I am lazy by nature. I want to tell at a glance at the top of my forum home page if new posts are available or not. This hack does that.

In Index.php find:

PHP Code:
} else {
  $pminfo='';
} 
Add right below:

PHP Code:
$newJunk = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT lastpost AS recent FROM forum ORDER by lastpost 

DESC");

if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisit'] < $newJunk['recent']) {
   $newLinkColor = "red";
   $newPostImage = "new";
}
else {
   $newLinkColor = "black";
   $newPostImage = "off";
} 
(modify colors to your taste)

Upload a gif image called new.gif to your images folder. Many are freely available online. Pick one that suits your board.

Open template forumhome_newposts

Remove the code there, and insert this:

PHP Code:
<img src="{image<b></b>sfolder} /$newPostImage.gif"> <a href="search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getnew"><font color="$newLinkColor">View New Posts</font></a> 

That should do it.

Demo:

Of course, the demo only works if you are registered and logged in.

Oops. I just realized something. My off.gif is a one pixel transparent gif. If your off.gif is an actual image, you will want to upload a one pixel blank gif, and substitue the name for that image where I have "off"

It's not a released hack. Just a combo of ideas posted in the request forum by various coders.
