This is brilliant. Great work. Can't wait to add it to my board
Thx for your response!

If you're using a custom theme on your forum, it could be that you have to include the needed variable manually into theme template.

Added an info to first post. Wink

Sorry, but no...this is only a visits counter Wink
Hello,

Good job thank you for sharing.

The plugin works well, it installs correctly and uninstalls properly.
I use a customized theme, and I did not need to add the code between braces, it was well placed!

The remark that AlexanderPep makes is just, why this is not done in MyBB ... not being able to reply in the ads, in the admin panel it is missing in adding an ad a field link of the forum in order to redirect everything Just to a thread, so that on some ads, the user can post a reply message, if needed.

I digress a bit and I go back to the plugin you have created.
I tried your plugin, I immediately realized a slight problem, when a user visits an ad, it is incremented two visits instead of just one: s

Is there a change to make?

Best regards,

Sorry, but I can't confirm that...In my tests the visits counter goes +1 for every announcemet view or page refresh (F5)

But I found another issue in template replacement...it will be fixed in next plugin version.
