Doesn't seem to matter what I do I can't get it to show up in Firefox. :(

You're saying that the reply info only shows up for guests in certain browsers? Are you using linear mode consistantly? In this version, the info only shows on linear mode, and not hybrid or threaded mode (though this will not be the case when I release the plugin version for 3.5)

WetWired,

Thanks for your reply. The problem I was having was it would show up to guests but not to logged in users. I totally removed all the changes and redid it and it's working perfectly. :)

Thanks for doing this, its really really useful - clicks install.

Hi,

I'm new to these boards and I've been running a small private board that was formerly on CompuServe. My users are screeming for this information.

I'm not really sure about the term "hack." Sounds like I'd be required to open up a PHP file and insert code. I'll have a look at the files, but my real question is two fold:

1) Has this been tested in 3.6.2?

2) Does a hack need to be "re-hacked" every time vBull updates the application?

I'm very new to this, so please be easy on my. I'm reading "PHP for Dummies;" but at the moment I'm dummer than Bush :paranoid:.

As indicated in the opening post, there is a newer version at
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=93247
which is designed for 3.5 . That version does not require code insertion.

Noone has verified that that version works with 3.6, though it may; as simple as it is to add and remove the plugin version, it can't hurt to try (please post your results in that thread, either way).

Hi,

I installed (I think) the modification is discribed in the 3.5 version. There was no change to the display at all. I am new, and I'm not sure at all what "style" (postbit-legacy or just postbit). This change would be fantastic; but I'm not getting it to work.

While there are no manual code changes, you have to change the templates for the changes to become apparent.

You can edit the templates in "Styles & Templates"|"Style Manager". Click the <<>> button to open the list of templates. Double click "Postbit templates >>" from the list to see the postbit templates. The changes are pretty simple. You just need to search for the code snippets in the style and place the stuff above and below. The only complicated thing is that if you have horizontal postbits (the default), you need to edit the "POSTBIT" template using the stuff in the first section, while if you have vertical postbits (like here), you need to edit the "postbit_legacy" template using the stuff in the second section.

I pasted into Postbit the code for "horizontal" though just putting "Posted" above the if clause seemed a bit odd. I tried it with and without the word "Posted". With no joy. Today, I'll try it with BOTH styles changed, and get back to you with the result. I'd love to confirm your hack works in 3.6 and my users are going to kill me if I don't get something done soon. There is talk of going back to CompuServe.

If my next try fails, I will copy what I pasted into the styles to you and we'll see what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks for your help.

I'll be damned. We're on legacy and that code works okay.

I'll let the members +++++ about how this is not good enough, and I'll get back to ya with any 3.6 hicups I might find.

Thank you VERY much for writing this hack.
