If you have "who is viewing the thread" activated I made a template modification that will "split" the table that contains the users currently viewing the thread in half and make it display the users that have viewed the thread in the last X days in the second column. This way it looks neater I think as if you have those 2 enabled it looks quite terrible :p

TEMPLATE MODIFICATION (do this instead of the one that's written in the companion txt, not both)

In SHOWTHREAD find:

HTML Code:

<td class="tcat" colspan="2">

                        <phrase 1="$totalonline" 2="$numberregistered" 3="$numberguest">$vbphrase[users_viewing_this_thread_x_y_z]

                </td>

</tr>

replace with:

HTML Code:

                <td class="tcat" colspan="2">

                        <phrase 1="$totalonline" 2="$numberregistered" 3="$numberguest">$vbphrase[users_viewing_this_thread_x_y_z]</phrase>

                </td>

                <if condition="$vboptions[threadmarking] AND $bbuserinfo[userid]">

                <td class="tcat" colspan="2" width="50%">

                                        <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('thread_readers')"><img id="collapseimg_thread_readers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_thread_readers].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>



                $trtitle</td>

                </if>

        </tr>

        <tbody id="collapseobj_thread_readers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_thread_readers]">

Find:

HTML Code:

<tr>

                <td class="alt1" colspan="2">

                        <span class="smallfont">$activeusers

                </td></tr>

Replace that with:

HTML Code:

<tr>

                <td class="alt1" colspan="2">

                        <span class="smallfont">$activeusers</span>

                </td>

                <if condition="$vboptions[threadmarking] AND $bbuserinfo[userid]">

                <td class="alt1" colspan="2">

                                <span class="smallfont">$treaders</span>

                        </td>

                </if>

        </tr>

        </tbody>

Please inform if this causes any bugs. I tested it in my site and it works well :)

I attach a screenshot too so that you can see what this is about :)

Depends when you downloaded it. Version 2.11 (released earlier in the week) uses phrases, the older 2.01 did not.

It collapses all the tbody, including the members who are currently viewing. That's what I wanted to do with mine in the first place and I posted it in case aomeone else needs it :)

I downloaded yesterday but just in case I re-downloaded now and took a look at the template modification.
NO phrases. :(

The template doesn't need any phrases, the text output is all worked out in the code. I think I know if it uses phrases or not, I did write it. :)

JFYI, it uses the following global phrases - member_has, members_have, no_members_have, no_names & read_this_thread.

Woops, you're right! Sorry!
Well most of the times one can tell by the template! :p

This is a simpler, but also nice alternative to the other Who Viewed Thread I used for my vB3.0.x , but this will do me for now.

Thanks, Paul. :)

Sadly not with this version - vB does not store that information in the table.

I have considered an upgrade that stores/displays this in the future, but that won't be for a long while, if ever.

Version 2.18 has been uploaded and adds the following;

* A setting in the ACP to turn the display on/off

* A setting in the ACP to restrict which usergroups can view the display.

* The date/time of the last post read by a member - just hover over their name.

Not quite sure if this is what you asked, but it now shows the timestamp of the last post in the thread, at the time the member last read it, so you can work out if they have seen a particular post or not.

is it possible to get some more detailed instructions on what/how to uninstall the old/original version. I installed this so long ago, I couldn't even begin to remember what to look for or where to look. :/

any tips would be greatly appreciated. great and practical hack. :) keep it up!!

11-13-2005 11:21 PM

do you have to redo the showthread template? or just import the xml? for this update.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

i figured it out just unistalled the old xml and and replaced with the update xml,works great thankyou

11-13-2005 11:38 PM

sorry..pre-question:

WHERE in the admincp do we find this? (the settings)

I hate when I have to spend 30 min just looking for something cause it buried in the vboptions menu or something. :/

FYI, only one line in the template has actually changed - the IF statement on first line (excluding the comment of course)

I'm seeing some strange behavior with this hack. It's actually strange behavior with the vb thread marking system rather than the hack, but the hack makes it visible.

If I mark all forums read via the menu link, and then go to a thread, my username never shows up at the bottom as having read the post within the past 30 days no matter how many times I refresh.

It seems that the thread marking requires the thread to be unread, you click on the thread which changes it to read, then bingo it saves that action.

Is everyone else seeing the same thing?

Yes, in this case you have not actually read the thread(s). The vb thread marking (as opposed to forum marking) requires you to actually visit the thread (not only that, you must view posts beyond where you previously viewed them).

ACP, you can select which usergroups can view this by ID.

vBulletion options-thread display options
toward the bottom, you make the selection. groups 2,5,6,7 are selected by default

All times are GMT. The time now is 04:45 AM.
