Display Unread Posts · **Released**: 12-23-2009

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This displays the actual number of posts that are still considered unread by you (and will show up in a 'getnew' search).

There is also an option to put back the members last visit date, which was removed in vb4. There is the choice to count the unread posts since your last visit, or all posts considered unread. This setting reflects where the divider in the 'getnew' search display used to be (apparently its no longer displayed).

There is also the option to disable the unread posts display or the new reputation comments display. New Reputation Comments are shown in the Notifications section.

This modifications settings are located in vBulletin Options > Display Unread Posts[/COLOR].

The unread posts functionality requires that database thread marking is active.
Please be aware that installing this will enable that system (with automatic forum marking).
Forum marking choices are located in vBulletin Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type

To install this hack unzip the xml file and import it using the ACP Product Manager.

Yea Thank You! Installed

It would be nice if possible to hook the location and add the Unread Posts (xxx) like the template edited to the admin/mod on the header. Another words have it add Unread Post (xxx) next to the notifications instead of using it.

The unread posts portion of this hack requires the database thread marking system.

Seems I do not have this enabled. How can I enable it ?

I have tried all setting and it seems it isn't displaying it. I tried all three options and no notification, but when I click what's new it shows new posts.

Did you do the template edit ?

Charlie98902 · #9 12-24-2009, 02:22 PM

OOps I had a blonde moment and overlooked it.

Charlie98902 · #10 12-24-2009, 02:33 PM

I overlooked how it was going to look as well. Is there a way to add Unread Post (xxx unread posts) as a link sitting next to notifications and remove the rest of the time etc.....
