Modification: Mark Threads As Read

Version: 0.20

Author: xandra

Support: Fuzed Themes

This will automatically mark threads and forums that you've read and also gives you the ability to manually mark them as read or unread. The info is saved in a cookie, so threads will retain their state across sessions.

Usage:

• you must be logged into your site to use this mod
• a thread will automatically be marked as read after you've visited or posted a message to it
• a forum will automatically be marked as read when there are no unread threads left in it
• to manually mark a thread as read or unread, click the image that indicates the thread's read/unread status
• to manually mark an entire forum as read or unread, click the image that indicates the forum's read/unread status

forum
main.php

Step 1: Upload the contents of the php-files folder to the appropriate directory on your site.

Step 2: If you have not modified any of the above core files on your site, you should be able to use the included files without any problems. Check the mod folder to see if there is a folder that corresponds with your php-fusion version number. If so, upload the contents of that folder to the appropriate directories on your site and installation will be complete. If there are no files included for your specific php-fusion version or you have modified any of the above files on your site, you will need to modify your existing files using the mod instructions below.

The instructions below are for PHP-Fusion v6.01.6, but may work on other versions.

Colored Code: Throughout the mod instructions, some of the code is colored red and some blue. The colors show the code changes made for this mod... red is the code that's been removed, while blue is the code that's been added. This should help you figure out what needs to be changed if you have previously modified some of the lines used in this mod.
