This hack just inserts the username of the member, who made the last post in particular forum..
So, in "Last post" column, Ultimate.cgi will display something like this:
05-01-2000 03:10
by ilya.
Here's the code:
in Ultimate.cgi find

and right after that add


Now, in each $GutsRow add

right after


I hope UBB won't screw up any of the code

Just found a problem with this hack. It displays a username, who posted the last TOPIC, not just message...
I'll fix it today or early tomorrow.

kewl hack, I'll put it in my board ASAP

Ooops. I didn't think of that, since i didn't have any private forums on my UBB
I'll take a look at it today!

Ok. I think i fixed it. I tried it on my UBB, and it worked.
Here is the code that you need to insert:

Can we get the final version in one post? =) Would make it easier for those just coming here to see the hack in one message.

Thought that was in Ultimate.cgi ?

You need to make all the changes in Ultimate.cgi

hrm...okay. So lemme get this straight. The changes need to be made in *BOTH* Ultimate.cgi AND ubb_library?? Or just one? I'm confused, hehe.

Damn, my bad!!
I'm having a bit of a head ache, so pardon me. All the changes need to be made in Ultimate.cgi only!
Terribly sorry.

The hack worked perfectly! =) Excellent job.

I noticed after I put it in though that since I only have 1 public forum and 7 others, it only shows in the one.

It doesn't matter if anyone knows who last posted anywhere, not objectionable content. Two questions:

#1 and the easy one, how do I make it appear on every board?

#2 would it be possible for you to see if they have logged in and if they have access to the board to display the info only then? I don't think this is really all that feasable since the access requests are done when you attempt to access, and well, checking access ALL the time would be a strain. So, forget it. <G> Unless of course you can think of a way it would work good. =)

So, how can I make it display no matter what? =) thanks!

Thanks, Troy

Ok. I reuploaded the file, and you can get the code for both versions in it. http://www.ubbdev.com/ubb/uploads/lastpostby.txt

Troy, about your second question. I'm sure it's possible to do that, but personally, i don't know how..

Ilya, thank you! =) No problem on doing the other part of the hack, if it was something you could do, great, but I can't do it either. =) thanks again for the hacks you HAVE done though. I like the "smaller" hacks, they make a BB as well.

Glad you like it!!

One more question. =)

Is this hack supposed to display the name of the last poster once you select a forum and have a listing of all the threads there?

If so, mine isn't doing it. If not, nevermind. <G>

No. All it does, is displays it in Ultimate.cgi.
If you want me to add this feature, I can. Just tell me where exactly to place it
