Discussionlist with date headers before postings on a certain day

phreak

Hi all,

My forum could visible more easy if the (latest) discussion list would show headers above all the certain topics that were updated on a day. Imagine a list of discussions... all of today do not need a header because they are on top of the list. Let's say 5 topics were updated today, and 8 topics received their latest update (posts) yesterday and some others the day before yesterday.

The latest of these discussions from a certain day receives a small header stating the date. The date (but not the time of the latest post) could then be removed from the discussion item to save more space (mobile view!).

I attached a picture to show what i mean... sorry i can not explain it better.

Greetz, phreak

programming "yesterday" isn't worth the effort to me.

something like this

or this page 1 and page images below.

@phreak, you can contact me if you are interested in a plugin for vanilla 2.1 like above.

I did too!

I made one with clickable with date headings as shown above to cycle down dates on comment and discussion pages.

Couldn't work out a deal with phreak because i don't do invoices, but hopefully a few people will send donations, if they like and use it. I just accept donations. and maybe they will click awesome as well!

the plugin is as is, and it is what is is. see readme.
