When I do a search on latest posts, I get a list with column headers:

Topic Title, Forum, Topic Starter, Replies, Views, Last Action

While who started the topic is interesting, I'd more like to see when the topic was started. Think this would be a better value than the "Views" or "Topic Starter" columns.

Would it be possible to add this column to the result or allow the user to choose what columns they see?

Thanks.

 

How about an answer here? Is it outside the limitations of the software?

 

Hover your mouse over the title of the thread, this will tell you when it was started

 

In the search results page? I don't see that.

Edit: I see in when I list the forums manually, but not in the search results page. This would be a great addition to that page as well.

 

your right, I never knew it didn't do that for the search page. Wierd!

Scott?

 

They would probably have to write a mod for the software for this to happen. Not the easiest thing in the world.

 

After breifly looking.. Grantsdale is right. It would require "moding" the code in order to make that happen. I'll look for a pre-made Hack but I dont know if I will find one easily.

 

I'm not familiar with PHP or Invision software in particular, but is the source available?

I suspect it's just another property of the posting which can be extracted as what the manual forum lists do. They're dynamically generated as well, just not as quickly as the search lists so they must share the same code to some extent.

 

PhP makes it more complicated. I do remember searching for a mod for this, but no one had made one and honestly I dont know PHP well enough to do it myself. I'll keep my eyes open.

 

If you have the source I could take a look. As I said earlier, believe it is just a matter of copying the logic from the manual view generation code.

 

honestly off the top of my head, i wouldnt know which file it is that does it. With IPB and PHP, its a bunch of files and they all end up entwined with each other.

I'll try to find out and let you know.
