THis hack works 100 % - thanks for making it ... for the cookie thing - I have this in the first forced thread post ..

IF you get stuck in thread reading hell ( reading the same thread over and over ) allow cookies from ET .

wickedstangs 12-30-2008 09:29 PM

I installed and see everything, I even thread to open a new account and doesnt' force me to read anything:)

What are you talking about?

I allow cookies from my own forum and it sticks me in thread reading hell also. So it doesn't have anything to do with cookies on my end.

are you clicking back ?? to be stuck in thread reading hell ? Just because YOU can get it to work , does NOT mean that this does not work for the majority of people . Different hacks cause changes in the VB code and conflict ..

Works with 3.8.0 gold

boomer_ie 01-16-2009 04:15 AM

This mod is not working for me either on vb 3.8.0, instructions followed, not showing anything in edit tools nor does the add new thread through admincp work it reports saved successfully but does not actually save!

flup 01-19-2009 04:40 PM

Exactly what I need :)

rainyleaves 01-20-2009 01:53 PM

Frank Sinatra 01-22-2009 08:29 PM

thankss works perfect :p
installed :up:

SimpleFTA 01-23-2009 04:02 AM

Hi Abe, glad to see you're still supporting this mod.

This is a very useful hack, thanks. Is it possible to add an option to customize text instead of just using "The administrators want you to view a thread before you continue to browse the forum."?? If I could customize the message and edit font style this would be perfect mod for what I need.

-James

KelliH 01-24-2009 07:33 PM

Installed in vB 3.7.3 Patch Level 1

In "Threads and Posts" drop down menu in Admin cp there is no "Force Thread" link

However, I can access it by typing the url
mywebsite.net/admincp/force_read_thread.php

Any idea why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks.

Frank Sinatra 01-26-2009 09:59 AM

still working perfect here, but..
there's a way to make it work with vbadvanced? if i have my forum in other folder, the url is:
http://www.xxxx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3225
and vbadvanced show this:
http://www.xxxx.com/showthread.php?t=3225
geting error 404

thanks for any help :p

not working for 3.8 when saving setting.It doesn't save at all

davidan 01-31-2009 10:48 PM

Any chance this will get updated to work with 3.8.x? This is probably the most useful mod ever, and Miss it. The thing quit working when I upgraded to 3.8.0 and I had to remove it.

BlackJacket 02-05-2009 02:26 PM

Please get this working for 3.8.x

Much needed!

HossMon 02-05-2009 05:29 PM

Hey Abe could you read my post here plz
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=602

I'm running 3.6.9 and I think I may have found the issue...
Ok here's Query
Quote:

SELECT *
FROM thread AS thread
LEFT JOIN force_read_users AS force_read_users ON (thread.threadid = force_read_users.force_read_threadid AND force_read_users.force_read_userid = '1')
WHERE thread.force_read = '1' AND (thread.force_read_expire_date = '0' OR thread.force_read_expire_date > '1233786721') AND (force_read_usergroups = '' OR force_read_usergroups LIKE '%-6-%') AND (force_read_forums = '') AND force_read_users.force_read_userid IS NULL
ORDER BY force_read_order ASC
But then I notice this for the force_read_users table...

1 SIMPLE force_read_users eq_ref PRIMARY PRIMARY 8 const,bst_db.thread.threadid 1 Using where; Using index; Not exists

I believe that is what is driving MySQL nuts

Get Through Guides

2L8 02-17-2009 08:00 PM

works gread also on 3.8.1 thx installed

crouzmind 02-18-2009 05:16 PM

sir can i use this mod on VBULLETIN 3.8.1 ????

habanero68 02-22-2009 06:05 AM

please explain how I use it in 3.8.1. I am not working, needs to be done. please

mrtroybaker 03-05-2009 07:50 PM

Is there going to be an upgrade for Vbullite 3.8.x? I installed this version and everything works fine until after save. It says everyting saved but nothing shows up under "display order" Im guessing this is due to the different versions. Please help. This is one of the most useful hacks I have found.

HaS?R 03-11-2009 08:18 PM

Thanks.Looks Nice.

BlueNinjaGo 03-13-2009 07:13 PM

Installed and works great once you learn to use it correctly. Great job.

fr3akstar 03-20-2009 08:08 AM

I have installed this on 3.8.1 but I don't get the option and I can't see the option to enable/diable per usergroup, its enabled in the products/plugins menu. Do you have to do something else after install?

Raptor 03-20-2009 01:33 PM

yep works just fine on 3.8.1 PL1. If you are having problems then your board isn't right.

fr3akstar 03-20-2009 01:48 PM

Thats a useful post Raptor. The board is a virgin 3.8.1 install. Thanks for your input though... not.

Can we get a screen shot perhaps? Might help us get a better idea of the issue you're facing.

fr3akstar 03-20-2009 04:36 PM

Right it is working to an to an extent, the option does appear within the AdminCP to set a thread to Force Read. However I was under the impression that you also received an option within the Thread Tools for each thread. A friend is using version 1.1 of this mod and it works that way... Is that just not part of this mod anymore?

fr3akstar 03-20-2009 04:46 PM

I don't have any options within USergroups to enable or disable the ability to set a thread to force read either, but from the screenshots I'm beginning to think this mod doesn't offer these options...

creative-friend 03-24-2009 05:29 PM

Not working.....

BlueNinjaGo 03-24-2009 06:27 PM

From what is provided, and from what I experienced when using it, only admins can say which threads are forced read. No one else.

And you can only set it in the ACP, not in the thread...

fr3akstar 03-24-2009 07:08 PM

Ok well as I said I am a member of a site where they used the version 1.1 of this mod and it does have that capability which makes me wonder why this mod is now less capable than its predecessor.

creative-friend 03-25-2009 08:46 PM

wel i tired to do it but its no working...

fr3akstar 03-26-2009 03:08 AM

Its in the AdminCP at the bottom of the threads section like this:
