Unread Posts and Reputation Comments (welcome box) · **Released**: 08-13-2006

This modification is no longer available or supported.

Note: The unread posts portion of this hack only works if you use the database thread marking system.

This will display the actual number of posts that are still considered unread by you (and will show up in a 'getnew' search).

Versions 1.22+ also display the number of new reputation comments since you last checked your usercp.

There is the option to count the unread posts since your last visit, or all posts considered unread. This setting reflects the divider in the 'getnew' search display. There is also the option to disable the unread posts display or the new reputation comments display.

All settings are located in vBulletin Options > Display Unread Posts and Reputation.

To install this hack unzip the xml file and import it using the ACP Product Manager.

Please explain what you mean exactly.

I used the former version with the german translation. When I updated a few mins ago in the search string added backslashes \ . I removed them and now it works pretty fine.

Thanks Paul :up:

Paul M · #**335** 10-10-2007, 11:14 AM

Yes, the backslashes are no longer required.

I've uploaded version 1.23 - this has a small bugfix and also adds a new setting to allow the links to be prefixed (if you use something like CMPS).

If you have customised the phrases in the past then you must revert them (and re-do your changes), otherwise it won't work as expected.

I'm sorry but I don't get it...

The "Unread Posts" link is http://www.site.com/forum/\"search.php?do=getnew\" now

What should I do to make it http://www.site.com/forum/search.php?do=getnew ?

Hi,

how does the reputation comment "get read"? I click on the link, I go to the userCP manually, I logout, log in back again, still shows them as new.

Thanks,

Attila

Does the New Reputation line only display if you have a new reputation comment?

I used to have this add-on and the New Posts and Reputation count add-on installed. I had the New posts one installed so that I could get the New Reputation count. I had the manual edits to the navbar template. When I saw that the new version of this add-on added in that ability, I removed the New Post and Reputation count-add on. My manual edits are still in there. I removed them from one of my styles, and when I refreshed my forum, there is no New Reputation line as in the screenshot you posted.

Canis Firebrand · #**339** 10-10-2007, 01:23 PM

I was able to get it to show up by having a test account give my main account new reputation. But, I have the same issue as Ati2. When you click the New in the New Reputation comment link, it takes my to my UserCP where I see the comment. But it keeps telling me that I have a new reputation comment.

Which version do you use. Paul did just upload the 1.23. I think this one is without backslashes.

I removed them with the PTT from Andreas (Kirby). I don't know if it's available here on the VBulletin.org. You can find it here

I'm Having the Same Problem, the Link is:

http://inciarco.com/"search.php?do=getnew\"

The Right Link Shall Be http://inciarco.com/foros/search.php?do=getnew

Changing to Previous Version!!

Also there is an Incompatibility with the Hack "Cyb - PM System Enhancements" (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=141838) because the Message "You have 1 New reputation comment" is Mixing with the DropDown Menu that that Hack Adds to Display Some Additional Options for the PMs, so when trying to Click on the Link to see the Reputation Comments that Drop Down Menu of the Other Hack Displays!!

I Appreciate If you can Tell me The Template I can Edit to Change the Position of the "You have X New reputation comment" Message for me to Edit it and Solve that little Bug!! :up:

I Hope You Can Fix Those Little Details, Paul!!

My Best Regards!! :up:
