Hello,

i have tried to get this to work :

I want to get the images posted on the forum to get a dynamic tag. I have tried to get the thread title in the tag but i failed.

In the file functions_bbcodeparse.php you will find on line 1047

 return '<img src="' .  $link . '" border="0" alt="" />';

but i do not understand how i get the thread title in alt tag.....

Can someone help me out... I know google likes the alt tag !


thx

Hi

A very good idea - replace the existing function in functions_bbcodeparse.php with the following - works a dream, but it does mean that all images in that thread get the same alt tag:

I thought of the option of using the post title if that existed. But the postinfo data is not available in the bbcode file, so I would have to populate the postinfo variable. Would add quite a bit of overhead. So probably better to keep with just the threadtitle.

[html]function handle_bbcode_img_match($link)
{
//added by t2dman 1 line
global $threadinfo;
$link = strip_smilies(str_replace('\\"', '"', $link));

// remove double spaces -- fixes issues with wordwrap
$link = str_replace(' ', '', $link);
//t2dman added threadinfo title
return '<img src="' . $link . '" border="0" alt="' . $threadinfo['title'].'" />';
}
[/html]

Upon adding the code i received a parse error and noticed that you had added $threadinfo['title"] instead of $threadinfo['title'].

I can't wait till I upgrade to v3.5!!! - the " ' bug in 3.06 is a real pain!!! - I have tried testing it on 3.5 and have not seen an issue yet.

Sometimes it shows properly, other times not!

Do we have a set release date yet for the release?

[T2DMan]

No release date that I have seen - they are waiting for everyone to update their hacks and request any extra pinholes into the code - as well as giving the wider vb community some time to find any bugs.

Quite a number of people have put the beta's onto their live boards. My guess, there wont be many substantial changes, and it there are, most people's hacks will not be on the main php source code, so upgrades will be easy.

I really dont agree with actually upgrading a live board when you are using an unstable release. I mean sure if you want to put it onto a test board then thats fine, but you are putting the forum and the database (?) in jeprody.

I am assuming that you will be releasing an updated version of your SEO hack for 3.5? Should we expect any new exciting additions to the hack?
