Not sure if this is the correct forum?
Can anyone help me accomplish the changes as noted below
in the image file? I have seen this layout on vbulletin
and I'm sure it's possible within Snitz, just dont know
how complicated it will be?
Would actually love to reformat the entire post window to
be just like this with images moved from current location
in snitz to where displayed in image below, but I'll let the pro's
here tell if and how all this could be done.
thanks again....

Post number is the trickiest, but it could be possible. The rest is just formatting - simply move the code from where it is to where you want it to be. Remember in topic.asp there is always 2 places to change :
1. The place where the "topic creation" post is displayed
2. The place where all the replies are displayed. |

I got the tables done ok now, anyone care to make a mod
for post # count in a thread?
Not sure how difficult it would be but I bet a few people
would like to use a mod like that if someone made one. I
guess for high traffic forums it become useful so you could
say at the beginning of your post: in reply to post # 7 etc.
thanks for the reply though laser, I just needed to get brave
and dive into adding tables on a "live" forum  |

no probs ... with changes like this, a good tip is to create a topic1.asp you can then test out all the changes before committing them to topic.asp this does NOT work in all cases, but is a neat trick when you can use it. |

I think there was a MOD that tracked which post it was in the thread. Check at SnitzBitz and see if there's one there.
Shouldn't be any harder than displaying the count as it loops through the array. |

thanks for the replies, I did try a test of a different topic.asp
and it didnt seem to work for me 
And I will take a look at snitzbitz but I think I have combed
that site for mods and dont remember seeing this one. And as
far as displaying a loop etc., thats way over my head
Anyone possibly know where I could find this mod other than
snitzbitz if it does exist? |

What about using the iForum variable and adding 2 to it (for display purposes only), so try this :
Response.Write "Post #" & iForum + 2
Do NOT do this code
iForum = iForum + 2
Response.Write "Post #" & iForum
or you will stuff it up completely.
For the first post, I'd probably just hard-code the 1 :
Response.Write "Post #1"

ARGH!!! .. sorry, I meant to do the paging, but I forgot , a bit trickier but try this ....
Response.Write "Post #" & (iForum + 2) + mypage-1 * strPageSize
CHECK THIS !!! ... the maths might be slightly out on Page numbers greater than 1

where to stick that in post.asp or any other file?

Not in post.asp, you need to add this in topic.asp - weren't you changing topic.asp layout before ?
Anyway, search for this line in topic.asp :
Response.Write formatStr(Reply_Content)
that will give you the approximate area for replies, and
Response.Write formatStr(Topic_Message)
for the initial post.
In the 5-10 line above that you will have to do some editting of the formatting code and including my code (above). |

I have the layout done ok and the Post #1 done ok,
but I cannot for the life of me get this reply part to work
although I also have the correct location for it done as well.
I have trouble with this Response.Write "Post #" & (iForum + 2) + mypage-1 * strPageSize
it posts exactly that above instead of Post #xxxx
any ideas? |

| You are writing ASP code out of ASP tags. Please post the 5-10 lines either side of the code you're adding, and indicate what changes you have made to it. ... just a formatting error I guess. |

I tried to add you to ICQ but I got an error on that
too (just not my day) LOL
here's how mine looks:
if Request.QueryString("SearchTerms") <> "" then
Response.Write SearchHiLite(formatStr(Reply_Content))
else
Response.Write " <div align=""right""><table cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""3"" border=""0""><tr><td align=""center""><font face=""Verdana, Tahoma, Arial"" size=""1"">Post # & (iForum + 2) + mypage-1 * strPageSize</font><br /><br /></td></tr></table></div>"
Response.Write formatStr(Reply_Content)
end if
Response.Write "</span id=""msg""></font></td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine
if CanShowSignature = 1 and Reply_Sig = 1 and Reply_MemberSig <> "" then |
