Show Thread Enhancements - [OzzModz] Post New Thread Button In Posts

Another mod brought to you by,



This is a simple and better way to add a Post New Thread Button to showthread page...to a closed and open thread...above and/or below the posts.

It can be useful to have a Post New Thread Button on showthread very handy, besides being convenient, it has also may help cut down on thread hijacking/going off topic, if that button is right there to click for the member to start a new thread.

Maybe because what they were reading inspires them/makes them think of something similar.

It is a simple installation, just import the product XML, product-ozzy_new_thread_button

You can edit the options under the settings, Ozzy: New Thread Button Settings

Complete Feature List

• Option to disable the mod completely.
• Option to show the button above posts.
• Option to show the button below the posts.
• Option to select which usergroups can see the button.

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

Awesome addition. Is there away to deploy this elsewhere for example under thread title on forum display?

[ozzy47]

No there is not, as there is already a Post New Thread button on that page.

[m3rl1n]

sorry wrong thread ...opps

[fxdigi-cash]

just a quick question, isn't better to edit the template and place a code instead of using a plugin?? I read somewhere that plugins make vb board slow because they run continuously all times...

any idea if that this true?

Thanks

[ozzy47]

This does not add any additional queries, so no a template edit is not better.

[kushal]

can we also enable it for forum home too?

Ozzy, have you figured out, where the height of the button can be tweaked?

I had this button on my forums since forever and felt over your addon today. Nicely done with the permissions. I was hoping this one would deal with that, but I guess you haven?t found that option, too. I was searching forth and back through the stylevars and still have no idea, where the heck these stylevars are buried in the machine

Anyone?

[ozzy47]

Try adding this to your additional.css, and adjust as needed:

.newcontent_textcontrol {
    height: 30px;
    line-height: 30px;
}

.above_postlist, #above_postlist {
    height: 50px;
}]

Make sure the red values are the same.
