removing [en] - language-tags

[jofel]

First of all, let me start to thank you for this terriffic product. Very nice job you've done.

Then, my question(s). I have been doing some tweaking in the css and language file, deleting some things in the template files to integrate it in my site more.

Question 1: is it possible to remove the [en]-tags behind every question? I'll probably use one language anyway and don't want to bother my users with it; it looks nicer without htem too. I have done some searching in files but could not find it.

Question 2: in the main menu, you have the following structure:

Home
Show all categories
Category 1
Category 2
Category x
Sitemap

Is it possible to get some sort of placeholder between the items, so the categories might stick out more:

Home
Show all categories
-----------
Category 1
Category 2
Category 3
----------
Sitemap

Or any other way to get a better visualization of the real categories.

any help appreciated

thnx in advanced

Hi,

First of all, let me start to thank you for this terriffic product. Very nice job you've done.

thanks for using it!

Question 1: is it possible to remove the [en]-tags behind every question? I'll probably use one language anyway and don't want to bother my users with it; it looks nicer without htem too. I have done some searching in files but could not find it.

sure, look for the function printThemes() in the file inc/functions.php and remove in the following code there:

Code: Select all

[".$row->lang."]

Question 2: in the main menu, you have the following structure:

Home
Show all categories
Category 1
Category 2
Category x
Sitemap

Home
Show all categories
-----------
Category 1
Category 2
Category 3
----------
Sitemap

Or any other way to get a better visualization of the real categories.

Just add in the index.tpl file the following where you'll find the category menu:

Code: Select all

<!-- start categories -->
                <div class="content">
                    <div id="categories">
                    <ul>
                        <li class="home">{backToHome}</li>
                        <li>{allCategories}</li>
                    </ul>
                    <ul>
                        {showCategories}
                    </ul>
                    <ul>
                        <li>{showSitemap}</li>
                    </ul>
                    </div>
                </div>
                <!-- end categories -->

This is just a example!

Thanks a lot, I read your reply and gonna try it as soon as possible (some priorities prohibit me to try immediately lol).

I'll post my results later!

[jofel]

It all works nice, just added two more <ul>'s and added a font-weight:bold; at the style.css at #categories ul ul ul a.

that's pretty much I wanted to accomplish

Additional questions.

Where do I have to look if I want to remove the amount of views in the list of the questions?

Sorry for this load of questions I appreciate it much.

[Thorsten]

Hi,

Where do I have to look if I want to remove the amount of views in the list of the questions?

which list do you mean?

Just when you have clicked on a category in the menu

but I think I saw a solution here:
viewtopic.php?t=1360&highlight=removing+views

I assume there is no way of seeing in the backend how many views an item got and at the same time hidden on the frontend?

Because it would be interesting to see how many views an item got, just don't want to bother the people on the frontend with it.

If not, I'm considering a dirty trick to make the font-color of the views white, so people don't see it at first site, but you'll be still able to see it when selecting it.

Any other ideas/suggestions?

[Thorsten]

Hi,

you cannot see the views in the admin section, yet...

bye
Thorsten

[jofel]

Okay, thanks anyway

Will try the dirty trick then lol

Keep up the good work!

[jofel]

I feel like a newbie, but I might need some help... how do I get the font color of the views white when having a list of questions from a category?

[Thorsten]

Hi,

you have to add a

Code: Select all

<span style="color: white;">...</span>

in the function printThemes() above...

[jofel]

Lol I tried that before but didn't work;

first got an error but realized had to escape the " with backslashes.

Still the text was black, later I saw another line after that... removed the divs and added the spans and now it's perfect.

Thanks for your help Thorsten

Hi,
