Thread Title Variable

I am trying to have a bit of text displayed when you are posting a reply to a thread. I got everything working, but need the appropriate variable to show the title of the thread being replied to.

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'newreply'">
<div>You are posting a reply to <strong>[I][B]thread-title[/B][/I]</strong>.</div>
</if>

I tried $thread[threadtitle] to no avail.

 

I've had a few attempts too, I tried this:

$thread[prefix_plain_html] $thread[title]

But that didn't work either.

 

Hopefully Wayne will be to the rescue soon. :p

 

Not sure why you have a conditional as newreply is a distinct template where you can put this at.

Anyway, the thread array is called $threadinfo and the index you want to use is 'title' as that is the field name in the database. So your variable would be:

$threadinfo[title]

If you used this format {$threadinfo['title']} then it should work in vB4 as well.

 

Thanks for the info Wayne. I'm sure we were both driving ourselves crazy trying to figure it out, Lol

I've added this so that the Prefix will display too:

Code:

{$threadinfo['prefix_plain_html']} {$threadinfo['title']}

I wondered why this wasn't working, Lol thread'indo'

The reason for this is because the conditional is placed within the navbar template. I guess Nick thought it would be easier as there is one for newreply, newthread and the forum description to have them all in the same place.

Thanks very much Wayne

 

Thank you very much, Wayne. I appreciate it.

And thank you LTC for getting it up while I was away.

Yep, that is correct.
