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.

A question, if a user don't have the permission to acces to a specific forums, it show anyway the Unread Posts? Or this show as Unread only the posts for the users can have forum access?

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 I add forums/ in the Links Prefix Path the url is

http://www.mysite.com/forums/search.php?do=getnew On the vBAdvanced Homepage

But on the forums home page it is.
http://www.mysite.com/forums/forums/....php?do=getnew

The first is correct the 2nd is wrong.

Nevermind I had to add another slash.. /forums/

Paul.. i actually had your New Posts/Rep one installed originally, but when i did the update, it disappeared from my new posts box... I'm not sure why... I didn't do anything different or make any changes.. i did also post my issue in that thread..

i looked around and found this one.. and tried it ... it did the same thing... so i posted in here as well..

Thanks

habasabi · #**360** 10-10-2007, 09:52 PM

and to answer your question.. yes it is enabled to automatic...
