Update to Tubedogg's Bump w/o Post (Mods only) · **Released**: 08-03-2002

What this does: Allows moderators/admins to bump a thread without adding a new post via the thread's dropdown administrator options list. Unlike the "sticky" option, bumped threads will remain at the top of the forum only until a new post is added.

Works in: vBulletin versions 2.0 through 2.2.6

Changes to original: I've added the following updates --

- Directions and template mods updated to work for versions 2.0 through 2.26. (Original directions were created for a late beta version of vB.)

- After bumping, you're now redirected to forumdisplay. (In the original, you were returned to the original thread, even though no change was made.)

- All instructions and code changes are now in one file. (In the original, you needed to unzip three different documents.)

Background: Kevin (Tubedogg) created this wonderful hack back in March 2001. Since then there have been a few useful and necessary updates courtesy of members such as Arie and ThomasP, but we've had to read through the whole thread to find them.

To simplify things, I've added the changes and compiled the template & postings.php modifications into a single document. That's all I've done -- credit for hack and its updated elements goes to Kevin, Arie and ThomasP.

Enjoy!

Just wondering if there is any way to update the "Last Post" column on the forum summary after a thread has been bumped? Screenshot attached of what I mean..

The variables that would need updating are:
$forum[lastthread]
$forum[lastpostdate]
$forum[lastposttime]
$forum[lastposter]
showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]

Nice hack !

Quote:

the ones who have writen in the thread, the last poster or the first poster were allowed to bump it

Is that possible with this hack. I mean the thread starter should be able to bump the thread and the number of bumps can be limited from via admin cp for that particular thread starter.

Does this hack work perfectly fine on ver 2.3.0 ??

Thanks much, if any one can help with this.

Cheers
