In vB 5 there was a plug in that was just below the posts that would allow you to jump to the next post or to the previous post. It was really handy to scroll though posts with that. In vB 6 you have to go back to the top of the page and scroll around to find where you were and then go on. It is really hard to believe how many good things in previous versions were ignored in vB6. Just wish vB 5 could have been updated to run on PHP 8.

ust wish vB 5 could have been updated to run on PHP 8.

Why do you think it wasn't? We are running vBulletin on a Linux Host, and here:

php --version

I sure wish I had known that. We have been searching for a replacement for two years. Looks like what you have was just recently created?

No. Pretty sure we've been on PHP 8.x since August 2022.

vB 5.7.5 supports PHP 8.0 and above. Take a look at their announcement.

They started PHP 8.0 support in vB 5.6.5:

If there was a vB5 plugin that allows you to jump to previous/next post, then it would likely work in vB6. Most of the mods I created for vB5 still work in vB6.
