Display members who have recently read a thread

This modification is no longer available or supported.

If you have the new thread reading system enabled then this hack will use it to display anyone who has recently read a thread. The time limit is determined by your vb options thread marking limit.

You must be using the database thread marking system for this hack to work.


To install this hack, unzip the xml file and import it via the product manager.

The ACP settings are in vbulletin options > thread display options.


Upgrades:

To upgrade from version 2.18 or before, to version 2.21 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in SHOWTHREAD - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 2.20 onwards, upload the new product with overwrite set to yes.


History:

v2.16 : Added ACP setting to turn the display on/off.
v2.17 : Added ACP setting to restrict which usergroups can view the display.
v2.18 : Added hover display to each username which shows the date/time of the last post (in the thread) at the time the member read it.
v2.19 : Not released.
v2.20 : Not released.
v2.21 : Removed the need to edit the SHOWTHREAD template.
v2.22 : Updated ACP view permission option to take into account secondary
v2.23 : Added 'nofollow' attribute to listed usernames.
v2.24 : Minor changes, no update necessary.

If you have "who is viewing the thread" activated I made a template modification that will "split" the table that contains the users currently viewing the thread in half and make it display the users that have viewed the thread in the last X days in the second column. This way it looks neater I think as if you have those 2 enabled it looks quite terrible

TEMPLATE MODIFICATION (do this instead of the one that's written in the companion txt, not both)

In SHOWTHREAD find:

<td class="tcat" colspan="2">
			<phrase 1="$totalonline" 2="$numberregistered" 3="$numberguest">$vbphrase[users_viewing_this_thread_x_y_z]
		</td>
</tr>

replace with:

		<td class="tcat" colspan="2">
			<phrase 1="$totalonline" 2="$numberregistered" 3="$numberguest">$vbphrase[users_viewing_this_thread_x_y_z]</phrase>
		</td>
		<if condition="$vboptions[threadmarking] AND $bbuserinfo[userid]">
		<td class="tcat" colspan="2" width="50%">
					<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('thread_readers')"><img id="collapseimg_thread_readers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_thread_readers].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>

		$trtitle</td>
		</if>
	</tr>
	<tbody id="collapseobj_thread_readers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_thread_readers]">

Find:

<tr>
		<td class="alt1" colspan="2">
			<span class="smallfont">$activeusers
		</td></tr>

Replace that with:

<tr>
		<td class="alt1" colspan="2">
			<span class="smallfont">$activeusers</span>
		</td>
		<if condition="$vboptions[threadmarking] AND $bbuserinfo[userid]">
		<td class="alt1" colspan="2">
				<span class="smallfont">$treaders</span>
			</td>
		</if>
	</tr>
	</tbody>

Please inform if this causes any bugs. I tested it in my site and it works well

I attach a screenshot too so that you can see what this is about

Depends when you downloaded it. Version 2.11 (released earlier in the week) uses phrases, the older 2.01 did not.

It collapses all the tbody, including the members who are currently viewing. That's what I wanted to do with mine in the first place and I posted it in case aomeone else needs it
