UBB 6.0 shows the last post by in the main page but in the forum page it doesn't ?

Yes, this is missing as a standard feature but is very easy to hack in.

public_forum_page, line 300-330 - there's a $this_html block in which $total_replies is printed, then an if block deciding the next alternating color, then a $this_html block in which the date and time are printed.

Between the If block and the second $this_html block, insert the following:

my $doextra;
my $page_total = int (($total_replies + 1) / $vars_display{HTMLDisplayMax});
if (($total_posts + 1) % $vars_display{HTMLDisplayMax}) { $page_total++; }
if ($page_total > 1) { $doextra = "&p=$page_total"; }


Then inside the $this_html block, use this string to print out the user who made the last post with a link to it

<a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=$in{f}&t=$one$doextra#$last_post[1]">$last_post[2]</a>

Now you need to add the anchor to the posts -

public_topic_page - sub topicrow

my $row will be assigned, starting with a table.

Inside the second <td> will be a font statement - insert the following between the <td> and the <font>:

<a name="$thisline[0]"></a>

That should do the trick.

Note that this is based on B6, not 7, so the line numbers may be a bit off. Please use your brain and eyes to search for the proper areas to place the modified text, don't come back here for help.

I like his, its nice and simple

Mine is easier, Charles' is more to my liking cause it links to the post, I'll have to see if I can combine the two.

You can combine Charles hack and mine for a ONE very easy hack, I will document it later in the other thread by updating my text file. Basically all you have to do to mine is add the anchor to each post from Charles' and then a href that anchor, but I'll put I'll get it in that text file a bit later.

A potential problem I see with this hack is that it shows the member's login name, instead of their display name. Unfortunately, UBB stores the login name only with the thread data.

Slurpee adapted my code and combined it with his own to fix that in another thread - use his version, not this one.
