Hey there, i'm able to "chief" every post on the first page but i'm only able to use one template. i'm not exactly sure which postbit template is being used...Doesn't matter which one I select as the default for the forum.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Just tried it on vb4.0 and got a database error, think it needs to be ported over

Check the plugin for the hook "showthread_query"

Current Code:

Code:

    $ids .= ",$thread[firstpostid]";
    $postids = "post.postid IN (0" . $ids . ")";

Should be changed to:

Code:

    $ids[] = $thread[firstpostid];
    $postids = "post.postid IN (0" . implode(',', $ids) . ")";

I use Legacy Postbit, I haven't tested anything else, but for me it works now in vbulletin 4.0.

Man this is awesome!! Works 100% on 3.8.4 P2

And to your question, there is no setting in your vb Options. Open your Forums & Moderators tab on the left in your ACP. Select Forum Manager......select the forum you want to enable this on.....scroll right to the bottom....Chief First Post ....and make your selection....Save...

Done!!
