Compatibility: 3.7.х - 3.8.х

Features

realisation on ajax:

load and refresh through a defined time in settings hot threads

removal of the status of the hot threads in the loaded list

set and removal of the status of a hot thread in the menu "Options Thread" of each thread

no need to edit the file


How in work
In the menu "Options Thread" of each topic appears "Make a hot thread / Remove the status of hot (depending on status). Checking the threads in such a way, we form a list of hot threads. Further, this list will be rotated in a random order, in the quantities to what you specify in the settings (default 5). Posters displayed in each cell, are collected from the first post of the thread, the first image, from tag img (or your own). Then this image uploading to your server, for make a thumbnail, and write it in db as link of image to your server.
To see the current list of hot threads, simply click on the "List of Threads" in the header of the output window. When you load a list of topics, with the possibility (for groups 5,6,7) removal of the status of hot or at any of the topics on the list.

Install

Upload all files from folder upload to forum folder
Then change the attribute of folder hotimg on 777 (if it needed), for record thumbnails.
Edit template SHOWTHREAD. Find:<div><label for="ao_sut"><input type="radio" name="do" id="ao_sut" value="stick" /><if condition="$show['unstick']">$vbphrase[unstick_thread]<else />$vbphrase[stick_thread]</if></label></div>Add buttom:<div><label for="ao_sht"><input type="radio" name="do" id="ao_sht" value="hotthread" /><if condition="$thread['hotthread']">$vbphrase[unhot]<else />$vbphrase[dohot]</if></label></div>(strange why in this section no hook)

[elenh]

but looks like not working corect with the vba_index.They dont display the anything..

[saadessa]

[mad@Max]

For vba and another cms necessary add to setting cms variable $mdm_ht_box as global.

[eXoOutsider]

How is this on server load?

[TimberFloorAu]

ANy chance we can see this in english, and perhaps a demo ?

[PaylaX]

Kudos on taking the time to do this modification.

[Megatr0n]

[elenh]

With $...
Sorry ,without the "$" its works fine.

[Flowsion]

When I click 'hot thread' it just blanks.

[passwords]

cannot see the pic of the hot thread, how can i set a poster for a thread ?

[yahoooh]

should use hook
i do not prefer file edit

[jambo_1969]

Server Load ?

[mad@Max]

yahoooh, if you find a hook that can replace an entire class - let me know:)
jambo_1969, no:)

[Peter_Rosado]

any way to show the hot threads by order of the amount that the users have hot threaded it? Also, any way to make hot threads delete themselves every X days, for example I want to see new hot threads every 7 days.

[Peter_Rosado]

I forgot to mention that when I click on the hot thread list it doesn't do anything :(

fixed all known bugs

added: now you can use first attachment from first post in thread for image.

thanks to mad@max

ps:
if you want that width and height settings from hot threads options effects attachments images in hot threads, if it used,
edit template mdm_ht_bit:
<img title="$title" class="inlineimg"<if condition="$vboptions['mdm_ht_attach']"> style="max-width: $vboptions[mdm_ht_thumb_w]px; max-height: $vboptions[mdm_ht_thumb_h]px;"</if> src="$thumb" border="0" alt="$title" />

When i install this 2.6.1 version nothing display at forum home.
but version 2.4.2 can display everything

my forum is VB3.8.4
---------------------

if it possible to display last image attachment instead of first image?


If first image doesn't look good then admin have to delete all attachment and reupload inorder to display first images

if use last image
admin can change images or upload new image easier

[mad@Max]

Official update to v2.6.1 (changes in bold text).
vktechnology, just use /forum/misc.php?do=htupdt for update the cache.
Ichigo88, nothing is impossible, just a hack has a slightly different purpose :)
