Display Unread Posts · **Released**: 12-23-2009

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This displays the actual number of posts that are still considered unread by you (and will show up in a 'getnew' search).

There is also an option to put back the members last visit date, which was removed in vb4. There is the choice to count the unread posts since your last visit, or all posts considered unread. This setting reflects where the divider in the 'getnew' search display used to be (apparently its no longer displayed).

There is also the option to disable the unread posts display or the new reputation comments display. New Reputation Comments are shown in the Notifications section.

This modifications settings are located in vBulletin Options > Display Unread Posts[/COLOR].

The unread posts functionality requires that database thread marking is active.
Please be aware that installing this will enable that system (with automatic forum marking).
Forum marking choices are located in vBulletin Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type

To install this hack unzip the xml file and import it using the ACP Product Manager.

Thanks for the info - so it might be a problem with an additional AddOn - seems I have to investigate that....

What is curious: When I click on "No unread posts" the URL is http://www.florida-interaktiver.com/....php?do=getnew[ARG:2%20UNDEFINED] ?? This causes the blank screen, I think.

Just installed in 4.1.9
Working perfectly!
Thank you for this mod!!

Allego la traduzione in Italiano. Non sono traducibili:
Use Last Visit Date --> Utilizza la Data della tua ultima visita
p.s. Conta solo i mess in questo intervallo
Count All Posts Marked as Unread --> Conta tutti i messaggi non Letti
Disable Unread Posts Display --> Disabilita la Mod

thanks for developer of this add, I have installed it on 4.1.9, working properly.

Just wanted to ask:
Is ist possible to make so that the plugin counts your own new posts as unread. My users are almways complaining that in "New Posts"(navbar) or in this plugin own posts of users are not shown.

regards,

No, that would not be sensible.

How can you not have read your own posts ??

I can think of many people who look as though they haven't. :erm:

My users were disappointed that this feature was no longer available with the 4.x.x forum. Thanks for making the mod.

I have several forums that are hidden except for selected users. When a member searches for Unread Posts they get a printout at the top of the page of all of the excluded forums. I would prefer that they not see that list as it raises more questions than I care to answer.

If I don't exclude any forums will they not be included for those members who don't have access to those forums anyway? I don't want them to find unread messages in forums they don't have access to.
