How to show

1. In discuss - 3, New in red icon used to appear before posts less than 3 days old
I can not find this in discuss 4, is there some setting to be done for this

2. In discuss - 3, while an edit was done to a post - emails were not going to all the users
However - in discuss 4 - its a good feature that email goes when an edit is been done. But - is there a setting by which when an edit is been done by superadmin then emails should not go

Even if a setting is not there - can you suggest codes to do same in which file

3. While Emails are going it shows logo of easydiscuss in emails. Is there a setting to rather remove in easydicuss logo and let site main logo to go in

Pls advise

Thanks
Hi there,

It seems that this feature have been removed from EasyDiscuss1.x. Sorry for any inconvenience.

It seems that we didn't implement this kind of settings in our Easydiscuss4.x. As you can see here http://prntscr.com/co2jut , there are no setting for sending emails notifications when the user done editing the post. Maybe what i understand is wrong. Can you please advice and guide us on how to replicate this on our local?

Hi there,

This was very useful and unsure why it was removed

This is because we have put one more feature that is "Unread" feature at Backend>Components>EasyDiscuss>Settings>Layout>Recent View as shown http://prntscr.com/cv8i8d

Hi there,

Here are the line I included in above file.

[gist type="php"]
//line 13-20
$readCss = '';
$isRead = false;
if( $this->profile->id != 0)
{
$readCss = ( $this->profile->isRead( $post->id ) || $post->legacy ) ? ' is-read' : ' is-unread';
$isRead = ( $this->profile->isRead( $post->id ) || $post->legacy ) ? false : true;
}

//line 43-45
<?php if( !$isRead ) { ?>
<span class="label label-info"><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYDISCUSS_NEW' );?></span>
<?php } ?>
?>
[/gist]
