Little underscore after name of comment poster

[mxm1981]

Hi,

i've been using coppermine for quite a while and I'm redesigning my customised water drop theme. Among other things, I want to underline all links (<a> tags), but as it seems, the underscore appears where it shouldn't do. For example, if I click on a picture and view the comments there is a little underscore after the name of the poster, e.g. "Mike_ (213.101.226.2)". I can only get rid of this by not underlining <a> tags. I also found out by viewing the html-source, that the code goes like this:

<td class="tableh2_compact" nowrap="nowrap">
                                        <b>sadome</b><a name="comment1234">&nbsp;</a>

                                                                                 (213.101.226.2)

</td>

I suppose that the "&nbsp;" between the <a> tags is responsible for that. So, how can I change the code from "&nbsp;</a>" to "</a>&nbsp;".

I tried to figure it out by looking in the displayimage.php, but I can't fix it as I have only very basic php knowledge and it's just to complex for me...

I appreciate any help!!

My coppermine version: 1.4.8

Copy the template you want to modify from themes/sample/theme.php to themes/yourtheme/theme.php and modify your copy.

IP address of the poster of a comment will only be visible for you as admin anyway.
An underscore is actually a character, underlining is a formating. Those two things differ and should not be mixed up.

Thank you Nibbler, it works.

I just copied the code you suggested from the theme.php of the sample folder into the theme.php in the water drop folder. To make it work i changed the following line:

Code Select Expand

<b>{MSG_AUTHOR}</b><a name="comment{MSG_ID}">&nbsp;</a>

to

Code Select Expand

<b>{MSG_AUTHOR}</b><a name="comment{MSG_ID}"></a>&nbsp;

regards,
Matt

OK, you actually discovered a bug (although only a cosmetical one). Thanks for your report and sharing your solution. Moving thread to bugs board.

[Joachim Müller]

Fixed this both in stable and devel on my local copy (haven't committed though because sf.net is down due to maintenance works). Will commit tomorrow.

[Joachim Müller]

Committed to stable and devel branch of svn.
Fix will go into cpg1.4.9 and cpg1.5.0.
