    Solved Post Number not showing up in some posts

    Post by VS March 17th 2016, 6:58 pm

    Hello,
    Please click this link. The post numbers appear till #375 in this page, but after that it does not display post numbers. I see the post numbers in all other threads and posts. I am not sure what's so specific on the posts in this page that it does not appear. Because of which we could not share or copy the link of a particular post.

    Can you please help me?

    Thanks in advance!

    Check post #375 to see if there is any codes that are missing closing tags? I mean edit the post to check it.

    Thanks a lot for your quick response. I checked the tags for post #375 and also the next posts. There was only "color", "bold" and "italics" tag in those posts and all the tags ended correctly.

    I also noticed just now that the post number links are missing in every page in every thread, not just in this thread, but in the bottom portion of the page. The top portion of the page (posts 1 to 15) display the number links correctly, but the bottom portion of the page does not. So it appears to be some other issue.
    Included other thread links too for your verification:

    Please let me know your analysis and also let me know if I can do to fix the issue.

    Thanks again!

    Do you have sponsored content activate for members or just guests?  Also are you the only one on your forum seeing this issue?

    Everyone is seeing this issue. In fact, one of the forum members intimated me about this issue. I don't know anything about sponsored content. Thanks.

    Wait a minute!  Is your forum's version #phpBB3 ?  If yes, phpBB 3 does not have numbered posts.  Are you using a code?

    Sorry, for some reason this support forum was loading very slow from my office. Drove back home and logging in.
    Yes, there was some script given from this forum long time back to see the post numbers. Now I don't remember where we put the code in.

    You're absolutely right!! The code which we got had posts_per_page as 15 which was causing the issue. Thanks a lot for nailing it down. I really appreciate your patience and diligence in approaching and solving the issue. I have pasted the code if it could help someone. If it is any violation, please take out the code.

    Code:
    $(function() {
     Â  ('Copyright © AvacWeb. All Rights Reserved. Use and  modification of this script is not allowed without this entire copyright notice in the original, copied, or modified script. No distribution without consent.');
     Â  var posts_per_page = 15; //number of posts you have displayed per page in topics.
     Â  var page = document.title.match(/-\sPage\s(\d+)$/), page = page ? page[1] : 1;
     Â  var posts = $('.postprofile', document.getElementById('main-content')), postnum = (page - 1) * posts_per_page;
     Â  for(var i = 0; i < posts_per_page; i++) {
     Â     if(!posts[i]) break;
     Â     var link = posts[i].previousSibling.getElementsByTagName('h2')[0].getElementsByTagName('a')[0].href;
     Â     posts[i].innerHTML = '<span class="postnumber"><a href="' + link + '">#' + ++postnum + '</a></span>' + posts[i].innerHTML;
     Â  }
    });

    Can't thank you enough for immense help!!
