Thread Listing by Letter with ABC Navigation Menu
(please nominate for mod of the month)

Should work fine on 3.6x and up

See screenshot: http://www.pingy.us/?v=nav.gif

Special thank you to member 'Dead Eddie' who originally created this and gave me permission (via pm) to post this as a mod.

This will automatically display your forum's threads into alphabetical order when a member clicks a specific letter. It shows an ABC menu on top of the forum that you place the code into.

Tested on a fresh Vbulletin install and VBSEO enabled install. Works fine on both.


Description of MOD:

Member clicks on the letter 'A', it will show all threads that begin with the letter A in the thread title, only.
Same for "#" symbol. Shows only threads that begin with a number 0-9.

Installation / Upgrade
  1. Upload product attached (Go to admincp > manage products) (select 'allow overwrite' if upgrading)
  2. Edit FORUMDISPLAY template and below $navbar place the following code:
Code:
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
