Title: Going back to see who saw what thread
Post by: rtkane on September 12, 2012, 08:10:24 AM
Quick question... does the DB store which user saw which thread?  For example, if I wanted to go back and find out which user ids viewed a particular thread between 1 and 2pm on August 1st, is there any way to pull that info?  I've done some searches in the DB with phpmyadmin but haven't found any tables that may carry this info.

Thanks

the database stores the thread status for each user...  but it does not store the dates read...   so, no.
you could, potentially (and this would be a HUGE server resource drain) determine which users have read a thread, and to what point in the thread-chain...  but not WHEN they read it.

As I say, though... it would be a huge resource hog, and I don't recommend it.

Thanks Kindred... I appreciate the response.  Pretty much what I had figured, but glad to confirm.
