Topic: List of User Names who have viewed a topic?

I'm using PunBB for a closed group, and there have been times I've wanted to be sure that a member has viewed a topic.  (I know, sounds like "Big Brother".)

Is there a way to build a log of each topic view, and then link it to the view count number on the list of topics?  This would be an Administrator function only...

It's possible with a mod if someone wants to build it.

In lieu of this, you could always scan through your Apache logs to see if a member's IP has viewed a topic.

I tried going through the logs just to see, and I can find it...  But it is a lot to sort through for a once-in-a-while need.  It wouldn't be worth it for me.  I have more to learn before I tackle a modification like this if no one else has already done something like it.  If I ever do, I will let you know.

I don't think you could make this as an AMP mod, it would require actually modifying some of the current pages. I presume it wouldn't be difficult.
