I have a preference yes, but that's just a personal choice.

Each is one select query, the choice is really down to what you want, unread posts, or new posts. I cannot make the choice for you.

What is the "certain text combination" that this plug-in looks for, to insert the new text string? I ask because it's working fine in one skin, but not the other, and I'd like to fix the navbar on the second so it's compliant.

Paul M 02-06-2006 11:48 AM

It looks for "</strong><br />" (which is the end of the Welcome, xxxxxx. message).

mkdevo 02-07-2006 12:03 PM

unfortunately, i had to uninstall this. :( i loved it, and so did my users, but the db thread marking system made my forums really really really slow. :(

Paul M 02-07-2006 12:48 PM

Not much I can do about that, except recommend you move to a decent host - db thread marking should not slow your system.

How did you remove it? I also want to reomove it coz my navbar doent appear(in fire fox only, works fine in IE) if i add adsense code to header! My navbar dissapeared in FF. If you want to check please check in FF and the link is www.hornybollywood.com

Paul M 02-12-2006 01:42 PM

What has removing this got to do with adsense ?

Great hack, is there a way to have it phrased?

Paul M 04-02-2006 07:51 PM

Good question.

I'm not sure why this one never got done when I phrased most of my hacks. I'll pop it on the todo list. :)

Hell? 04-02-2006 08:00 PM

Thanks. Also, the postcount ignores the selective forum filter hack but the search result doesn't. Not really that big of a problem but might confuse some of my users.

Paul M 04-02-2006 08:11 PM

Well that's nothing I can do about the later problem, it's not possible to take into account the effects of other hacks.

Hell? 04-02-2006 08:25 PM

Ok, thanks anyway. Also, I edited the plugin to input the absolut path to the search.php to make it work with the vbadvanced portal as well, is there a better way to do this or it's the only way?

Paul M 04-02-2006 08:28 PM

I don't know as I don't have VBA, but it won't break anything doing that.

Hell? 04-02-2006 08:36 PM

Ok, thanks for all your help. And many thanks for that future phrased version :).

Doesn't work with vBDrupal
any suggestion?

KeesTalk 04-15-2006 06:22 PM

I know what download to PC means, but what does import it into vbulletin as a product mean? In other words, how do I do that? Am such a total ditz when it comes to stuff like this! :confused:

Sorry, I don't know much about Drupal.

KeesTalk 04-16-2006 03:29 AM

Do I execute the following as an SQL Query?:

<installcode>
- <![CDATA[ $hackid = 96522;
$install = 'https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid='.$h ackid;
echo '<center><img src="'.$install.'" hight="1" width="1" alt="Installing" /></center>';

]]>
</installcode>

Am not sure if that's what I execute. If so, do I remove the <installcode> and </installcode> or leave that in?

Paul M 04-16-2006 01:08 PM

You don't do anything with it, vb runs install code when you first install a product - and please don't post code from hacks without using code tags, otherwise unregistered users can see it.

Now what would be really nice is to have this also placed at the bottom of the threads. Once read, instead of clicking back to the top of the forum or sub-board, clicking straight to the unread posts search list again.

You could do this easily by editing the SHOWTHREAD template:

then alter the ACP setting to your preferred option (the default is 'no' (i.e. all unread posts).
"CLICKS INSTALL"

Great hack, thou i had to think about it for a while cause the instructions wernt very clear for someone who knows nothing about code
Maybe a screen shot would help non coders like me

Great job!

Note: This hack injects the result direct into the navbar template during page construction, thus avoiding the need for a template edit. This requires that a certain text combination exists in your template. This will be fine for most boards that use a navbar based on the vB default, but you should bear this in mind if you have a totally custom navbar.
I have a customized navbar. Can you tell me what to edit cause the plugin didn't do it for me.

I am normally okay with most hacks, been doing for 5 years, but do you think I can get this to show up? I have a a customized site also and I cannot get it to show up. I am using Automatic forum marking with DB, and have edited the href to my full forum path but still a no go, just will not show up in the user front end. Did I miss something, I read this thread in full, it took ages.

Nice feature, really would like it.

I too have a customized site. This hack didn't work for me until I added

"</strong><br />" to the end of the "Welcome, xxxxxx." message.

This is referenced in post #124.

Actually "<br />" was aready there so I replaced it with "<strong></strong><br />" and I was good to go.

Paul M 05-06-2006 03:34 PM

This is the appropiate line in the standard navbar ;

Code:

<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]">$vbphrase[welcome_x]</phrase></strong><br />
The bold bit being the important part, if that isn't there, this will fail to show.

I have run into a little problem with this plugin in firefox. Quite often when I click on the unread posts it gives me a "page not found" error. Hasn't happened in IE.

I installed it and it works perfectly.

I use ff too. You should check the link that it goes to. It shouldnt have an issue if you use ie or ff as the link is created by vb and has nothing to do with the browser ie. http://www.domain.com/search.php?do=getnew

good luck.
