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:

Forum manager , choose the forum, edit and at the bottom by save should be the option.

This is why I REALLY shouldn't work and modify at the same time.

I installed the hack yesterday and it didn't seem to work. I then read the posts about messages vanishing, so thought (late last night) I had better remove this until I sort the problem. Then this morning I set to work and then installed the new version of the plug-in but ended up installing it in the plug-in manager rather than the product manager.

Sorry guys. I need some sort of special award for this. And I should also have my day release privileges revoked.

You got it figured out and working, that is the important thing.

Ok. New problem, sorry.

I have got it working but when I posted about the new feature on my forum some of my members said that they couldn't see it. After some digging this became apparent.

I configured the forum to show posts as Linear - Oldest First; the first post then appeared on every page. I set it back to my normal setting of Linear - Newest First; and the first post does not show up on every page.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this just inevitable?

I will have to test that, I never have used the newest first option so it is a new thing for me.

There is an issue with this so i have disabled it.

I had spotted that the odd post or two wasn't showing up in a thread. In numerous sections members posted and it was missing from the thread yet it showed up if you searched their "find all posts" in their profile. Disabling the first post on all pages puts the post back.

anyone else had this issue?

ive had 6 members mention it to me so far
