Here's how to fix this

In plugins Alp Ajax Start and Alp Load find:

PHP Code:

$excludedforums = ''; 


add below:

PHP Code:

$ownthreadsforums = ''; 


Find:

PHP Code:

    if (!($forumpermissions[$forum["forumid"]] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview']) AND !$vbulletin->options['showprivateforums'])  {
        $excludedforums = $excludedforums . ',' . $forum['forumid'];
    } 


Add below:

PHP Code:

    else if(!($forumpermissions[$forum["forumid"]] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canviewothers']) AND !$vbulletin->options['showprivateforums'])
    {
        //can can't view others' threads here
        $ownthreadsforums .= ',' . $forum['forumid'];
    } 


Find:

PHP Code:

// get rid of initial comma
$excludedforums = substr($excludedforums, 1); 


Add below:

PHP Code:

$ownthreadsforums = substr($ownthreadsforums, 1); 


Find:

PHP Code:

if ($excludedforums != "") {
    $excludedforums = "AND thread.forumid NOT IN ($excludedforums)";
} 


Add below:

PHP Code:

if($ownthreadsforums != '')
{
    $ownthreadsforums = "AND (thread.forumid NOT IN ($ownthreadsforums) OR thread.postuserid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . ')';
} 


Find (this is in the query):

PHP Code:

            NOT ISNULL(thread.threadid)
            $excludedforums 


add below:

PHP Code:

$ownthreadsforums

Michelle,
It's about time somebody fixes this !!!!!!

Thanks a bunch

Did you find a fix for the problem of garbage screen if we leave it for a long time ? I got a screenshot a few page back

UPDATEd: After doing the changes, the plugin just squeeze my forum width. And it does not appear so i have to disable it

After doing the first or the second changes?

Links not working for me? :O

Couldn't this be made to only show latest posts from forums that the current user has access to view? That would be better than manually disallowing several forums by looking up their id's.

perfect ...

marked as installed ...

Hi! been using this for long time but now I wanted to show also the "prefix" in the thread display. Help?

[paulomt1]

new/old post icon doesn't work. Any fix for this?

[MissKalunji]

*never mind i got my answer*

[MissKalunji]

what would be good is if you could press a "more" link and choose an amount of stats)

Example 30-40-50 and u could view the latest 50 post..popular etc etc by
