Condition worked in 4.0.1, but not in 4.0.2

[utahraves]

This was the same conditional IF command I was using on 4.0.1, upgraded and now it no longer works?
Template: Postbit

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND (($post[postcount] % 5) == 0)">
<div class="attachments" align=center>
...
</div>
</vb:if>

The code is to display a banner after every five posts only in SHOWTHREAD (postbit shows up as private messages too).

Even taking out the "THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND" did not resolve the issue.
Please help

Did you try printing out the value of $post[postcount] to see what was going on? It should work. You are using the postbit template and not the postbit_legacy template, right?

[utahraves]

Correct. I am using the postbit template and not postbit_legacy.

I typed in $post[postcount] in the postbit ---
It put 5 "$post[postcount]" underneath the first post but not under any other posts (I'd expect it to do it under EACH post, not at the end of the first post).

I replaced the $post[postcount] with {vb:raw post.postcount} and refreshed, now under the first post I see "1 2 3 4 5" --- There are 5 posts in this thread.

Edit: I have also disabled all of my modifications to see if it was a mod and I am still able to produce.

I just put that code into my postbit template and it shows up in post 5 and 10 of my 12 post thread. Are you sure it isn't in the page source at all?

[utahraves]

Well I feel like a complete idiot. I wasn't really paying attention to the code I was putting in between those fields. I was accidentally putting a counter code in the postbit instead of the banner code. I feel completely ridiculous - I have a cold from Hell and it is totally screwing with me.

Thanks Lynne - always appreciate your help.

Edit: So I put the right code in --- but the DIV attachments is spreading from post 1 to post 5 and ends with the banner, starts up again post 6 and ends with post 10... maybe I have to RE-revert my templates... *hates doing this*

Check your code that you closed your tags correctly.

I tried this code with VBulletin 4.2.3 and it only shows the ad after the 5th post. What needs to change so that it shows an ad every 5th post?

<vb:if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == showthread) AND (($post[postcount] % 5) == 0)">

Wow, 6.5 year old thread .....

As posted, that will generate at least two php warnings, it should be 'showthread' not showthread (i.e. with single quotes), postcount should also be [single] quoted.

Thanks. The ad shows but does not repeat every 5 posts -- it only shows after the 5th post.

if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread') AND (($post['postcount'] % 5) == 0)

Is this the correct conditional for showing an ad every x number of posts?
