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.

Why "Show a default icon" is totally desabled in this hack? I enabled it in Control Panel, but no effect.. Please, correct it.
------------------
Show a default icon if a user doesn't choose a message icon or is unable to choose one based on forum settings? {imagesfolder}/icons/icon1.gif will be used

A very great Hack

I installed it, but i had a problem (vB 2.2.9). I could find the problem and now the hack works fine *hehe*
I can't explain the problem in english, but i will try it.
You must delete the spaces on the left of the code.
For ex:
// Wrong:

Code:

   if {

// Right:

Code:

if {

Sorry for my bad english, but i'm german (15)

Is there a way to remove the time and put there "By" instead? thnx in advance!

theXME · #35 04-23-2003, 04:23 AM

That's simple.

Replace this

Code:

<font color="{timecolor}">$forum[lastposttime]</font>

with this

Code:

theXME · #37 04-23-2003, 05:19 AM

Ohh, the Forum replaced it

Code:

<font color="{/timecolor/}">$forum[lastposttime]</font>

But without the '/' at timecolor.

Thanks for everyones comments. Unfortunately I cannot provide support for this hack anymore because my server ran out and I am not intending on re-installing my forums until I can get a graphics person. This looks like it will probably take a while. Sorry to anyone who I said I would help and haven't. I may be able to pick up this project again and make a v2 for you all with a nice menu etc. in the future sometime.

theXME: Strange. That shouldn't make any difference seeing as PHP ignores whitespaces.

What's the thread ID for PPN's hack?

Boofo · #40 04-28-2003, 09:50 PM

Check his profile.

Check his profile.

Tried that. He's no longer listed as PPN, ostensibly because he has changed his user name. I guess I should know what he changed it to, but I've been lax at keeping up with such things.

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