Nice of you to share, but what is the point of a newthread button in showthread?

Threads go in forums. That's why there's a newthread button there.

Why not put one in usercp.php and payments.php? Can we maybe get one in the archive? What about CMS and blogs?

Eq4bits · #3 02-23-2010, 05:41 PM

That's a bit rude Kall.
I find a 'new thread' button on showthread very handy as do my members; besides being convenient it has also cut down on thread hijacking/going off topic if that button is *right there* to click for the member to start a new thread because what they were reading inspires them/makes them think of something similar.

I don't use a LOT of the mods because their use doesn't pertain to the use of MY forum, but I don't post snide comments in the mod threads.

Totaly disagree with you this is a useful modification and i would like to thank princeedward for releasing it

supportMM · #5 02-23-2010, 06:45 PM

AWESOME.......first thanks for making one of these mods work, and thanks for the PM letting me know you made it.

I have had members begging for this.

Its nice to give them something that works LOL

Cableguy69 · #6 02-23-2010, 08:08 PM

Yep my members make several posts at a time in certain forums so having the New thread button saves on a click for each new thread made.

Great little mod rated 5 and installed.

GeorgeB85 · #7 02-24-2010, 01:57 AM

I installed this following the directions, but for some reason the button and reply button are now only showing to unregistered members. Any idea how to make it to show to registered members?

hi there....this is impossible...we together of my members are using this without problem...this is something to do with adding maybe a conditional...maybe try to add this...

Show only members:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['member']">CODE HERE!</vb:if>

hi...this is possible maybe by adding conditional too...not tested but you can try to add this code...

Show specific user groups :

Code:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 1,2,3)">CODE HERE!</vb:if>

================================

Show only moderators of any forum:

Code:

<vb:if condition="can_moderate()">CODE HERE!</vb:if>

best regards and hope that helped you guys...

PLS. MARKED INSTALLED-NOMINATE-RATE!
