Topic: Force Topic Read on Login

[RFD]

Had you previously read the target thread?   

purposely, no.  created the target thread via admin and set it's message number in the mod.

Did you use the option to reset everyone and force to re-read?

no, because as a test all i did was login as a test user who was not logged into the forum prior or during the setting of the forced thread read.

[RFD]

what exactly is supposed to happen when a topic is set for a forced read and a user who's not read that topic logs in?

[SMiFFER]

"Force new users" - only new users?

How about entering the names of users who are forced to read topic x

How about having a simple table?

user,topic
user,topic

?

Probably not something i would do.

[RFD]

if this mod would just work as designed, that would be wonderful.

Thanks!

Works perfectly well for me, exactly as described.

Recently reset the must read list because we changed the agreement, and it still works great

[RFD]

it never has worked for me in 2.0.15

attached are my forced topic parameters and my installed package list ... any help would be appreciated.

Post a new message, change the MUST READ topic ID.

Post a new message, change the MUST READ topic ID.

ah ok, I thought you meant for the already posted topic
I'm using mine as a read the rules and would like to not delete it, but when editing the rules post or updating it, resetting it somehow for people to read it....

[Kindred]

don't need to delete it. Just make it non-sticky and make a new one with the new rules....

Alternatively, I think they "read it" might be stored in the database and could be cleared.
