Before image not needed you should know what a thread listing on forumdisplay.php looks like.
The after is attached. You can select from a big list of different post types so its not only just informative.

Nice ExtremeTim. :) I've added a font color for the threadbit because otherwise it looks if the thread type is part of the subject.

Why not add an admincp section to add different threadtypes? Easy enough to do and can be ordered nicely via a displayorder field :)

I didn't have time to make any method for the acp. Like i said I just sat down last night and was working on the changes for teh thread description hack and decided this would be a good idea. So I made this one at the same time.

You should listen to Misten - that's the only BIG thing your hack lacks.

Apply this fix to make sure your protected. I dont see this being a problem with this hack but I decided to add this in to be a little more on the safe side. It always better to be safe then sorry.
Open functions_newpost.php
Find:
// ### POST NEW THREAD ###
if ($type == 'thread')
{
Add Below:
$post['threadtype'] = htmlspecialchars_uni(fetch_censored_text($post['threadtype']));
I will update the two install files to have this new change in v1.0.1. The only change will be this security update.

Nice hack, but is there anyway I can set certain thread types for certain forums?
I'm installing. :)

Here is the problem: You filled well your new subject, the title, description, you choose your type of subject, you tape your subject... Now you make a previsualisation of your subject before sending... You contemplate previsualisation... then you send! There you will see only the title of your subject in the part where you have all the subjects of the forum... of aillor I do not know how one call this part.
Conclusion, I have the impression that it is necessary to avoid of prévisualiser the subject so that the hacks (those referred to above) function.
the problem is identical for these 2 hack "Thread Type v1.0.1" and "Thread Descriptions v1.0.1"

Pardon my ignorance, but what is HTL? Looks like serialized data...
