[RELEASE] Topper / Untopper

This is my first PUBLIC hack for VBB.

Please give me any comments about this hack...


This hack will place threads you choose on the top of the forum listings.

http://mycomp.virtualave.net/cgi-bin/files/topper.zip

Is there a demo somewhere? And do only Admin/Mods can do this or anybody? Please tell a bit more about it!

sorry, i don't have public server running with it

and yes, this function can only be done by Mods/Admins

I like the idea of the hack, will read zip file for instructions... but hope it is only admins/moderators who can set it!

Please explain what this hack is.

Or am I supposed to download your zip file to find out what it is?

This hack will make threads that you select always on the top of the forum. It doesn't matter how old post is, it will always be on the top of the forum until you untop it.

just a question, are you working with this hack on 1.1.3 beta 3 or 1.1.4 ?

i just tried this hack on 1.1.4 and it didn't work.. i kept getting a blank page when i clicked on the topper/untopper link..

any ideas ?

I need this for 1.1.4, i am allmost ready to just delete what i did for .4 and go back to .3 since most hacks seem to work for it better.

Please update this to 1.1.4

sorry, i wasn't around much lately

we moved and i don't have internet at home yet, i will make sure it works then i get internet

Please don't forget, I need this badly..

no u can wait for 2.0
then u try it ones again

I think 2.0 and and 1.1.4 are very simulair.... once they are relased, minus the DOZEN of new options. :D

If we wait for 2.0, then we are talking months...

1.1.5

step

@==========@ forumdisplay.php/php3
====>Find:
$threads=$DB_site->query("SELECT thread.iconid, icon.title AS icontitle, thread.poll as poll, icon.iconpath,threadid,thread.title AS title,
open,lastpost,replycount,postusername,lastposter,n otes,views,userindex
FROM thread
LEFT JOIN icon ON (icon.iconid = thread.iconid)
WHERE forumid=$forumid AND visible=1 $datecut
ORDER BY lastpost
DESC LIMIT $limitlower,$perpage");
====>Replace it with:

$threads=$DB_site->query("SELECT thread.iconid, icon.title AS icontitle, thread.poll as poll, icon.iconpath,threadid,thread.title AS title,
open,lastpost,replycount,postusername,lastposter,n otes,views,userindex
FROM thread
LEFT JOIN icon ON (icon.iconid = thread.iconid)
WHERE forumid=$forumid AND visible=1 $datecut
ORDER BY topped DESC,lastpost
DESC LIMIT $limitlower,$perpage");
====>

Just upgrad to 2.0 as it has this option called Sticky which does the same thing...

This doesnt seem to work with 1.1.4

I get all kinds of errors, and forumdiosplay.php does not load. Help please?

I'm having a problem with this. The topped threads seem to expire and are no longer shown. Is there a way to fix this?
