I installed this on 2.3 #3 and could not get it to work.
I entered the code line for line, checked and double checked.
While I get no errors, I do not get anything on the mouse over.

I installed the 'tpinstall.php' is the forums/admin directory. Perhaps that was the problem. The install doesnt specify, unless I over looked it. Any suggestions, help and or tips?

Looking forward to proper operation!

EDIT:

After picking at it a little more, I noticed that it would NOT show posts which existed BEFORE installing this hack, however it DOES show the preview on NEW posts. Guess thats all that matters, or am I incorrect in assuming it would show prior posts?

are you sure you ran tpinstall.php?

In VB 2.3.0, whenever I try to run tpinstall.php I get a mysql 1060 error after I try to go to step 2

Hi N!ck, is there a way to integrate this hack in the online.php for the Threads the users read (vB3 Style)?

Thanks in advance
Kars

How do i un install this totally?

when trying to run the tpinstall.php i get this error:

----------------
Database error in vBulletin 2.3.0:

Invalid SQL: ALTER TABLE thread ADD firstpostid INT(10) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL
mysql error: Duplicate column name 'firstpostid'

mysql error number: 1060

any ideas?

Is there any way to increase the number of characters shown and to display line breaks?

any reason why it stops responding during step 2?

Installed great and is running perfect here (2.2.9), but I ran into a problem with vBMyIndex shortly after. Somehow, it's preventing the News (and the add-on PotD I built) from showing anything posted since Thread Preview was installed. As much as I hate vBPortal, I must admit it is probably the same problem that dotagious ran into a couple pages back with his setup.

I'll poke around some and see what I can find in there... any one else had any luck with this issue?

Cool, found and fixed. As dotagious had narrowed down earlier it is in newthread.php. When you're adding in the sections in there, instead of replacing the whole area, just add the small query to the bottom. The original query is still the same... I. E....

^^^^ Keep this, with whatever modifications you have done to make your portal software work.

Instead, just add this additional part (from Thread Preview) below it...
I don't have vB Portal installed to test it, but I am pretty sure this would fix the problem with that as well since they are built simillar at this point.
