Decimal point

<td class="forum_stats" width="33%" align="center" style="white-space: nowrap"><span class="smalltext"><b>Total Topics:</b> {$stats['numthreads']}</span></td>

How can I put a coma in 1000 posts? So it looks like this 1,000


That's what it looks like at the moment, but in my ACP settings on MyBB it says it should be displaying the , in the 1000.



Is there any way of fixing this?

What version of MyBB are you using and is this setting saved in the database?

 

[Ashley S]

1.6.9 and yes.

Try changing the decimal setting from a comma to a full stop. I'm not having this problem when I try on my test board.

If that doesn't work I'd assume a plugin is interfering with it. You can test this by going to General Configuration > Disable all plugins > Click yes.

This won't deactivate them or uninstall, but just stops them from working for purposes such as this.

Open index.php file.

Find:

eval("\$forumstats = \"".$templates->get("index_stats")."\";");

After that add:

eval("\$num_topics = \"".my_number_format($stats['numthreads'])."\";");

Then in your index template, use {$num_topics} variable to get total topics with decimal seperator.

I thought it was that kavin, I assumed they had this already added in 1.6.9, which is why I asked the version the forum was using.

I got it wrong, oops!

Still not working.

Nope, they haven't added it yet. But i guess they should add it, as lot of designers now tend to use $stats variables.

Open index.php file.

Find:

eval("\$forumstats = \"".$templates->get("index_stats")."\";");

After that add:

eval("\$num_topics = \"".my_number_format($stats['numthreads'])."\";");

Then in your index template, use {$num_topics} variable to get total topics with decimal seperator.

Still not working.

Are you sure you followed the exact steps? I tried it on a 1.6.9 board and it worked fine.

Strange, should it look like this? If so then it's still not displaying the coma.

<td class="forum_stats" width="33%" align="center" style="white-space: nowrap"><span class="smalltext"><b>Total Topics:</b> {$num_topics}</span></td>
<td class="forum_stats" width="33%" align="center" style="white-space: nowrap"><span class="smalltext"><b>Total Posts:</b> {$num_posts}</span></td>

Hmm. For the num_posts to work you should add this line too to index.php

eval("\$num_posts = \"".my_number_format($stats['numposts'])."\";");

 

[Ashley S]

eval("\$num_posts = \"".my_number_format($stats['numposts'])."\";");

That's what I did, still doesn't display the , 🙁

Hmm. Not sure why it happens. As i tried both in a MyBB 1.6.9 board and it worked fine.

If it still doesn't work, you can try the javascript approach of toLocaleString().
But i won't recommend it, as it won't display same for everyone.

 

[Ashley S]

I just can't figure out why it's not working 🙁
