Hi,

I have amended the XML and templates as instructed in this thread so that a)only admins can change the thread type and b)the default thread type is postbit. I now wonder if it is possible to use the article thread view in certain forums as default, and leave postbit as default in the other forums?

Would it be another if statement to do this?

<if condition="is_in_forum($forumid, 1,2,3)">

I can't code by the by, but that should explain the idea. Unless of course I set the default style to article, then in theory it will only affect the forums with this mod switched on *goes to find out*

Edit: Ok brill, it does it for you anyway. My old topics have not been updated though and I rebuilt the thread cache. Any ideas?

thanks for the mod, works perfectily installed in 1 sec and no problems...been looking around for this type of mod, just didnt know name of it..

Suggestion for next version,

is to have options in the vboptions menu to make it default chief post for all forums so not to have to go into each one to make 1st post chief...
Also make first post more seperate than others so it stands out ... ie have the page numbers below first post instead of on top of first post ..

Thanks again

[Super Jinni]

ok, it works but it lakes a lot of features

anyway, can anyone tell if there is anyway to turn this hack On/Off per thread not per forum? ^^

thanks in advance
