ya for some reason i am stuck to the old one too

ya i know u owe me one lol

if you open the actual plugin with a text editor (i use notepad2) press CTRL+F and search for this text :

you can now replace this with what you wish it to say, then press save and import the product again, remember to select overwrite :-)

Does version 1.2 work for vb 3.7?

If a user has to view more then one thread, which one to do first.

No way to do that request though.

Not currently.

I dont want to force a template eidt but will look into it.

No.

This did, sorry for my late reaction, didnt know it was moved to the ACP :erm:

Thx m8!

Seems to work fine ... :D

alright kool i will try that.thnx abe

thnx.. needed something like this..

I've just updated to 3.6.10

and after i fill out the form and click save, it says its done, and the puts me back to the origional page but it doesnt show up in there, so its like its disregarding what i've previously entered.

Any ideas?


Great hack btw :)

Are you just putting in the threadID or the whole URL?

Just the Topid ID for example

http://www.url.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=118#post118

I'm just putting 118?

That is a postID. You need to get the threadID would be t=XXXX

Thanks, Bit of a thick moment then

Installed last night and works better than the other two hacks installed.

Fish

How can you cancel the forced viewing on a thread ??

Delete it in the ACP options or change the end date back.

thanks :)

JUst tried that - but got this error ..

i really love love this mod! thanks a lot

I have no problems and i have vb3.7.0 rc4. This error can only be in the forum anyways. Not in the ACP.

This hack is great but it is forcing some mebers to read the thread over and over again.
I thought that once they read the thread they were done.
These guys have to re read the threads every time they go to a new forum..

Are they guests?

yo i have had this installed for a long time now and i like it

but i would like to know one simple thing

i want to disable more then what the product already dose such as images and so on.

so i need the condition for the if tag in html you know see like this:

<if condition="What Goes Here????????">
see nothing <br /> basicaly
<else />
if they already read it then they will see this
</if>

so ya can i get what goes after <if condition"

Please and thanks

**bump**

I'll be honest. I don't really know what your asking.

you got to be kidding my

you know what a <if condition="
tag dose in a template right??

you know something like

<if condition="ExampleNewPost">
click here to see your new posts
<else />
there are no new posts
</if>


Something like that but for this mod

i want to do the same type of thing just have things seen or hidden depending on if the person already read the tread

cant be too hard to understand

Now this is a nice one. Thanks man, working like a charm on 3.6.8 :)

Firstly, rude tone not appreciated. Your first explanation was hard to understand without an example (given in your second post). Remember that we are here to try and help, so being nice gets you a lot further than insults.

I believe you're asking for something outside of the scope of this modification. Perhaps a few more examples of what you'd like it to accomplish would help us understand what you're getting at.

As it stands now, you choose the areas the person can view without being forced to read the thread. If they enter an area (or forum) of your choosing, they will be forced to read the thread to continue.

If I'm understanding it correctly, you want people to be able to access certain areas, but sections of templates will be hidden until they read the thread (i.e. they can enter their PM box, but not be able to view PM content until they read a thread)?

Depending on your implementation, it simply might be better to force people to read the thread upon entering the PM area (in the example above) instead of trying to get fancy by allowing limited access.

So is he trying to see if you can block access to certain content until a thread is read, instead of blocking the whole site until a thread is read?

I believe so.

superb hack thanks very much i love it.

This is a great idea for a mod, thank you! Unfortunately I'm running into the problem where people are being forced to read a thread even though they've already read it. Where is the option to show people this notice only once?

Sorry, I haven't seen if it is possible to 'fix' this... if a member is in the middle of submitting a new post when you mark a thread as a Forced Read one, if they preview their post it will force them to read the thread.

To go along with that, if someone Submits a new post at that time, they are forced to read the thread and their post is not actually submitted.

I preferred the "areas" instead of forums (i.e. UserCP, Index, etc).

You can globally turn it off for the newreply and newthread pages.

I dont have a clue.

Are they guest or regular users?

Aha, thanks very much!

can the user be made to view two threads, one after another?

v nice hack v helpful
