trancetopia & GoNz00 (and anyone else).

It will work on any 3.5 version, however, did you read all the smallprint ?

1. Are you using a custom style (specifically the navbar template) ?

2. Are you using the database based thread marking system - if not then it won't work.

Hi Paul, thanks for getting back.

Ahhhh, i'm not using the databased thread marking system so there is my problem. Going to switch it over and give it a try.

Many thanks.

Sweet it's working now. Great mod.

thanks it works now :)

for those wondering where to look

admin cp / vBulletin Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type > set to database

I've highlighted the requirement in bold to make it slightly more obvious.

This hack adds a line under the "Welcome, user" line in the right edge of the navbar. This might not be noticed by some people, especially those already used to using the "New Posts" link (between Calendar and Search). I'm thinking this might be better if, instead of the new line, if the existing "New Posts" link was changed to either say, "X New Posts" (X is the number), or "No New Posts". What do you think?
