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:

Is there a way for this to only work on selected forums, not all forums?

stan111 · #**273** 01-26-2007, 08:06 AM

which one should i dl? there are two files

Blindchild02 · #**274** 01-26-2007, 05:28 PM

Hm, is there a way to add another one, because I want a certain postbit for one forum, and i'd like a different postbit for my news forum... and I want both to show on all pages.. does that make sense?

I tried to edit the product, and I was unsuccessful

any help would be great, thanks

You may have to add your preffix if you use one.

The original question was how to have the Add New Forum page have the "checked" value of showfirstpost be Yes by default. What you suggest will set all forums to show the first post, correct? This is different than having the default set to Yes, which your solution does not do.

This does not work on 3.6.4, ALL posts on a particular thread on a particular forum where this hack is enabled, all share the same postbit, not only the first post as it should.

:S
Anyone help please? I can go and work it around with GARS, but I dont want to use it in that paarticular forum I have.

TheDPQ · #**279** 02-05-2007, 12:04 AM

I just downloaded and installed this product. This is really useful product.

I have one problem.

It displays the first message in all pages only if the setting is

Thread Display Mode = Linear Newest First ( User CP >> Edit Options )

It does NOT work if the setting is,

Thread Display Mode = Linear Oldest First ( User CP >> Edit Options )

Many of our members use both settings. Is there a fix ?

FYI ,I am using 3.6.4
