This modification is no longer available or supported.

The 3.6 port of this simple hack with some small changes.

This displays the number of new posts since your last visit & the number of new reputation comments since you last checked your usercp - both are displayed in the welcome panel.

Changes ;

* Fixed bug of them not showing on error pages.
* Either can be now turned off with a setting in vBulletin Options > Display New Posts and Reputation.

Notes:

If upgrading from the 3.5 version then you will need to re-do the template changes.
Versions 3.21+ do not require any manual template changes. See Post #167

You would have to edit the phrases to put in full paths instead of relative ones.

Thanks Paul M, fore updating this hack.
But this time it wont work.
I have uploaded the product and done the templates changes.
And done the editing in CP. It wont register new posts and reputation comments. Ore it wont count the numbers, of new rwp comment ore new post.

No, in the earlyer versions, it will tell you fex; There is 900 new posts and you have 4 new reputation comments.
Now it wont tell anything. Just, new posts.

Gonzoo; I have uninstalled it and went back to the version fore 3.5, it works.

Paul M · #28 08-21-2006, 09:45 PM

Both work fine.

version2 · #29 08-24-2006, 12:58 AM

Someone want to tell me how I can get the:

"New Posts since your last visit: XXX"

BELOW the:

"You have no new reputation comments."

Or above it. I just don't like it right under the Welcome message.

Paul M · #30 08-24-2006, 02:16 AM

Just move the template edits to suit where you want them.

version2 · #31 08-24-2006, 12:34 PM

It seemed that when I moved them to the bottom...below all the usual welcome stuff...nothing showed up. When I put them in where your instructions told me...they showed up. Very strange. I understand it is a very simple text edit and I am not a complete moron...so I dunno what happened.

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