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.

This one still works.

I haven't upgraded to 3.7 just yet (should be within the next week or two), so in the meantime this helps my members. Thanks!

Oh, and for those that haven't read (or don't want to read) through these posts, you need to make sure that your settings are correct by going to...

ACP > vBulletin Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type

....and make sure that the "Thread/Forum Read Marking Type" option is clicked on "Database (no automatic forum marking)"

Paul,

Do you think you will be able to get this for 3.8? My members love it!

Thanks in advance,

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
