Related Forum Topics Mod

« on: April 29, 2005, 11:46:25 PM »

Was using the other bridge, but I am using your bridge now. I am still using the related topics mod made by the other bridge and it works fine except for one item. It shows related posts not related topics. For EX: If I have a post with 3 replies, 4 items are shown (for all posts) and not 1 (for just the topic). It should be just the topics since that is the name of the mod.

Live example:

http://www.certifiedsecuritypro.com/index.php/content/view/158/170/

If you notice on the right menu in the Relted Forum Topics area, there are replies to the topics as well. I want just the topics. If they want to see the replies, have them go to the full topic.

Any thoughts on creating such a mod?

Thanks in advance.

Now that I have moved to Joomla and your most recent version of Joomla-SMF (and the login forever is working well -thanks), I thought I would bring up this topic again.

The old mod created by the person who made the other bridge, still works but with the above stated problem.

Here's a new example working with Joomla 1.0.3:
Anatomy of a Hack

Any interest recently in creating such a mod?

Thanks.

Just use this one here.

It displays only the "updated" thread and the number of replies to it. That's the one im using here.

There was really no point for Recent Posts as it will display multiple the same post title.

You're thinking of 'Recent' topics not 'Related' topics. The Related Topics Mod looks at the meta data of a Joomla Content Item, compares it to the title of an SMF post and creates a list of similar topics.

If you go to the link in my second post, you will see that I have both mods, 'Recent' and 'Related' to get an idea of what I mean.

I'm curious if you have a 'Related' mod on your radar screen?

Thanks.

I don't have that... but if there's something existing... it should be easy to make it work with this bridge. Otherwise, I can probably work on this for future releases.
