is there a mod that keeps the "unread posts" unread until i press a link to have them marked as read?  I find that im coming to the forum seeing 2 boards with new topics, check the first, go back and the other forum is now marked as read.  Also has the same issue with threads.  5 threads unread, but as soon as i view one, they all become marked as read.

Redirects in 3 seconds.  To reduce flooding.

This might only be a FireFox thing, but the view "last" post button on the left side of the "New Post" search doesn't seem to work, but the view "last" post button on the right side (next to the last posers name) does.

I really liked the old InVision function that allowed you to say "Find All Posts Between X1DaysAgo and Today/X2DaysAgo... Unfortunately it seems the closest thing is the Search, but it requires at least one keyword.



The reason I am complaining is because I did a "show new since last on", which worked great. But when I did a shift-click of each link, and was going to read each one as I waited for some agents to run, etc. well guess what? IEXPLORE.EXE went boom, the opened windows were cremated, and now the PHPBB thinks I already read them. :( So I had to go section by section, and look at the last-post date  :roll:





Anyone know of a built-in function, or a Mod, that allows for more easily finding all-posts-in-date-range?

Is there a setting  to go to the last unread  post on a thread, or am I just missing something?

When 9% say "Poor" (i.e. the lowest rating) you gotta know something's wonky in non-Wonka-land. But the "posts in last X hours" Mod was 100% "Excellent" if I recall :)

OK this one is installed, only downfall is that it does not work with ezHyperShadow because it uses a different menu system.  So if you want to see this, you will have to use a different skin.

Remove Sig/Avatars - This is one mod that will take a bit of work to implement.  It requires SQL modifications and physical changes to webpages.  Don't know if we want to go this far with MODs?



Not a big deal anyway, couldn't use yet as it doesn't work with current version of table structures (SQL does not parse during install properly).

demo: http://www.opentools.de/index.php?page=3 (though it has debug running i think)



This one added, although it will only have a link through the default skin.  Will post the link in the announcements section.
