Little template suggestion

[MattM]

In earlier versions of vB3, at the bottom of the thread view, there was a link to the forum, above the Previous/Next links. If you want to do this, follow these steps:

Open the template called SHOWTHREAD (it's in the Show Thread group, funnily enough), and find the following code (About a quarter down):

<div class="smallfont" align="center"> 
    <strong>&laquo;</strong> 
        <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid&amp;goto=nextoldest">$vbphrase[prev_thread]</a> 
        | 
        <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid&amp;goto=nextnewest">$vbphrase[next_thread]</a> 
    <strong>&raquo;</strong> 
</div> 

And replace it with:

<div align="center" class="smallfont"> 
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$threadinfo[forumid]">$foruminfo[title]</a><br /> 
    <strong>&laquo;</strong> 
        <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid&amp;goto=nextoldest">$vbphrase[prev_thread]</a> 
        | 
        <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid&amp;goto=nextnewest">$vbphrase[next_thread]</a> 
    <strong>&raquo;</strong> 
</div>

I just tried making the change but it doesn't seem to work.

[MattM]

I just looked at the source of this page and the code isn't there. Did you edit the SHOWTHREAD template and insert the exact code?

[Chris]

Yes. I guess I'll try again.

[MattM]

Did you have any more problems with this?

[Chris]

I actually haven't tried again yet.

I thought it was an on/off toggle in the admincp on vB3. (long time since I messed with that, though)
