oops. i made a mistake.

oops. i made a mistake.

Who gets credit and why isn't my concern, since I had nothing to do with the mod itself. But, to say it didn't exist is ludicrous. Three sites, off the top of my head, which have had this hack for at least three months on 3.0.3 are:

• http://projectprotect.org/forum/
• http://www.sports-chat.com/forums/
• http://guysngals.net/forums/

There are more I know of, I'd just have to look them up. I am sure there are hundreds more which I've not found. The code for these and this one are amazingly similar.

For vB hacks & template mods, one must look beyond this forum alone. Just because they aren't listed on vB.org doesn't mean they don't exist.

And, to quote you from the topic header.......

who freaking cares, man?

i put the code out there for people on this site to download it.

edit:

i just went and re-read what the top says. it says "i never saw"... it never says that this never existed. :banana:

I can assure you that I will not look beyond this site for any hack I may release.

i agree. this is a much more reputable site.

Considering the process to finally merge vbulletin.org and vbulletintemplates.com is in the works, it probably doesn't matter, in the long run. Both sites are equally reputable, seeing as they are under the same ownership and the members are pretty much the same.

A lot of people seem to care. It was you who initially released this as your own and it was you who later, after you were called on the carpet, added a 'thanks to' on the mod post.

Many others found this template mod long before you called it yours. It appears you simply reworked the selection options on the navbar waterfall menu, something which has also been done many times before.

You put yourself in this situation. Considering you were trying to fabricate something else a few days ago to do this exact same thing and, just last week, you couldn't figure out how to adjust your own server time. Then I see a post from you asking what queries are and how to tell how many you might have. Posts like these, especially after having been here for only a couple of weeks, would lead many to believe you plagiarized the code to begin with.

The Active Topics templates mod had been discussed here before. It was removed by the author because it was a template mod - as such, it belonged on vbulletintemplates.com.

Every other time I've seen something like this, the poster made certain to point out that they took no credit for the mod, that they were simply reposting it and full credit belonged with someone else. None of this was done by you.

I can picture many, including myself, passing over your requests for assistance.

And yes, Christian - there is a way to keep members from seeing what page other members are on (a question posed by you in another thread with no replies). I thought about giving the answer, but I think I'll let someone else tell you how or maybe allow you to figure it out for yourself.

To return to the hack itself subject...is it working for 3.0.5 ? i guess yes, as it doesnt affect init.php, but i ask to be sure:)

Nice hack, dont really care who did it first..my thoughts its only how i can install it in my forum...If the mods allowed this post - thread to be done, its more than ok to me:)

My thanks then:)

You know I followed trevelyn1015's post when he asked for such a modification. And Amykhar provided a good answer. If trevelyn1015 is anything like me though, amy's coding was fine, but I didn't know where/how to modify. So he took some time to combine a great hack with a great code and now folks like me can put it to good use. I've been using the vbt hack for quite awhile and will change it to this one. Thank you waxed, sabret00the, amykhar and trevelyn1015 for all the work that went in to making this a hack for us dimwits LOL. Without all 4 of you, this would not be up. So does it really matter who started it?

And as far as other sites are concerned, this and vbt are the only 2 I trust and have found to offer great support over the last 2 years. I had another member name before a month ago, and got great help. Thank you all
