I know this was something that was fixed before but I did a search here and over at infopop and it returned everything I didnt need.

When i see ther is a new post in a forum and I click on it ti read, it takes me to the top not to the new post. can someone send me to the fix. I think I removed the fix with a mod I installed but im not sure.

thanks

Version?

The earlier beta versions of 6.5 did this, but in 6.5 final release, it works the correct way.

Various 6.4 versions had some missing anchor tags that prevented the jump.

i think I overwrote the fix for it in a mod. but i cant find the post that shows the fix :-\

its on a 6.4.2 board

Here's my old fix for 6.3, I think the one for 6.4 is slightly different iirc, but this should steer you in the right direction.

Twisty, your teasing me :-P

Whaddya mean? The anchor isn't correctly structured in 6.4 from what I remember. I think it's missing the # sign or something like that.

Post the section of code containing the anchor from showflat.tmpl and I can probably tell you exactly what's wrong with it.

But there wasnt anything there
no attachment or anything....

My bad, here's the link...

Ok, now for 6.4.2 it looks like the 'Post' section of the anchor was dropped, so you would probably need this...

<a name="#{$postrow[$i]['Number']}"></a>

...instead of this:

<a name="#Post{$postrow[$i]['Number']}"></a>

this is what I have in there now... (6.4.2 board)



<font class="small">
<a name="#{$postrow[$i]['Number']}">#{$postrow[$i]['Number']} - {$postrow[$i]['time']} <i>{$postrow[$i]['IP']}</i> {$postrow[$i]['filelink']}
</font>
</td>
<td align="right" width="30%">

You mean before changing anything, and the problem still exists?

Or do you mean that's the code after you changed it and the problem is now solved?

Your statement could be interpreted 2 different ways

sorry. I was busy doing 8 things at the same time I was posting that..

That is what is there before any changes are made in showflat.tmpl. I have not changed anything.

Ok that section looks correct, that's what you need to have in there, but apparently some other changes need to be made elsewhere for it to work (especially if you have other mods installed? The Google spidering one?!?).

At a minimum, you'll need to post postlist.tmpl here for me to help you any further.

Also, could you post a URL to the forums so that I can see what kind of URL structure you're using?

There are no mods instaled on the board. I removed the cookie prefix and logged everyone out. Then I added / before the name in the cookie section and it seems to have worked.

Ok, well cool that you finally got it working now
