Re: [hoefti] Pinned Topics for GForum

Here is how my "StickyTopics" plugin works:

The StickyTopics plugin will create a new Sticky table, and will hook into post_normalize forum view. Top and Detop topic will apear as options in the moderator links section of a post. Topped topics appear with "Important" next to the subject. If the Topped thread is also locked, "Announcement" will be next to the subject.

One shortcoming with StickyTopicsis: if the post you want to "Top" is like on page 3, it will be top on page 3, not page 1. This seems to be because of the topics per page limit setting. I will have to track this down, see if there is a way. I am still learning this stuff. Not sure when I can fix it.

If you have the plugin "SearchHighlighter" installed and want to use
"StickyTopics", you need to have the "SearchHighlighter" plugin version 1.3


Let me know if you like it, use at your own risk.

I just fixed a small bug and uploaded version 1.2

If you installed 1.0, or 1.1, you might want to uninstall and then install 1.2

Update: 10/13/03 I have removed the plugin and upgraded to gforum 1.2.0 which now supports Sticky topics. I recommend others do the same because the code is more efficient.
