ok, I was asked about two other hacks I wrote, and how to integrate
them with this hack, so here goes:

1) The
"
Who Posted" enhancement hack ('showposts').

If you installed my hack variation - of using a separate,
showposts.php file (rather than hacking showthread.php) - you will
need to do two small changes to showposts.php:

a) Find

$pagenav = getpagenav($totalposts,"showposts.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&postuserid=$postuserid&perpage=$perpage");

Change to (addition marked in high):

$pagenav = getpagenav($totalposts,"showposts.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&postuserid=$postuserid&perpage=$perpage[high]&display=$display[/high]");

b) Find

getforumrules($forum,$getperms);

ABOVE that ADD:

PHP Code:

// Contract Old Posts in Thread (v1.0)
if (strstr($HTTP_USER_AGENT,"MSIE")) { 
  eval("\$hideposts = \"".gettemplate("showthread_hideposts")."\";");
 } else { 
    $hideposts = "";
 }
// Contract Old Posts in Thread (v1.0) 


That's it. Save and upload file.

2) The
P
ost Count & Direct Link hack ("post #xxx");

This is more a design explanation than an actual hack integration.

I will explain to you what changed in the postbit template. That will
assist you in integrating any post you want, not just the count post
hack.

The "Contract Old Posts" hack changes bpostbit only in that it
adds a division (<div></div>) and defines the traditional postbit as a
division. So the new postbit looks like:

<table bgcolor="{ pagebgcolor }" width="{ tablewidth }" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td width="10"><img width="10" height="1" src="{ imagesfolder }/space.gif" alt=""></td><td width="100%"><!-- spacer -->

<table cellpadding="{ tableouterborderwidth }" cellspacing="0" border="0" bgcolor="{ tablebordercolor }" { tableouterextra } width="{ contenttablewidth }" align="center"><tr><td>

<DIV id="p$post[postid]h" style="display:$ph">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="{ tableinnerborderwidth }" border="0" { tableinnerextra } width="100%">

	<td bgcolor="$post[backcolor]" width="175" valign="top" nowrap>$plusimg	<normalfont><b>$post[username]</b></normalfont></td>

		</tr>
		</table>
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
</DIV>

<DIV id="p$post[postid]e" style="display:$pe">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="{ tableinnerborderwidth }" border="0" { tableinnerextra } width="100%">

			</smallfont></td>
		</tr>

</DIV>

</td></tr></table>

<!-- spacer --></td><td width="10"><img width="10" height="1" src="{ imagesfolder }/space.gif" alt=""></td></tr></table>

The BLUE part is the old, traditional postbit --
this is what the post looks like when it's expanded.

The RED part is the newly added division -- this is
what the post looks like when it's contracted (shrunk).

Therefore, if you want an element to show in both situations - when
the post is expanded or contracted - that element must be placed in
BOTH divisions (the red and the blue).

For example, you can notice that in both the RED and the BLUE
divisions, I have placed $onlinestatus, $post[foldericon],
$post[postdate] and [b]$post[posttime] -- these elements will show
whether a post is extracted or contracted.

Therefore, likewise, if you have $post[postcount] in the BLUE
divisions (expanded post) and you also want it to appear in the
contracted post, then you need to place $post[postcount] in the RED
division -- wherever suits your design.

Hope this explanation helps.

Cheers,

Bira

p.s.

some people may have $countpost instead of $post[postcount], depending
on how you installed this hack. They are, however, the same.
