Is it possible to do it for selective forums/sub-forums?
Thank you

Thank you

Per the FAQ in the Overview, No

Q: Will you add a feature to allow selecting which forums this applies to.
A: No.

I'm not a premium member of Andy's, but if this addon allowed restriction by forum, I'd be $25 poorer!

I found bug: if there is only one post text in button to register doesn't work (missing "You must log in or register to reply here." phrase) - only blank button:



if I disable "Only first post" addon all works (english phrase is: "You must log in or register to reply here. "):




I've checked several different configurations again:

Forum with First Post Only enabled, thread with one message - OK
Forum with First Post Only enabled, thread with several messages - OK

Forum with First Post Only disabled, thread with one message - no OK
Forum with First Post Only disabled, thread with many messages - OK



enabled = forum selected in addon options:

So in my opinion problem is here:

because if I disabled this template modification all works great.

@AndyB - will using this plugin mean that the search engines cannot read replies as well?

@AndyB It looks like this add-on is doing some a pretty large and highly incompatible find/replace function in the template mod with the key "FirstPostOnly_thread_view_1". Would you mind changing this to regex, or at cut down on the large find function and use the proper way of adding the code back with "$0 "instead of duplicating the code?

A personal conversation would be more appropriate, don't you think?

Is this going to be fixed?

This still has not been fixed. It needs to be addressed as it’s causing conflicts with other addons due to not following the coding standards.

Glad that this is back, some of my clients are reliant on this, but it’s a shame that XF had to step in and remove the resource before it was brought up to the resource standards.

@AndyB Can this be altered so that it only applies to a certain user group?
