New Posts & Threads Since Last visit

Um. I think this one is fairly self explaintiory by now.

It gets a count of the newest posts and threads since their last visit.


Optionally you should add indexes on your post and thread tables for the dateline columns
[sql]
ALTER TABLE `post` ADD INDEX ( `dateline` );
ALTER TABLE `thread` ADD INDEX ( `dateline` );
[/sql]

I decided to go with having it displayed on every page on my site thinking overhead is not that great a problem because it's a small site. However, I'm having a little trouble with it where the new posts count shows nothing on any search page and also my CMPS homepage. I mean it just doesn't show anything at all, no zero, no nothing. I thought it might be related to the global_start hook. Would I need to change that to something else?

I am also unable to get this hack to work on the CMPS homepage, any clues on what to do?

Will this work outside the navbar? We don't use it but I'd like these stats to show on the left column we have that shows a user his stats when he logs in....I installed it but the links with the stats don't appear. The $newposts and $newthreads variables don't appear to work...
