Here's what it adds to the bottom of this topic when I'm able to view it.  You can customize which groups see it and how many they see.

Michael, could you please tell me how i could add an collapse / expand button to the table, default setting collapsed?
That would be great!


Thanks in advance

[Michael]

In order to do that, source code edits to topics.php would be necessary to keep track of the expand/collapse state.

Or, I could have chosen to update the source file in this mod, that works too.

Just upgraded this to 1.1 to add the expand/collapse feature, as well as a setting to choose which forum it displays in.  If you purchased 1.0 and want the upgrade, let me know.

Great Mod   , upgrade works (as expected) to 100% and without any edits. Live preview can be found here.

Cheers Michael and thanks again for filling another request in an ultra short response time!

Glad to be of service

Awesome mod, as always!

However, I just installed it and only found two settings. Maybe I'm just confused or missing something, but is there supposed to be a feature and/or setting where you can see what members read the topic?

[Michael]

No, there is no setting to display which members read the topics in the list, the mod just shows which other topics were most often read by people who also read the topic you were in.

[Tom]

You get the Mod as soon Michael is back. I believe you will receive the DL instructions within the next hours.

[Michael]

The terms you agreed to when you bought the mod go over this, there is a minimum 72 hour hold time for all new customers to ensure PayPal has no problems with the transaction.  Once that hold time has passed, I will PM you a copy of the mod.

Looks great!  How will this handle large databases though?  We had to remove a Similar Topics mod immediately after installing it because of the resources it used on our board (over 2 million posts).  How would this mod compare?

[Tom]

Hi Michael,

a short question - have you already/ will you upgrade this Mod to make it available for IP.Board v.3.x?

Regards

[Michael]

The way it determines whether a topic is read or not is vastly different now in IP.Board 3,x, I don't think it would be resource friendly to have this feature anymore.
