Description of thread hack

This was requested today and I already had something like this implemented so i done a quick vbhacker file, it was done on 2.2.6 but you don't need to worry about that

It works with 2.2.0 and above.

Ahhh man I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. All the file edits, queries and the template edits are there.

i did the edit addon by Slynderdale, and i have the same problem that GameForums seems to have...

I did all the changes correctly, i try to edit a post and and add a description on it, seems to go ok but there is no description on forumdisplay..

I try to make a new test subject with despcription and it works fine !

i have 2.2.6 and didn't have to skip the second code etc.. i found

PHP Code:

if ($getpost[postid]==$postid) {
    $isfirst=1;
  } else {
    $isfirst=0;
  }
  if ($isfirst and $postinfo[title]=="" and $postinfo[dateline]+$editthreadtitlelimit*60>time()) {
    $postinfo[title]=$threadinfo[title];
  } 


so i don't understand either i'm doing wrong, please help us

thanks

Great hack! ^_^

The lack of working-ness is most annoying.

For some strange reason I upgraded to 2.2.7, and it now all works great. Cheers.

hallo. it`s great hack! thanx! I have only one problem - when someone post new thread and DON`T insert DESCRIPTION in the field then hack take a bit from $message text and put into $decription field. Can i fix it so if NO decription inserted - that`s mean NO description at all??? Or where can i configure numbers of symbols inserted from $message?

I hope you understand my ****ing english (sorry for that). If you already discuss it before just give me a link, please (i have not much time to serash all pages)

thanx a lot!

Good Luck

Nice hack, my members gotta vote if they want to have it yet, but I personally dig it. Have it running fine and ran into no problems on my local vb instance (2.2.9)

Btw, I wonder if it is possible to have an option for a user to NOT view the descriptions, via an option set in the UserCP etc? Would that be feasable or require a lot of change?
