Getting parameters in 'story_summary'
By phill , Section Code [] Posted on Fri Jan 16, 2004 at 12:00:00 PM PST

I am trying to move some of the changes that I've made to the scoop code into boxes so that I can move my site to a scoop host. I'm at an impasse, however. I am trying to modify the topic_img tag inside the story_summary block so I've replaced it with a box that does the same thing with one major difference: I cannot get the tid so I can check whether or not it is a diary story. I've tried adding `my $story=shift;` and I've looked through the code in lib/Scoop. I can't seem to find a $S->somthingarouther that will return the tid or even the section. Any thoughts?

$S->_get_story_section(sid) will return the section of the story. There doesn't appear to be anything that returns the tid though, only a linkified image or text for the topic. It doesn't look like it would be hard to change, but you mention this is for a hosting company, so they may not pick up the change in CVS in time for you.

You could probably copy most of the _get_story_section functionality in a box, substituting section with tid, and store it in $S->{STORIES}->{$sid}->{tid} so it's cached the way story titles and sections are.
