It will try again. It actually deletes any existing index and re-adds a new one.

To prevent it you will need to edit the xml and remove these lines ;

Cheers Paul. Will give it a go and let you know how I go. Keep up the good work :)

Worked well when forum was offline. 425 secs to Alter the posts table :)

Imported the new Modified XML file and it worked like a dream.

Cheers.

Only thing I've found with this on my test board is that if doing a getnew or getdaily search, if the search returns no results, the hack doesn't appear. It's fine if there ARE results though.

Yes - I blame vB for that ;) - the variables values are not carried over into the error page, I expect a global statement in the right place would cure it.

Thanks Paul.

You mentioned in the original post being able to switch off the new posts bit and just have the rep...I'd quite like to do this as, certainly on my main board (which is still on 3.0.10 while I work on a test board for upgrading), I have always found the new posts thing a bit too intensive on the server.

However, I'm still new to the whole plugin thing, where do I turn that bit off, or would I need to edit the code out of the XML file and re-import it?

In the plugin manager, just untick the "active" box for the relevant plugin and click save.

great mod, makes it much easier to keep tabs on what has happened without looking at the dates/times of all the threads(and still miss some)

thanks just what i have been looking for cheers

I would like to see a modification where that message shows up only if they HAVE rec;'d new reputation - if nothing new has been given, then no message would appear.
