Thread Description Hack v1.2 for vb3.5 beta 1
Support thread: http://www.extremescripts.com/forums...hread.php?t=12

I wil try to do my best to support this hack here but you will get my attention much faster on my site.

What this hack does:
This hack allows your users to add descriptions to their threads that show up on the threadlist. This allows people to read what the thread is about before they enter the thread.

Files To edit: 1
Queries to run: 1
Uses Hooks: Yes
Phrases To Add: 1
Template Edits: 3

Planned:
Add showing of thread description to search results.
Option to turn off thread descriptions on a per forum basis
Option to turn off thread descriptsion showing up on search results.
ajax support for editing thread description from forumdisplay.

If I have missed anything please let me know. I have worked on this off an on today with the power going going out every so often becuase of the storms we have had today.

If you are upgrading use the v1.0 installer and undo the editpost.php file edit. Then just load the new xml file.

There will be a new version that will be a full plugin possible later today. If I get the needed time to make the change. Plus I will release it as a product.

If you use this hack please click install.

I have made it do auto template editing for the editpost and newthread template to make things easier on everybody. I also updated it so that it works correctly with the quick edit and it works just fine with the quick thread title editor of vbulletin.

BTW, the description doesn't stick if you preview the thread...

Argh! Before reading the last few posts I began trying to edit the equivalent code for 3.6! LOL. Any news on the 3.6 mod?

Did you read my post above yours? It works.

Did anyone mention the thread preview problem? It deletes the description.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
