vB3 Style - "Last Posts" Modification (v1.2a) · **Released**: 01-14-2003

vBulletin Hack: vB3 Style - "Last Posts" Modification.
Version: 1.2a

Designed and Coded by: Krakken
Copyright ? 2003

This hack will change the "Last Post" section on your Forum Homepage to a style similar to vBulletin 3.0.
It will show the last active thread someone posted and it's current icon in on the forum homepage in the place of the date and time. The date is completely removed in this version and the time is placed underneath the thread title next to the name of the last person to post in that thread.

Example:

Working Demo:
http://www.randomrubbish.net/bulletin

Files to Edit: "index.php" "forumdisplay.php" (x2)
Templates to Edit: "forumhome_lastpostby" (x1)

Current Releases:
v1.2a - Added a fix so the thread shows in the category view as well.
v1.1a - The script now only uses two querys (one for thread and one for thread icon) to display for all forums. Also, thread icons can now be seen next to thread title.
v1.0a - Changes "Last Post" template and adds last active thread view to forum home.

If you like this hack please click INSTALL. Thanks.

I tried using this hack but it seemed to grab threads from the wrong forums so I had two of the same threads showing up as the last thread in two seperate forums when the thread only exists in one of them :-\

I found a small bug in this. If the topic has been moved, and it is the most recent topic in a forum, it doesn't redirect you to the new location. It just shows you a blank section that you may reply to

I have the quick reply hack and that's all I can see when this happens.

Other than that, looks very nice <me clicks install>

I am also having this problem. I see 3 of the same topics in 3 different forums. Two of them are incorrect.

Hmm I really have no idea why it's doing that. I'll take a look at the code in a bit. Could you give me a little more information? Maybe a screenshot and vB version? Thanks.

Ah I just visited your forums and it's because of the way you structure your forum. I will try to make a fix for it and release it as soon as I can.

ty, hack looks great. I'll uninstall until there is a fix

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