And I have the right to say it's been done before. Don't like it, don't read it.

Stop being a trouble maker and move on

Honestly, is this a forum, not a schoolyard.

There is no rule against people releasing another modification that does the same thing as previous mods, as long as code is not copied - there are many examples of this on vb.org. There is no need to comment about it. No more please.

Because this plugin adds an extra query for every thread bit. If you have 100 threads showing on forumdisplay, that's 100 extra queries!

This can be done easily without queries. the threadbit_display hook already has access to $thread['dateline']. Just run it through vbdate and assign it to a template variable.

humm now I do understand why my pages slowed so down. :erm: is there another way to do this without that uge ammount of queries? my forumdisplay has 25 threads and it stops >7/8 seconds b4 giving results. I wont imagine a 100 threads forumdisplay lol

How can we extend this functionality on other pages like newposts, search.php? Currently this only extends to thread_display plugin.

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