New on edit Hack needed
 

Hello folks,

im searching a hack or plugin or addon. He must works like this: If a user edit his post the thread must shown as a new thread. Do you know something like this?

Sry for my french english ;)

Best regards

Personally I haven''t seen such an add on but have a look here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=245

There you will find all the add ons made for vb 4x.

Hi,

thanks for vour answer, but there isn't a addon like this. So you can see this post as a idea for future developer :P

Hi folks,

is there anyone with this kind of mod?

Why don''t you request it at the request forums and hopefully someone will create it for you.

Sounds bizarre. Every time someone goes in to fix a typo a new thread is started??? What sense does that make?

Hi,

for example:

User A edit his post to change something. Moderartor A can chack the edit. Next example: User A add something to his post, etc... You know what i meen?

Maybe you're just asking for version checking? VB has that. A mod can just click on the "edited by" link to see the previous versions. I think there's a setting somewhere to turn this off, but it should be on by default.

I think that this can be added easily if you change the URL of the new post button to point to the newthread var so each time that a user clicks on post a reply will post a new thread.

Hi,

i think you don't understand me. We have 5 000 Threads and 35 000 Posts. I can't check every thread. It is better to see a edited post as a new thread, its more easy.

Easier than what? Leaving a thousand unedited posts lying around and having a thousand new threads that are just sitting out there with no relation to anything? Really, it makes no sense at all.

Hi,

i will explain it in german:

Mit dieser Erweiterung wird ein Thema als "Neu" markiert, sobald ein Beitrag bearbeitet wurde. So wird jeder Leser, der das Thema bereits gelesen hat bei einer nachtr?glichen Bearbeitung darauf aufmerksam gemacht.

M?chte also jemand auf sein Thema aufmerksam machen, kann er das mit einem Nachtrag, beziehungsweise mit einem erneuten Bearbeiten seines Beitrags machen. Auch das Verfassen von doppelten Beitr?gen entf?llt.

You can try to translate it via google or other translation-bots. Maybe you understand now the sense of this addon or modification. :)

I think I understand a user makes a posts. Then they seen they forgot to add something to it but you already read the post and maybe replied but the edit you didn't see as you didn't know about it. This is why you ask that it show up as a new post. I was looking for this since vb 3.x and it can be done I am told but it isn't a easy one to do I hear too? I run a support forum this is why I was looking for it but just gave up.

Oh. Yes, it does make more sense in Google Translate. You just want to mark a post as 'unread' if it's edited. That actually makes sense.

I have a co-admin that would do that all the time - go in and edit his first post instead of adding to the end of the thread so we could see that it had changed.

No, I've never seen a mod like this either. Seems to me you would have to only allow it for first posts, and then it would have to be an optional checkbox. Then somehow you would have to trick vb into going to the changed post, not the last post.

So we need a developer for this :D
