If I use a key, then the option would be avaialable to all members on whatever machine they choose to use to visit your forum.. If I use localStorage, the option will only work on there usual PC, assuming localStorage has not been disabled in their browser.

I don't need anything from you, other than to know that you are OK with me using localStorage to add the option.

Hi Todge,



Before you do anything, let me install this one and get feedback. It may do what they need.



If needed can we revisit?


Thank you,
Shawn

can i apply this to more than one post? so let's say, not just the single last post but also the second last and third last post in a thread?

I'm afraid not.. It's all or nothing.

I can't move one post from one page to another, I can only manipulate the page that is currently being displayed.

Sure.. Try it and see.

If you still want the option added, let me know.

this plugin can only work if you apply it to an entire board which means it happens to all threads in that board?
cannot apply this to specific threads only?

I'll see if I can add an option to do just that.

I would like this option added if possible. Some of my users would like it, some not. Since some use different devices (usually a computer and phone) I think the key option is what we want?

Question: Is there any way that I can get this plugin to not flip the original thread topic's post, but flip all of the replies?  I need this because I am using certain board's on my forum for members to create fan pages for their favorite TV shows and such and when people leave a reply I would like the latest replies to always be displayed on top in the list but since the main post is being used as a fan page I need it to always display on top.

I'm afraid not.. A plugin cn only work with what is currently displayed on-screen, so as soon as your thread spans more than one page it is not possible to display the opening post other than on the page where it belongs.

Sorry.

Todge I absolutely love this plugin! I like it so much that I was thinking of ways to possibly even make it more powerful. 

Just an idea:
Not sure if this would be possible but I was thinking how awesome it would be if you could add an option in plugin's admin area where it allows you to "choose boards"" to add another option below it that would allow you to "choose threads"?  (maybe by thread id?) so that we could flip threads by thread id rather than just by board. In case  we only wanted to use it in certain threads within a board. 

just a thought I had this morning when I discovered that I would have a use for it on my forum. 😛

It's certainly possible, but you would lose the current method of selecting the boards you want it to run on, as if you chose a thread that was not in any of the boards you selected the plugin would not work anyway.

Giving it further thought, I think that the plugin is fine the way it is. 😉

For some reason when I change my theme the flip thread plugin doesn't appear to be working on the new themes and I for the life of me can't seem to figure out why?. I was kind of hoping that you might be able to tell me Todge

I would try looking at the edit options for the plugin to see if the other themes are selected. Go to Admin -> Plugins -> Manage, click the Edit button for the plugin. You should get a popup window. The themes are listed at the bottom. See if any of them are missing the checkmark (this lets the plugin know which themes to run on, so it will not run on any unselected theme).
