Last Post on the Postlist page was discussed... but it's pretty demanding.... Rick had said:
"Right now it's a speed/query thing. Since we have the ability to change names now, this would really need to be done by a JOIN. Since if you stored who made the last post in the table that might not match up with their current display name. So, it would either require storing the Uid and then adding an extra query to grab the current display name or a JOIN. The extra query is bad as it would add at least 10 queries per page on the postlist screen. And the JOIN would be fairly complex in this script.
Eventually, would like to get this in but I need to make sure that it's done properly so it doesn't make a big database hit."
So as typical of threads..... when it can be done in a good way, without affecting speed or performance... we'll see it. And that's good. We don't want slower forums because of too many features.
If your site isn't that big, and can handle the extra load.... then there's a modification for it at threadsdev.com. I'm using it now myself... I'm sure someone (aka JustDave) will update it for 6.2 once there's a public beta release. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
