[vB3] Separate between sticky threads and normal threads

[Chen]

This is pretty simple, open your forumdisplaybit template and add the following at the very top:

<if condition="!$addedRow and $stickyids and $thread['sticky'] == 0 and $addedRow = true">
<tr valign="top">
 <td class="thead" colspan="10"><img src="$stylevar[imagesfolder]/clear.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td>
</tr>
</if>

This will create a separating row between sticky threads and normal threads, so they are more noticeable. View screenshot for example.

Nice, Chen. Looks great!

Very nice Chen, just what the doctor ordered for seperating sticky threads..

[Joe Page]

Cool, seperating threads Invision Board style

[Chen]

I didn't know that IPB also does it. But I've been doing this on all of my boards since forever, except that now with vB3 it can be done only with templates so I figured I should post it.

Chen can you make one for announcements? I think i know how to do it (just by modifying the one above) but id rather you do it to make sure

Thanks.

[phill2003]

[nuno]

Hell, with this tmod, I don't even need to have a label for sticky threads. Makes it look a lot cleaner! Thanks Chen

[TonyG]

Thats a neat idea, fury!

*Removes label*

[Stadler]

The same change should be applied to forumdisplaybit_deleted or the bar would be under the deletion notices, if the very first threads have been deleted
