If you are talking about the "view requirements:reply " option that can be set on a post, it works in the following way.


1.User A posts a message and sets the option.
2.The "protected message" line appears to all users.
3.User B replies to the original message.
3.a) User B cannot read the message on the reply screen
3.b) This means User B must post without reading the protected message in any way
4.Now that User B has replied, User B can read the message
5.All other users are still unable to read the message.

It assumes that you are using the database to store reads.

My guess is that you have it set for cookies.
The option is in plugin.php in the include folder.

If you are using cookies and want it to stay that way, I will whip up a cookie version.

yes, that is fixed in version 3.08, but there still isn't an official link to the first unread post.

Still, I have tried my update listed above on a couple of sites and haven't run into any problems yet.

It just requires a couple of files to be replaced (one php file which creates the link, and then a modification to the template to display it)

Of course, there's no warranty and it hasn't been approved by anyone.

I think the default setting is to send gif images to ie, but ie7 supports png transparency, so you could just change the setting in admin menu -> forum->preferences->image type.

Of course, that doesn't really help the problem of non-transparent gif images.

Re: CBB 3.07: How can I force the Extended DHTML Editor to be the default when posting??

I think that the editors are called:

plain text -> "textarea"
Extended DHTML form -> "dhtmlext"
FCK WYSIWYG editor -> "FCKeditor"
Koivi WYSIWYG editor -> "koivi"


Editor choice is also stored in a cookie, if the user chooses an editor.

I don't have 232, but it works with 308.

Changed files found here, simply replace the default files with the ones in the zip.
update.zip

It turns the folder icon (default dark envelope) for new posts into a link to the first post after the last post you read.

The Jan 2 update 3.08 corrects the link. This should no longer be a problem in future versions.

I'd like to think they read my post, since the two files I named got corrected but viewall.php and viewpost.php didn't (which they certainly would have found with a simple text search of the source)

I guess it is my mistake for not giving an exhaustive answer!

I don't think the feature is included in the update.

The forum already records which posts are read, but it takes a little bit of code to turn that into a link the user can follow.

I'm new here, but if nobody posts a "right" solution, I will give mine.

you can check the default since value in the admin forum preferences and set it to 0 for all posts.

There is a gap in posts of greater than 100 days (the default option), so older posts don't show up.
