Hello

I modified this sub assuming this should change any link in 'LINKS' but unfortunately I found that it doesn't work for links coming up with search results.

file: site:html_templates.pl

sub site_html_link {
# --------------------------------------------------------
# This routine is used to display what a link should look
# like.

my $template_link;
if ($category_name =~ "category1") {
$template_link = "link-cat1.html";
}elsif ($category_name =~ "category2") {
$template_link = "link-cat2.html";
}elsif ($category_name =~ "category3") {
$template_link = "link-cat3.html";
}else { $template_link = "link.html"; }

my %rec = @_;

# Set new and pop to either 1 or 0 for templates.
($rec{'isNew'} eq 'Yes') ? ($rec{'isNew'} = 1) : (delete $rec{'isNew'});
($rec{'isPopular'} eq 'Yes') ? ($rec{'isPopular'} = 1) : (delete $rec{'isPopular'});

return &load_template ($template_link, {

You can try a couple things:

1) Copy the codes you have in the sub site_html_link routine into the sub site_html_search_results routine in your site_html_templates.pl file.

OR

2) Edit the following lines in search.cgi file:


You will have to also edit the $link_output and $title_linked variables.

Hope this helps.

move those lines under the my %rec = @_; thingy..

and then add this below my %rec = @_;..


delete the space between "| |".. added by freakin UBB..

Hi!
unfortunately both solutions did not work.

Eliot solution: I don't undertand perhaps I made a mistake. I copied

my $template_link;
if ($category_name =~ "category1") {
$template_link = "link-cat1.html";
}elsif ($category_name =~ "category2") {
$template_link = "link-cat2.html";
}elsif ($category_name =~ "category3") {
$template_link = "link-cat3.html";
}else { $template_link = "link.html"; }

into search_results sub.
...then I did not get the <b>difference in the code</b> you told me I should edit in search cgi.
Can you tell me more? please!
--------
widgetz: I also tried your solution but the result is always the same. <b>link.html is the file printed in any case</b>

Thanks for your help.

<b> is bold. isn't it? sorry for using it.

you have categories called "category1", "category2", "category3"?

jerry

Actually to bold characters in UBB, you use (with no spaces between []).

It works this way:

----
my %rec = @_;

my $template_link;
if $rec{'Category'} =~ "category1") {
$template_link = "link-cat1.html";
}elsif ($rec{'Category'} =~ "category2") {
$template_link = "link-cat2.html";
}elsif $rec{'Category'} =~ "category3") {
$template_link = "link-cat3.html";
}else { $template_link = "link.html"; }

---

Thanks.
