Thanks to both of you! It's now working as a plugin without any file edits.

Here's the threadbit_process plugin code:

PHP Code:

if ($ignore["$thread[postuserid]"])
    {
        $thread['preview2'] = '';
    }
    else if (isset($thread['preview']) AND $vbulletin->options['threadpreview'] > 0)
    {
        $thread['preview2'] = nl2br($thread['preview']);
    } 


Then $thread[preview2] in the threadbit template will display proper line breaks when used for inline thread previews in forumdisplay.php.
