Display who has read a thread - Version 3 · **Released**: 04-04-2006

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This is a completely new version, based on the idea of my "Display who recently read a thread" hack.

It has a few differences that some people may prefer to the other system. However, those differences may not suit everyone so both versions will continue to be available. Note however that they both have the same product id, it is not possible (or sensible !) to use both at the same time. You can upgrade Version 2 to Version 3 simply by importing the new product with overwrite set to 'yes'.

This version uses it's own table and does not rely on the database thread marking system being active, this also means that old data is not lost when the display limit is passed. The problem of people not being recorded when reading old threads is also removed.

The hack is a vb product and is installed in the normal manner via the product manager - the installation does a small amount of processing so be patient.

Hovering over a name in the displayed list will show when the member last visited the thread, and (optionally) what IP address they last visited it from.

There are settings for the following (in vBulletin Options - Thread Display Options) ;

1. Turn the system on/off.
2. Restrict the display to certain usergroups
3. Restrict the IP display to certain usergroups.
4. Restrict the display to a set number of days.

Note: When using option 4, the data is still kept beyond this limit, so it can be changed at any time.

History:

v3.12 : First Release.
v3.13 : Minor changes, no update necessary.

For some reason I am getting the list of users that read the thread displayed twice! Any ideas why?

Thanks

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