Hi all,

This is a brand new addition to my own BB, so I don't even know how my own users will react to it, let alone how you guys would

Hack Description:
  • Posts you have already read in a thread, will show up with their header only (a row that includes the username, post subject and date only). New posts only will appear in full.
  • This is user selectable via the 'Edit Options' page: each user can decide if he wants this option on or not. (By default all existing and new users will have this turned Off).
  • A link at the top of the thread offers to "expand all" posts or "contact all" posts.
  • by clicking on the + sign on a shruk post, it will expand without the page reloading. By clicking on the - sign on an expanded post, it will shrink without the page reloading.
  • [high]this option is available for your IE users only! Netscape users will see no difference and will not be affected anyway at all by the change[/high]
How to install:
  • Please download the attached zipfile.
  • Upload plus.gif and minus.gif to your images directory
  • Upload install_contractposts.php to your admin directory and run that script.
Note: there are quite a few changes to make (primarily additions, not replacements) to the vb scripts and templates. The process should take you several minutes, so I recommend you close your Bulletin Board while installing the hack.

Demo:

You are welcome to visit my Bulletin Board, at http://www.atlasf1.com , to see what the additions look like. To test it in full (ie, the option of old posts being shrunk by default), you will have to register and modify your options after you have received your password.

Cheers,

Bira

Hmm....I follow it EXACTLY. I copy the ENTIRE "find" thing and then I get the result and then I add the appropriate line/s under/above it

I have installed many hacks with no problems, both on VBB and UBB

Hmmm....I'll give it one more shot on my beta board.....if it doesn't work, can I ICQ you over the files?

yup, I realized that. I just cannot get them to display at the same location, so I placed the lower part on the same line with favicon. Does not look too bad.

Thanks, Bira.
I was searching this hack after having seen it applied here on vb.org... finally found!

Just a question: as I have a very hacked v2.2.1 board, and listing the installer I saw some 'low-level' code like deleting template, and so on...
It could be possible to have a txt - as usual - with the sequence of the operations, without letting the code doing them itself without any control ?

Otherwise, if you say it's safe even on hacked boards, I'll run it immediately !

Thanks again

did the install 3 times, and i have the same problem as the others, it wont collapse the posts automatically. I installed a hack that expanded and contracted the actual threads, maybe that had something to do with it? Either that, or because im using internet explorer 6.0.

Great hack! I love it! Really helps to clean up my forums. Works well on my heavily hacked forums.

Just a note to potential installers with other hacks like the gender hack - make sure when you make changes to your members.php that you don't erase the $gender variables - don't replace one code for another - just add the hidepost and $hideposts variables.

Thanks Bira!

One of the users on a board we installed this hack on went and checked which Linux Mandrake browsers it would work on, his post is here, in case anyone's interested.
