First post on every page of thread. · **Released**: 08-04-2005

I had a use for it, so I thought I would share it.

Requires no file edits (Thanks Kirby!).
Adds no quarys when viewing threads

This is something like here on vbulletin.org , it allows you to select forums where the first post of the thread is shown thru out the thread.

It uses stock template looks now , if someone wishes to make a template and share it feel free.

I will offer support as I can.

Ps. If you install this hack please click the install :nervous:

What VB are you running? and also you should be importing as a product.

It works as a product, I installed it as a plugin as this forum is a "plugin forum"

This is an EXCELLENT idea!

Is it possible to add the option of making the first post look different as well? For example that it doesn't show the memberinfo/avatar etc on the left like the other posts do? But instead only shows the original posters name?

Either way this is worth it even without that, but I thought it would make the first post look more like a regular article instead of a forum, and then the posts underneath could look like comments to the article.

Just modify the "postbit_first" template to be how you want it.... if you need any help just say/show what you want and ill have a go

Really nice. It would be cool if the thread starter could edit the first post in these forums even if he is normaly not allowed because of "Time Limit on Editing of Posts" expired

I isntalled it on an RC3 board and it causes the thread to not have multiple page.s.just one long list...

armkbdotcom · #**139** 09-30-2005, 05:47 PM

I've installed it but it doesn't functioning. Do I have to enable this from somewhere?
It installed 7 plugins and all are enabled.

In forum edit there is options to turn it on and off per forum.

I have not used RC3 I plan to upgrade to Gold later and see how it reacts.

Does this plugin include the option to make the first post look different like here on vbulletin.org?

I like to make the first one a review and make it look different.

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