Hi,

i have a problem with this mod. If i use it to sort the stickies and afterwards decide to make one not sticky again, this topic does not show up in the board.

Rebuilding the message index fixes this problem, but the stickies are not sorted afterwards, too.

Can anyone confirm this behaviour?

I was not able to replicate your issue.  Why don't you replicate it and before rebuilding the message index, get a copy of the board text file in the boardsdir and post it here. 

I don't know why you're having this issue, but the only file this mod deals with is those board files.  They are read in sequential order and each thread is then designated as either a sticky or normal thread.  What this mod does is just move one sticky entry to the next sticky entry, so that when the page is built, the sticky in questions comes before or after the next sticky.

Just try a post the file, and we'll see what we can do.

Yes, I see what you mean.  Right now, I am fairly busy with life stuff, but maybe soon I can come out with a new beta version that would be more friendly.

Okay, here is a quick fix.  I'm not sure if this will be a final fix or not, it may be. The problem is that the way the board file is constucted does not lend itself well to having things shuffled.  So, this little fix actually makes sure that eveything is in chronological order and then prints it back to the original file. This process is done anytime you modify a thread's sticky status. This is placed so that files do not have to be opened and written to more than they already are.

Anyway, in the file SetStatus.pl

<Search for>
Code
Select All
	fopen(CTBFILE, ">$datadir/$ctbid.ctb");
	print CTBFILE @ctbfile;
	fclose(CTBFILE);
	fopen(BOARDFILE, "$boardsdir/$currentboard.txt") || &fatal_error("$txt{'23'} $currentboard.txt", 1);
	@boardfile = <BOARDFILE>;
	fclose(BOARDFILE); 


</Search for>

<Add after>
Code
Select All
	### Sticky Shimmy Shuffle mod ###
	foreach (@boardfile) {
		($mnum, $msub, $mname, $memail, $mdate, $mreplies, $musername, $micon, $mstate) = split(/\|/, $_);
		if ($mstate =~ /s/i || $mstate =~ /a/i) {push (@stickies, $_);}
		else {$Boardorder{$mdate} = $_;}
	}
	@keys = reverse sort { $a <=> $b } (keys %Boardorder);
	foreach (@keys) {
		push (@neworder, $Boardorder{$_});
	}
	push (@stickies, @neworder);
	@boardfile = @stickies;
	### Sticky Shimmy Shuffle mod end ### 


</Add After>

I have tested this and it does resolve the issue. 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I've noticed with this mod that let's say you have sticky unlocked post 1,2,3,4 with one being at the top and 4 at the bottom. If you bump 1 down to 2 with the shuffle mod so you'll have sticky unlocked post 2,1,3,4, let's say someone responds to post 1 this response rearranges the order back to 1,2,3,4. I'm using Yabb 2.1 with the latest Shuffle mod. Is anyone else having this problem or is just me?

Yeah, its a YaBB bug.  I think I will try to include a temp fix in the mod  I have in the beta section right now, until they release Y2.2

No time fram though.

jans,

I am terribly sorry about your board, but if you would have read the beta board (where the latest edition is) you would have known that this problem exists (documented 12/2/05).  I am currently working on a fix, but I am waiting on one of the YaBB developers to possible redo a fix they did earlier for cvs version. If things do not pan out there, I have another idea on fixing things.

You do have to realize that things like this happen. Becuase of limitations to this board (which will soon be remedied) I was not able to contact each individual to annuonce the problem.

Modders do release mods out of courtesy to the best of there ability and I am confident that this mod will work without flaws with the fix I have planned. With any mod, you risk damage to your board especially when a mod has already been documented to have an issue.

Once again, I'm sorry this happened.
