BasicForum: Get attachments from first post in thread

Hey,

I'm looking to modify the list of threads outputtet by the basic forum module. I want to include the attachments in the list that are affiliated with the original thread (ie. first post). There's a range of information available like Forum:Thread.Body.Resume, but not the attachments/image. There is a loop available for the attachments of the latest reply - but not the first post.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

best regards

Martin

Hi Martin

You should have a Forum:Thread.Files loop...?

Thanks for the reply!

I can't seem to find that loop. Is it inside the Threads-loop? There I only have the following loops available:

Forum:Thread.Author.Groups  
Forum:LastReply.Author.Groups  
Forum:LastReply.Images

Outside of the Threads loop I only have the following:

 

Forum:LastActiveThread.Author.Groups  
Forum:LastReply.Author.Groups  
Forum:LastThread.Author.Groups  
Forum:LastThread.Images  
Moderators  
Threads  
DwPaging.LoopAllPages  
DwPaging.LoopPageGroup

The loop is only present if there are files along with Forum:Thread.HasFiles.

Oh, I'm trying to do this from a ListThread template. Not a ShowThread template. I have the tags that you mention in the showthread, but I want a list of threads with associated images.

ok, I see, and can see that the rendering engine has that limitation built in.

I can remove it.
