I definitely will use caution before installing another one of his hacks

Definitely :-/

Is there a version of this mod without postbit choices?

MissKalunji · #**144** 07-09-2008, 07:15 PM

I've seen that one. requires a use of alternate postbit template. I simply need my legacy template to display the first post on all the pages. Other mods are normally installed into known templates.

Thank you anyways

Guys I tried reading the thread but didn't find a solution. Some people claim it works and others that it doesn't. But this mod is only working on new threads for me.

hi would it be possible to not have the first post on every page when this plugin is enabled. I mean all I want is the way the post looks, (article, legacy etc...) and not for the post to show up on the top of every page in the thread.

Any help would be really appreciated
thanks

BANDiT600 · #**150** 07-13-2008, 06:44 PM

ricky_s, there is no option for what you want.

kompakt, that's right, it works only when new threads created.

P.S: kompakt, it works perfect on my board.

Hello,

i use Postbit_legacy (user info left side) as default. The mod works so far, but it allways shows Postbit legacy for me if i choose postbit normal in the first thread.

But i want the first one "normal" and the rest "legacy" :/
