Hi there,

I've changed 2 Plugin's to get this Mod work, Thread Description - Edit Post and the Thread Description - Update Description.

The original code of the first one is

PHP Code:

<plugin active="1" executionorder="5">
            <title>Thread Description - Edit Post</title>
            <hookname>editpost_update_start</hookname>
            <phpcode><![CDATA[if ($postinfo['postid'] == $threadinfo['firstpostid'])
            {
            $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'description', TYPE_STR);
            $edit['description'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['description'];
            }]]></phpcode>
        </plugin> 


my code is

PHP Code:

<plugin active="1" executionorder="5">
            <title>Thread Description - Edit Post</title>
            <hookname>editpost_update_start</hookname>
            <phpcode><![CDATA[$vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'description', TYPE_STR);
            $edit['description'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['description'];]]></phpcode>
        </plugin> 


In the second Plugin I've just changed in the if-question the AND in an OR.

With this little changes it works correctly for me on 3.6.8PL2.

I am also including the product, which is updated to avoid the error indicated in this thread, using the edits mentioned in this thread. (Note- I also changed the name of the product from vBViet to Thread Description)

Yoyoyoyo, I don't have the TMS hack, do I still need to do the template hack or I just upload the product xml only?

Installed and working on 3.7.

Thanks, Paul.

[rapidphim]

Paul, did you use the original file/instruction from TrucLinh or you used the two files from Yoyoyoyo?

[PaulSonny]

Hello Rapidphim,

I used readme36x.zip in the original thread and followed all the instructions. I have edited my templates a little because I didn't like the image.

Thanks, Paul.
