Hidden Story Summary on the front page (like indianpad.com)

[nothingman]

Attached is a screenshot.
I was wondering if creating a homepage like IndianPad / Popular Stories would be possible. On Indianpad's home page, you'll notice that the summary of all the stories are hidden by default and there's this view/hide link that toggles. The behavior is just like pligg's admin links which toggles and shows the edit story title etc.

I found this quite neat-looking and in pligg, if if you enable image/video embedding, the site display goes mish-mash.

Would it be very tough to create this? Any hints on what files to work on?

Attached are some screenshots...

In link-summary.tpl - you will need to work on it.

replace:

<span id="ls_contents-{$link_shakebox_index}">

with

{if $pagename neq "story"}<a href="javascript://" onclick="show_hide_user_links(document.getElementById('ls_contents-{$link_shakebox_index}'));">View &raquo;</a><br />{/if}
				<span id="ls_contents-{$link_shakebox_index}" style="display:none">

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply dollar5, I'll work on it. I copied/pasted the above but doesn't seem to work.
Just wondering if I'll need to change some variables?

This was for the yget template - incase you use custom templates it will not work.

Do you have this item - <span id="ls_contents-{$link_shakebox_index}">?

Its working! thanks dollar5. This wasn't working when I tried it the first time-this afternoon in the office . The error I was getting was "fatal error in error in html/class.php" (not sure what the exact error was).
Will it be possible to align the view link with the Comments, Add this link to...,Save, Tell a friend links etc?
Oh well, I'll try to figure this one out myself. I've troubled you so much already.

Tusi great ho!

Apologies for coming back to this. But is there a way to toggle the View... text (with say, Hide...)?

[chuckroast]

Use the hide code from the sidebar, modify it to fit your needs.

{php}
        echo "<span><a onclick=\"new Effect.toggle('cats','blind', {queue: 'end'}); \"> <img src=\"".my_pligg_base."/templates/".The_Template."/images/expand.png\" alt=\"expand\" /></a></span>";
    {/php}
