Some code help (Latest Posts Script)

For the script of the Last Posts here
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...5&pagenumber=1

thanks

Anyone =/

? i don't quite understand what you need.....

[Christy]

Ok, the Latest Post hack that you can put on any page, i just have mine set to show the latest subject lines. I want also to put a little image on the side that shows wether the post is new from the last ones youve read. so in this picture below



This would show theyve all been read, if the "v" was white it would show they were new. Im just not sure of the code to add in this script to check the last messages youve read.

i see what you are saying... i just dont know where to get the piece of code.:stupid:

[Neo]

heres that main code for it

// do light bulb
if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisitdate']=='Never') {
$forum['onoff']='on';
} else {
if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisit']<$forum['lastpost']) {
$forum['onoff']='on';
} else {
$forum['onoff']='off';
}
}

if ((!$forumperms['canpostnew'] and $showlocks) or $forum['allowposting']==0) {
$forum['onoff'].='lock';
}

// prepare template vars
if (!$showforumdescription) {
$forum['description']='';
}

[Neo]

and where would be a piece of code that goes in the templates for it

<img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt="">

but as for anything eles i am not to sure

[Christy]

Ok, this is the main part i needed

// do light bulb 
if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisitdate']=='Never') { 
$forum['onoff']='on'; 
} else { 
if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisit']<$forum['lastpost']) { 
$forum['onoff']='on'; 
} else { 
$forum['onoff']='off'; 
} 
}

Now wouldnt this be something else like thread instead of forum, since i want to see if the thread has been updated, not the forum

$forum['lastpost'])

Also shoudnt

$bbuserinfo

Have to be recognized as something

Im not a wiz at this, so thanks for going through it with me
