This hack has been requested a number of times, for multiple versions of vBulletin. For whatever reason, it was never done (at least publicly) until now. Heres to wishing each and everyone of you a Merry Christmas, and a prosperous, healthy, and safe, New Year!
What it does: This hack will display a thumbnail of the threads attachment on the forum display. Quite useful if you have forums designated for graphics/photos .. etc. Could also be tweaked to display the posters avatar instead of an attachment. Variable possibilities. (Screenshot attached for further review) and or see it in action at this forum in realtime. If the thread has multiple attachments, it will display the first. If no attachment, a 'no attachment' thumb will appear. Can be assigned for use in any forum you wish it to be active in.
Install time is minimal - Less than 5 minutes for the average joe. (Simplicity at it's Finest)
1 file to modify, and 1 template to modify, along with the upload of an image.
Known Issues: If the attachment is not an image, a thumbnail will not be shown. (IE: .zip or .rar)
If you install it, please click the 'Install' icon - Updates will be sent to those who do.
OK, I enabled thumnails and chose, yes for show thumnails inline in admin options. I made a test post and the the image is now thumnailed but it is not showing the forum display.
Some older threads that had attachments show the "thumbnail not available" gif. Some do not show anything.
Here is a link to my forum display and the test thread I made...
EDIT OK, I rebuilt thumbnails and now some old thumbs show up but, again I made another test thread and it shows nothing. Also, alot of old threads don't even show the "thumbnail not available" gif.
One other thing is that create PNG thumbnails in the admincp is checked "Yes". Show that be checked to "No" or would that not matter?
Those threads, which are not showing up a thumbnail: Could it be, there isn't a image attached, but an image linked inside the thread with . Seems so. Try at least adding an attached image to that thread. The hack needs at least attachments. It doesn't work with linked images.

They are attachments. I tried making like 3 or 4 new threads with attachments and it doesn't work. I tried attaching images to old threads and that didn't work either.
Try to build it up in an testforum (maybe on your local computer). If it still doesn't work, would you be so kind sending me your forumdisplay.php via mail, so i can look inside of it (don't forget to remove your license-nr. out of it before sending)?
It may be, that it has something to do with the modifications of forumdisplay.php in 3.0.6. I still didn't updated, so i can't check. Hopefully i will upgrade end of the week.
