[AJAX] Post Thank You Hack

[Abe1]

Hi, I really need that function even if it's not perfect yet. Would you please show me how to do it? Thx a lot.
It would be really painful for users since it wont mark threads as read ever.

[Exitilus]

I downloaded the Beta earlier in this thread ... have their been any updates to that file? I lost where that thread was *L*

[rjmjr69]

Abe any news on the GOLD version yet bro?

Keep up the good work. Post Groan almost done as well?

[Abe1]

Almost ready. I'm just finishing with the post groan update, will release one more RC and then Gold hopefully.

[VBDev]

It would had been really nice to say who was the first author of this hack ! :(

[redtailboa]

Feature request:

Limit the amount a user can thank in 24 hours.

Great hack btw!!

[NolF]

It is probably going to late to add my suggestions (if you ever have the intention to put them) on the next release but it would be good to consider adding a couple of features to both Thank you and Groan hacks.

IMPORTANT I would add on the user profile a search options to find out which posts X users has either groaned or thanked. I had I look my self but the query would be too complicated for my level :(. This is important, because immature users tend to abuse from the system either over thanking or over groaning (specially the second one). This feature would make finding this guys much easier.

Another interesting option would be allow X user-groups (defined on acp) to delete all groan/thanked (in one post) instead of hardcoded.

(this one might be in this upcoming version but still...) Number of groaned or thanked posts updated via AJAX.

Add a confirmation when you are going to delete all the thanked or groaned from one post.

In my forum I also added a nice little feature so u can compress who has thanked or groaned a post, this way, good topics are not interrupted when a post is thanked/groaned. (Couldn't get it to use just one image to compress and decompress the table, still... it works xD) [see attachments](PS sorry the buttons are in Spanish, one says "praise" (green) and the other "criticize" (red) and the Chinese things go with the site topic)

Another thing (if reputation activated) I've came to notice is that when you give a thank or groan to a post, afterwards if you try to give reputation to it you get an error message saying this post has already been given reputation, but if you give the reputation first, then you can thank or groan. Maybe this could lead to a db corruption, maybe is harmless, or it was done in purpose so you can do both ^^.

It would be cool to use decimals instead of whole numbers for the reputation feature, put I guess it requires a lot of db changes and of the system it self which would make it a pain in the ass to do.

-------------------------
Besides that, the hack is a joy to have. Will be anxiously waiting for the new versions ^^

[Abe1]

Post Thank You Hack 6.0 RC5 Released in this Post.


This is hopefully the finial release candidate for this version.

Some bugs fixed.
Hooks (plug-ins) added around the hack to make it easy to play around with the hack and make your own mods.
Integration with Post Groan Hack 3.0 RC1.

Some template edits changed.

[Abe1]

Feel free to suggest locations of hooks.

[rjmjr69]

Do we have to do the template edits again? For upgraders

[Abe1]

There were a few changes I think. Just look them over to make sure.

[rjmjr69]

Thanks installed

[rjmjr69]

I can not seem to find any but I did them all over thank you very much. So post groan is done?

[NolF]

Just installed both hacks (groan and thanks), they seem to be working perfectly [3.6.5]. Love the new functions and admin options :P

thanks Abe ^^

[RS_Jelle]

A suggestion for the post_thanks_button template: hide the whole HTML code instead of hiding the button with the display:none CSS code. This saves a bit of bandwidth and generates smaller pages. You can also speed it even more up when you replace the template conditional with and if statement for the eval('$post_thanks_button = " ' . fetch_template('post_thanks_button') . '";'); code in the postbit_display_start plugin.

I need the button there so if you remove your thanks the button comes back.

Aah, forgotten that :D

[Quantnet]

Is there a way to find out which post a user thanks yet ? I believe I asked this a while ago but not sure if this feature is added to the new version.

[Abe1]

Version 6.0 (04/06/07):

Totally re-wrote hack - please redo all template edits
AJAX code moved to a file.
templates are cached in showpost
NEW - Option to delete all of a users thanks.
Post thanks actions moved to files.
New ACP options.
Index the PostID column in the post_thanks table
If you delete a user, all this thanks are deleted.
When you change a Username, any thanks he gave his name changes by.
When you physically remove a post, the thanks are deleted.
New Setting - Post Count Needed to Use the Thanks Button
Delete thanks when you hard delete a thread.
New Setting - Ban Usergroups from Getting Thanks
New Setting - Disable Giving Thanks if Post is X Days Old
Much better security checking to make sure a user can use the thank you button.
Any many more changes.

no.

[Quantnet]

Wow, thanks for the new release. Awesome job.

[deezelpope]

Thanks for the update! Do you recommend an uninstall and starting over, or just an overwrite? I apologize for my questions...this is my first update.

[C_P]

Umm Abe, usually your modifications are spot on. However, I had your prior version (did not remove it and simply added or uploaded all your files suggested, overwrote Y in products, and did every single template edit you put in your notes overwtitting existing sections already existing in the templates from prior version...
So far the issues I am having is when I click thanks button it goes away but does not thank. When I click the Find all thanked posts by USERNAME option in profile it takes me to an error page.
Another issue, when you click on Remove Your Thanks it adds the Thanks button back, does not remove the thanks given. When I refresh the page it comes back.
FYI, vBulletin Version 3.6.5
I also went into the admin CP option of this mod and selected to save not changing anything and still same issues

[Tearstone]

So far so good on 6.0. The only thing that did not work for me was:

in SHOWTHREAD:

find:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_post_loader.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
--------------------------------------------------------------------

AFTER place this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
<!-- Start Post Thank You Hack -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/post_thanks.js"></script>
<!-- End Post Thank You Hack -->
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I did not find that line at all in my SHOWTHREAD, although on this one particular site I am still running 3.5.4?

No need to uninstall. Just re-do the template edits. and upload the files and product file.

Please make sure you installed all files in the right place and re-did all the template edits. Also, make sure you revert any Post Thanks templates.

[subnet_rx]

Thanks for the update, this is a hack that my users really love and I have some users where half their post counts are thanks. Anyway, I just installed this and I have a problem I can't figure out. All thanks and groans are posting twice. So, if I thank someone, the edit that puts in "The following users thank you..." is there twice. Where is this located at? Because I have went over the template edits again and don't see where I doubled this up. I do have the new post groan 3.0 gold hack installed also. It shows the same behavior. If someone has a thanks or groan, it shows up twice. Both, and I have four additions to the bottom of the post.

Thank you for the reply Abe. I did this twice now with same results. What am I missing? Can you check your PM please and let me know?

[Tearstone]

Just place it in between the 'head' tags.

k, not sure what that did as I don't see any difference, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed :) Thank you!

[subnet_rx]

Look at the end of the postbit.

thanks for the quick reply. Here's the very end of my postbit:


<!-- / post $post[postid] popup menu -->
<!-- Start Post Thank You Hack -->
$post_thanks
<!-- End Post Thank You Hack -->
<!-- Start Post Groan Hack -->
$post_groan
<!-- End Post Groan Hack -->

I had another idea, could this be due to the post cache?

Possible. I dont know what other hacks you have.

As long at the AJAX works, then you know you put it in the right place.

[subnet_rx]

Possible. I dont know what other hacks you have.

I have several, but how would they affect this hack if I had it working before?

[Abe1]

I have several, but how would they affect this hack if I had it working before?
No clue really.

[subnet_rx]

Apparently, the cache was the problem. I guess since you totally rebuilt this hack, it doubled it up. It's fixed now and working fine. Thanks for your help and the addon.

[subnet_rx]

Hmm, it seems I was wrong. AJAX seems to display it correctly, but once you refresh the thread, it displays double.

[AzzidReign]

Sweet! Thank you for the 6.0 release! I've been waiting for a few of those features now for some time! Much appreciated! Thanks again.

[subnet_rx]

nevermind, I finally found it. <!-- / post $post[postid] popup menu --> was a two different places in my postbit.

looks like you never reverted the template since the upgrade. Please revert the post_thanks_postbit template it.

[C_P]

Stoopid me. I forgot to upload the post_thanks.php file in the forum folder both times I tried this. Abe is a MASTER and it works great! Thank you sooo very much. I wish they would make this base product so we would not have to modify this. ;) Got my vote!

[dbirosel]

Thanks for the great update!!!! :D Works perfectly!

[deezelpope]

No need to uninstall. Just re-do the template edits. and upload the files and product file.

Ok, I can handle this, thank you very much...

Ahhhhh, I see now. I think maybe I should just skip this update...lots of hacks. Thank you for your help and information.

Hi,
After the upgrade the ajax is not working.

I wouldn't call it a bug, since it seems like a problem on your end only. If I can view your ACP I can try to figure out the problem with the installation.

[mktrilogy]

[tobybird]

I've modified this ever so slightly to make it "girly" as my forum is for women. Anyway, I launched it about 10 minutes ago and my members LOVE it. Thanks and great job!! :up:

[cirdok2]

Just 3 questions :o :

1) is it possible to count the "thanks" as replies in the forum home?
2) a post that has been just thanked, doesn't go up, but I'd like it to go up

EDIT: just found this that I guess answers my questions... :(
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1117685&postcount=363

3) is it possible to customize the thanks, allowing users to insert a small phrase? (so they can say "thanks", "good job", "bravo"!", as they wish...)

Thanks :)

For some reason on GARS Comment, I use the postbit template and I'm receiving this error in which I never encountered from this previous post thanks upgrade:

Look in the ACP nav bar at the post thanks options.

Hello.
How can I include this plugin only in certain sections of the forum?

[Hornstar]

I have uploaded a pic to show you what i mean.

see how it has the asterix around the words. that means it is disabled im pretty sure.

I clicked on *[post_thanks_special_actions]* and then put in a user id who had thanked heaps of people for no reason, it said it processed each one fine. but if i put in that userid again, instead of not showing any, it says it processes each one again, which makes me believe it is not deleteing any thanks at all.

How do I fix this, because im not sure what you meant by acp navbar.

Try using the hook post_thanks_function_fetch_post_thanks_template_st art and put something like

and see if you get anything.

Could someone pls help? thanks.

I see you are a pretty big coder. Why not release an add on?
I'm gonna remove my signature ;/

Make sure all template edits are correct. Make sure there are no doubles.

Hi, i did it 2 times and i did not have luck :(

[cirdok2]

Never got such a request before. Added to my list.

thank you! :)

I was trying to add it by myself, but I got lost... :o

[morrow]

I got the same problem... old version was working great, new one doesn't work at all...

Thanks button shows up.
Click on Thanks button, box disappears and no thanks given. Refresh shows thanks button again but no dice on the update showing the thanks...

I think 3 others have had this issue now. Is it a bug or an issue with the mod?

[Dream]

Did you edit your templates? If you did, try reverting them.

By everyone else, we found out it was their problem.

There were a lot a changes in this version. Make sure you go through the install file perfectly.

[morrow]

When you say to revert the templates, what should I revert them to, they are the way they were when I installed the mod. I never changed them. Should I remove them totally and let the new xml update them?

As far as the template edits, I checked and quadruple checked, and everything is just as stated in the instructions.txt.

Files were uploaded to the correct directories.

What did everyone else do to fix the issues?

[morrow]

Fixed... Had to go back to March to find the answer. Had the integrate with Groan hack on... Disabled it and it now works fine.

Thanks.

[Redeyeskull]

Thank you I already installed it and is working perfectly. Very clear instructions no problems at all. Thanks!

[Daky]

Nice script i love it.

Is it possible to make for example when i go to my member profile... there i can see which of my posts are thanked, but is it possible to make in the same place to click on Thanks and see which users\posts i thanked?

Thanks

[romanticyao]

Hello, postthank hack doesnt work with forum that has Add vBGallery to each forum hack applied to it....

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=111868&highlight=vBGallery

however, the rest of my forums works fine as long as Add vBGallery to each forum hack isnt enabled

[Hornstar]

Anyway to figure out why on that page only?

im sure the answer you are looking for would be on that page somewhere. because it has the error at the top of the page, and you can see what exactly is displayed on that page. So maybe it doesnt like when certain things occur on a page?


also here is another problem im having, which is the reason i upgraded ^^

BUG

The delete all of a users thanks feature in the admincp is not working. it says it deletes them, but when i refresh the page where that user had thanked everyone, their thanks are still there.

is this occurring for anyone else? because it is not doing anything on mine.

here is a screen shot to show that it is processing it, but then when i check to see if the thanks are gone, they're still there.

[bjhuang]

it seems like this hack adds one query to each "post". in my showthread.php, there are 15 posts per page. 12 queries without this hack, and 27 queries with this hack enabled.

It should only be one. Any way I can have a look around? Do you have the latest version?

[bjhuang]

i've found some hints.

if there're more than one thanks in the "page", it adds only one query. but if there is no thanks at all for the posts of the page, it adds one query per post.

the problem is that you forgot to set $act to be ture after the db query in fetch_thanks()

I was able to fix these duplicate entry errors by running the query mentioned by VBulletin.com here : http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/mysql_duplicatekey

However, if I apply the same query for the vb_post_thanks table, it doesn't change a thing,
EDIT, this is the query I ran
ALTER TABLE `vb_post_thanks` CHANGE `id` `id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;
i keep getting those erros everytime I push the 'thank you' button.

I'm sure it's data corruption due to server migration, I allready tried to delete the table and import from backup from previous server, but this doesn't help either

I asked before, but it may of been lost in this huge thread.

Anyway, is there any chance we can set limits to daily thanks? I have a few users that are starting little cliques on my site thanking each other over and over.

Maybe do something like:
Max Thanks per day:
Max Thanks per thread:
Max Thanks per hour:

[blue6995]

No clue. When do you get this error?

Whenever I click on the Thank you button - it used to work before I updated the mod

(Maybe an idea for the next version )
I'd like to reward my members who got the most 'thanks', and do this per month (kind of 'member of the month' election)
Does anyone know how I can easily create a list (overview) with the received # thanks and this per month (or week of year) per user?
It should be possible in phpmyadmin with a query, but I'm not a Mysql specialist,...

Something like a search function of this kind in a next version would be very handy... ;)

Fixed deleting all of a users thanks.
A few more tweaks here and there.

Great update! Thank you very much!

But it seems that the member's post_thank_you info are now displaying at wrong place at the postbit page (with legacy mode). As we know, with legacy mode there are two tables in the left column. It now displaying at the second table. Maybe it is because I use the non official style (I use the Element style from vbstyles.com). But how can I make it just like the 3rd Screenshot did?

[beduino]

Save me a lot of editions - again - in postbit/legacy, memberinfo etc etc.
Working fine and with sid's hack too. :D

This is a tiny edit and it would effect any hack that starts using this hook location. It had to do with where you want new buttons placed - to the right or to the left. All hacks should be using the method I use in this version in their coming releases.

Do I have to edit the templates again?
Test it on a default vb 3.6.6 style.

Are you sure you have the $template_hooks in the postbit right now?

[TTG]

Thanks for the quick update for folks on 3.6.6 Abe1 .. installed and works well :up:

Might be a good idea to list the template edits to be removed in the 6.1 instructions.

I just did what Insructions.txt file says after removing all the old template edits.

[TrIn@dOr]

updated with 3.6.6 non standard theme, all ok!!

Ok, I see what you mean now, but no there is not any $template_hooks in the postbit. I have re imported product-post_thanks.xml 4 times (Allow Overwrite "YES"). :(

You can download the version 6.0 and look there or do a template search for 'post thank' and it will bring up all edit locations.

If you dont have $template_hooks in your postbit template then you do not have an up-to-date vb template for version 3.6.6.

I just upgraded to 3.6.6 and also upgraded the thank you hack. I deleted the template edits made with the prior version per the instructions. I installed this update after deleting the template edits made last time. I uploaded the files per the instructions and installed the product per the instructions. Problem is that now the thank you buttons do not appear and the stats do not appear anywhere either. Did I miss something?

Did you update your templates to new changes that vb3.6.6 made?

[RS_Jelle]

When the button isn't hidden, you can find style="display:" in the HTML source code. This is causing a CSS error (empty element). It would be nice to wrap a conditional arround the style attribute to hide it when it's not necessary :)

Nice new release. vBulletin upgrades are becoming less and less painful for a modded board.

Will look into.

I did a install on a fresh installation of vBulletin with a non-default template, the "Thank You" button doesnt appear.

Well use the history feature to match the template up with the original so you can see what you are missing.

[dope15gd]

Can you try viewing it on a default vb 3.6.6 style?

That seems to be the problem. I reverted everything, but I am missing that hook so that is the problem. I'm going to look into getting the hook fixed.

thanks

I did not test vb3.6.7 yet, but if this happens, then it seems like a vb problem. The hook should not be kept from one postbit to the next. I will try to check it out later.

[rjmjr69]

I looked at the templates for the new install and they are all EMPTY? Maybe thats why this dont work? I lost all the thanks and the button members are heated.

What hooks are being placed and where? I dont see anything placed into any template

This is so annoying. I should have just kept the old one installed. Why this is not working is beyond me. I checked on the default style its not working there either.

[beduino]

I have same problem - lockeAG and Zagis - after the upgrade. Uninstall the [lovely] 6.1 and reinstall 6.0 gold
Everything is ok, now
all the best

I hate to reinstall the old one but doesnt seem like anything is being done with this release.

[TTG]

3.6.7 doesn't seem to like this addition and it was working well on 3.6.6.
I now have the same problem as listed above.

[Abe1]

To all those with vb3.6.7, I have posted a vb bug here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/project.php?issueid=22069

You can keep tabs on it.

If you want one simple way to stop it now,

open the file includes/class_postbit.php
Find and delete:
, $template_hook

[LockeAG]

yes it works , removing that variable...

but why they put it there, it should hava a function or was a mistake?

[redlabour]

[Dream]

Changing this back.
For now you can keep the file edit. It will be removed in future versions.

An other small bug report: when you use the "Delete All of a Users Thanks" feature and enter the user id of a deleted user, you get a database error (vBulletin 3.6.6).

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.6:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT * FROM post_thanks WHERE postid IN () ORDER BY username ASC;

MySQL Error : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') ORDER BY username ASC' at line 1
Error Number : 1064

When you delete a user, all his thanks should get deleted also.

I just uploaded a fix in the first post for someone who does not want to do the file edit and still fix the vb3.6.7 bug.
