This doesn't show up on my custom theme by PurevB. It shows up on the default theme. What hook is it using on postbit_legacy? Can I manually add it to my theme/template?

[Asterix_ita]

Sorry for the delay

I do not use hooks, I add text to the variable $post['message'].

do you have any idea for my problem dear Asterix_ita?

[stevieb]

Is there any way you can display it under the breadcrumbs at the top (just under the forum drop down links) instead of only in the first post as people don't always read the first post....

Otherwise, it's a great mod

I like this addon, but I would like to move it below the posts in the thread. Is this possible? I have tried using a different hook location, but when I do, it gives me a blank white page when I refresh.

I would like to move the Warning Message from the first post, to below the posts, above the quick reply box and "reply to thread" button.

[stevieb]

Also I've noticed once the alert appears on a thread, if that thread subsequently gets a reply (thus meaning it's no longer +365 days old) the alerts in post 1 of the thread remains. It shouldn't as the thread is no longer old.

[Asterix_ita]

Sorry if I have not answered before, but I had some problems.
In the next days I see to analyze requests

Regards

Edit

for stevieb: on first post are writed "The check is executed only and exclusively on the first post inserted"

So if an old thread gets updated with a new reply the warning stays? In which case what's the point of having it because the thread won't actually be "old" anymore, if it's been updated with a reply...

It goes by the first post date not the last
