Mini - Post Counter in Split Thread

We have a forum that needs to remain on topic. I do a lot of thread splitting to move posts to our off topic forum. It can be a real pain sometimes. I've had Bira's post count in threads hack installed since last July. I realized I needed something similar for splitting threads. I did some tinkering using the concept from Bira's hack and came up with this mini hack. It's been working for a while, so I thought I would release it in case somebody else would find it handy. Intstructions attached.

I added a direct link to the post count so you can open the original thread in it's own window for comparison.

i'm really sorry to have to say that, but, you don't need to hack any file to achieve this effect.

it's just a simple template edit

open you template threads_splitthreadbit
and add
<br><b>Post # $counter</b>

after that: <input type="radio" name="splitpost[$post[postid]]" value="no" checked> No


so this is what ya want, no file modification is needed, and this thread could be moved to template modifications....
sory for decreasing your hack-counter
