@Magnus
Could you please agree or disagree on this?
Would be awesome if you could do this :)

I'm not sure I'm 100% clear on what you're asking for, but from what it sounds like, it sounds like you want to read the entire thread a post at a time.

Honestly, this really isn't within the scope of this modification and I can't see this being popular enough to warrant the additional coding. Sorry.

Now we're getting somewhere! :)

Anyone else with this problem using the above (or similar) modification? We may be able to track this down..

Nope not all at a time, only post by post.
A button "Next post" and "last post" so I can go through one by one :)

hmmm...downloaded this hack, uploaded the files to their respective forum directories, imported the XML, went to AdminCP and set options as follows: Display Post = FirstPost, Update Views = YES, Exclusions = NULL (tried 0 as well), and Automatic Template update = YES.

Go into forum and plus/minus signs are there next to the threads, and on some threads when I click the +/- it expands and colapses perfectly, and on other threads I get a little spinning RED arrow, and still on other threads I get NADA?

Just checked in UserCP and get the same type of things...some work, some red circle, some NOTHING.

Using vB version 3.6.8 with default styles...:confused: Please help.

Thanks,

I'm willing to bet the Post Thank You hack is conflicting. Try setting that modification to disabled (no need to uninstall it). Let me know if that fixes it.

thx-mod is not conflicting, have it too :)

Magnus,
Thank your for responding. Exportforce is correct, disabling the TY hack did not fix the problem. But I do have more info for you to consider. We migrated our forum to vB from Snitz using the vB import tools. I got to wondering if somehow the posts that were migrated somehow got set to the same time stamp or something and your hack possibly could not tell which one was first. So, I went into the AdminCP and changed the Hack setting to "Last Post", and everything works fine!!! I set it to "First Unread Post" and again, works fine. But when I changed it back to "First Post", the intermitent working/non-working problem I described in my post above occurred again.

The good news: I can leave it on "Last Post" without confusing my users.
The bad news: There is still a Gremlin! :(

I hope this additional information helps you identify the problem as this is a terrific feature! :up:Thanks,
KF

Hrm.. that is very strange. Have you tried rebuilding your counters?

AdminCP > Maintenance > Update Counters

Try rebuilding anything having to do with threads/posts.

It's odd that, of all things, the default behaviour is the one acting up..

That did it! :up: Not sure which one :D...but I ran all of the counter/rebuild updates for threads, forums, and posts. The only issue now is dealing with the members being disappointed about their Post Count being reduced. yeah, I know I can hard plug them in, but they'll just get wiped out the next time I have to rebuild!

Magnus,
I know there have been alot of post regarding "First Post" vs "Last Post" which is why I am sure you put the option in the AdminCP, but I've got an idea about that. What if your hack provided for the + sign on the left to show the "First Post/First Unread", and then somehow get the little arrow icon in the "Last Post" field/box to the right side of the thread name to perform the EXACT same functionality, but show the "Last Post". This would allow the user to view BOTH before entering into the thread. vB is already showing the last post in that field, it just needs to somehow get thrown into your hack display table on click. Then you could simply provide a "GoTo" button if they wanted to go to the last post like is currently the case when you quick that little blue arrow.

Just a thought...is that possible?

I love the hack..donation is forthcoming...
