I would like this hack that is on the home page. Can it be posted?

Thanks in advance.

In index.php, find this:

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

and replace it with this:

        // do light bulb
        if ($bbuserinfo['lastvisitdate']=='Never') {
          $forum['onoff']='on';
          $forum['getnews']="<a href=\"search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getnew&forumid=$forum[forumid]\">";
          $forum['getnewe']='</a>';
        } else {
					if (isset($bbforumview[$forum['forumid']]) and $bbforumview[$forum['forumid']]>$bbuserinfo['lastvisit']) {
						$userlastvisit=$bbforumview[$forum['forumid']];
					} else {
						$userlastvisit=$bbuserinfo['lastvisit'];
					}
          if ($userlastvisit<$forum['lastpost']) {
            $forum['onoff']='on';
            $forum['getnews']="<a href=\"search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getnew&forumid=$forum[forumid]\">";
            $forum['getnewe']='</a>';
          } else {
            $forum['onoff']='off';
            $forum['getnews']='';
            $forum['getnewe']='';
          }
        }

Now in forumhome_forumbit_levelX_post templates replace this:

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

with this:

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

That's it I think... this will only work if you have v2.2.0.

[SirSteve]

Can you double check the code?

This is mine:

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

not this:

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

Even so, I made the changes with adding the {imagesfolder} to your replacement code and I get errors.

SirSteve, remove ' in second code.

PHP Code:

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