Nice hack, seems to be much better than the one already released. Nicely styled code and installer readme, too. Good job.

I haven't checked whether this actually works yet, but by reading the code I can't see why this is in beta stage.

I decided to leave it in beta for a few days just to make sure there aren't any bugs. If there are I will fix them and take it out of beta.

awesome i think this version is better than the other version. This hack requries no file edits!!!!

[derekivey]

Yup it just uses plugins

[Boofo]

Does this work in the editpost too?

[Valter]

It works fine in the editpost.

-It doesn't show description in search results.
-It would be great if you can make that thread starter is shown in separate column in forumdisplay. With description title/starter field is much heighter.

Nice work.
