vB 3.7 version of this hack here: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=172155
Force Users to Read a Thread 2.0 About this hack: This hack allows you to set a thread as 'must read' by your members. Right now, if you make a post and want all your members to read it, you have no way of enforcing it. This hack will give an error message similar to the one you get when you need to change you password, saying that the admins want you to read a certain thread before they continue using the forum. Once a user reads a thread, they wont be bugged to read it again. You can set all usergroups or just certain onces that must read a thread. You can set to site wide or just some forums. Option to Force Guests This hack added one query to every page on your forum a member goes to.
Version 2.0 (03/05/08):
Please post your comments or suggestions for this hack. I read ALL posts. MAKE SURE YOU CLICK INSTALL! You will get an email when a new version is released. Pictures:

This hack is great but it is forcing some mebers to read the thread over and over again.
I thought that once they read the thread they were done. These guys have to re read the threads every time they go to a new forum.. No members have liked this post.

you got to be kidding my you know what a <if condition=" tag dose in a template right?? you know something like <if condition="ExampleNewPost"> click here to see your new posts <else /> there are no new posts </if> Something like that but for this mod i want to do the same type of thing just have things seen or hidden depending on if the person already read the tread cant be too hard to understand No members have liked this post.

I believe you're asking for something outside of the scope of this modification. Perhaps a few more examples of what you'd like it to accomplish would help us understand what you're getting at. As it stands now, you choose the areas the person can view without being forced to read the thread. If they enter an area (or forum) of your choosing, they will be forced to read the thread to continue. If I'm understanding it correctly, you want people to be able to access certain areas, but sections of templates will be hidden until they read the thread (i.e. they can enter their PM box, but not be able to view PM content until they read a thread)? Depending on your implementation, it simply might be better to force people to read the thread upon entering the PM area (in the example above) instead of trying to get fancy by allowing limited access.

This is a great idea for a mod, thank you! Unfortunately I'm running into the problem where people are being forced to read a thread even though they've already read it. Where is the option to show people this notice only once?

Sorry, I haven't seen if it is possible to 'fix' this... if a member is in the middle of submitting a new post when you mark a thread as a Forced Read one, if they preview their post it will force them to read the thread.
To go along with that, if someone Submits a new post at that time, they are forced to read the thread and their post is not actually submitted. I preferred the "areas" instead of forums (i.e. UserCP, Index, etc). No members have liked this post.
