I just installed this mod in this post.
This is my result, different from what you see in your forum:

Perhaps it is some other product to see the answers to the first post as comments?
As in this forum?

What's the difference between "Thread Based" & "Forum Based"..?

They look the same.

Should be changed to:

Code:

    $ids[] = $thread[firstpostid];
    $postids = "post.postid IN (0" . implode(',', $ids) . ")";

I use Legacy Postbit, I haven't tested anything else, but for me it works now in vbulletin 4.0.

Ok from what i can tell is..
This one is set to a forum section, & is not able to be edited by the poster. The other one has a drop down option with each new thread.

Seems like in MOST cases this one is the right one to use, but i could be wrong.. depends on how knowledgable & trustworthy your members are in the usergroup that is able to do this.

Change 'ada_postbit_articles' to whatever postbit you'd like to use, I used: 'postbit_legacy' as that is the default on my forums. Although I think I'm going to change this.

When they all look the same, it doesn't stand out as the original post. I think I'll probably replace the original template of ada_postbit_articles with my postbit_legacy template and then edit it a bit to make it look just a little different, but keep within the same style.

Hey thanks so much for this. Exactly what I was looking for.
