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:

Didn't work for me. Would be appreciated if this was updated for 3.6.4.

Everything is working fine for me in vB 3.6.3 however I'm finding that the width of the first post is not as wide as the reply posts or the tool bar above. I've checked the table width and it's set to 100%. Not sure what else to do and was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.

Thanks

Same here. The first post is not as wide, but it is centred so it doesn't look too messy.

Another "issue" with this mod on 3.6.4 is that the multi-quote button is not available in that first post.

Is this the answer?

Im not on 3.6 so i cant really speak for it , but i edited the first_post template in 3.5 to suit my needs and it worked out quite well.

I added things like

Code:

 <if condition="$post[postcount] == ''"><br><b>Original Post:</b></if>

and also

Code:

  <if condition="$post[postcount] != ''">HERE I PUT IN THE SECTION WITH THE USERNAMES POST COUNTS , ETC ETC </if>

so that the initial post on the top of the page looked a lot different.
I had some changes if it was the initial post , and excluded other sections for the same reason.

The initial post ended up looking like this

Sorry I have not been very active as of late, just now getting back to the communities after working on many other projects offline.

It is possible but would totally change the hack, and something I have found no need for in my communities.

The problem with this mod is if you let members select which postbit to use, or if you use postbit legacy. There should be 2 templates to this mod.
