[Forum] Conditional Question

[Sal Collaziano]

How might I ad code to a thread that only appears after or if a certain amount of replies have been made? For example, I have code that displays at the bottom of a thread but I don't want it to display unless there are 4 or more posts in that thread...

The conditions in the thread below should still work:

Thank you. This looks like what I want:

<if condition="$post[postcount] == 1 AND $GLOBALS[threadinfo][replycount] >= 2">

...but just above the quick reply box and only if there are X amount of posts/replies on the page.. Is that possible?

You would put that code at the bottom of your postbit template and change postcount == 1 to postcount ==4. Then change replycount >= 2 to either >= 4 or == 4 depending on whether you want it to show for less.

If you do the template edit in the SHOWTHREAD template just use:
<if condition="$threadinfo[replycount] >= 2">

I'm using this in showthread. If there are under 6 replies in a thread, this works:
<vb:if condition="$threadinfo[replycount] >= 6">

What I'd REALLY love is that for the code to display ONLY if there are 6 replies/posts on a page. So if there's a topic with 5 pages, I'd like to display the code ONLY if there are 6 or most posts on it...

Is there any way to do that with conditionals?

Thank you for your help thusfar!

Change the >= to ==

I gave that a shot but then the code didn't show up at all, under any circumstances...

If you want it to show up on six posts in a thread, you need to check for replycount == 5. This is six posts. The original and 5 replies makes six. If you want it show for 7 posts, then replycount == 6 will work.

Hi Wayne,

Thank you. Is is possible for this to work on all 5 pages of a discussion thread? In other words, I'd like the code to display only if there are 6 posts on a page. If there are 3 pages, I'd like to code to display if there are 6 posts. I'm probably not explaining what I want properly... But let me know if you understand what I'm saying.

Thank you...

Have to think about this and take a look at the code to see where postcount is available.

Thank you! I appreciate your time!
