* Occasionally, you may notice a link beying displayed as "-" rather than a thread title. This is normal. This simply means there is no thread which is newer (or older) than the current thread being viewed. This same functionality is in vBulletin by default.

it`s not loading to the settings groups

i can`t find it anywhere

though i can see the results on my forum but can`t change it`s settings

Hrm. Give me a sec.

Fixed. Go ahead and download and overwrite the product. Sorry about that.

Great hack, I have a very old version bookmarked which required edits. This one will do nicely as a replacement. Thanks! :)

i dont see a zip file?

You caught me uploading a new copy which included a URL link back to this thread. :P

/embarass

As this has two queries, would it not be server intensive on a large scale?

Thanks for this but I think vBSEO does that already.

Define large scale. Regardless of the size of your forum, that doesn't change your SHOWTHREAD page. Forum size is irrelevant. However, if an additional 2 queries is of concern to you this result could still be achieved with a quick file edit which would add no additional queries.

I chose this method because a plugin is far more desireable than file edits. Your choice.

However, if you find different results as to the performance load incurred, I'd love to know. Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of a large scale / uber-active forum to test on. :(

Does it? I'm a vBSEO license owner, and I couldn't find this option in the vBSEO Control Panel.

Either way, this is a free alternative for those not fortunate enough to be blessed with a vBSEO license. :P

* Edit: I checked the vBSEO forums, and indeed they are implenting this feature -- however, I'm unsure if it's a function of vBSEO or a completely separate hack they are using. I'm looking through my vBSEO Control Panel right now and I can't find an option for it.

Thanks. This option was long overdue.

I am getting greedy. Can't we have both, under navbar and bottom of post, and make under navbar display the same way as bottom of page?

Sure. Give me 10 minutes.

Ok, so I took a few minutes more than 10.. :)

Just updated v2.0. This will allow you to choose placement (Top, Bottom, Both) as well as tailor the layout to your liking via templates (nextprevtitle_bits).

I usually recommend to uninstall the product, then import the new version -- however, you should be fine by selecting "Allow Overwrite" when importing.

Enjoy.

thanks, i'll do it now

vBSEO Option:

Awesome. That'll teach me to read, eh? :P

There's just soooooo much stuff in the vBSEO Control Panel. I've only had it maybe 3 days -- I'm still trying to figure out all the ins and outs of it. :)

Thanks.

works fine, thanks again

Installed. Thanks. Great mod.

EDIT: For 3.6.3 it doesn't work.

I just confirmed that this does in fact work with 3.6.3. Tested on a fresh 3.6.3 installation and everything works flawlessly. Your problem lies elsewhere.

Ok, excuse me. :)
I try to explain to you my problem. When I click on the thread title, it give me the next/old thread, ok, but when I re-try to click on it, so to go to another ordered thread, it give me the same page (even if there are new/old thread). I have try to empity my chace but nothing.. cookie, but nothing..

Same problem :(

I'm sorry, but I cannot replicate the problem you are experiencing. I've tested every aspect of this product and it's working as intended each time.

I've tested it on a fresh 3.6.3 install as well as a 3.6.2 -> 3.6.3 upgrade.

*EDIT: I've managed to replicate the problem. I'm working on it as we speak.

The 3.6.3 bug has been fixed. Please download and import the v2.1 XML.

Thanks magnus, now I try it again. :)

Yes, now it works with no problems!
Thanks really magnus.

No problem, thanks for pointing it out. :)

It should be available in all versions of vBSEO including the previous ones and somehow, I think you have missed it so here's how to find it:

Go to vBSEO CP > SEO Functions > Direct Links > Replace 'Previous/Next Thread' redirect links and finally switch that option to "Yes". :)

Nice addon. Thanks for sharing

THANKS!! ALL GOOD ;)

thanks man

Wonderful hack, thanks :)

thanks was looking for this :)
however I would point one thing here:

there is no use of adding /showthread.php?t=5464&goto=nextnewest and /showthread.php?t=3424&goto=nextoldest to this URLs, consider removing them.

This behavior is default in vBulletin. See for yourself, hover over "Previous Thread" here on vBulletin.org.

Can You Do One For The Private Messages As Well......:rolleyes:

What do you mean?
