Dont understand what is that. its a mod? a DB modification?

Having investigated another forum having problems I came across the same common problem as a number of others Ive looked at.

The unread posts portion of this modification attaches itself to a phrase in the Navbar template that is only found in vb 3.7 - if you have a customised navbar that is based on pre 3.7 code then this will not display the unread posts.

Since this is the cause of a number of reports in this thread Im going to look at modifying it slightly to try and detect if you using pre 3.7 code and adjust itself acordingly.

I just wanted to say Thank you for all your help :) The mod is awesome and the support I received from you is greatly appreciated :)

Hi Paul!

I'm using a "Blue Evolution" theme and trying to use your mod, but even installation seems to be ok in whole 100% I don't have any effects. I knew, you wrote:

But what can I do to make it working and change this:

into something you wrote?

Appreciate your future help!

Since I dont have a copy of the Blue Evolution style I cannot tell you much. The mod attaches itself to the welcome_x or welcome_x_link_y phrases.

strange, because I have in my navbar template:
so what to do next?

Check that you are using database marking, and all the mod settings are correct - after that you would need to start looking at things like another mod breaking it.

As with any of my mods, if you PM me admin access I will look for you when I have the time.

Thx :)

Would you mind to write sth more about "database thread marking system"? Is is a vB admin option and where can I find it to turn it on?

It's probably noobish question but I really don't know.

Thanks, I change that and worked 100%.... you are grate.. mark as install
ed

same as me!
Thx Paul!

Paul,

This will not work when using the Time Greeting (Good Morning,etc..) mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=178745).

Correct, that mod overwrites the welcome_x_link_y phrase.

JFYI, If you altered the plugin execution order on the two mods you might still be able to get it to work.

you might as well have spoken that in greek...lol

It is truly sad to see no more development on this mod it was and still is a great mod.

Huh ?

How do you do that?

Thanks for the update Paul but since installing this new version I find that it doesn't work when using this hack, yet did so fine before this new release version, sorry..:(

I take it that by new version you mean the 3.7 version because this could never have worked with that mod installed - the reason being that Boofo appears to completely remove the welcome_x_link_y phrase from the navbar.

Edit: Actually, there is a post on how to modify one of my plugins here ;

Edit them in the Plugin Manager.

Thanks Paul that link to fix got it going again along with Boofo's hack, thank you..:)

Just updated. Working flawlessly.

Love your work. Thanks..

Thank you so much ;)

This cannot invent reputation.

My bad, I figured it out. :o

I installed this on 3.7 but it is not showing up at all, any ideas?

EDIT: NM, just takes a while.

Have you read all the notes in the main post.

Odd. After removing the old 3.6 version and installing this new version, I'm getting database errors sent to my email account. Apparently some users have having problems viewing the forum and others (like myself) have no issues. Here's the email message:

I've disabled showing new Reputation comments for now. Don't know if that will work or not. I'm still troubleshooting.

After turning on the rep system and having the Display New Reputation Comments set to Yes, I still have members having this issue.

Thanks Paul!

it commendable to install this at big forums?
My data base is very heavy this does that she be heavier or it goes away cleaning the table periodically?

Sorry my English...

This is one of the most valuable mods to have installed, IMO.

It really keeps the folks up to speed on what is going on in multiple threads. Thanks Paul! :D

Uninstall it, and then re-install it. You are missing some values in a column.

JFYI, that column should never be missing data, but this isnt the first case, so I'm going to edit the code slightly to stop the error when that data is missing.

How big do you mean ? This adds a column to the user table, and in index to the post table - thats the only difference it will make to your database.

Thanks Paul,
I have around 40.000 members.
This column is autoprune or I have to empty it manually like the column of cookies?

Regards!! : )

I dont really understand your question, but you dont have to do anything.

OK, thanks Paul!!

Edit: Nevermind - I figured it out.

Paul I really like this, and have it installed on my business site. However, on my other site, TalkOhio, I can't get it to work. I'm thinking that it's because I have Boofo's modification installed, and perhaps it's conflicting?
