Wery good work.....i had add a small addon to colour also the unread topic title
In viewforum_body.html i modified this

Code: Select all

<a href="{topicrow.U_VIEW_TOPIC}" class="topictitle">{topicrow.TOPIC_TITLE}</a>

in this way

Code: Select all

<a href="{topicrow.U_VIEW_TOPIC}"<!-- IF topicrow.S_UNREAD_TOPIC -->style="color:#FF0000;"<!-- ENDIF --> class="topictitle">{topicrow.TOPIC_TITLE}</a>
