I too would very much like this feature. Thanks in advance! :)

Any idea?[/s]

Never Mind

I doubt others care, but is there a way to make it so that the next post id for the auto increment doesn't increase when a double post is made? For example, if the post id is currently at 10, and I just made a double post, the next post id will be 13 whereas I would prefer the next post id to be 11. So would it be possible so the post id only increases when a "real" post is made instead of it increasing when the post is added onto a previous post?

I have no idea what you mean.

For example, in phpmyadmin you have a post table that contains all your posts that were made on your forum. If you have a total of 3 posts in your post table, your newest post would have a post id of 3, and the next post coming up would have a post id of 4 which is based on the auto increment value.

With this module, when you make a double post, it also increases your auto increment value. So if I make a double post, the post id will be 4, but the post after that would be 6 instead of 5.

The table might look like this:
postid | post
1 | first post
2 | second post
3 | third post
4 | fourth post + another post (double post)
6 | fifth post
7... and so on

Without increasing the auto increment value each time a post is added to a previous post:
1 | first post
2 | second post
3 | third post
4 | fourth post + another post (double post)
5 | fifth post
6... and so on

If you manage to do something like a triple, or quad post, it could look even worse:
1 | first post
2 | second post
3 | third post
4 | fourth post + another post + post + post
8 | fifth post
9... and so on

It's really something minor, and I doubt anyone else would care but I think it keeps the table looking more neat. I'm probably extra picky. :p

Those values are completely irrelevant, they are just internal to vb.

It will always jump one as thats inherrent in the way it works.

Well, not completely irrelevant as it's the post id found for example here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2017571
I'm a little obsessive about things such as that. :p

But no problem, thanks for the explanation. :cool:

It is irrelevant - vb does not care if they are consecutive or completely random (as long as they are not the same). My forum is running on ids in the 34 million range, due to a crash years ago causing them to jump.

installed on 4.0.2. working perfectly.
thanks :)
