Interesting. So does this check for the actual age of the thread (that's what it sounds like) or the date since the last reply?

The install instructions state:

In Template SHOWTHREAD
FIND
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$attachmentoption

Cannot find $attachmentoption in the showthread template but it is listed in two other templates: Newreply and Newthread?

So is this a typo or am I missing something?

LOL Thanks m8 but the instructions already say to place the code in there, but it also says`to place it in the showthread template.

But there is no $attachmentoption in showthread only in the newreply template.
