That hack is only for Admins. We need something for the original poster, as they are the ones who want to do the bumping of the posts.

thats a very nice idea.

i'm eagerly awaiting this for our subforum marketplace where users are allowed to bump their thread. but this can increase rapidly the posting counter.

Features i would want:

bump button setting per forum yes/no

bump only for threadstarter depending on time last post in thread (not only the threadstarter)

setting for max bump per thread

maybe a bumpcounter displayed in the first post.

ok from the wishes to the realization.

i cant imagine the dificulty of this hack, but i found that many of this things are used in other hacks, so the art is to throw them together.
