phrase go_to_first_unread_message}}"

Replace with this:

<a href="{xen:link threads, $thread}"
                    title="{xen:phrase go_to_first_message_in_thread}"

Try...

in thread_list_item Find:

<a href="{xen:link "threads{xen:if '{$thread.isNew} AND {$thread.haveReadData}', '/unread'}", $thread}"
title="{xen:if '{$thread.isNew} AND {$thread.haveReadData}', {xen:phrase go_to_first_unread_message}}"
class="{xen:if $thread.hasPreview, PreviewTooltip}"
data-previewUrl="{xen:if $thread.hasPreview, {xen:link threads/preview, $thread}}">{xen:helper wrap, $thread.title, 50}</a>
<xen:if is="{$thread.isNew}"><a href="{xen:link threads/unread, $thread}" class="unreadLink" title="{xen:phrase go_to_first_unread_message}"></a></xen:if>

Replace with:

<a href="{xen:link threads, $thread}"
title="{xen:if {$visitor.user_id}, '{xen:phrase go_to_first_message_in_thread}'}"
class="{xen:if $thread.hasPreview, PreviewTooltip}"
data-previewUrl="{xen:if $thread.hasPreview, {xen:link threads/preview, $thread}}">{xen:helper wrap, $thread.title, 50}</a>
<xen:if is="{$thread.isNew}"><a href="{xen:link threads, $thread}" class="unreadLink" title="{xen:if {$visitor.user_id}, '{xen:phrase go_to_first_message_in_thread}'}"></a></xen:if>

I think that should do the trick...

thank you all! Super speedy responses!

I tried them in order... and tried Brogans first... worked an absolute treat.

Thank you!

Russ' is actually more correct, I was being lazy and only did the first half of the code

Have ammended to Russ' instructions.

Thank you both!
