thread view is missing

[Dominick]

forum display doesnt show how many users have viewed a thread. Anyone have a good starting point for me in troubleshooting t his?

[Zachery]

if doesnt update right away for server issues, if were talking about vB3 to enable it try the ACP altho id suggest leaving it off

[Gary King]

Wow that's strange, only some of your older threads have the views shown properly, but more recent ones don't. Maybe a hack you installed or something? Try thinking back

[Dominick]

It has gotta be a hack. But I have installed too many to think about which it could be. What php file puts a dbase entry in for viewed thread's?

[Gary King]

Find the following in your showthread.php (this code is where it inserts the number of views for the thread)

PHP Code:

// *********************************************************************************
// update views counter
if ($vboptions['threadviewslive'])
{
    // doing it as they happen
    $DB_site->shutdown_query("
        UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread
        SET views = views + 1
        WHERE threadid = " . intval($threadinfo['threadid'])
    );
}
else
{
    // or doing it once an hour
    $DB_site->shutdown_query("
        INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "threadviews (threadid)
        VALUES (" . intval($threadinfo['threadid']) . ')'
    );
}

it is all intact.

the code is different from what you posted but the backup file and the main file match.

what line number was that in showthread. I am finding it in line 244
