Thread Descriptions
 

This product allows your users to add descriptions to threads which display below the title on various pages. You may define CSS to be applied to the description, the maximum length allowed for the thread descriptions (1-256 characters), and if you want an icon to be displayed to the left of the thread descriptions you may enter the path to the image file. You may also enter any CSS you want to be associated with the icon.

When a user posts a new thread, they will find a text field below the thread title field into which they may enter a description for the thread.

To change a thread's description, one may either edit the first post of a thread, or edit the thread via the "Administrative" drop-down menu in the "Thread Controls" element on the Show Thread page.

I tested it on "local" before going live forum, it works fine everywhere but I had this error on index page :

I must change all my threads(that have description) because I use other mod "thread description" we discussed in other thread. :(


* The above error comes up to me, when try to delete that thread with description.
Actually error comes up and thread does not deleted.


* Description we see in postbit under title, for me its ok only I default skin.
In all other skin css problems

Update - Version 1.0.1:

• Attempt to resolve reported db error on index page.

Edit: I have no issue with deleting threads...will wait to see if others report any issue deleting threads with descriptions. :)

It works now, db error on index page resolved :up:
I have no issue with deleting threads :)

Just, for the style, can you please make it appear under thread title (outside the orange section on my joined image)

Can you link to the thread where that's happening? I have a fix in mind, but I want to be sure...:)

I am still testing on "local" forum :o

Update - Version 1.0.2:

That's always a great idea...please try version 1.0.2 to see if this resolves the issue. :)
