I have just tried to add the "delete message" functionality by editing:
/phorum/mods/recent_messages/templates//render_message_row.tpl

However, the template variables DELETE_THREAD / DELETE_MESSAGE do not appear to be present?

I have tried both:
MESSAGES->URL->DELETE_THREAD
and
MESSAGE->URL->DELETE_THREAD

EDIT: Also,
{IF MODERATOR true}
...does not seem to be working in render_message_row.tpl
t's as if there needs to be some call in recent_messages.php to set up these variables?
I see phorum_build_common_urls(); is in there, is there a similar function like phorum_build_moderator_urls(); ?

Any advice on how I can access these or similar template variables would be appreciated.

Thanks,

May I make a request for a future version of this mod - could you please add in moderator delete thread/message links in the same way as in the main forum list?

The reason is that sometimes spam arrives spread out across 10+ forums all within a few minutes of each other.
Some of my moderators do not look at the less used forums so spam gets missed.
The Recent Messages view would show these spam threads and provide a convenient page to delete them from.

Many thanks,

the recent messages module is a fully fledged solution for a separate page with new posts, grouping by different features and other stuff. its far too heavyweight for a simple newest post list.
Maybe that module [www.phorum.org] is what you want - but I didn't test it, just found it in the search.

Do you mean something like this that I did with version 3 something?

You could hack it which is what I did but it would be better if the recent messages module could manage it.

Your main script is using phorum_api_newflags_format_messages($messages, $mode);

Under this function I have found:
// Do not handle newflags for moved message notifications.
if ($message['move']) continue;

Shouldn't it be "moved" instead of "move"?

Also, this module only works for me if I take out [code="php"]//$PHORUM['forum_id'] = 0;[/code] at the beginning.

I posted version 2.1.1 of the module, which fixes an issue with newflags not being shown for the "Updated topics" view. Thanks to noe for pointing out the issue.

You can use it in 5.2 already!

5.3 is only needed to be able to load the message list from a *different* website. On the same Phorum site, things should work well in 5.2 too. These forums run on 5.2 too and the recent messages page is working just fine.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Mapex — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 15:02:51 -0500

spectacular!.
Will be ready for when the version 5.3?
order to have this feature in my forum.

I uploaded version 2.1.0 of the Recent Messages module. This version adds some ajax capabilities to the module. On this site's "Recent Messages" page, you can already see one of the new possibilities in action (the "Older messages" link at the bottom of the list will load the older messages via ajax).

For some extended info on the ajax handling, see the README file.

I setup an example page showing the way in which the new ajax feature can be used to create a list of recent messages / threads. View the source of that page if you want to see what I did there.

Note: accessing the recent messages from another website via ajax is not possible in 5.2, because of browser security restrictions. However, in 5.3 (the development tree at the time of writing) we switched to the JSONP request method, which will make cross domain requests possible.

That sounds like the kind of thing that the new version of the module will be able to handle. I'm not 100% sure if it will work in 5.2 too though. I am currently developing on Phorum 5.3. I will test the code on 5.2 and if it works, I will release the module.

Hi Maurice is a pleasure.
My idea is to show the last 10 post on the index after the logo, without the need to go to another page, simply by entering the site and display the last 10 post.
Greetings.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Maurice Makaay — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 13:43:26 -0500

There is no feature for that in the module.

At this moment, I am working on some new code for the recent messages module, which allows loading recent messages through an Ajax call. That would make it possible to do something like this. It does not add the controls though, so it is not means for having the full interface of the recent messages module on another page. Just a list of messages / threads.

I am wondering what kind of index page you have in mind here. Both recent messages and a list of forums on the index page? That might push down the forums list a lot. Is that the idea?

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Mapex — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 13:30:41 -0500

hello
how I can do to show me the information on
"addon.php? 0, module = recent_messages. "
on the main page (index), after the "header"?.

Thanks Maurice for your answer. As my english is bad, I am some difficulty to understand.
I discover a red file but only when I am logged but I don't log in to read messages ont the Forum.

I tried to clic on the read file but I go on a message bu not the last ?

I have read your readme file but as I am not an expert in software it is difficult for me to see what I have to and in which files ?

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Maurice Makaay — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 16:14:07 -0500

If you click the red flag, you will jump to the newest message.

If you want the subject to work likewise, you will have to create a custom template for the recent messages module, in which you take care of that. I'm currently at a PC without Phorum code on it, so I can't cook up example code. But maybe the red flag link already helps you out.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Is anybody have a solution for my displaying ?

Re: Module: Recent Messages

victoria — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 05:41:53 -0600

With the option 'Recent Messages', when I click on the line, I get the last message of the topic

I prefer the choice 'Updated topics', but when I click on line I go on the first message of the topic and I would like to show the laste message of the topic. How is it possible to do (I am not an expert in software)

Many thanks for your help

Maurice Makaay — Sun, 16 Jan 2011 07:46:13 -0600

The original code is correct. Maybe some other module or some hack that you did break this code. Disable other modules to see if there's one that causes a conflict. If you find one, then report the issue in the correct thread.

You started a sentence about the Post Preview module, but maybe you stopped writing it, realizing that this thread is not about that module.

Odd but it worked when I replaced
[code="php"]
function phorum_mod_recent_messages_start_output()
{
global $PHORUM;

$backup_id = $PHORUM['forum_id'];
$PHORUM['forum_id'] = 0;
$PHORUM['DATA']['URL']['RECENT_MESSAGES'] =
phorum_get_url(PHORUM_ADDON_URL, 'module=recent_messages');
$PHORUM['forum_id'] = $backup_id;
}

with:

function phorum_mod_recent_messages_start_output()
{
global $PHORUM;

$PHORUM['DATA']['URL']['RECENT_MESSAGES'] =
phorum_get_url(PHORUM_ADDON_URL, 'module=recent_messages');
}
[/code]

Maurice Makaay — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 10:54:54 -0600

The only thing that should be run for the URL to work is the hook function phorum_mod_recent_messages_start_output(), which sets up that variable. Therefore, if you want to debug, you should check if that function is being called or not.

The URL works perfectly for me in an unhacked module. If things don't work in a hacked up version, then expect no guarantees or help from my side.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

korsakov — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 09:44:55 -0600

I transferred the changes and I checked all of them that they would not create problems. Btw, the message data are present before page.tpl is called.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Thomas Seifert — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 09:13:43 -0600

so you hacked the code and then the problem appeared?

Re: Module: Recent Messages

korsakov — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 09:07:13 -0600

Thank you and yes, page.tpl is correctly spelled. I had some tweaks in recent_messages.php. Unfortunately, I had to switch back to the old recent_messages release. I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't get me to a new page.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Maurice Makaay — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 04:49:24 -0600

The {URL->RECENT_MESSAGES} seems correct. That should work. I have it like that too.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Thomas Seifert — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 03:27:49 -0600

I hope its "page.tpl", all lowercase?

Re: Module: Recent Messages

korsakov — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 09:02:58 -0600

href="{URL->RECENT_MESSAGES}" is called within header.tpl.

All the messages can be read out before phorum_output("recent_messages::page"); is called in recent_messages.php. Page.tpl exists.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

Maurice Makaay — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 05:08:59 -0600

It would help if you would provide useful information, like where you added the link and even more important, exactly what that link code looks like.

Re: Module: Recent Messages

korsakov — Thu, 13 Jan 2011 23:16:35 -0600

When I select the Recent-Messages link I remain on the same page. I tried to debug the situation but couldn't find the problem.
