This is a new version of this mod.
Warning! : this mod is written in half an hour, and has NOT been tested!
Permalink.asp is made from scratch by heart, and not executed at all...(I don't have FTP access to my site to test it).
So, it may work right away if I paid attention, but it may just as well fail....
What this mod will do is this:
- it will add a small box with a number in it to the header of each reply. This number is the position of this reply in that topic.
- it will add a small box with a link showing a permalink (¤) to the header of each post (topic and replies).
The permalink will take you to the topic, or to the reply regardless of the pagenumber it's on (for replies) and regardless if it's archived or not (for topics and replies).
For people who've implemented the split topic mod, moved replies will also be found using the permalink (except for the startpost, which is in fact a deleted reply that's inserted as a topic)
How to implement it ?
When coming from the previous version of this mod:
with this:
Then, replace this:
by this:
Then, finally, download this file, and save it as permalink.asp (remove the .txt extension):
 Text File: read permalink.asp.txt 7638 bytes
Again a warning: it has NEVER been tested! At oxle I use a custom 404 to handle the permalinks, so I migrated the code I used there to this code, without the ability to test it.

This is getting stranger by the minute...those last two links take me to default.asp, and not to a reply or even to a specific topic.
Which version of permalink.asp are you using?< |

There is an issue where if the reply is is not on the first page of the topic then it will not go to the reply, but just to the topic. As an example using the same topic that is spread over 2 pages:
Main Topic
Reply on Page 1
Reply on Page 2 - puts you at the top of the main topic

They work properly for me, also.< |

That's odd. Both links take me to the reply when I clicked on them.< |

Sorry, but http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/permalink.asp?r5433 takes me to default.asp as well, while it should take me to http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/topic.asp?topic_id=914#5433

Only the topic permalink takes me to default.asp. The replies seem to work.< |

all your permalinks take you to default.asp....something wrong in permalink.asp ?< |

You're right. The /asp error is in MarcelG's code at the top of this topic. I changed the /asp to .asp but now instead of getting the 404 error, the permalink takes me to default.asp.< |

The 404 ; your startpost permalink goes to http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/permalink/asp?t914 instead of http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/permalink.asp?t914
(So, a / instead of a .)
Replace this:permalink/asp?t with this:permalink.asp?t I've updated the startpost.< |

I'm not getting any errors, but either I don't understand what it is supposed to do or it doesn't work.
For example:
I had a reply that had this URL -
http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/topic.asp?topic_id=914#5443
In the status bar in the lower left corner of IE when hovering over the permalink it displayed this url -
http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/permalink.asp?r5443
I then split that reply to its own topic and it became -
http://www.mangionemagic.com/forumbeta/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=917
Now the original permalink can not find that reply. Does that make sense?
Also, clicking on the topic permalink still goes to a 404 error page.< |

The newer code worked better.
However, when I split the topic (with the split topic mod) and moved one of the replies to its own topic, it's permalink no longer works and I get this error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required: ''
/forumbeta/permalink.asp, line 60
Also clicking on its new permalink topic link I get a 404 page not found error.< |
