View Your Conversation
This mod puts a link "view your conversation with user ..." above received private messages to show all incoming private messages from this user.

1. In template pm_showpm replace
<if condition="$show['reportlink']">
with
<a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]searchuser=$pm[fromusername]"><phrase 1="$pm[fromusername]">$vbphrase[view_your_conversation_with_x]</phrase></a>
<if condition="$show['reportlink']">
2. Done :)

About this modification
It uses standard vbulletin phrase view_your_conversation_with_x from profile page. If there are enough installs, I will make an auto-template product out of this template modification.

This Template Modification is for vbulletin 3.8 templates. It is possible, that while you have vbulletin 3.8 installed, your template pm_showpm needs to be reverted to vbulletin 3.8 standard.

Yes is true thanks :)

[Spinball]

Doesn't work. I get There are no messages to display. Try a different search. even though there are messages in my inbox from the person.

[RedeemedWarrior]

isn't there something like this anyway in default vb?

Message history > View History

[mrtroybaker]

Works great. Thanks.

[sheppardzwc]

Great job, great idea, great mod. :)

[whitetigergrowl]

I think it would be a great idea to find a way to show the entire pm chat session. Similar to how some cell phone and cell phone companies do it. Where it shows all of your pm's from that person 'chat style'. Would be a great way to enhance this.

Message history > View History

View history shows the conversation about the actual topic with the other user. View Your PM Conversation shows all topics from incoming pms with the other user.

Re-usable Code: This code may be used in other modifications as long as the original author is credited. So if you want to do a product out of it, you're welcome :D

[alfaowner]

Yes is true thanks :)

Great easy mod, although I added "&nbsp;&nbsp" on the end of your code to give a small gap between the link and the report button :up:

[shinng]

easy and useful. also used the suggested made by alfaowner. installed

[Macgiber]

[dominiqueC]

[woffie]

Excellent Mod! Thanks!

[popowich]

Is there a way to make this work in the sent items folder too, or include those messages in the results when clicking the view conversation link from the inbox?

I dont have the line of code:
<if condition="$show['reportlink']">
