Awesome, removing the bit in red works! When I move it to anywhere in the forum it still keeps the content.

And no I don't move them to the same specific area, it can vary.

But thanks for helping me fix it. :)

Thanks for releasing this Lynne, its just what I've been looking for.

One question though, is it possible and if so how would I to it to only get it to show the text to signed in members. I've been trying to figure out how to do it myself but getting nowhere, as while its a user friendly feature, I don't want search engines to be able to see it as I don't want duplicated content listed in the search engines.

Just add a condition to the plugin to only do it if the user is logged in - you can probably use the $show['member'] variable for that.

Thanks that works perfect.

This looks like a great mod - however, wouldn't this count against your SEO by having duplicate content?

Tagged for further investigation when it isn't 00:40! ;)

According to mattysheff, yes, which is why he asked the question and I told him to put the condition around it.

I've added this to the first bit:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND $show['member'] AND $this->thread['forumid'] == $this->registry->options['vbcmsforumid'] AND $this->post['postcount'] == 1)

It works perfect and only shows the content to members. I'm not currently using it though because I've got comment threads hidden because of the bug in vbulletin where if you future publish a article the comment thread is created immediately.

Hi Lynne and thanks for the mod but what exactly do you mean by -

The ability to reply is removed??

No. This mod only effect the post text, nothing else.

Installed, works great thank you Lynne! This should be default in vbulletin.
