I'm expecting this will be done (for 3.7) next weekend (12th/13th).

You can't without altering the code.

Any plans for releasing the 3.7 version? :)

Paul M

Yes, as soon as I get time. This weekend turned out to be very busy, so I didn't get chance.

lmao. Same here. My users loved this hack with 3.6, and now that we've upgraded to 3.7, they want their unread posts link! :D

We are all patiently waiting, Paul M. :o I plan to be the first user to download it when it's ready. :D

ssvp	01-19-2008 06:30 AM

At this point I'm ready to paypal a donation to ensure Paul's schedule is free this weekend..:)

Paul M

01-20-2008 12:38 PM

Donations are always welcome. :)

JFYI, I am currently doing the final testing of this on my 3.7 test forum.

Zagis

01-20-2008 12:58 PM

Thanks Paul.

I'm going now to calm down my members because they asked me to ban my self if they don't have it until Sunday night. :)

Please help me. My site is www.alamedacountymom.com and I have installed this add on but I get an Error 404 message when I click on the link to go to the unread threads. What can I do to fix this? :confused:

Paul M

01-20-2008 03:56 PM

You probably need to set the Links Prefix Path in the mods settings.

I did do that I put it for /http://alamedacountymom.com/forums/index.php/ that is the link to my forums. Is that what you mean because that did not work. Any other suggestions?

Christinichka

01-21-2008 02:09 AM

Okay I think I figured it out. It should have just been /forums/ as my forum path instead of that whole thing. Thanks!

Mine doesn't show anything about reputation. Does that only show up if there is a new reputation? Like, it doesn't say something like "There are no new reputation comments" if there's no new ones? It's just blank?

droid101

01-23-2008 03:30 AM

I noticed someone else posted in this thread about the same thing... and they said they had to add custom code for that.

Does someone have that code, or can help me out? Thanks!

Thats correct, only the original 3.0 version had that no reputation message.

I'm excited to hear that a 3.7 version is in testing. Thanks Paul!

Paul M

It was released last weekend. :)

Damn I didn't know the 3.7 version was out yet because I thought someone would post a link to it. Here it is:

Argh... any tips for me to edit the code to get it back in there?

I'm having trouble finding where to make additions.

Hi Paull does this modification use any queries ?

Paul M

01-25-2008 11:44 AM

Of course. It would be a bit hard to get the data otherwise. :D

Was this ever tested? If so, where would that edit be made? The code below doesn't seem to be in the add-on. Is it one of the core vB files?

i think all that needs to be done is adding a conditional to the query which checks $xfperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canviewothers']

Like following:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (!($xfperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canviewothers']))

{

    $xpostuserid_list = "AND thread.postuserid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . " AND " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . " <> 0";

}

else

{

    $xpostuserid_list = '';

}

and adding $xpostuserid_list as a variable conditional for within the WHERE clause of the query

Paul M

01-29-2008 09:57 PM

It was never tested by me. This does not check that specific permission.

Thanks. I found that post earlier in the thread, around page 22 I think.

I was hoping that someone might have tested it or found a way to remedy the issue.

I have a couple areas where my users can post threads and see the forum, but they cannot see threads others create.
Thus, their unread post count is incorrect at times when others make posts in that area.

I've had a number of them say "my unread post count shows 3 posts, but when I click on the link it says there are none."

I don't know enough about vB or your add-on to see if I can resolve it myself.

It isn't a huge issue, but one that has been brought to my attention more then once. My users think they are missing posts or that the forum is somehow messed up.

Anyways... thanks for all the great add-ons you have coded. They really do add nice touches to a forum.

Paul M

01-30-2008 04:16 PM

Hmm, I dont have any such forums, so its never been an issue.

Off the top of my head, I dont see any reason not to add a check for that permission. I'll look into it.

Can you help me please. I have this installed and is working great. I need to omit from the unread posts certain forums, I cannot find where to do this. I am aware of the code i need to amend, but fail to find where?? I have tried in the navbar template but cannot find, I search for do=getnew so I can edit but it only finds the other nav bar link for that.
Help!!

Paul M

There is no facility in this to exclude certain forums.
