http://opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php GNU General Public License v2 Adds a 'View unread posts' or 'You have no unread posts' link on the index page (and, for subsilver2, each other page). Also adds a 'Mark post as unread' link at the bottom of each post and a mark pm as unread link at the bottom of each private message as well as a folder in the private messages part of the UCP for unread pms. I have included extensive author notes in a separate file called author_notes.txt that appears in the contrib/readme_files folder. Please read that because it gives lots of information about how to customize this mod and answers lots of questions. Also note that if you have installed the preserve global unread flags mod, you should use the alternate functions_view_or_mark_unread_posts.php file that appears in the contrib/alternate_file folder Alan asinshesq 1.0.5c easy 1200 3.0.4 2008-12-29 1.0.5c cleaned up the code in the mark_post_unread() function (should speed up the db queries) and re-wrote the unread_tracking_info.txt file that appears in the readme folder (if you already have 1.0.5 or 1.0.5a installed you just need to replace functions_view_or_mark_unread_posts.php and re-do the changes to viewtopic that the install.xml file tells you to make) 2008-12-24 1.0.5b revised code to deal with global announcements more dependibly and revised various readme and notes files (if you already have 1.0.5 or 1.0.5a installed you just need to replace functions_view_or_mark_unread_posts.php and re-do the changes to viewtopic that the install.xml file tells you to make) 2008-12-10 1.0.5a added changes to dovetail with phpbb3.0.3 changes fixed bug that caused unreads to show up in unread box even if user is over the pm limit and the unread pm should really only appear in the hold box fixed bug that prevented a forum from being shown as unread on the index page if the only unread post in the forum is the latest post in the forum fixed bug that sometimes caused the link not to toggle to "View your unread posts" when the user is in viewforum for a category or forum that has subforums added code to supress 'move to unreadbox' entry in pm dropdown menu re-did code in functions_view_or_mark_unread_posts.php to properly deal with unread global announcments (but note that this will take an extra query so people with huge boards who want to save a query should read the author's notes carefully) Note: all changes from version 1.0.4 to 1.0.5a have been posted on the phpbb.com topic for this mod on or before December 10, 2008. If you have already made these changes you do not need to upgrade your mod installation other than as set forth in the entry for version 1.0.5b above, but for people who have not made these changes I include an upgrade_1-0-4_to_1-0-5b mod in the contrib folder 2008-02-04 1.0.4 fixed bug that caused unreadbox to display instead of other mailboxes 2008-02-03 1.0.3 added an 'Unread messages' folder that appears right under the 'Sentmessages' folder in the private messages area of the UCP because there is now a unread pm folder, got rid of code that assigned a url to a link for viewing pms that could be added in other parts of the forum added link in search results that appears only when viewing the unread post list and that allows user to mark all forums read (thanks to moifest for the idea) added code so that, when a user's browser navigates to the unread post search list but the user is not logged in, the user gets redirected to a login screen with a message saying the user can only view the list of unread posts if he is logged in (thanks to ChriZathens for the idea and some of the code) fixed bug that could lead to odd behavior when a user used mark post unread feature in different forums 2008-01-27 1.0.2 added a line in functions_view_or_mark_unread_posts.php to update the unread pm count immediately after a user marks a pm unread (rather than waiting for the regular updating that phpbb3 would do later on) 2007-12-25 1.0.1 fixed bug that would, in determining whether the link should read 'view unread posts' or 'you have no unread posts', ignore unread posts in subforums added feature to mark pms unread and to list all unread pms made other small changes required for validation 2007-09-15 1.0.0 updated instructions to reflect the deletion of the bugfix change in version 0.0.4 converted mod script to modx, submitted mod to moddb for validation 2007-07-04 0.0.4 deleted a RC1 bugfix change that has now been fixed in RC2 2007-06-12 0.0.3 fixed small bug that would generate non-fatal php notices when using phpbb in debug mode 2007-06-04 0.0.2 fixed toggling of link text ('View unread posts' to 'You have no unread posts')> 2007-05-31 0.0.1 initial version Additional instructions for changes to subsilver2 Instructions for upgrading from version 1.0.4 to 1.0.5c
