[RELEASE vB2.0] quick 'who posted'

This is a fairly simple hack, but my users wanted it, so here it is.



What it does is to add a link to the number of replies for a thread, which allows users to quickly see who has posted in a thread without opening the showthread.php page. The results are shown in a small popup window.

Any suggestions or comments are welcome.

[edit: this hack is now included in vBulletin 2.0.3 and above]

yeah, I noticed that...just quoted wrong

I wanted to quote on this

ira there is no "strict php coding" rulebook that says one must enclose if/then segments withing curly braces

I like this because it is a standalone hack I wont add hacks that require editing of main files for sake of updating.


Thanks alot

One tiny bug....the post count is always one too many...

simple fix: replace $totalposts = number_format($totalposts); with $totalposts = number_format($totalposts)-1;

It bugs me why it is btw...Can't find anything wrong in the code...maybe $totalposts has to be initialized on zero first...but as far as I know that doesn't matter (didn't tested it though)
