DescentBB

On otherboards using this code I go to, there are different icons next to threads I've posted in. So if it has new posts since my last visit or not, it still has a different icon next to it informing me on my activity in it.

hope that explains what I want. Any chance of either turning that feature on, or hacking it in if that's the case?

You mean like the anti-"view your own posts"?

Stress, if I understand what you're saying, the DBB has that. The pyro icon is yellow or gold when there is activity in a thread since your last visit.

Or do you mean in JUST threads you posted in?

just threads I post in

I think I know what he means. I think instead of the standard gold pyro for threads with new posts, he wants a different color for posts with new activity that hes posted to recently. The forums on dslreports.com use a feature like this, and I have found it to be somewhat helpful. It could be useful here, especially in the tech forum or marketplace.

Okay, the red arrows indicate newly posted to threads since my last visit.

The folders with the H on them are the heavy traffic threads like our fire

The ones I'm talking about are the yellow folders with the black dot. They are the threads I have posted in, and provided I am logged into the server, I will see them regardless if they have new posts in them or not

It's those personaly loged activity icons that I would like here

Being I have no life as of right now, I'll see what I can do when I get some time after work.

Nice, thanks dude

doesnt bother me to have a extra status icon

Maybe a gold pyro with a dor ot something for thereds with new activity that youve posted in, and a blue pyro with a dot for no new activity? *shrug*

I was thinking an orb, but whatever

Shield orb would fit perfectly.

That's a vB feature, but I'm sure there's a phpBB mod out there for this.

Just go to www.phpbb.com and check out the mods section.

this ever gonna happen? (or did it already and i missed it?)

were still waiting

After finals (after next week)

slacker

Now now, before you guys give Topher the business, just remember:

Some T-Shirt I read a few weeks ago wrote:Hard work pays off in the future.
Slacking pays off NOW!

Ok, check boxes now appear next to topics you've posted in (with tooltip of how many times).

Let me know how it works...

Kick a$$! It's done. Thanks Topher!

Wow, nifty.

Cool! The checkbox strikes me as being kind of ugly, though. Why not replace it.. tiny Tri-Fusion blasts!

Or a shield orb.

better?

Nice! Thx Topher

plz add to search results page as well.

I never go to the forum indices anymore, just use the 'view posts since last visit' link, so I don't see the shield orbs at the moment.

That's actually pretty sweet, Topher.
I wonder what Woodchip's pages look like. "malloc: shield orb: stack overflow" or something

This is a really nice feature. I'm going to have to add it to my forums.

The orb looks nice.
