You add $platest the forumhome template.

Michael Biddle
07-18-2008, 01:31 AM
When it is going under their it is looking for this comment line in the template

<!-- what's going on box -->

If that is not in the forumhome template, then the auto edit will not work.

a very good hack, thanks alot. Installing was easy.
But I have a little big problem:
Exclude Forums - Choose what forums you do not want to be listed
I have 178 forums on my board and want to show only 1 of them in the hack.
Is there a way to make it easier and faster, beside of adding all 177 forums into the exclulde field?
Maybe adding a new line (form) into the hack so you can add "include Forums" and not only "exclude Forums"

Michael Biddle
07-19-2008, 08:27 PM
If you only want to include one then you can edit the 'main code' plugin that is added with this addon. Find:

WHERE post.visible = '1' AND thread.visible = '1' AND open = '1' AND $platest_and AND $platest_and_1Change to:

WHERE post.visible = '1' AND thread.visible = '1' AND open = '1' AND forum.forumid = x

Where x is your forumid.

MrAd
07-20-2008, 09:19 AM
Great, thanks for your quick help, Michael.
Dont want to become a pain in your a**, but now I have another problem:

I want to use this hack as kind of advertising and this means that I want to show the latest x posts from a forum, which is not accessable (not visible) for normal users. They should see topic-titles, but not the content of the post. Is there any chance to make it work?

Michael Biddle
07-20-2008, 09:41 PM
Well if you set the cutoff to 0, then they will only see the titles. The change above will not include the forum permissions, so all will show.

MrAd
07-21-2008, 07:01 AM
As admin I see other latest posts than a normal user.
Example: I´ve a private area and only one usergroup (specials) can enter this area. If I now setup the hack to exclude all other forums so that only this private area is using the hack.
The result is that I (logged in as admin) see the latest posts (topic titles) in the private area, while normal members see nothing.
So the hack is using the forumpermissions of the different usergroups.
-
What I have in mind is to show the latest posts from a specified forum, no matter if the members have the permissions to enter this specified forum or not. As I have set the cutoff to 0, they only can see the topic title and if they click on such a link, the board-software, depending on the usergroup-persmissions, will either show them the topic or give them an error-message

Michael Biddle
07-22-2008, 05:27 AM
Like I said, the fix above will not use the forum permissions. It will show to all.

Installed and Works Great.

Would like some help in changing the template to display the following: delete "Forum" and "Author" info and replace with "Last Reply" and "Replies/Views".

Deleting the existing "Forum" and "Author" code is not a problem - need help with the new code to replace them with the "Last Reply" (date) and "Replies/Views" (counts from the posts - how many times viewed and how many replies). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Great hack, but just a little question from my side... what do I have to do if I would like to also have an highlight on the latest posts if they're new?
Or for example - if I would like to have the thread icon (I hope you know what I mean?) in front of the latest posts?

Is there no way to use this on the 'showthread' template? I tried adding $platest to showthread, but it doesn't work. Is there some technical reason this can't be done?

Also, my question from earlier (which others have asked since) :
Is it possible to add Post Icons?

Michael Biddle
08-05-2008, 04:05 AM
The technical reason is that it is only to be shown on the forumhome template.

Great Mod with heaps of parental to do things with, I am like others and would like to see "post icons", "Last Reply" and "Replies/Views", there seems to be plenty of room for this.

Not sure if the text is needed below the thread title, I removed it on my template as it just took up too much room at the top if showing 10 posts.

michael, how would i write a simple php file to put $platest on a separate page by itself? my members are requesting a way to have the most recent 50 or so on a page by themselves, but i don't have the skills to do such a thing. (and 50 would make the index just a bit large ;))

You can try this:

It will show the latest 50 on this page: www.yoursite.com/misc.php?do=latest50

Note: It will use the same option as the latest x post value to either show/not show the page text.

Michael Biddle

Yes, if it is not working, then you can install it, and add the $platest into your forumhome template and it should work. might be a problem with a custom template.

Installed it and it is a pain in the neck. It does show the latest posts, but clicking on the post only refreshes the page (ditto for clicking on the author) .. and messes it up big time. Buttons dissapear, I cannot get to posts and I cannot even log out!! I have to close IE, clear the cache and than log in again.
What is wrong here? Am using VB 3.7.4 PL1

http://die16-clan.com/forum/entertainment/3433-what-you-listening-right-now-post85212.html

Can you perhaps tell if I might be overlooking something?
Could it be because of the ? character at the end of "What are you listening to right now?" perhaps? (Other special characters does seem to get stripped)

Edit:

Strange, it only seems to happen when hovering a thread. After submitting the link it automatically gets rewritten to #post85186

Could this still cause duplicate content you think?

It always shows the latest post from a thread.

You could change

$vboptions[bburl]/showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$ppostid

to

$vboptions[bburl]/showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$pthreadid

in the Latest X Post on Forum Home > main code plugin, however the date and time shown will be from the latest post, not from the first post.

(Michael's Latest X Threads on Forumhome (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=165830) might be a better alternative for you. Or you can try both.)

<td class="thead" width="$vboptions[latest_forum_width]">
$vbphrase[latest_forum]

01-30-2009, 02:19 AM
It logs every single user out, or it logs the user out that clicks that link?

sorry for the late reply. i was having some sort of logout issues anyway with the forum, regardless of both of your products. it was something in the navbar. i reverted the template, then put the link for the last 50 back, and it worked. everything is fixed.

the reason i found this is because a member that used IE said that clicking 'log out' made her computer freeze up, so i went looking online and found that people who reverted the templates fixed the problem.

so, navbar template, something i did, im not sure what. :/

thanks for the reply, and again thanks for the mod :)

It is possible, although it would require to change the plugin from something like this:
// strips the bbcode out of the post
$row['pagetext'] = strip_bbcode($row['pagetext'], $stripquotes = true, $fast_and_dirty = false, $showlinks = true);
to this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=82693

It 'd probably be best to wait for the author's reply for this question.

Michael Biddle
02-20-2009, 12:34 AM
Well this mod strips the bbcode, so parsing it is not really an option. Reason it is stripped is if you use the cutoff, then it could cut out the end bbcode, so you would just have the starting bbcode shown.

I installed this, but it showed at the top of my forum above the "What's Going On" area. When I manually put $latest under it on Forum Home temp it doesn't show. Am I doing something wrong here?

You don't have to include anything to your templates, unless you'd choose a different position as the options will give you.

Currently, I believe those options are:
under navbar, under forum or above forum

The only thing to do is to install (and enable) the product

When you say click install - Where is that option available to me? On my site (where) or on this forum?

Michael, I have an interesting scenario on my forum.
Basically, there is a forum where members can talk to staff and only see their threads they started ... is it possible to make an alteration so that instead of seeing all latest posts in that forum ... they only see the ones they started IN THAT forum?
Gosh, I hope you got what I was trying to say! heh!

So you want this to show the latest replies to threads they make in a specific forum?

What does only in that forum mean?

well, using the model below:

Forum 1 - Can only see threads you start
Forum 2 - Can see anything
Forum 3 - Can see anything
Forum 4 - Can see anything

Basically, the mod shows all of the latest posts, but in forum 1, it shows all of the posts even in the threads they are not supposed to see ... I was hoping there was a way to make them see posts from Forum 1 only if it is from their threads ...

Firstly thank you for this excellent mod.

I run a humour forum which has a main forum, and a handful of smaller off-topic forums.

I would like it if I could have 2 seperate tables. The first table would show the latest 20 posts from the main forum, and the second table would show the latest 20 posts from all of the other forums combined.

Would this require a major rewrite or could I achieve it by making smaller modifications to the plugin?

Any help appreciated.

Does the Location "Under Forum" mean it will show the last post under every top-level forum on my forumhome?

is there a way to make this mod display multiple post from a single thread ?
for example, if i were to setup such that i want to display the latest 5 posts on the forum home, and the posts on all my forums as follows

1001hrs ... Thread01Post01
1002hrs ... Thread02Post01
1002hrs ... Thread03Post03
1002hrs ... Thread10Post01
1002hrs ... Thread09Post01
1003hrs ... Thread01Post02
1004hrs ... Thread01Post03
1005hrs ... Thread01Post04

If based on time, the 5 posts that should get displayed are
Thread01Post04
Thread01Post03
Thread01Post02
Thread09Post01

but this ISNT the case ... i get the following instead
Thread01Post04
Thread09Post01
Thread10Post01
Thread02Post01
Thread03Post03

any advice?

Doesnt works pretty fine for me.
It does the linking false. Its displaying
the Lastest Threads / posts but its linking
them like this --> http://www.vbulletin.org/vbulletin/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=228
instead of:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=228

Would be nice if you would tell me how to fix that of course ill also mark is as installed than

Is it possible to add how many replies and thread views attached to that post in a column

I should add this works just fine with vb3.8.4 so those who are having problems its either your setup or you simply did something wrong.

Would you like to enable the auto location?
If set to no then must add $latest manually

This should seemingly read "$platest" - that took a little head scratching to work out!

Yea, this was based on my latest thread product, and forgot to adjust that phrase.

Thanks for this product
Is there a way to duplicate this mod, to use it as a second alternative?
for example i wanna use it like blocks in my home site, but one for news and another for general threads

i hate vbadvanced, if it could do this would be great.
Thanks for any help

I notice it slows down the loading of forumhome a lot. (using VB 3.8)
Any ideas if that is fixable or what to do?

hmmm, why can't I get it to show $platest on the 3.8.7

Anyone else?

Edit...

Hmmm, now I just noticed this shows across the entire forum. Weird.

Edit...

Oh, it's suppose to do that. LOL. Been reading up on those other latest threads mods. They seem all similar but this one is different.
