Variable Details

The following are details on the LASTN_EVENT variable. For more information on modifying this variable, see the information about the style system.

LASTN_EVENT
view types:lastn
description:An event from the user's journal. A bunch of these (as specified by LASTN_OPT_ITEMS) get put together to form the %%events%% property of the LASTN_PAGE variable. See also LASTN_EVENT_PRIVATE and LASTN_EVENT_PROTECTED.
can override:No; users of the style cannot override this. It may only be defined in the style.
variable type:HTML
properties:
datetime The date and/or time of the event, as formatted by LASTN_DATE_FORMAT.
event The actual event from the journal. [required]
talklinks The value of LASTN_TALK_LINKS. If you don't want message boards on your journal, don't use this, or make LASTN_TALK_LINKS empty.
subject When the journal entry has a subject, then a LASTN_SUBJECT is inserted into this property. That way you can do some specialized HTML only when there's a subject.
itemid A unique integer that represents this journal entry. You probably won't ever have to use this.
itemargs A portion of a URL which identifies this event. This should be used when referring to memadd.bml, editjournal.bml or other similar actions which require an event to be identified in the URL. Do NOT use itemid=%%itemid%% for this purpose, or a similarly hardcoded scheme, use %%itemargs%%.
currents If the user has specified either a current mood or their current music, then a LASTN_CURRENTS gets inserted in here.
altposter If this is a shared journal (like a news account) and somebody other than the journal owner is posting, LASTN_ALTPOSTER goes into this.
