*installed* Thanks for the cool hack! I have a custom navbar so I altered the code to make it work for me. I changed the plugin code to:
(let me know if you want me to delete this) This way I could just insert the $unanswered variable where I needed the link to be. Thanks again! ![]() No members have liked this post.

Can you let all usergroups use it be default by removing the zero?

if a user does not have permission to view a forum, will a zero response post still show up in their search?

No, unfortunately not, having the zero basically blocks everyone. You will have to add every usergroup you want to see the link.

![]() If the user is in a usergroup that does not have permissions to see a forum, then unanswered threads from that forum will not show up for that user.

My drop-down only appears under "Search this Forum" but not also under "Search" on the top nav bar.
Is this correct behavior of the mod? Thanks No members have liked this post.

Also this hack uses a template hook that is associated with the search drop down menu in the navbar, so it is impossible that this hack would show under Search this Forum (unless someone moved the template hook to that location and changed the plugin location), and in closing, that means that you are using my Search For Unanswered Threads By Forum hack and not this one. Btw, click Mark as Installed in my Search For Unanswered Threads By Forum hack thread please.
