Discussion count

[Boone]

How can I get the discussion count (by Waindigo) to render in the postbit/message user info?

It probably can't be applied to the certain template, I'll install it here shortly and see a fix for you.

 

[Boone]

Curious. Anything to report Russ?

 

[Afterward]

Appearance -> Styles -> Style Properties: Message Elements and tick this

 

[Boone]

I have that ticked. And, it shows in the Visitor sidebar panel but doesn't show in the message user info (postbit).

 

[Afterward]

I know the reason, navigate here
Appearance -> Template Modifications -> Discussion Count by Waindigo -> message_user_info
tell me what do you see in the find field.

#(<xen:if is="{xenroperty messageShowTotalLikes})#Us

Enable debug mode so you can edit it and replace that with this:

<xen:if is="@messageShowTotalLikes AND {$user.user_id}">
                    <dl class="pairsJustified xbLikes">
                        <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-thumbs-up Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase likes_received}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase likes_received}:</xen:if></dt>
                        <dd>{xen:number $user.like_count}</dd>
                    </dl>
                </xen:if>

Save and check.

 

[Boone]

Got this??

 

[Afterward]

tick simple replacement instead of regular. sorry forgot to mention that.

 

[Boone]

Almost buddy. It look like this....

 

[Afterward]

In the replace field replace all with this:

$0
<xen:if is="@waindigo_messageShowDiscussionCount AND {$user.user_id}">
<dl class="pairsJustified">
    <dt><i class="fa fa-comment Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i></dt>
    <dd><a href="{xen:link search/member, '', 'user_id={$user.user_id}', 'content=thread'}" class="concealed" rel="nofollow">{xen:number $user.discussion_count}</a></dd>
</dl>
</xen:if>

 

[Afterward]

Or if you want the fontawesome style to be disabled and back to normal when you switch that style propertie off then it should be like this

$0
<xen:if is="@waindigo_messageShowDiscussionCount AND {$user.user_id}">
<dl class="pairsJustified">
    <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-comment Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}</xen:if></dt>
    <dd><a href="{xen:link search/member, '', 'user_id={$user.user_id}', 'content=thread'}" class="concealed" rel="nofollow">{xen:number $user.discussion_count}</a></dd>
</dl>
</xen:if>

 

[Boone]

Post #13 means if I ever wanted to NOT have font awesome in message user info?

 

[Afterward]

Correct, that will switch it back to default styling in case you disabled the fontawesome option.

 

[Boone]

Nope.

Is the $0 correct. Just a guess?

 

[Afterward]

Then go with post 12 method.
0$ =

<xen:if is="@messageShowTotalLikes AND {$user.user_id}">
                    <dl class="pairsJustified xbLikes">
                        <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-thumbs-up Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase likes_received}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase likes_received}:</xen:if></dt>
                        <dd>{xen:number $user.like_count}</dd>
                    </dl>
                </xen:if>

So instead we put this in replace

<xen:if is="@messageShowTotalLikes AND {$user.user_id}">
                    <dl class="pairsJustified xbLikes">
                        <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-thumbs-up Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase likes_received}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase likes_received}:</xen:if></dt>
                        <dd>{xen:number $user.like_count}</dd>
                    </dl>
                </xen:if>
<xen:if is="@waindigo_messageShowDiscussionCount AND {$user.user_id}">
<dl class="pairsJustified">
    <dt><i class="fa fa-comment Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i></dt>
    <dd><a href="{xen:link search/member, '', 'user_id={$user.user_id}', 'content=thread'}" class="concealed" rel="nofollow">{xen:number $user.discussion_count}</a></dd>
</dl>
</xen:if>

We only do this:

$0
<xen:if is="@waindigo_messageShowDiscussionCount AND {$user.user_id}">
<dl class="pairsJustified">
    <dt><i class="fa fa-comment Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i></dt>
    <dd><a href="{xen:link search/member, '', 'user_id={$user.user_id}', 'content=thread'}" class="concealed" rel="nofollow">{xen:number $user.discussion_count}</a></dd>
</dl>
</xen:if>

Sorry about my english its not that good ^^

 

[Boone]

Not showing at all.

 

[Afterward]

Hm this happened to me before somehow it didint wanna show, look what i did is this i disabled the template modification by unticking it

Then i went to message_user_info template and edited it this way
find:

<xen:if is="@messageShowTotalLikes AND {$user.user_id}">
                    <dl class="pairsJustified xbLikes">
                        <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-thumbs-up Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase likes_received}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase likes_received}:</xen:if></dt>
                        <dd>{xen:number $user.like_count}</dd>
                    </dl>
                </xen:if>

Just after it added:

<xen:if is="@waindigo_messageShowDiscussionCount AND {$user.user_id}">
<dl class="pairsJustified">
    <dt><xen:if is="@xb_fa_messageUserInfo"><i class="fa fa-comment Tooltip" title="{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}" data-offsetX="-6" data-offsetY="0"></i><xen:else />{xen:phrase waindigo_discussions_discussioncount}</xen:if></dt>
    <dd><a href="{xen:link search/member, '', 'user_id={$user.user_id}', 'content=thread'}" class="concealed" rel="nofollow">{xen:number $user.discussion_count}</a></dd>
</dl>
</xen:if>

I know this might not be the best practice but it solved it for me

 

[Boone]

Quick, curiousity question before I proceed. I've noticed the "likes" in the code.

What does the likes have to do with discussion count. Sorry if stupid question.
