First post on every page of thread.

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:

This would nice as an option. Personally I find it quite annoying the way this forum shows the 1 post on every page.

[GuaRRand]

I dont seem to be able to get it to 100% width of my forum.

Tried a few different firstpost.txt files... but all seem be at around 80-90% width...

ANy ideas?

You can easily do this by copying your regular postbit content to the top of the postbit_first and sort of do the following with a conditional around it:

<if condition="$post[postcount]==1">

Your regular postbit content here

<else />

the postbit_first content you want on all other pages

</if>

Good luck!

Hmm, for some reason I had it installed on a vB 3.6.5 forum before, but now I'm trying to install it on another 3.6.5 forum but it's not working there. Bummer .

EDIT: Nevermind, it works perfectly. I uploaded the product I used at the other forum, in which I added a conditional for a $post[userid]. Thanks again for the great hack, it's been so much easier than adding forumid conditionals into the regular postbit templates!
