I have modified a hack to look like this.

PHP Code:

1. Run the following query:

ALTER TABLE thread ADD useridviews TEXT NOT NULL AFTER views;


2. In showthread.php, find:

if ($noshutdownfunc) {
  $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET views=views+1 WHERE threadid='$threadid'");
} else {
  $shutdownqueries[]="UPDATE LOW_PRIORITY thread SET views=views+1 WHERE threadid='$threadid'";
}

After that, add:

// make sure not to have redundancy in the view list, so get who's viewed it
// first (and do nothing for invisible users)
$thisthread = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT useridviews FROM thread
    WHERE threadid = $threadid");
$useridviews = explode(" ", $thisthread['useridviews']);
if (!$bbuserinfo['invisible'])
{
    if (!empty($thisthread['useridviews']))
    {
        if (!in_array($bbuserinfo['userid'], $useridviews))
        {
            $DB_site->query("
                UPDATE thread
                SET useridviews = CONCAT(useridviews, \" \", \"" .
                    $bbuserinfo['userid'] . "\")
                WHERE threadid = $threadid");
        }
    }
    else
    {
        $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread
            SET useridviews = \"" . $bbuserinfo['userid'] . "\"
            WHERE threadid = $threadid");
    }
}

// now...who's viewed this thread? (will include $bbuserinfo if he's not invis)
if (empty($thisthread['useridviews']))
{
    $thread['viewers'] = "nobody";
}
else
{
    $result = $DB_site->query("SELECT userid, ipaddress FROM user
        WHERE userid IN (" . implode(", ", $useridviews) . ")");
    $viewers = array();
    while ($user = $DB_site->fetch_array($result))
    {
        array_push($viewers, "<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"member.php?s=" .
            $session['sessionhash'] . "&action=getinfo&userid=" .
            $user['userid'] . "\">" . htmlspecialchars($user['ipaddress']) .
            "</a>");
    }
    $thread['viewers'] = implode(", ", $viewers);
}


3. In showthread, find:

$poll

Before that, add:

<smallfont>Already viewed or currently viewing this thread:</b> $thread[viewers]</smallfont><br> 


I think this will work but one thing.

How do I make it so that ONLY the person who started the thread can view these ips?

Please help me with that part at least. Thank you.

o ya and how do I make it only show in the Forum Ids above in my first post. Thanks again.
