Changing Redirect Default Selections

[Removed-1078464]

Group,

Anyone know what areas I need to edit in order to change the default selections for the "Redirect" when moving a post?

Default shows a radio button next to "Leave Permanent Redirect" and next to "Leave Expiring Redirect", "Expires in (1) (Months).

What I would like to do is change which selection by default the radio button is located next to, as well as change the default settings for the expiring redirection drop down menus.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks much

Doug

You need to edit the threadadmin_move* templates

Each template is slightly different but they call contain similar code from the area starting


<legend>$vbphrase[redirect]</legend>

Move the red code appropriately to change the default selections (you have to scroll right for one of the red pieces), and add the blue code to that one menu that has no default (place it next to any option, I added it to the number 2 as an example):

		<if condition="$show['move']">
		<fieldset class="fieldset">
			<legend>$vbphrase[redirect]</legend>
			
			<div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">
			
			<div class="fieldset">
					<label for="rb_redirect_none"><input type="radio" name="redirect" value="none" id="rb_redirect_none" />$vbphrase[leave_no_redirect]</label><br />
					<label for="rb_redirect_perm"><input type="radio" name="redirect" value="perm" id="rb_redirect_perm" [color=red]checked="checked"[/color] />$vbphrase[leave_permanent_redirect]</label><br />
					<label for="rb_redirect_expires"><input type="radio" name="redirect" value="expires" id="rb_redirect_expires" />$vbphrase[leave_expiring_redirect]</label><br />
					<img style="padding-left: 4px" class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/tree_$stylevar[textdirection].gif" alt="" border="0" /> $vbphrase[expires_in] 
					<select name="period">
						<option value="1">1</option>
						<option value="2" [color=blue]selected="selected"[/color]>2</option>
						<option value="3">3</option>
						<option value="4">4</option>
						<option value="5">5</option>
						<option value="6">6</option>
						<option value="7">7</option>
						<option value="8">8</option>
						<option value="9">9</option>
						<option value="10">10</option>
					</select>
					
					<select name="frame">
						<option value="h">$vbphrase[hours]</option>
						<option value="d">$vbphrase[days]</option>
						<option value="w">$vbphrase[weeks]</option>
						<option value="m" [color=red]selected="selected"[/color]>$vbphrase[months]</option>
						<option value="y">$vbphrase[years]</option>
					</select>
			</div>
			
			<div class="fieldset">
				$vbphrase[redirect_title]:<br />
				<input type="text" class="bginput" name="redirecttitle" value="$title" size="50" maxlength="85" />
			</div>
			
			</div>
		</fieldset>
		</if>

Thanks Jake, I will give that a try and let ya know.

Also is that the only table that I will need to edit that pertains to redirects?

Nevermind, I found it... movethreads as well.

Thanks fo the help with this Jake, Once I did a little digging I was able to figure it all out and now have it working the way I want it.

Great stuff! I've been wondering if there were an add-on for this. Thanks, Jake.

Turns out you need to edit TWO templates in vBulletin 3.6.8 PL2 (not sure about earlier versions):

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Thread Administration Templates -> threadadmin_movethread

and

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Thread Administration Templates -> threadadmin_movethreads
