'My Threads' in Quick Links menu.

[vBulletin THEN DAYLIGHT]

This one is really simple, but a useful means of members quickly following their own threads on the forum without having to go into their profile first.

It takes about 2 minutes to install. One template edit.

Installation

Open up the 'navbar' template under 'Navigation/Breadcrumb Templates'

Find:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td></tr>And add above it:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=process&amp;showposts=0&amp;starteronly=1&amp;exactname=1&amp;s earchuser=$bbuserinfo[username]">My Threads</a></td></tr>And that's it. Child's play. :) Could be added anywhere else in the Quick Links menu if you so wish.

I've uploaded a copy of the installation instructions in case you like to keep them on your computer like I do.

Nice, I like it and will use it :)

To show 'My Posts' I use this:
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=process&amp;showposts=1&amp;starteronly=0&amp;exactname=1&amp;s earchuser=$bbuserinfo[username]">My Posts</a></td></tr>

Untested.

Thank You.

Thanks.

How do I make 'New Threads' appear in the translated language on the forum?

Hi Kadi, I assume you mean 'My Threads'? You will have to make it into a phrase if you want it to translate for different languages.

Admin CP > Languages & Phrases > Phrase Manager > Add New Phrase

Phrase Type: GLOBAL
Product: vBulletin
Varname: mythreads
Text: My Threads

And then type in the different translations of 'My Threads' for each language in the translations boxes.

Save.

Now, you need to replace 'My Threads' in the code with '$vbphrase[mythreads]'.

Installed, but adjusted the search to show ALL posts made by a member and added a phrase for $vbphrase[my_posts] ;)

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=finduser&amp;u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[my_posts]</a></td></tr>

Thanks! :)

Given this is a simple template modification I don't see why it shouldn't if it has been installed properly. Are you referring to the phrase?

[Al-Fateh]

i agree with you, but nothing is showing up

[Al-Fateh]

here is what i have

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=process&amp;showposts=0&amp;starteronly=1&amp;exactname=1&amp;s earchuser=$bbuserinfo[username]">My Threads</a></td></tr>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td>

Are you looking in Quick Links in navbar after install?

[Al-Fateh]

yes...nothing there.

[blind-eddie]

ok, Are you using custom Styles? I have custom style on my site, and some style templates need to be edited seperatly.

[blind-eddie]

You forgot this before what you have <if condition="$vboptions['enablesearches']">

do=process&amp;showposts=0&amp;starteronly=1&amp;exactname=1&amp;s earchuser=$bbu serinfo[username]">My Threads</a></td></tr>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td>
