[Bladicouk]

so would this damage my forum seo ? or not...

[Dismounted]

No, this should not damage your SEO.

[mutasim]

hey... it would be great if it could be set per forum basis. Because lets be honest... who is gonig to want the restrict the "Introductions" forum :P

[Bladicouk]

thanks for the quick answer dismounted.

[projectego]

Not a bad idea... I'm sure people will find this useful.

[Terminatoronly]

very useful installed ;)

[Mecho]

Thanks man .. great idea . Installed

<!-- Start Guests First Post Only Hack -->
<if condition="$memid == 1">
<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

Font with Red color , size 4 & blink text .

[Bounce]

Installed and working superb :cool:

[Smoothie]

I'm considering to implement this feature.
Allow per forum would be a nice addon. Thanks for considering.

[BigJimTheLug]

Great modification! Thank you very much. I sincerely appreciate it!

[GSPFAN]

If a visitor clicks on the last post on forum home they cannot view the first post of the thread. It work's fine if the visitor first enters the forum and then clicks on a thread. Can this be fixed?

[GSPFAN]

Also the bots are not able to access user profiles.

[AlexndR]

Cool idea! Nice!

[BuzuL]

Thanks...But Look At Archive...:)

[AzH]

I will install this when the option to have it on only selected forums becomes a reality. Great idea, but only if we can leave out certain forums.

[bigtime]

I think this is a great hack. I wonder if the long term result will be less total visitors to your forum? Please post your thoughts or for those of you using it, please post your results.

Thanks.

[lange]

Allow per forum would be a nice addon. Thanks for considering.
I am waiting me too for a basis per forum.

[Dismounted]

I'm working on it. It should be released in the next couple of days.

[Dismounted]

Hack Updated!

1/01/2007 - Version 1.1
- Can Be Enabled On Per Forum Basis

[lange]

Thank you very much!

Testing.

[Smoothie]

Can someone post a screenshot of the 'edit' window for this mod? I'd like to see the options, if any. Thanks!

[Mecho]

after update no post or privet message shows up and this error show up :

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/mechodow/public_html/forum/includes/class_postbit.php(268) : eval()'d code on line 3


any idea ?

[Smoothie]

One thing I noticed which seems rather odd. If there is only one post, the "To see more of this thread, please login or register shows, but what's there to see? Shouldn't there be a conditional inserted to only show that link if there is more than 1 post?

[Dismounted]

Hack Updated!

2/01/2007 - Version 1.2
- Fixed 'Call to a member function on a non-object' Error
- Fixed Message Being Displayed When Only One Post
- Fixed Options Not Saving Properly

[Terminatoronly]

Yes, I keep getting the same thing and when I disable it, all the posts disappear.

[derfy]

If you looked more closely at the hack plugin, it allows bots through as normal members and only genuine guests get blocked.

Ah, so it uses cloaking tecnology?

[taxick]

After install when i open privet messages i got this db error : !!

I have the same problem :(

If you disaple the hack, you have to remove the the templates edits in postbit

If you not do it, you can?t se eny post. This must be are bug to

I love the hack, hope you can fix the problem

[Mecho]

exactly ..

i uninstall it and reinstall Version 1.0 on default style . but there is another problem too ( screenshot added )

i hope Dismounted fix it . thanks in advance

[Dismounted]

Hello,

I am working on fixing the PM problem. As for Mecho, have you applied all the template changes properly?

Thanks,
Dismounted

[Mecho]

Thanks for replied .

and yes i applied all template changes . it works for another style . but the page broken when i used it for default vb style .

[AzianStang]

Followed the directions perfectly and the mod's not working... checked in both styles and I don't see it.

Upload the entire 'upload' folder or just the .xml to the xml folder???

[Bounce]

Followed the directions perfectly and the mod's not working... checked in both styles and I don't see it.

upload "bitfield_guests_first_post_only.xml" to includes/xml

open the upload first then upload includes

yip version 1.2 , i upgraded as wanted forum by forum

Yes, I keep getting the same thing and when I disable it, all the posts disappear.


yea you need to remove the code also from postbit or postbit_legacy

[Terminatoronly]

when i have uninstalled ur hack i have get a real problem that the threads doesnt shown :o and when i installed it again i can see the threads what the hell what happend to my forum :(

[Dismounted]

Hack Updated!

5/01/2007 - Version 1.3
- Fixed 'Invalid SQL' Error In PM's
- Fixed Posts Being Displayed After Message
- Fixed Options Not Saving Properly

Also, please click install if you have installed this hack, so I can send out an update to you when the hack is updated.

[AzianStang]

upload "bitfield_guests_first_post_only.xml" to includes/xml

open the upload first then upload includes
That doesn't make sense... then I'm asked to overwrite the .xml.

So let me get this straight...

Upload the includes/xml from the upload folder into the forums root directory? Is it not the same thing as uploading just the xml to the includes/xml folder ALREADY in my forums root directory? Because that's what I'm doing, and I'm seeing nothing. Templates look perfect.

:tired:

[Dismounted]

It IS the same thing. Just upload the contents of the upload folder into the forum's root directory.

[Terminatoronly]

UNINSTALLED
Do a full uninstall and install again of version 1.3, it's probably caused by my changes in the database and it doesn't apply the install code as it was upgraded.

[BigJimTheLug]

This is a nice hack, but I'd rather let my "audience" view everything.


Good work!

*Installed*


Every version has worked fine for me, but then again, I'm mastering vbulletin coding as days pass by!:)

VBrocks!

[Dismounted]

I should have fixed that problem in version 1.3, do you have any other hacks installed?

[Mecho]

I tried to install all versions and at last ver1.4 . I have many installed hacks ( is the problem caused by this? )

Thanks

[Dismounted]

A hack can cause problems, it depends what they do.

[Mecho]

and i'm sure after that i didnt install any new hack .


i just have this problem in Default VB style .. it 100% ok in other style :(

[Godders25]

Fab idea - But when I install it if there is more than one page of posts in the thread if I click on the "Go to last post" icon I get a blank page rather than any message. It kinda makes the forum look like it's broken rather than your not allowed to see anything.

:)

[osso12]

I am going to try again today..
on 1.2 I was having pm issues.
Ill try the new version today and let yall know.
I know this is gonna be a good hack.
:D

[osso12]

well i dont see that it does a darn thing.
If I log off, and dont log back in, I can read all the posts as any guest could do.
What does this thing do, or what am i doing wrong if anything?

With the version I installed you have to enable it on a per forum basis in Forum Manager - HTH :)

[osso12]

let me try that.
well... im not seeing anything in the forum manager to enable it..
Is it in a usergroup setting?
I installed latest version of the hack...1.4

[osso12]

im not seeing anything under acp options, or user group settings...
Sounds like the author needs to make a setting in acp options where the mod can be turned off and on..
I guess we can always turn the view threads "off" under unregistered/logged off user group setting.
Still here, and waiting..

[Godders25]

Forums and Moderators->Forum Manager->Choose "Edit Forum" from the drop down for one of your forums and click "Go".

Then at the bottom you get:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2007/09/11.jpg

There doesn't appear to be any global on or off setting

[osso12]

i see it now.
Thanks.
Its just in kinda of a odd place, and I did not see it in the install instructions how to get to it.
But its there.
Thanks bud!
:)

[osso12]

works awesome! this is great!

If you think about it, it's not really in an odd place :p.

[kewl1uk]

Sorry, I had to uninstall due to the error in viewing a single post causing real problems on my board.

[Mecho]

Are you sure? It's working fine for me.

i dunno why its not work find in default style .. in another one it works 100% fine :(

where should i check for it ?
thanks

[Dismounted]

Check the template edits.

[stonner]

is it possible to allow the first TWO posts instad of one?

thank you!

great idea!

[Dismounted]

Change the plugin "Guest Check", find:
if (($show['guest']) AND (!$bot) AND ($post['postcount'] == 1) AND ($gfpo == 1))
Replace With:
if (($show['guest']) AND (!$bot) AND ($post['postcount'] == 1 || $post['postcount'] == 2) AND ($gfpo == 1))

[stonner]

i got the same db-error when I click on some profiles: gfpoforumoptions

how can i fix this?

till this is fixed, i had to uninstall this great hack!

[Dismounted]

I'll have a look into it. Is there any particular part of the profile it is happening in?

[Mecho]

Uninstalled .. Still not stable !

but Great idea - thanks anyway Dismounted

[stonner]

I really want this hack! It's great!
i already noticed that i had more registrations.

but i have to wait for a bug-free update.

maybe it's because i have installed the hack vS-Interactive Profiles?

[Dismounted]

What specific part is it happening in?

[Tom_S]

It did nothing for me. It didn't mess anything up but after installation and setting the forums I chose to allow guest to see first post it showed nothing.

[Dismounted]

Did you do the template edits?

[HMBeaty]

Awesome.

/me clicks installed

[stonner]

I will install it again as soon as it is updated!

THE BEST HACK!

[hiepsi@]

How about 3.6.5? Who have this hack ?

[Dismounted]

Should work fine for 3.6.5.

[Zagis]

It did nothing for me too. After installation and setting the forums I chose to allow guest to see first post it showed nothing.
Did you do the template edits?
I did... postbit & postbit_leagcy, but nothing happened. (vb 3.6.5)

[Dismounted]

Do you have any other mods that could affect postbit/postbit_leagcy?

[Zagis]

Such as?
I think I got some...

[Dismounted]

Anything that has to do with posting.

[Zagis]

Yes, I got "ICash", "Post Thank You Hack", "SendPM", and "ShowProfileFieldInPostBits"

[Dismounted]

Which vBulletin version are you running? Also, could you PM your forum's URL?

[Zagis]

vB 3.6.5. PM has been sent.

[Zagis]

Solved...
Instaled.

[stonner]

I changed the layout abit:

Demo: http://www.schuelerforum.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1395

I would remove your IP address from your post. The is caused by a conflict with the hack: Profile Commenting. As I do not have a copy, could you please send me a copy of the hack to fix your problem?

Thanks.

[stonner]

in vB-options it is already "Don't save".

No, from the post you posted above. Edit it and remove the IP address. You don't have to if you don't want to, just security precautions.

[stonner]

ok thanks :)

How to make compatible "Guests First Post Only" with GARS

Thanks

Sorry, this hack is incompatible with GARS as it does not use the postbit templates and there is no way to hook into the files to apply code unless you edit the file directly.

Hi there - I've just found out about a bit of a problem I'm having with this hack.

In this thread (http://www.nellysplace.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3465) on my board it appears that people using the AOL browser software arn't affected by the hack and can see everything. The same people then try using firefox or IE and it works as expected.

Your welcome to go and have a read through by you will have to register first (or use the AOL browser) or your own hack will stop you. Let me know if you are waiting for admin approval and I'll get you authorised.

Cheers

Godders

[Mecho]

Hi , i'm really need this hack . i tried to install new version but nothing changed .

i checked everything ( upload the file . import , edit templates ) 3times ! but still guests can see all posts ..

i'm really appreciate it if anybody can help .

Thanks
" Installed Again "

[Dismounted]

Then something is wrong with your style as this does not and should not happen. If you want me to, I can install it on your forums for you, drop me a PM.

[Mecho]

ok Thanks .. pm Sent

[Dismounted]

Fixed for Mecho.

[Mecho]

yea it works 100% for me ( vb 3.6.5 ) ...

Thanks alot Dismounted for check my site and fix everything :)

[XanTrax]

Just a suggestion, you should/could make the permission for on/off per usergroup OR a global option and then edit on/off from there so we dont have to go to every forum section and turn it on or off.

[Dismounted]

It could be included.

[Godders25]

Hi

Would it be easy enough / possible to extend this mod to include people who have not accepted the confirmation e-mail from seeing the whole thread.

Until they accept it I don't consider them members.

Cheers

[Dismounted]

No, this hack uses very little resources.

[eurofunny]

Hi very nice Hack but i have a style problem see at here http://www.my-checkpoint.de/ich-hab-meine-t816.html

What can i do??

thx from Germany

[Dismounted]

You have a unclosed <if> tag in your template, this is what happened with Mecho. Look through your postbit_legacy template and match all <if>'s to a closing one.

[eurofunny]

Hello, okay thx for the quick help. The Style is now ok but when a guest comes on this site then comes the first post then the message and then all the last messages. What is wrong here. Have a nice day.

[Dismounted]

That was the problem I was referring to. You have edited your style wrong and forgot to put a closing if tag (</if>).

[eurofunny]

Hi,

i have this code at my postbit
at the top
<!-- Start Guests First Post Only Hack -->
<if condition="$memid == 1 || $memid == 2"></if>
<!-- End Guests First Post Only Hack -->

and at the bottom

<!-- Start Guests First Post Only Hack -->
<if condition="$memid == 1">

That doesn't matter. The problem is that you have an if condition that is closing mine, therefore my hack cancels out.

[Dismounted]

I can't 'post' the right code as I do not have your postbit template. Do you even understand the problem?

The code that i post is the postbit_legacy :)

[Terminatoronly]

i installed it but its not working for me i edited the templates too

[Dismounted]

I reckon it's because you have an extra end if condition.

[Terminatoronly]

i cant get this mod working please help well you please install it for me i will be much appreciated

[princeedward]

..many thanks....for this...work like a charm to my vb forum v3.6.5 ...easy to install without any problem...
great idea bro...wonderful mod hack...

keep it up...and best regards...

:p

[Mum]

Doesn't work for me, all edits done correct and product installed, but still shows everything to guests.

[Dismounted]

As above, check that you don't have loose </if>'s in your postbit (or postbit_legacy).

[nymyth]

installed....love the mod.....a great feature to have would be if we can enable it to all forums....it takes a while to go through every forum and enable it...lol

[jasculs]

I have a custom profile using the Interactive Profiles Mod and when I install this mod it makes a database error when you click on a users profile. It is definitely this mod that is conflicting with it because when I disable your mod the profiles show up just fine without the database errors. Here is the error I'm getting:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.7:

Invalid SQL:

Help fixing this would be great as I could really use this mod that you are offering here.

My profile is using these two mods also:

MySpace Profile Re-Write PRO 1.0.0

Thank you for any help

[Dismounted]

I'll have a look.

EDIT: Create a plugin at the hook: 'profile_start' and set the Execution Order to 1. Enter this for the PHP code.
$isnotpost = 1;

[jasculs]

Ok will I did that and the same problem is happening, however it isn't happening with all of the profiles I try to visit some profiles work and some don't. It doesn't seem to have a pattern either as far as which ones work an which ones don't

[Dismounted]

Hmmm, weird. Are you sure there's no pattern?

[jasculs]

Unfortunately I can't notice any type of pattern. People from different usergroups are getting the errors while others are not. Also I was checking the username numbers and there isn't a pattern. It is pretty weird. I was trying to find it there was a pattern or not but I couldn't. I could really use this mod too.

[quiklink]

Here is your problem eurofunny:

<if condition="$memid == 1 || $memid == 2"></if>

you are closing off the very first if statement (line 2 in your postbit template)

Now I am having the same problem with the mod not working. I have repeatedly checked my open and closing IF statements. I have 53 opening and 53 closing. Yet it won't work.

[quiklink]

Ever have one of those days when your brain just doesn't work? Disregard my last post saying it wouldn't work...It helps if you actually enable the mod for the forum you want it to work for...DOH!

[nymyth]

^^have you enabled this inside of each individual forum??

[quiklink]

^^have you enabled this inside of each individual forum??

That's what I was saying I forgot to do until my brain quit being on strike ;)

All is working fine now. Great mod! Hopefully this will get those members who don't bother to log in to do so now.

[nymyth]

yeah I totally missed that post...lol....good to see you got it working...

[quiklink]

I did notice that it reset the Viewing Order, the Order Threads By, and the Show Last X Posts in every forum I turned it on in. No biggie, just had to go back and reset 50 or so forums ;)

[jasculs]

Dismounted,

Did you have happen to figured out why a SQL error shows up when you click on the profiles if someone has the vs- Interactive Profiles mod installed on their site? Thanks

[nymyth]

I did notice that it reset the Viewing Order, the Order Threads By, and the Show Last X Posts in every forum I turned it on in. No biggie, just had to go back and reset 50 or so forums ;)
confused....could u explain please?

[quiklink]

confused....could u explain please?

In the AdminCP for each forum you can set what date range of posts are displayed, what order (Ascending or Descending) and what the posts are sorted on (Title, Last Post, etc.). These were reset to the first option for each in every forum I turned this mod on in. So instead of showing All Entries, Sorted By Last Post Time (Descending) each forum changed to showing All Post from Last Day, Sorted By Title (Ascending).

[G0F0RBR0KE]

It's working now.
Silly me :)

[Dismounted]

Now I am having the same problem with the mod not working. I have repeatedly checked my open and closing IF statements. I have 53 opening and 53 closing. Yet it won't work.
Are they opened and closed in the correct order?

[quiklink]

Are they opened and closed in the correct order?

Note my follow-up post after that one ;) All is working, I had a brain cramp at the time!

[jasculs]

Still no way to find out why this isn't working with vS-Interactive Profiles huh?

[soletrader]

hello, how can i add another usergroup besides guests into this hack? thanks

[Dismounted]

Still no way to find out why this isn't working with vS-Interactive Profiles huh?
If it working sometimes and sometimes not, without a pattern, then I have no clue.
hello, how can i add another usergroup besides guests into this hack? thanks
You must change the plugin to check for other usergroups. Frankly, I don't know why you'd want to be blocking actual members...

[Arrangements]

You should set it as 'Yes' as default so that we don't have to press Yes to all our forums. It save a lot of time.

[Arrangements]

There is bug or more of a turnaround that makes this mod useless, for guest you can go to thread tools and click 'Show Printable Version'

Oh ok this is a series BUG

Hi

Just installed this and its great - quick question

How do I change The Message

Welcome!
To see more of this thread, please login or register.

The word Register is a hyperlink to http://myforum/register.php

I would like to put a hyperlink on the word login :confused: that redirects to my home page

Have searched thru the phrases and can't find it - have looked at both xml files & cant find it - I am still learning so any help would be most appreciated.

[raiderlax]

Wow this looks like a great mod, I'm looking for something VERY VERY close to this, see my thread here, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=154273

Look in your template edit.

PS. I will be releasing an update soon that will get rid of the need to edit your templates and hopefully solving a lot of people's problems.

[foulplay]

I get a vbulletin database error when viewing profiles????

[jasculs]

Are you using the vS-Interactive Profiles....if so I get the same error when using this mod....there hasn't been a fix for it yet.

[raiderlax]

What's the difference except from the text you see?


That one shows that text for each reply instead of the reply text. so if theirs 2 replies, than that is their twice under each persons reply.

[raiderlax]

Okay I installed and this is showing all the other messages, it doesn't seem to work,

see here for example:

http://talkfitness.org/supplements/525-does-muscle-works.html

How do I fix this?

Thanks :)

[Dismounted]

Again, you probably have a stray end if (</if>) that cancels out the one by this hack. I suggest you wait for the update.

[raiderlax]

Okay thanks, I'm going to uninstall this for now until the update comes out, may I ask when it will come out?

Thanks :)

[Dismounted]

A couple of days if nothing goes wrong.

[raiderlax]

Awesome thanks :)

[raiderlax]

Hows the update coming along?, I'm waiting to install this on my 3.6.8 board, thanks Dismounted :)

[Dismounted]

I'm a bit busy with homework, but it's coming along.

[raiderlax]

I'm a bit busy with homework, but it's coming along.


Okay thanks Dismounted for the update, take your time on it, we appreciate your work!

[Snider]

waiting patiently !!

[skrazydogz]

it doesn`t work on vbulletin 3.6.8 :(

[Rat1972]

indeed, doesnt work in 3.6.8

[sunnycher]

If you have a paid forum, can it be set to REGISTERED members see first post but to read the rest you must become a PREMIUM member and send them to the link to join the site by paying for membership?

[bigraph]

sweet, hopefully more register!

[raiderlax]

it doesn`t work on vbulletin 3.6.8 :(

Yes their is a new UPDATE that is going to come out soon, the coder is just currently busy at the moment, give him/her some time and it should be an awesome mod, hopefully working for 3.6.8 :)

[bigraph]

woops, doesnt work on 3.6.8, will wait out for new version

[yaoren]

**Installed**

But can't get it working on 3.6.7
I followed the instructione but no joy :(
(disabled until update comes out)

Update

I had to uninstall due to the fact I couldn't see any posts made in the forum. I could see the title of it but once you click on that, the post itself was blank... no good when you have files to share ;)

Thanks ... but no thanks!

[HarryBO]

Same problem as yaoren :(

[raiderlax]

Everyone just wait until the update comes out :)

[HarryBO]

@yaoren: You must reinstall the entries @postbit & postbit legacy, then you can see all posts ;)

So hows it going ? :)

[Dismounted]

Still trying to fit time in. I'm really busy as I've got interim exams.

[foulplay]

any updates? I really need this hack

[succo]

ok, for the usernote error, add a plugin at usernote_start with $isnotpost = 1; in it... that's all :)

[MediaHound]

Forums and Moderators->Forum Manager->Choose "Edit Forum" from the drop down for one of your forums and click "Go".

Then at the bottom you get:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2007/09/11.jpg

There doesn't appear to be any global on or off setting

I installed the mod and would like to start using it, however I'm not seeing this bit when I click to edit any of my forums.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2007/09/11.jpg
and so I cannot turn it on!
Any advice?
3.6.0

[MediaHound]

I figured it out
The install instructions suggest that for an upgrade to:
(Rebuild Bitfields):
* Goto http://YOURDOMAIN/admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

So, even though mine was a new installation, I rebuilt the bitfields, and now the enabling option appears for my forums.
May I suggest you fix your install directions so that new installations are directed to rebuild the bitfields as well as those doing an upgrade?
Hope this helps the rest of you that are to shy to post that it didn't work when you follow the directions :)

[MediaHound]

and btw, great mod, don't get me wrong... :)
I appreciate your hard work on it, really, much appreciated!
:)

[MediaHound]

One thing that would be really cool would be to change the message from:
To see more of this thread, please login or register.
to:
This thread has ## replies! To see more of this thread, please login or register.
(or if 1 reply, to singular reply...)

...so that it pulls the number of replies and inserts it.
That would be great! :)

Thanks again, this mod should be a default feature of vb!

Anyone who has it working with 3.6.7 ?

and is it possible to get it working for other usergroups ?

[Dismounted]

Yes, it is working with 3.6.7. And yes, it is possible to work it with other usergroups, but you'll need to manually edit the plugins.

[kube]

Great, thanks for that information !

[kube]

In the plugin 'Guest Check', find:
if (($show['guest']) AND (!$bot) AND ($post['postcount'] == 1) AND ($gfpo == 1))
Replace With:
if (($show['guest']) AND (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 3)) AND (!$bot) AND ($post['postcount'] == 1) AND ($gfpo == 1))
Find:
elseif ((!$show['guest']) OR ($bot) OR ($gfpo == 0))
Replace With:
elseif ((!$show['guest']) OR (!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 3)) OR ($bot) OR ($gfpo == 0))


If I do that, the guests can see all again AND Usergroup 3 also.

In Standard working fine for guest, but I also need it for other usergroups (primary and secondary).
Do you have an idea, what to change ?

I also tried:
is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 3,1)
but not working.

[Dismounted]

It should be working...Maybe add this to the top of the plugin (if it's not already there).
global $vbulletin;

[kube]

unfortunatly still not working for other groups then guests.

for guests only working perfect

[forumrunt]

Thanks this looks great. Has anyone seen increased registration with it?

[Koroku]

Hmm, this would be perfect. Too bad it's not working with 3.6.8 =/

I'll have to wait and install it when it does ^^

It does work with 3.6.8.

[forumrunt]

I just installed it on 3.6.8 and it works fine

Hello Dismounted,

Any plans for fixing this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1324845#post1324845)?

[charles abiola]

global $vbulletin;There is no script you talking about in 1.4 version or (bot) or check guest, I might missing something here.
Any direction to locate this script.

[charles abiola]

Installed! Work perfect! More info to locate the plugin script.

What are you trying to do?

I think you mean this: ok, for the usernote error, add a plugin at usernote_start with $isnotpost = 1; in it... that's all :) but I'm not quite sure how to do that.

Where to add $isnotpost = 1; ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Add it in a plugin, the hook location was given in that post.

It is, I suggested adding to to the user who wanted to add extra functionality themselves.

[Mum]

I have installed this on www.mummybrain.com and followed all steps (modifying templates, installing plugin etc), but when i log out i can still read all the posts. Please help me figure this out.

[Dismounted]

You're probably like all the others, you've got a few stray end if tags in your postbit(_legacy) template.

I got it...

It works now, thanks ;)

[Mum]

You're probably like all the others, you've got a few stray end if tags in your postbit(_legacy) template.I've been through and checked but can't find any.

Never mind, thanks, it was a great idea!

[Redlee]

I'm confused. For this mod to work I still need to search my postbit templates for stray ifs??? :cool:

[Dismounted]

You only need to search for stray conditionals because you've incorrectly edited your templates. Otherwise, you'll be fine.

[Redlee]

I can't get it to work. I searched and didn't find anything. :erm:

[Dismounted]

What do you mean you searched? What did you search for?

[Redlee]

I searched in the postbit and postbit legacy templates and dont know enough about code to see if anything is stray. :eek: I changed to another style and I still don't get the option for this hack in my forum permissions :(

[Dismounted]

I'll give you an example. Look at this:
<if condition="...">
Do something
</if>
</if>
See how there's an extra end if? If you do the template edits required for my modification, you get:
<if condition="$memid == 1">
<if condition="...">
Do something
</if>
</if>
Everyone will see this.
<else />
No one sees this because the above end if cancels out this condition.
</if>

[Redlee]

Ok I will check again. Thanks for the help. :)

[Redlee]

I still can't find a stray </if>. Is this the only problem it could be? and also I was wondering is it more likely to have to many </if> or not enough. Thanks for any help I really would like to use this hack. :cool:

[Dismounted]

Yes, it could also be because you've got not enough </if>'s.

[Konstantinos]

are these lines normal ? both ie and firefox how to get rid of the lines ?71268

[Dismounted]

You seem to have extra code hidden somewhere.

[nickypoooo]

Great mod, Installed

[turkforum]

Hey there it seems like great hack for showthread..
But before I install it, I have some questions..
1.Is it effecting search engines to crawl? In other words, is it bad for seo?

2.Is this also reducing server loads because of it is not showing after first post? Or the other way arround?
(I just get my 80k hits from google)
3. What is difference beetwen this two?
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124395
Thank you.. :)

[Dismounted]

1./ No.
2./ This should not affect server performance whatsoever.
3./ I really don't know, I haven't heard of that modification.

[kube]

Working fine BUT if you change to for example to hybrid view, you can see all posts !

[LewisAinslie]

Nice work mate, thanx.

[WreckRman2]

Good work... I like it.

[forumrunt]

Where is the hack that allows spiders in? I love the first post hack installing asap

[WreckRman2]

My registrations went from 3-5 a day to 30-40 a day over the past 3 days since installing this. Finally forced all them lurkers to join. LOL

[youradhere4222]

I'm running 3.7.2, and this isn't working.

I've set the permissions under the forum manager, and I'm still not seeing results. I've uninstalled and installed again - nothing is happening. :(

[WreckRman2]

Designed for vB Version: 3.6.x

[UltraFanatics]

Then something is wrong with your style as this does not and should not happen. If you want me to, I can install it on your forums for you, drop me a PM.

Can you do this for me please? I have tried time and time again but still can't get it working

[UltraFanatics]

Now done, awesome mod!

[Zagis]

This is a great hack, however I'd like to now if what this mod does consider as cloaking tecnology? I mean, is it possible to get banned from SEs because of using this hack?

[Zagis]

this mod uses cloaking tecnology?
Well, I guess it does even if I'm not getting any answers, so I have to uninstall this product cuz I think is better to get less registrations than to get banned from search engines (soon or later).

[abroad]

I would like to have this for 3.7.0!!!

I'm not online 24/7 to answer questions. Going overseas makes it even harder to get online.
I would like to have this for 3.7.0!!!
As with my other modifications, I haven't had the time to play with 3.7 yet, but they will get there.

[buurman]

Just what I was looking for, thank you very much m8!!!

[buurman]

Counted all my <if and </if> in all my postbits, but its not working, am I missing something?

Thx for the help in advance...
