MOD Purpose: This MOD allows you to show the number of active topics in the Active Topics link.
Active Topics (4)
This MOD does react to the user, and only shows the number of active topics the user has access to. It also adjusts when the user changes the "Active Topics Since" selection in active.asp.
Be aware that this MOD adds additional database hits to inc_top.asp, which is used in nearly every Snitz page. I've personally not noticed any performance impact from using this MOD, but you should be aware.

I thought I had this working in 3.4.02 but some people reported a problem. oddly enough they were only XP visitors that experienced this when logging on to the forum. It worked for me on Windows 2000 IE/NS/OP but on my other computer XP Pro I was able to duplicate the error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'
Type mismatch: 'getNewMemberNumber'
/forum/inc_func_common.asp, line 1810
Line 1810 in my code reads:
if ChkForumAccess(ForumID, getNewMemberNumber()) then
maybe I am not clear of the way ChkForumAccess works??
I need to install 3.4 on my test box so I can speak with authority. But, that only thing I can tell you about that error is that "getNewMemberNumber" must no longer be a function in 3.4. Check the inc_functions.asp for that function and I bet you won't find it.
