First post on every page of thread.

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:

INSTALLED. Useful hack, but may have been better if you set the plug in as "on" vice off. I had to go through all my forums individually and turn them on. Not complaining, just a suggestion.

Can we see a pic of it, please?

Just installed this. I love the idea, as I can see a couple of the forum areas on our site where it will be really handy. Thanks.

At this stage, everything appears to be fine, I might get around to editing the template, so the initial post stands out a little more, later on.

i install it, all ok , but normal posbit_first show avatar on de top, and a want it like a normal post(vertical), at the left, anyone can post template for it?

thanks a lot.

Is it possible to make, that you can choose if the first post should be always the first in every thread? Not in a hole forum... I mean that if someone makes a new thread he can decides if the first post should be the first post of every site.

Is the origianal hack that vbulletin.org uses free to download?

[Fidox]

Great add-on, thank you.

I got one question. Is there a way how to display page navigation and thread toolbar BELOW the first post (exactly like it is here at vbulletin.org)? I am playing with this three hours with no luck...

It was already explained how to easily enable all the forums to show first message on all pages.

To be able to run SQL Queries, you need to put your member ID in your config.php

PHP Code:

    //    ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******
$config['SpecialUsers']['canrunqueries'] = '';

I would be great if someone can share a nice template
