In frontpage when you publish a news you can click on Read more... link to go to the news page. Is there any way to make the title of news as a link with the same function (linking to that news like Read more...) too?

How?

Best Regards.

well,i dont know your theme but there's your title defined.
So all you have to is i guess is to make your title an active link using the one from original news.

izone,

You would have to change the code that is in your specific theme.php file for function themeindex. For example, if your theme name was DeepBlue, you would edit the file:

rootnuke/themes/DeepBlue/theme.php

The title of the article is formatted somewhere within the function themeindex. I can't get more specific than that because each theme can be different in how it formats the news block.

Hope this helps point you in the right direction.

Ok, Now I have been on this for a few hour and couldn't get it works.

I'm testing it locally and my theme is iCGstation. In my theme.php I have these codes for themeindex:

Code:


/************************************************************/
/* Function themeindex()                                    */
/*                                                          */
/* This function format the stories on the Homepage         */
/************************************************************/

function themeindex ($aid, $informant, $time, $title, $counter, $topic, $thetext, $notes, $morelink, $topicname, $topicimage, $topictext) {
    global $anonymous, $tipath;
    if ($notes != "") {
   $notes = "<br><br><b>"._NOTE."</b> <i>$notes</i>\n";
    } else {
   $notes = "";
    }
    if ("$aid" == "$informant") {
   $content = "$thetext$notes\n";
    } else {
   if($informant != "") {
       $content = "<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&amp;op=userinfo&amp;username=$informant\">$informant</a> ";
   } else {
       $content = "$anonymous ";
   }
   $content .= ""._WRITES." <i>\"$thetext\"</i>$notes\n";
    }
    $posted = ""._POSTEDBY." ";
    $posted .= get_author($aid);
    $posted .= " "._ON." $time $timezone ($counter "._READS.")";
    $tmpl_file = "themes/iCGstation/story_home.html";
    $thefile = implode("", file($tmpl_file));
    $thefile = addslashes($thefile);
    $thefile = "\$r_file=\"".$thefile."\";";
    eval($thefile);
    print $r_file;
}


but I couldn't find anywhere to change to add a link to title. Insted I find these codes in story_home.html:

Code:


<td class="tbtbot"><b></b><span class="gen"><font class="storytitle"><b>$title</b></font></span></td>


and I change these to this:
Code:


<td class="tbtbot"><b></b><span class="gen"><font class="storytitle"><a href="modules.php ?name=News&amp;file=article&amp;sid=$s_sid$r_options"><b>$title</b></a></font></span></td>


(I put a space between modules.php and ? here)

and it almost works. But when I click on title now it sends me to article.html. I guess I have some wrong code in there.

I am not 100% certain, but it looks like you have GTNextgen installed? Try renaming your GT-News.php file in your GoogleTap directory to see if it works without being GT'd. If it does, then you may have an issue with your GT statements. If it doesn't, at least you'll be able to look at other News module links and see what it should be.

montego, thanks again.

Yes I have GT but not GTNextgen, my in/out codes are in header.php (I don't know what ver. of GT it is, do you? ) .

I give it a try and inform you here again.

Unfortunately, I was not GT'd until NextGen, so not sure. However, I would think the same principles would apply and that you will have to find the news related search/replace statements and comment them out so you can see the full links again, and then find the right link structure. This is, of course, if you do not wish to dig through the news module code to find the links! Wink
