{tags} Question

[Blue Ire]

I looked around, but couldn't find any info on this..

Are there any tags that can do an "if first listing" style statement so I can get an image to show -only- on the top most 'pligged' item on the front page?

Regards.

Ok, so how about a list of available tags? .. or is there such a thing?

I'm looking to do the EXACT same thing, so if anyone has any guidance on this it'd be very helpful.

I found an example of what I'm personally trying to achieve here:

http://www.plugim.com/

Notice how they have the block ad to the right of the first listing? I'm looking to do something similar but am not finding any variable that notes what listing # an item is on the first page, so that an IF statement can be used in the template.

(I assume that'd be the easiest way to achieve this effect?)

You want to use the $link_shakebox_index variable. I can't remember if it's zero based or not but the first story on the front page, or top stories or the pligg for stories page is either 0 or 1 so in link_summary.tpl you do something like this:

{if $link_shakebox_index eq 0}
...add whatever you want to display with the first story here...
{/if}

Hey, I ended up just using a 'php include once' bit... not how I wanted to do it, but it works
