Display the avatar of the thread instead of the attachment? I didn't know threads had avatars, I'll check it out.

Thanks for replying jasonmerchant ;)

Actually this hack will retrieve the image of the attachment and show up as a thumbnail, but because I did not allow members to upload attacments, it would be great if this can retrieve the avatar of the 1st poster and put it up as a thumb.

I think there was such an hack in VB3, to be able to toggle between selecting the attachment or avatar to display, but I can't find it.

how can this work with 'new posts' ?

Ok, I'm having 2 issues with this.

1) It's showing 'no thumbnail' on moved posts, can you remove that? On the thumbnail hack for 3.0.x it didn't do this.

2) It's working great in a few of the forums and in a few of the other forums most of the threads are showing 'no thumbnail'....I can't understand why it's working great in a few but not in others...I've doublechecked the forum array ids...

ok, quick update I believe I know why it's doing that....this hack is getting confused when there are uploaded pics AND files.

In threads where there are just pics it works perfect...

Could you fix this? Thanks man, this is one of the most important hacks on my board.

thanks man :)

Awesome thanks!

Can something be added or changed so the thumbnail size it displays is smaller than the actual thumbnail size in the thread itself? I run a gaming forum where people are constantly uploading new creations for download. We have the thumbnails set to 300 to give people a clearer view of what said item is however having it set at 300 on the forum display is a bit large.

Anyone use this for vb 3.5.2?

I just download it today 1/17/06 and I still have the problem discussed previously, which the specific forum only shown the "no_image" thumbnail.

Thanks!

how can i enable this option for only certain forum not all of them ?
