Well, it has to be some kind of user error, but since I don't know on which piece, can you give me AdminCP access on your site and i'll check your code? Just PM me with a temporary username/pass and i'll see what I can do.

2c) setting the sorting of global threads (right now I have them set to the time of creation instead of lastpost)

Any idea as to when we might see the next version? I have it installed and it's working great, but need to exclude a few forums on my board.

Oops, I've had the exclude option for awhile now, but been pretty busy lately so haven't done the other things.

I have released a newer version with the option to exclude forums.

is there any way to set only 5 posts universal?

how come, when i create the global thread on the forum that should be only "someone" able to create the thread and everyone one else able to read and reply to that thread.. but once I do that, everyone can't read the thread either.. is there away to fix this? .. global thread is the thread that not everyone should be able to create.

I set the permission on the forum itself, but the thread can't be read even thought i set that usergroup able to read forum,thread,others,reply.,,etc.. still not working

thank you

Could you have so it doesn't showup if you set usergroup permissons to view thread and forum to NO.

Right now they can see the thread and highlight it to see the 1st post but if they click on it they will get access denied.

Great add on. However, any chance of adding the option to 'include' particular forums as against excluding particular ones.

I have over 120 forums (built up over 10 years) and only need the global threads in one or two other forums. Can there be an option to select the include or exclude option?

Great mod!!

Is it 3.6.4 compatible?

It was very simple as long as you're using the Separate Sticky/Normal threads hack. Just had to re-code your merge plugin and the Forum Display template.

If you want have the other hack installed and you want to make yours look like mine do the following:

Open ForumDisplay template
Find:

Code:

$threadbits_sticky

Replace with:

Code:

        $stickyglobalthreadbits

        $threadbits_sticky

        <else />

        $nostickyglobalthreadbits

In the Plugin (Merge Global Threadbits with Threadbits)
Replace the entire plugin with:

Code:

if ($vbulletin->options['gton'])

{

eval('$bolx3 = "' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY_Separate_global') . '";');



eval('$bolx4 = "' . fetch_template('FORUMDISPLAY_Separate') . '";'); 



$nostickyglobalthreadbits = "$bolx3".$globalthreadbits."$bolx4";



$stickyglobalthreadbits = "$bolx3".$globalthreadbits;

}

Add a phrase called: delim_global
With the following:

Code:

Universal Threads

Lastly, add a template called FORUMDISPLAY_Separate_global
With the following:

Code:

<tr><td class="thead" colspan="<if condition="$show['threadicons']">7<else />6</if>"><strong>$vbphrase[delim_global]</strong></td></tr>

This doesn't add the little globe image I have, if you want that, PM me.

I've Tried many times trying to mod the plugin part of your excellent mod but i'm unable to can you supply me with a premoded one?

Best Regards

Looks like a nice mod. I have a couple of questions before I install:

Can the global threads be deleted en masse without having to delete the same thread in each forum?

Also if someone replies to in a global thread does the same reply appear in the other forums?

Thank you randominity

Just one small problem.

Is there anyway to make this work with Thread Prefixes

Thank you for any help :)

Thank you sooooo much!!!! Just what I needed!!

sorry if this has already been mentioned, as they are global and may be a little more generalised over sticky threads, would they not be better placed above stickies and not below?

i've always wanted a system like this, looks good :up:

This would be a very very useful plug for me, however I have 500 forums and since I would only use it to post threads in my 6-8 leader forums, trying to list every forum to exclude would be a nightmare. Also would be better if you weren't redirected to the original forum. If the forum is private and the concept is to have a discussion among all the leaders in forums they all cant cross over into normally, this wouldnt work.

Works a charm and dont have to modify a thing! Thanks.

Thats when you edit the php, make it size 45pt and bold and make it blink. Then they will read ;)

GRRR Sorry, been _real_ busy lately, but I promise I haven't forgotten about this mod! Maybe an update soon if I'm lucky!

RvG2	08-08-2007 10:41 AM

this is another mod missed by vbulletin ;)

works on 3.6.7 pl1

08-14-2007 02:57 PM

What a great idea this is...

The ability to include forums would be fantastic for our forum... excluding 150+ forums is a bit much. :) Looking forward to the update!

As it stands now, is exclusion available on a per-thread basis, or do the same exclusions apply to all the global threads? Our global threads would be of interest to 5-10 forums, but a different 5-10 forums each time.

This is exactly what I was looking for, but it doesn't appear to work in 3.6.5. Can it be updated to work with 3.6.5 or even better, the latest version 3.6.8.

Thanks!

This is a Great Mod! I really need it. Haven't tested it with 3.6.8 yet. First want to make sure if it does work with it. An upgrade would be wonderful :)

Edit the phrase $vbphrase[gt_global] from "Global:" to whatever you want. You can add html code to style it as well.

I followed your instructions step-by-step and the Global Announcements are not separating correctly. I have tried to fix this and make it so the table that separates global threads and normal sticky threads shows up but it's not working:

SBlueman

02-23-2008 05:56 AM

Another great feature would be if you could mark which thread(s) you want to have as Global Threads.

03-08-2008 07:09 AM

Um...anyone have any ideas on how I can fix the issues I am having?
