Since the mod uses fetch_musername($fetch_userinfo) to get the marked up names, which returns empty at deleted users, the names of deleted thread creators were not showing up in the threadbit_display.
I added
PHP Code:
if (empty($thread['post_musername'])){
$thread['post_musername'] = "<strike>".$thread['postusername']."</strike>";
}
to e360mods/markup/hooks/threadbit_display.php to make them re-appear.
Is my template at fault or is this a possible bug?
