In 4.0.5 try just using the original forumdisplay.php without any edits at all.

When I do this it also gives the cookie error.

I've never tried making a widget before but I'd imagine there has to be a "recent threads" widget that would do basically the same thing, no?

I just verified 4.0.5 and if you use the original forumdisplay.php with no edits it should work fine. My guess is you "undid" the edits instead of used the original forumdisplay.php without any edits.

You can get it from your original vbulletin zip file or worst case you can download a new copy from the member's area.

Sometime text editors (like notepad) can mess up the files you try to edit with them.

That's my guess as to why you get the cookie error- it's usually the result of a blank line or other blank character at the top of the file.

I discovered the error was because of the template edit option. Disabling the option and manually editing the templates worked. Now the product works as desired. Thanks and 5 stars :)

I don't really understand the question. This mod will in no way ever be able to help you see forums on another totally different forum.

Try the vBNetwork mod to share forums with a friend.

Hi,

have installed that great MOD :) Thanks for this..

But a question..

I created a Master Forum that holds some of my other Forums. So all is fine.. :)

Masterforum
-offtopic
-new Members

so the posts of offtopic and new members are displayed in the masterforum

when i go now to off topic and create a new thread... or answer to an existing thread..

and go now to the Forumdisplay where all my forums are displayed.. ^^ i see not in the Masterforum that there are new threads in offtopic... i see this when i go IN the Masterofurm. But i want to see it also in the forum display..

do you know what i mean?

It would also be great if the Masterforum displays in the forumdisplay the number of threads and posts from all the forums it holds.

And th next question i have.. it is not possible to post new threads in a Master Forum...
Of course i can post a thread.. but it is not visible in the threaddisplay...

I understand what you mean but I do not intend to add any of these features. It works how I intended it to work.

I suppose anything is possible, it would mean new queries on forumdisplay. It's not something I will do though- you would have to find someone else willing to code it that way.

I;d like to see this mod in action. please post/pm me a link where I could see this.

BirdOPrey5

08-10-2011 03:34 PM

I have the 3.8 version in action on my forum, but you need to register to see it in action-

Specifically it's my "off topic" forum which is my master-forum:
http://www.juot.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=2

I also added a custom image to distinguish each forum from the main off-topic forum, instead of the text saying the source forum name.

If anyone else is using the 4.x version and wants to post a link, feel free.

Great mod, however i've noticed that when viewing my forum with a program such as Forum Runner or Tapatalk that the master forums do not show threads from the slave forums.

Are there any modifications i could do on my side to get this working in app? or is that all up to the app developer.

BirdOPrey5

08-17-2011 09:40 PM

It would require modification of their files- so it's not something I'm going to attempt. I really don't know where to start with either of them.

Is this supposed to show the total number of threads and posts on Forumhome since for me it is only showing 1 Thread and 1 Post, this is the 1 thread I created in there to make it all work.

Cheers

BirdOPrey5

08-18-2011 11:20 AM

no, it doesn't affect forumhome.

Ahh, it is deceiving though when members see there is only 1 thread and 1 post in the Master Forum, until you click in there and see the list. Would it not be a good idea to have it calculate the total threads and posts in the entire Master or maybe remove the number of threads and posts from the Master Forum altogether?

Cheers for the Mod

This has been discussed a number of times and I can understand why people would want this but the fact is it would be a far more complicated and resource intensive mod to do those extra calculations. It's not something I plan on adding.

Probably an incompatibility with a custom style...

If you still have it installed simply turn off the automatic template edit in the settings: Enable Threadbit Template Edit -> No.

That will fix your issue- you will have to make the template edit manually if you want to see the name of the source forums.

This mod doesn't make ANY changes to the database or your files... Just disable or uninstall the entire mod then.

BTW what version of vBulletin are you using?

Hello,

I tried installing it and do as I should in the editing but when I enable it and open the master forum I get database error, I'm using vb 4.1.5, so is their a solution?

BirdOPrey5

09-12-2011 06:29 PM

I have this running on a 4.1.5 forum without issue. If you are getting a database error it is most likely because of a mistake when making the file edit. If you post the exact database error I might be better able to diagnose the problem.

This is the most important modification on my site. I always make sure this mod is working first after upgrades.

Hey BOP,

I was looking for a way to do this for my product site and found your mod. I was sort of confused by the code so I ended up writing my own plugins, but seeing as this mod came from 3.x, the code might just be a little out of date. Anyway, below is how I did it. It requires three plugins and does not need a post in the master forum; it also displays the post counts correctly etc.

hook: forumdisplay_start

PHP Code:


		
			
if (in_array($foruminfo['forumid'], $masterForums)) {
    // *Tell* the forum it will contain threads! >=)
    $foruminfo['cancontainthreads'] = true;
}

hook: forumdisplay_query_threadscount

PHP Code:


		
			

if (in_array($foruminfo['forumid'], $masterForums)) {
    $childForums = implode(', ', $foruminfo['childlist']);

    // Add an OR IN(children) condition and the default thread count query ones.
    $hook_query_where .= "OR forumid IN($childForums)
        AND sticky = 0
        $prefix_filter
        $visiblethreads
        $globalignore
        $limitothers
        $datecut";
}

hook: forumdisplay_query_threadid

PHP Code:


		
			
if (in_array($foruminfo['forumid'], $masterForums)) {
    $childForums = implode(', ', $foruminfo['childlist']);

    // Same deal for the thread id query.
    $hook_query_where .= "OR forumid IN($childForums)
        AND sticky = 0
        $prefix_filter
        $visiblethreads
        $globalignore
        $limitothers
        $datecut";
}

Here it is in action. Hope you found this useful!

I apreciate Lancer's code and I understand your desire for an All Topic mod for XenForo Octavius, but please keep discussion of XenForo mods on XenForo's or Lancer's own forum thanks.

This thread is for discussion of this vBulletin modification.

I would have to look into it- it would be a pretty significant change.
