Variable Help

I am currently attempting to modify the following hack:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98651

Basically this hack shows the first attachment of the first post of the thread on the forumdisplay page. This would be great because I have a PROJECTS area that I would like to be able to show the LATEST PROGESS on the forumdisplay page.

I'm currently trying to modify this hack to show the LAST ATACHMENT, from the LATEST POST of the THREAD STARTER. Ignoring all other attachments posted by other users to the thread.

The XML file reads like this: (orginal) -

 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<plugins>
<plugin active="1" product="vbulletin">
<title>Thread Thumbnail</title>
<hookname>forumdisplay_query</hookname>
<phpcode><![CDATA[$tt_thumbsforums = array(7, 43);
$tt_displaythumbs = false;
if (in_array($forumid, $tt_thumbsforums)) {
$tt_displaythumbs = true;
$hook_query_fields .= ", attachment.thumbnail_filesize AS thumbsize , MIN(attachment.attachmentid) AS attachmentid ";
$hook_query_joins .= "LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "attachment as attachment ON(attachment.postid = thread.firstpostid) ";
$hook_query_where .= "GROUP BY thread.threadid ";
}]]></phpcode>
</plugin>
</plugins>

if you change the MIN to a MAX is simply shows the LAST POST from the very first post of the thread.. not exactly what I'm looking for.

Would any VB Guru be willing to give me alittle guideance?

Typically, to get support for a particular hack, you need to contact that hack's author. Each hack has a thread, that's the best place to get their attention.

tgreer is correct, the best place to ask about modifying a hack is in its support thread.
