Edited post ==> Unread post
 

Could someone create MOD.
When I or someone else edited some post, that post will be marked unread for other users. So, when they click on New Posts, that post should be showed

This would be very helpful.

Anyone?

I might be able to make this. Though it will take me a little while. Until I figure out how to do it otherwise, it will use a reporting method. You' see what I mean.

I can't guarantee anything, but I'll definitely try.

I will make this for sure!Great idea!Should be easy I guess.

Thanks! I actually have too much work to do to focus on side projects anyway :)

Easy ? Think again - just remember an edited post can by anywhere in a thread. :)

Yeah I took that into consideration.But the first post is always defined in the thread table ;)

Well, when I was first going to take this on, I thought of a rather practical method.

Basically, whenever a post is edited, a reporting account would post in that thread notifying that X post has been updated.

That would mean that the thread would be seen as unread. Any subscriptions would see the reported message "This post <linky> has been updated for this reason," or something like that.

I think such a method would be fairly easy to implement - far easier than simply making the thread automatically unread. However, I know the harder method can be done because that would be similar to the attachment system (i.e. showing that the thread has an attachment somewhere in it from the forumdisplay script).

I might implement both thechniques.
