Topic: Trying to add the dot next to the username

Here is my code below. It is for the mod_active_topics mod. I can see the code for the "dot" next to the username that posted earlier but it doesn't show the dot.
Can someone please tellme what I am missing. I am assuming it is in the query but I don't know how to add it.

Re: Trying to add the dot next to the username

I think I got it but can someone please tell me if it is correct. It does work after I modified the query.

$result = $db->query('
    SELECT p.poster_id AS has_posted, t.* 
    FROM '.$db->prefix.'topics AS t 

LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p ON t.id=p.topic_id AND p.poster_id='.$pun_user['id'].' 
    INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f 
    ON f.id=t.forum_id 
    LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp 
    ON (
        fp.forum_id=f.id

    WHERE (
        fp.read_forum IS NULL

Re: Trying to add the dot next to the username

Never mind. I think I got it now. I changed t.id to p.id and it seemed to resolve the issue.
