Did you ever find a useful thread on a bb? Did you want to save it for reading later? Did you have to choosing between subscribing to the thread and clogging your mailbox or adding it to your browser favorites and never finding it afterwards?
The problem has been solved!

With this hack, you can create your own personalized favorites menu within the bulletin board itself. You can add both posts and threads to the favorites. You can access the favorites from your usercp homepage. You can also specify a custom name for your favorites entry. It will also display latest 5 threads and posts in the nabar... See screenshots for more.

If you like it, do not forget to click INSTALL

The hack is free, however if you like that hack, feel free to DONATE (paypal it using my email which is written on top of this post)

Great hack...although there's a problem:

From 1.0.1 install text:
Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I'm receiving this error after running on mysql:
error number: 1064
error desc: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'dateline` int(100) unsigned NOT NULL default '0'
)' at line 6

Cool idea, I'm surprised this hasn't been done before.

You should always use TABLE_PREFIX though. You never know how people's databases are set up and they might rely on the prefix.

Suggestions: When you click on "Complete List of Favorites" link in navbar, if there are none, can we say it, instead of looking at a page and wondering what that is supposed to be?

never mind, I forgot to put the conditionals

overgrom.com - that is vb2. besides, I never heard of that board.

Thanks for positive comments

The favorites links in navbar do not display on vbadvanced pages. Can you tell us what the globals names are? We need to add them in vbadvanced settings.

Found them. Needed to add those in vbadvanced settings:ermm:

lastfavpostbit
lastfavthreadbit

and for those with vbaLinks, you need to add those in your construct navbar function in includes/functions_links.php

global $lastfavpostbit;
global $lastfavthreadbit;

and finally hardcode the showthread.php and showpost.php in the global.php

[b]Update to 1.02:
[*] Fixed comma error in the table creation query[*] The hack now uses TABLE_PREFIX

Update is fairly easy, for the update instructions are included.

I noticed the comma problem as soon as I ran the queries, but was able to fix the problem myself(yahoooooo :P).

Ahh sorry to jump in the conversation like this.. overgrow.com been around since the first days of vB and they had a very similar hack, just like they had the karma hack since the early days of vb2.. although shebang(the owner) did not want to share it for free :P

So, thanks a lot Dark Visor for sharing, great hack, great instructions..

Although I would prefere if the coders put comments before and after the code we have to change, add, or replace for easy detection if mistakes are made - Just a thought, don't take me serious :P

Wow, I'm typing too fast, I think I had way too much coffee!

Once again great hack, ahh! Dark do you think this would be possible to be intergrated using the AJAX system? this would get rid of the ADD ENTRY template and maybe others.

T_Montana,

Read the upgrade instructions carefully. It tells you to run another query.

About AJAX: Sorry, but I have no experience in making AJAX. I'll have to research the subject further before I can implement it in my hacks.

I like the idea of a favorites hack but the subscriptions page make it all a little redundant. Why not just pull the thread subscriptions data and display as a drop down?

Because, M1th, as the hack description states, nobody wants to subscribe to a lot of topics and get flooded just because he wants to read it later. Besides, you cannot subscribe to posts.
