Question Module under every Post

Module under every Post was created by SyNuge
I thought this would be easy but I'm scratching my head over it.

All I want to do is post two modules under every post (/message) on a page. If I only had one message per page the kunena_msg_1 position would work fine but I can't find a way to make this dynamically happen for every message.

On other posts I have seen mention of hacking the threadactions php file but this appears to add the modules to the top of the page as well as under each post and this messes up the layout.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Thanks,
Simon

OK - I worked around this by pasting the Twitter and Facebook code directly into the message.actions.php file.

Not brilliant as it won't survive an upgrade but at least it gets me going.

I can't believe there isn't a plugin for this.... Could you explain how and where you did your hack? I've put a facebook like module into my K2 template by using
Code:
<?php jimport('joomla.application.module.helper'); $mods = JModuleHelper::getModules('module_name'); echo JModuleHelper::renderModule($mods[0]); ?>

before, are you doing something similar?

Hi,

In the end I modified both message.actions.php (to add the Twitter link) and message.thankyou.php (to add the Facebook link). My thinking was that the Facebook like should show in the same circumstances as the thank you (i.e. you shouldn't be able to "like" your own post).

So my modified code was as follows:

message.actions.php
Code:
<div class="kmessage-buttons-row"> <?php if (empty( $this->message_closed )) : ?> <?php echo $this->message_quickreply; ?> <?php echo $this->message_reply; ?> <?php echo $this->message_quote; ?> <?php echo $this->message_edit; ?> <?php echo $this->message_moderate; ?> <?php echo $this->message_move; ?> <?php echo $this->message_merge; ?> <?php echo $this->message_split; ?> <?php echo $this->message_delete; ?> <?php echo $this->message_permdelete; ?> <?php echo $this->message_undelete; ?> <?php echo $this->message_publish; ?> <?php echo '<br><a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal" data-via="pQ_dotcom">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>' ?> <?php else : ?> <?php echo $this->message_closed; ?> <?php endif ?> </div>

message.thankyou.php
Code:
<div class="kpost-thankyou"> <?php echo $this->message_thankyou; ?> <?php echo '<fb:like href="http://www.psychicquesting.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=1&id=562&limit=6&limitstart=6&Itemid=31" layout="standard" show_faces="true" width="450" action="like" font="arial" colorscheme="light"></fb:like>' ?> </div>

As you can see from the second file, I am not using "raw" facebook widget code but rather a module called JFBConnect from SourceCoast as this handles users logging into to my site (and Kunena) with their Facebook credentials.

Hope that helps,
Simon

I use k2 and I like how they do their "Tweet it to your followers" I tried just pulling out of k2 what I thought was the right chunk of code but it doesn't work. It displays correctly but when I click on the tweet this link it takes me back to my home page... :(

I tried adding this
Code:
<span class="itemTwitterLink"> <a title="<?php echo JText::_('Like this? Tweet it to your followers!'); ?>" href="<?php echo $this->item->twitterURL; ?>" target="_blank"> <?php echo JText::_('Like this? Tweet it to your followers!'); ?> </a> </span

It's not processing the link correctly....

The standard Twitter widget is not bad. Is it worth testing with that (see my code above) and seeing if you can at least get that working?
