[3.7.X] Display Unread Posts and New Reputation Comments 3.7.002

vBulletin 3.7 Version
Please remember to click Mark as Installed if you use this modification.
Support questions from members who have not marked this as installed will be considered low priority.

Note: The unread posts portion of this hack only works if you use the database thread marking system.

This displays the actual number of posts that are still considered unread by you (and will show up in a 'getnew' search). It also displays the number of new reputation comments since you last checked your usercp.

There is the option to count the unread posts since your last visit, or all posts considered unread. This setting reflects the divider in the 'getnew' search display. There is also the option to disable the unread posts display or the new reputation comments display.

All settings are located in vBulletin Options > Display Unread Posts and Reputation.

Note that this attaches itself to certain phrases in the "welcome" box and therefore will not work if they are not present (or are modified by other code).

Version 3.7.002 adds the option to display the New Reputation Comments counter as a Welcome Box Notification.

To install this hack unzip the xml file and import it using the ACP Product Manager.
