please how do i make my homepage show only resolved topics only. users can as well click on the the other buttons like newest and unsolved and popular. but when my homepageis reloaded i want it to show the resolved topics as the default.
What about this please
I've just asked our developers and currently, I'm waiting for the response from them. I'll update the topic asap.
Below is provided a solution for Threaded layout:
1.Open the /wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-themes/classic/layouts/4/forum.php file
2. Find the following code:
<?php if( WPF()->forum->options['layout_threaded_filter_buttons'] ): ?>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-newest wpf-active" data-filter="newest" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Newest', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-clock"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-hottest" data-filter="hottest" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Popular', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fab fa-hotjar"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-solved" data-filter="solved" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Resolved', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-check-circle"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-unsolved" data-filter="unsolved" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Unsolved', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-times-circle"></i></a>
<?php endif; ?>
3. replace with this one:
<?php if( WPF()->forum->options['layout_threaded_filter_buttons'] ): ?>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-solved wpf-active" data-filter="solved" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Resolved', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-check-circle"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-newest " data-filter="newest" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Newest', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-clock"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-hottest" data-filter="hottest" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Popular', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top><i class="fab fa-hotjar"></i></a>
<a class="wpf-threads-filter wpf-unsolved" data-filter="unsolved" wpf-tooltip="<?php echo esc_attr(wpforo_phrase( 'Unsolved', false )) ?>" wpf-tooltip-position="top"><i class="fas fa-times-circle"></i></a>
<?php endif; ?>
Please don't forget to use the update-safe way for the customization. Instruction is here: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/forum-themes/theme-customization/
There are many filed in the folder you mentioned above please specify.
I tested the above code on local host but It didn't work. I saw the code on layout/4/forums
The resolved icon is highlighted but the topics it shows is the recent topics. see screenshots below.
And the trending topics icon is gone.
That's good. Now you should change the default thread loading logic.
1. Edit the copied layouts/4/forum.php file in your active theme folder and find this line:
$args = array( 'row_count' => WPF()->forum->options['layout_threaded_intro_topics_count'], 'forumids' => $child_forums, 'orderby' => 'type, modified', 'order' => 'DESC' );
2. Change it to this and save:
$args = array( 'row_count' => WPF()->forum->options['layout_threaded_intro_topics_count'], 'forumids' => $child_forums, 'orderby' => 'type, modified', 'solved' => 1, 'order' => 'DESC' );
Thanks you very much @sofy and @Robert.
Actually I don't want all the topics created to show on the homepage. So after adding the above code I changed the name on phrases from 'solved' to 'move to homepage'. Now only the topic I want will be shown on the homepage.
Thank once again to the Wpforo team.
