Thread Compose Time

Description:
This product will determine the time taken to create a thread. It then shows that amount on the postbit. It does not (and can not) calculate the time taken to create threads prior to the hack being installed, in this case nothing is shown.

[concepts]

[installed].... this will actually come in handy!

thankyou for your time and work.

i was looking for a mod like this! thank you very much. if you can add a feature that calculates the thread times per user and shows a list of users who have much time (like top 10 compose timers) it would be awesome

When I ran a rp forum, this would have been great.

On the step2 it says :

Find:

<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

Replace With:

<!-- Start Thread Compose Time Hack -->
<if condition="$threadcompose != 1">
<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />
</if>
<!-- End Thread Compose Time Hack -->

I found 2

<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

the one above <!-- / icon and title -->

And another one is below <!-- edit note -->

Which one is correct ? :) Thanks

[Snake]

Thanks!

[abramelin]

why dont you use phrases for "seconds, minutes" how can we change those to our language now? and can you add this feature too posts too?

[Distance]

Yeah how about the post above saying prob with instructions

im also guessing when new thread is pressed again the timer restarts?

[abramelin]

and if you edit the thread it should continue from the existing time i think :)

IS there a way you can have the option to show this on the loading screen after posting instead of within the thread?

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/gaminggu/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3596) : eval()'d code on line 208

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

You can change it in the plugin "Retrieve Time". Should be easy to find.

Elaborate more please.

Are you sure you applied the edit exactly? I tried my hack on a fresh vBulletin 3.6.4 installation with no problems.

Please see my earliar post on Page 1 please

Im asking this before i install but i still clicked installed ;)

[Dismounted]

Answered that :).

A timer starts when new thread is clicked and stops when the user presses "Submit Thread".

Elaborate more please.



After making a post on the redirect page, if it's enabled, have a short thing about how long it took.

ie: "It took you 65 seconds to create your post!"

[Distance]

Hey what about when you edit it it adds to timer

[Dismounted]

I'm not guaranteeing anything, but I'll have a look at it.

[rjmjr69]

So does it always display a pop up when you post a thread? Do you have to click ok to get the page to finish refreshing?

[Dismounted]

The popup is not a normal 'Javascript Alert' it is a HTML-coded 'box'. It shows when the thread is created.
