1.0 - initial release
- Upload everything from upload folder to your forum root (where index.php, forumdisplay.php etc. are located).
- Install and activate plugin in ACP -> Configuration -> Plugins.
- Configure it.
- Postbit - add
class="post_anchor" href="{$post['postlink']}#pid{$post['pid']}" title="{$post['subject_title']}"to the starting post URL and<a name="bottompid{$post['pid']}" id="bottompid{$post['pid']}"></a>at the end of postbit and postbit_classic templates - Showthread - add:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var autoposturl_newclass = '{$sanitized_class}';
var autoposturl_bbname = '{$sanitized_bbname}';
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->asset_url}/jscripts/auto_post_url.js?ver=1"></script>to the <head> section of the showthread template
Note 1: the class specified in the setting needs to be manually added to global.css or an other stylesheet that covers showthread, e.g.:
.autoposturl
{
background-color: #CFC;
}Note 2: changing the URL may not work in older browsers, you can replace the commented code in jscripts/auto_post_url.js with history.js or anything similar if you need support for them
