Thanks, one thing I did notice however is if you have any other modifications that go into the forum controls within the admincp (vbseo, etc) the "Enable / Disable Features" will not house the Forum Description permissions, it will be listed at the very bottom of the page, in my case in the vBSEO settings.

Thanks

Thanks for this.

The version for 3.7 is working with 3.8; your update shows nothing above the editor.

Any idea?

ShawneyJ · #35 01-11-2009, 12:44 PM

is this meant to appear in vbulletin options somewhere? i try 3.7 and 3.8 of this hack and i cant find it anywhere to enable it to work.

Thanks.

Did find a small bug so far.

If you create a new thread, and enter in the title as well as description as provided by this mod and hit post it shows just fine.

If you create a new thread, enter title and description and select preview, it reloads with a preview of the post, but the description disappears and you have to re-type it again.

. Added Thread Description maxlength Option (news)

One problem I did just run into, the description isn't carried over when you preview the thread.

. Added description field to Post Preview New Thread (news)

I'm not install SEO. You can test it if you like. Only install and uninstall in your sys.

Ok posting a picture does not do diddly squat for me on this. I cannot find it in the adminCP where EXACTLY is it? Please no pictures of it after you've opened it. What link is it in exactly?
