New Posts & Threads Since Last visit · **Released**: 06-09-2005

Um. I think this one is fairly self explaintiory by now.

It gets a count of the newest posts and threads since their last visit.

Optionally you should add indexes on your post and thread tables for the dateline columns
[sql]
ALTER TABLE `post` ADD INDEX ( `dateline` );
ALTER TABLE `thread` ADD INDEX ( `dateline` );
[/sql]

Since putting this in global start, if there are no new threads, instead of saying 0 it shows nothing, is this normal?

Mine is ok and shows 0.

However one strange thing did happen earlier,it showed -1 new threads.
No threads were deleted,so don't know why it was a minus count.

Hi,

does it shows only the number of new posts in forums and threads the user has access to or does it show the number of ALL news posts posted in ALL forums since the last visit?!

I do not want my users to ask me, why they only can see 2 new postings, but the mod shows them that there are 10 new postings

Regrads,

Tobi

Can't account for that, I've not had that problem on my boards yet....

It just showed " -4 " :surprised:

Seems as though the thread total decreases each time i view a thread and then go back to it in the same session.

I think this only started when i moved the plugin to global_start and removed some of the code as suggested earlier.

Then I'd suggest using my original code and not running that somewhat intensive query on every page view.

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