Yea, that's definitely possible. I'll see if i have time to make an add-on for this.

Can you create a mod, that allows users to view posts that other people have quoted them in? Who Quoted Me kind of thing?

We crudely use:

http://www.mywebsite.com/forum/search.php?do=process&query=TimberFloorAu&searchdate=lastvisit&showposts=1

Doesnt seem that accurate...

installed and works, after clicking two threads when installed.
iis 6 + vb 3.7.3

[R-D]

There seems to be a couple of bugs.

Firstly, threads in the list are arranged by thread ID, not by most recently viewed.

Then, when the database is updated, it appears to only replace the last value. Meaning the first 4 threads you viewed are never removed from the list and the last value (the most recent thread) is constantly updated.



Here's a fix for the second issue. In the showthread_complete plugin, change:

PHP Code:

$recent_threadviews = array_slice($recent_threadviews, 0, 4); 


to:

PHP Code:

$recent_threadviews = array_slice($recent_threadviews, 1, 4); 


That makes sure the first value in the recent_threadviews array is removed.

Updated the .xml with fixes for both :up:

I have it installed, but it is only displaying one recent thread no matter how many I have clicked through. It just keeps replacing the first one. Version 3.7.3 of VB.

[R-D]

There was an unintended side effect in my last fix.

Although it corrected the problem if you have 5 threads listed, it also removed a thread from the list when you have less than 5 listed. Here's a better tested quick fix for the showthread_complete plugin.

Replace:

PHP Code:

if(!in_array($threadinfo['threadid'], $recent_threadviews)){
    
$recent_threadviews = array_slice($recent_threadviews, 1, 4); 


With:

PHP Code:

$count_recent_threadviews = count($recent_threadviews);
if(!in_array($threadinfo['threadid'], $recent_threadviews)){

if ($count_recent_threadviews > 4){
    $recent_threadviews = array_slice($recent_threadviews, 1, 4);
}
