For those getting errors on search.php, change $lastread with something like $last_read, otherwise you'll get error messages.

This should solve:

Cannot use a scalar value as an array in /search.php on line 2179

I am happy to have found this add-on. I am currently using it on my new site http://openfortea.com

However, I'm only able to get it to show on the home page. Why doesn't it show on any of the other pages?

Thanks!

I know several people before me has asked this question but I couldn't find any answer:

I'd like a link for the user to be taken to the last post in the thread. Actually, I'd like to link the words Last Post: to the last post in the thread.

How can I do that?

Thanks!

I dont think this is right ... $limitfids = x

But I cant get = 'x,x,x,x,' to work either

The only place this edit will work is under the permissions based section of the xml it wont work for me in global ,,, i have $limitfids = 6 and it works but cannot add more than one with out an error
