Hello,

No big rush on this question. But could you tell me what is the code for the Related posts box - I would like to make a separate page on my site that just lists the Related posts code.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Rob
Hey Robert,

Not at this moment but this is one of our todo task for the next minor update of EasyBlog It looks like Twitter's own url shortener is messing up with unicode urls

Hi Rob,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it weekends for all of us here.

You can edit the output of author box by going into these two file:
1) /components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/entry/default.php at line 205~207 where the code is calling the file below,
2) /components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/entry/author.php

Hope these help.

Hello Ezrul,

Thank you for your reply. I do not seem to have those paths you are showing me.

I am running EasyBlog 3.9.24862

Could the path be:

components/com_easyblog/themes/default/author.info.php
components/com_easyblog/themes/default/blog.related.php

Here is a link to my site so maybe you will have a better chance to see the version I have. Isn't it just one block of code for the related posts?

Please scroll down until you see the related posts block. Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Robert

Hi Rob,

Ah I see. The path that I provided is for easyblog 5. By the way to avoid the confusion here, seeing from your screenshot it's actually an author info box and recent post by the author, not related post box. For easyblog 3.9, the path would be /components/com_easyblog/themes/default/blog.read.php at line 167~170 for the caller and /components/com_easyblog/themes/default/author.info.php for the main author info box file.

Hope these help.

Thanks Ezrul for the fast reply. Just to be sure when I copy that code it will give me the whole block of code - am I right in saying this? I would like to be able to adjust the amount of related posts to a certain blog entry author and just make a web page from the related posts.

I hope you understand.

Regards,
Robert

Hi Rob,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as I was occupied with another issue just now.

I am sorry but I'm not quite understand of what you are trying to achieve here. Do you mind to elaborate more on this? By the way our support policy does not cover customization request as it will take most of our time in order to do it. You can check out our support policy here for more info, http://stackideas.com/support . Hope you understand.

Hello Ezrul,

I am not asking for a customization. Just asking for the code that displays the related posts or recent posts after a blog entry.

If you see my screenshots all I want is the php code block that makes that recent posts box happen. Thank you for your time.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Robert

If you are on 3.9.x, the related post codes are generated from /components/com_easyblog/themes/default/author.info.php

Hi Mark!

Hello my friend. I am just looking to move that block of code to a separate page - just needed the location of it - thank you.

Quick question:

Does EasyBlog 5 have support converting links posted to Twitter with bitly yet? That is one reason I have not upgraded yet because of that. Have a great day!

Regards,
Robert
