The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

Display members who have recently read a thread · **Released**: 07-15-2005

This modification is no longer available or supported.

If you have the new thread reading system enabled then this hack will use it to display anyone who has recently read a thread. The time limit is determined by your vb options thread marking limit.

You must be using the database thread marking system for this hack to work.

To install this hack, unzip the xml file and import it via the product manager.

The ACP settings are in vbulletin options > thread display options.

Upgrades:

To upgrade from version 2.18 or before, to version 2.21 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in SHOWTHREAD - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 2.20 onwards, upload the new product with overwrite set to yes.

History:

v2.16 : Added ACP setting to turn the display on/off.
v2.17 : Added ACP setting to restrict which usergroups can view the display.
v2.18 : Added hover display to each username which shows the date/time of the last post (in the thread) at the time the member read it.
v2.19 : Not released.
v2.20 : Not released.
v2.21 : Removed the need to edit the SHOWTHREAD template.
v2.22 : Updated ACP view permission option to take into account secondary
v2.23 : Added 'nofollow' attribute to listed usernames.
v2.24 : Minor changes, no update necessary.

I downloaded yesterday but just in case I re-downloaded now and took a look at the template modification.
NO phrases.

NO phrases.

The template doesn't need any phrases, the text output is all worked out in the code. I think I know if it uses phrases or not, I did write it.

JFYI, it uses the following global phrases - member_has, members_have, no_members_have, no_names & read_this_thread.

Woops, you're right! Sorry!
Well most of the times one can tell by the template!

Thank you Loukrhtia for posting your code. Looks very clean

Vampyre · #59 10-16-2005, 04:27 PM

This is a simpler, but also nice alternative to the other Who Viewed Thread I used for my vB3.0.x , but this will do me for now.

Thanks, Paul.

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