Would it be possible to add the base Invision link on the last_post (/?do=getLastComment) on the date of the last user post?

Sure. I uploaded a new version (1.3.3)

Another very nice designed plugin. Does it work fine on cellphones?

The changes are mostly for the desktop view.

Should be nice to have a phone view. In my community, more than 80% of the visitors access by phone. Thanks!!!

Hi @opentype. This is a very nice work, well done. I have just one issue. Is it possible to invert the images of the person creating the topic and the last poster ? By default, the image of the last poster is over the image of the person creating the topic. I want the opposite effect. Thanks.

Hi @opentype. Sorry to insist and bother you about this request but can you tell me if this modification is possible or not ? And if yes, how can I handle it ?

[opentype]

As explained on my FAQ page, I cannot help with customizations. The support only covers the features listed on the product page.

@opentype Thank you for the update for 4.5 

This is one of my favorite mod.

Sorry, the plugin only affects the regular forums, not the Q&A type. I just clarified that in the product description. It hasn’t come up before. 
If you can’t use it because of that, I can ask IPS to issue a refund. 

[Stuart B]

Still a great plug-in .. enchances forum format .. shame ACP does not have such controls as standard ... any chance of updating in near future to inc Q&A type ... cherry on top!

There seems to be an issue with Enhanced Forum Views 1.4.0 after I updated to PHP 8.0.15.

I am seeing a strange error that happens when you go to the last page in a form category:

https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/5-coping-with-celiac-disease/page/642/

But if you go to the 2nd to last page, or any other page in the category, you don't get it:

https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/5-coping-with-celiac-disease/page/641/

I have tested this out, and if I disable Enhanced Forum Views Disabled1.4.0, this error goes away, and the last page in my category works, and does not throw an error. 

Here is the error info:

I investigated this today. It seems to be caused by corrupted forum data, where you have topic entries but missing posts for these topics. 

The best solution would be to delete these corrupted topics. (You can probably recognize them by being dated back to 1970)

PHP 8 has a stricter treatment of errors, so the forum view would still work in earlier version, but the underlying problem exists independent from the PHP version or my plugin. 

[sadams101]

Thank you for your reply. When you say that I might recognize corrupted forum posts by dating my forum back to 1970, do you mean changing my server time to this, which might cause many other issues, or do you mean just the time in the ACP for IPB? I do have a test site, and could do this to figure it out. Also, after making the time change, how would this help to find those corrupted posts? 

I know this is far beyond any support you might offer for this plugin, so thank you in advance for any help!

No, I meant just going to the last page in the forum, as you have done before, and checking the dates that are listed there for topic creation time/last activity. 

[sadams101]

Ok, I did go to the end of each forum, and in 4 found and deleted what looked like corrupted posts...3 of which were dated 1969. This did fix the issue with your plugin throwing the errors, so thank you. However, the only question remaining in my mind is, why would your plugin throw this error, but not the default IPB skin?

Because the plugin needs to load additional content from the topics, but if the expected posts aren’t there, it breaks. 

[sadams101]

I have found another issue with Enhanced Forum Views. When going to page 404 of a forum, my site is throwing the following errors when the plugin is enabled, but the errors go away when it is disabled:

Version 2.0 of ‘Enhanced Forum Views’ has been released with a new ‘Above the Fold’ mode, which drastically removes the clutter above the posts in the topic view. Unnecessary details are either removed entirely or moved to the end of the topic.

The moderation actions menu must be used from the end of the page. The bar to select entries is still in the same place.

Hi @opentype, thanks for the fantastic app. It looks fantastic, but I am running into an issue due to my forum structure. Some of my forums use the combined/fluid view, but the plug-in breaks on those forums. Would you mind taking a look when you can?

Thank you.

What’s the problem exactly? I’m not seeing any problem with fluid mode.
