The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

First post on every page of thread. · **Released**: 08-04-2005

I had a use for it, so I thought I would share it.

Requires no file edits (Thanks Kirby!).
Adds no quarys when viewing threads

This is something like here on vbulletin.org , it allows you to select forums where the first post of the thread is shown thru out the thread.

It uses stock template looks now , if someone wishes to make a template and share it feel free.

I will offer support as I can.

Ps. If you install this hack please click the install :nervous:

Templates for first post:

Looks ok to me now, the only thing is that when thread is consisting from 1 page, the original postbit is not being used...

Yes in some of the first pages someone shared one they made.

I am lost what you mean?

I just upgraded to gold and everything works as should on mine.

What I mean is - could you make the first post to use postbit_first ONLY when number of pages in thread is more than 1. In other words - do nothing for single page threads.

How hard would it be to add an option in the Thread Display Drop down on the NavBar so the users themselves can choose?

I ask because some of my users have asked for a feature like this for large threads. I am hoping to use this along with show newest thread first.
So it would be nice to let them choose how they want the threads to be formatted.

thanks for the plugin and the time to develop it.

I'm totally agree. That would be brilliant to have it just like "Thread Stick" option for each thread.

@insane-topics
I've made a few changes to this Hack
- optimized/less code
- works with "Newest First" now too
- no need to manually create postbit_first

Fell free to use it if you want.

after installing this, it seems to add the first post to every page of every forum, even if the setting is shut off ... suggestions?

You don't want this for all Forums?
Well then ... XML updated.
