I realize that possibility and with this addition to the code, have the ability to take away the feature if it does become a problem, by removing the addition. :)

Could this be modified so that editing a post both bumps the topic and resets the thread to New so the New Replies forum marker lights up?

Do you realize this is an eight year old thread?

Yes, I did realize it was a very old topic and the chance of a response was unlikely. However, I've tried every search and every place I can think of trying to find a particular mod or find out if it is even possible. Posting out of desperation now. :(

My apologies if this caused issues or was against the guidelines.

I wish I had seen this before. Does the code by Chen still work?

No.

Thanks.

Not sure whether it's of any use but I requested a bump feature script from nick a few years ago that displays a bump link text on forum display by each thread and silently bumps the thread to the top and it also updates the lastpost data on forumhome when a thread is bumped.

I configured the script so that it's only possible to bump a thread by staff and admins but as default only the group with higher privelages and the threadstarter can bump the thread without going into the post. Bump thread Script. Again, I don't know whether you'll find a use from it.

My main reason for wanting edited threads to be bumped, is because they need to be reviewed by a moderator. Editing threads leaves rule breaches under the radar, because they do not turn up in new posts.

But your suggestion did make me check out your site, which is good.
