thanks alot buddy

Works like a charm (as it did before!) once again I upgraded to 3.5.4

Thank you Sir Paul M :D

Could it be possible that this could be restricted to certain forums, so you could just add the forumid of the forums to use this?

I ask because I have certain areas, like tech support, announcements, and back end moderator areas where I want to know or my helpers need to know if someone has read a thread for admin /tech support reasons - but I dont want to use it out on the general boards because I think it might cause some issues. Mainly in some areas on my site, a member's feelings may be hurt if they see so and so read their thread but didnt respond, etc. So I want to use ot more for admin purposes..

Installed, cheers!

I have one nasty ex-member who siphons off posts from our forum and uses them selectively on his blog to attack us. He's banned, but he has some cronies, so at least I can now pin down where his info might be coming from!

Cool, thanks. I've been wanting to install something like this.

Thanks, I might install this..but a few suggestions...

Before when I was on phpbb we had a hack like this and it recorded every user who viewed a thread, but each time they viewed the thread it would bump their username back to the beginning of the list of names...this way you could tell when they re-viewed a thread...for example, maybe you made a post and u would really like to know if a certain person has read the thread since the last time, you would know they have because their username is back up towards the beginning.

The second feature that would be nice to have with this is for the list to be collapsable, if you have 5,000 people view a thread it's not gonna be very cool seeing a list of 5,000 usernames...it should only show to users if they select it from a collapsable thing or something.

I would actually pay to have these features added if that's possible..thanks.

Perhaps you should have actually installed it first - the list is already collapsable :cool: - Changing the display order of the names is achieved by changing the SQL WHERE clause to use dateline.

Feel free to send me your payment for the above ;)

ahh, my bad dude...i'm gonna install and fiddle with it. thanks :)

Great hack!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't know, what i am doing wrong, but the list is not showing up. Seems that the Display_Readers template is never included, wether I am in the right usergroup or not. I entered 6 for the usergroup, as i am the board admin. But nothing happens. And yes, I have activated it :-) Any Idea about that?
THX 4 help!
