Add-on Old Thread Warning

[robart]

I had a very handy add-on for vBulletin that would help prevent new users bumping old threads



Would this be difficult to implement? I'd be happy to pay for the development and have it available in the Resources for free.

I have no idea if this still works on the latest version but maybe try, if it doesn't it's a good start for someone to make it work

Don't forget to read the 'read me' file, there is a very small Template edit needed to be done on your style

Ok, I was bored so I just installed that one from my link
Template edit really simple to do
And it all works as it should
There you go robart, saved you a bit of money

No idea about that, I know waindigo did one back in July:

But that doesn't do the same as what the OP wanted, the one I linked for him, tested out and works does what he wants..

@W1zzard just release a version too; https://xenforo.com/community/resources/tpu-show-warning-when-bumping-old-threads.3913/

It actually replicates the functionality of requiring the user to acknowledge they are bumping an old thread.

I've submitted some improvements to the author to update it to being fully phrased and switched to template modifications rather than template hooks.
