Hi Guys,

Does anyone know how to MOD the code so that the Subscription email notification gives a link to the LAST page of the thread?

Right now, the link goes to the first page.

Be gentle :)

See my second last reply in this topic. You'll also need to add whichpage=-1 to the querystring when linking members to topic.asp from your subscription e-mails. This will bring subscribers to the last reply on the last page of a topic.

Sorry Shaggy,

I have added the code to the topic.asp and it has not appeared to give me any issue.

How do I modify the subscription email part?

Find the following on line 188 of inc_subscription.asp and add the code in green:
strMessage = strMessage & "You can view the posting at " & strForumURL & "topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & TopicId & "?whichpage=-1" & vbNewline

Shaggy,

Put that live and some users are reporting issues:

First is that subscriptions have stopped working (however, manual email message using the forums still work).

The second is that *some* readers are giving the following error on the rss.asp file:

ADODB.Recordset error '800a0bb9'

Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.

/forum/topic.asp, line 411

Line 411 is:

rsReplies.absolutepage = mypage '**

For some reason there's a ? above where there should be a &; corrected below.
strMessage = strMessage & "You can view the posting at " & strForumURL & "topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & TopicId & "&whichpage=-1" & vbNewline
What's rss.asp and why's it pulling an error from topic.asp? The line you reference is unrelated to the changes I provided you with.

Can you post a link to a *.txt copy of your topic.asp file? Do you have any topics that are more than 1 page long?

OK, where I am seeing the problem is as follows....

On topics that have only 1 page, this error happens. On topics that have three pages, the link takes me to the second page only. Make sense? It is almost like it should add a 1 to the number all the time?

http://web2.minasi.com/forum/topic.txt
http://web2.minasi.com/forum/inc_subscription.txt

Sorry for the editing of this topic... if you want a long post to test this on try:
http://web2.minasi.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=16211

As you can see the "-1" takes you to page 15 and not 16.

Nick

If this is happening consistently across all topics then there's a quick fix that I can give you, but you'll need to test a few topics with differing numbers of replies (including 0) before applying the fix as, if it's not a consistent problem, it'll just break something else. Would love to know why it's happening like this for you, but I can only assume it's clashing with a mod you have installed.
