nice one m8 shame it dont work on vb3.6.8 as just tested it.

I think you should add on vb 3.6 series this code to your FORUMHOME template under this code: than I hope it will works

ive added the product file and added the text into the forumhome template.

$latest_x_attachments

Does not call anything in.I can see all the options in admincp but nothing on main page.

Perfect! :)

very nice, thanx! installed!

can I set this to display on forumdisplay and have attachment show from each forum?

installed and great one ....... love it

I will try it to make new for 3.6.x series
you have before requested this hack tought :)
okei
don't forget clicking install button :)

great job

Installed

any news on why this wont work on 3.6.8 as yet m8 ?

I have upgraded my board to version 3.69 and i can get it to work , but if i activate it, my board crawls, takes forever to load.. i mean, literally 5 minutes.. if i dwitch it off in settings, the page loads instantly, switch it on and it crawls..

i wonder if any knowledgeable peeps here could examine this xml and maybe see what its doing to cause this crawl of pageload? its a really nice mod and its a shame to haev it lurking behind teh scenes never to see daylight, well, nbot till vb goes 3.7 gold.

just thought id let anyone thats is script savvy that if you want this for 3.6.9 you can prob tweak the code causing the lag..

regards

Pistils

please update gold version :)

Sry if this is a silly question, but:
So its not compatible with 3.6.9 but is with 3.6.10? :/

just try it I am not sure but I hope it will works

Great mod ! Thank's.

Just one question : How to select the forum where the thumb is coming from ?

(Sorry for my english... :p )

Hi Hasann

I have installed your Mod on 3.7 Final.
But after the installation the Server Load increase very high.
I have disabled it for this Moment, to figure out whats going on.
Maybe you have some idea that will help to find the problem.
Thanks in advance.

Somehow its not working for me. nothing is displayed.

edit: ok now i get
and there are many of them

Ok, I added/imported the plug-in, then replaced template code.
Can't see it appearing in the vb options thou.

Is there anything else I need to do?
Apologies I'm a little new to this.

EDIT: Pretty sure Ive followed the instructions to the letter.
If you add the plugin, is there anything else needed to make it appear in vb options?

Ok I've now installed 3.7.0.
Unfortunetly I'm still getting the same problem :-/

Plugin added, template changed, but doesn't appear in the options.

Is there anyway to get this so that it doesnt show image attachments but instead shows zip attachments.

I have a lot of files for my members to download so it would be good to be able to have somewhere that shows all the newest ones.

Great Mod.. Found a couple of bugs..

If you only want to display attachment thumbs in your forums and not forum home, there is no way to do it.. Once you set "Enable Latest Attachments FORUMHOME" to NO, the displays in the forums themselves will always show "There are no attachments in this forum" even if there are... Set it to yes, and they magically appear in each of your forums. Some logic in the plug-in is wrong there.

Another minor bug... "Latest Attachments Thumbnails Link" works exactly the opposite as it's supposed to.. Even the opposite of the description.. If you want thumbnails to link to the post, you have to select NO.

Feature Requests: It would be nice if we had the option for the filename link to the picture and the thumbnail link to the post (at the same time).

It would be REALLY nice if one plug-in grabbed x new pictures from user albums and x new pictures from the attachments and displayed them on the same line.

thanks

Is there anyway we can get it to:

Exclude certain Usergroups (comma separated ID list)

as an option in the VBulletin settings?

or how about a way to exclude certain types of files
i only want the latest pdf's to show, not pictures

Why are they so big :(

The thumbs will display the same size as you display thumbs in your posts. It would be nice to somehow be able to adjust the size for the thumbnails though. As I for one use a rather large thumbnail for in post attachments so this mod won't work as even displaying one thumbs totally throws of the layout of my template.

Doesn't work, uninstalled.

Is this only for images? This would be sweet if you could only include certain file types. My forum is based around binary files, and I would love to be able to show the last 10 uploaded binary, zip, rar files (and not images). This is an awesome idea :)

Very very nice mod.. Would be great if we could exclude certain forums.

excellent! thank you

I have a problem, when hitting the image file it is not showing the thread location of the image

I tried this but unfortunately I can't use it with the size of the thumbnails on my site...and I think my users would kill me if I shrunk the in-post thumbnails. if you were to add a thumbnail width option that would change my mind. I'll be watching this.

I edited the plugin code and added a width to the two img lines...worked fine...installed. Nice mod!

Good work! :up:

Is there a way to instead of clicking the pic and seeing the picture full size, it takes you to the thread where the pictures are?

and can choose forum id to show the attachment on the next version ?

You could also edit the template.Works fine with that.:)

Teşekkür ederim
