[AJAX] Post Thank You Hack

[jacko_162]

i edited a few templates if anyone is interested in using them;

in template "post_thanks_box_bit"

<img src="INSERT_URL_HERE/thanks_icon.gif" border="0" /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thank[userid]" rel="nofollow">$thank[username]</a><if condition="$date_thank">&nbsp;($date_thank)</if>$virg

Overwrite with the above code and replace "INSERT_URL_HERE" with your direct link to the image file (attached to this post) for example; "http://www.yoursite.com/forum/images/misc/thanks_icon.gif"


Next open up template "post_thanks_postbit"

<div style="padding:$stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px 0px 0px">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead" style="padding:0px">
<if condition="$post['post_thanks_amount'] == 1">
<phrase 1="$post[username]"><div class="smallfont"><strong>$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]</strong></div></phrase>
<else />
<phrase 1="$post[post_thanks_amount_formatted]" 2="$post[username]"><div class="smallfont"><strong>$vbphrase[post_thanks_users_say]</strong></div></phrase>
</if>
</td>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 6">
<td class="thead" style="padding:0px" align="right" nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont"><strong><a href="post_thanks.php?do=post_thanks_remove_all&amp;p=$post[postid]"<if condition="$vboptions['disable_ajax'] != 2"> onclick="post_thanks_remove_all($post[postid], <if condition="$vboptions['post_groan_integrate']">true<else />false</if>); return false;"</if> rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_thanks_remove]</a></strong></div>
</td>
</if>
<if condition="$post['show_thanks_remove_option']">
<td class="thead" style="padding:0px" align="right" nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont"><strong><a href="post_thanks.php?do=post_thanks_remove_user&amp;p=$post[postid]"<if condition="$vboptions['disable_ajax'] != 2"> onclick="post_thanks_remove_user($post[postid], <if condition="$vboptions['post_groan_integrate']">true<else />false</if>); return false;"</if> rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_thanks_remove_user]</a></strong></div>
</td>
</if>
</tr>
<tr><td class="alt1" colspan="3"><div>$post[post_thanks_bit]</div></td></tr>
</table>
</div>


and replace whole template with the above code.

the above template edits make the font and text fit better into most styles.

hope you like

[Hi-Jack]

Well, I installed it and initially thought it was working ok but when anyone clicks on "thanks" the whole page is messed up. I'm sure it conflicts with another mod or so so too bad...

[rrahro]

Cool, Worked !

[FootyFansForum]

Does this work with (vBulletin 3.8.4)

And does it recieve any login token coupon errors?

[benny92000]

Thanks for this!! Everyone on the forum loves it.

Is there a way to see the top thanked users?

[SMXKidd]

I've installed this, everything works except the image. I uploaded it into the right folder; however it's not working.

[mintman72]

I need some help with this one please!!

I've installed it, but the thanks do not get added to the user reputation. Also, they don't show up in the user cp either.

Anyone have any ideas?

[goycarden]

Is it possible to have the same look in postbit-legacy like normal postbit?


I mean this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/10/4.jpg

for postbit-legacy too.

The standard looking for legacy is too high for my style.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/10/4.jpg


Edit:

I've found the solution. For all interested people: Only copy the code for the postbit-thank-template to the postbit-legacy one.

[Cloud2]

Hi, i have got some problem. How i can fix that ?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/09/1.jpg

[TheInsaneManiac]

So what is Use Markup Usersnames?

Also: Ban User, does this make it so the user can not see the add on at all or does it just make sure this user can not receive thanks? Cause I just want a specific user not able to get thanks, but that can still see others thanks.

[decca87]

hi im interesting in installing this but i wish to use it slightly different if that is ok i would preffer the mod to say something else how would edit this lets say for example i wanted it to say cheers instead of thanks looks a good mod i would just want to know how i could personalise it for my needs thankyou

[princeedward]

is there anyone can help me on this error please..everytime i click to give thanks this error will appear below and to the header of my webpage....

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/mysite/domains/mysite/public_html/includes/functions_post_thanks.php(266) : eval()'d code on line 19

thanks and best regards

:(

[uprentiss]

how do i make this centered in postbit legacy

[Cmangum]

Never could get this to install correctly, kept giving me errors. I must be doing something wrong

[Blackhat]

I never gets past the installation. When I upload the xml file it just loads and loads forever

[dilbert]

I have made no changes to my site. This morning it was working fine, now I get the same error.
Were able to resolve this issue?

Thanks

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/error-messages-server.html#error_er_columnaccess_denied_error

This just means that user 'iwsgamin_iwsvb'@'localhost' can't use SELECT command.
Ask you hoster why.
Thanks, I asked my host and the default user does have SELECT.
If I run this query, it works fine.

SELECT *
FROM post_thanks AS post_thanks
If I add a little more back to the query and run this, it still works fine:

SELECT *
FROM post_thanks AS post_thanks
INNER JOIN vB36_userWhen I try to run the full query, that's when I get the error.

SELECT *
FROM post_thanks AS post_thanks
INNER JOIN user AS user USING (userid)
WHERE post_thanks.postid IN (0,17834)
ORDER BY post_thanks.username ASC;

In particular, when I add this back, it gives me the permission error:

USING (userid)
I don't understand MySQL very well.
What is USING (userid) doing, and why is it now causing a permission error?

Thanks

[Ruler68jg]

I am experiencing problems with Post Thank you Hack Mod; the first thing is that I can see the thank you button! And when I try to thank sometimes i can and sometimes I can’t and I get this message”

Ruler68jg , you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation. "

Even when I try to remove my thanks also!
what can be the cause of this ?

[bryanb]

Something weird going on on my board.

I've been using this mod for quite some time now, and I've never seen this before. A couple of times, someone has thanked another member and this appears:

The Following 4,294,967,295 Users Say Thank You to (user's name) For This Useful Post

(I've replaced the "user's name" here.)

Now I don't have +4 billion users, and after removing the user's thanks - the statement remains under the "thanked" post. :confused:

I can't seem to replicate this anywhere. It's only happened a couple of times.

I'm using Thanks 7.6 on vBull 3.71 PL2

Please help. Thanks!

It's been nearly a year since I've posted this - and it's still happening every once in a while. Does anyone have a clue why this happens?

What gives? :confused:

BTW, I'm using vBull 3.8.2 now

still there is no solution ????????

i have the same error

I've had this problem for sometime now - and it's just getting worse. I've reset the counters numerous times to no avail.

Could anyone give me some specific guidance on fixing this? I don't want to turn this hack off since my users are accustomed to using this on a daily basis. Thanks!

Is there anyway that someone - anyone - can fix this bug? I'm begging! It's maddening, and I'm not the only person who has this problem.

Hell, I'll even pay someone to fix this!

I've been using this hack for years, my users are accustomed to it, so I don't want to shut it off. PLEASE HELP!!

Thanks!

(vB 3.8.4)

[squishi]

This must be one of the most popular hacks on vbulletin.
Congrats!

I will consider installing it.

From a SEO standpoint, I might have to modify this a little.
All those links to user profiles are not very good for the search engine spiders.
It's best to hide that box from guests.

[dilbert]

I have made no changes to my site. This morning it was working fine, now I get the same error.
Were able to resolve this issue?

Thanks
For those of you that are getting a permission error, there appears to be a known bug in MySQL that may be causing this.

[pvalderh]

Is it possible to recount the Post thanks after moving to new servers?
We've overwritten the empty post thanks table in phpmyadmin with the backup values, but the post thanks system stil operates as it is a new install.

[nexty]

Can you tell me the name of the "thanks" image cause on my theme I dont have thanks.jpg or somethink like that, so the point is that I dont see any image just a thanks text

[RedHacker]

Can you tell me the name of the "thanks" image cause on my theme I dont have thanks.jpg or somethink like that, so the point is that I dont see any image just a thanks text

[linuxututs]

Worked like a charm on new 3.8.4 board with 3 skins. ( Only one isn't showing Thanks Count, but I know whats up with that )

Thanks,

[HaqForum]

thanks

[RedHacker]

( Only one isn't showing Thanks Count, but I know whats up with that )

What problem...? I had same problem...

[Fenriz]

Is there any chance to rebuild 'user thanked' statistic??

[MagicThemeParks]

To remove the amount of times you have thanked someone and to keep the amount of thanks recieved, edit the following template and replace with;

post_thanks_postbit_info


<if condition="$post[userid]">
<div>
<if condition="$post[post_thanks_thanked_times] == 1">
$vbphrase[post_thanks_time_post]
<else />
<if condition="$post[post_thanks_thanked_posts] == 1">
<phrase 1="$post[post_thanks_thanked_times_formatted]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_times_post]</phrase>
<else />
<phrase 1="$post[post_thanks_thanked_times_formatted]" 2="$post[post_thanks_thanked_posts_formatted]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_times_posts]</phrase>
</if>
</if>
</div>
</if>

Thanks for this! :up:

Was looking to see where to remove that little piece. :D

[Filgga]

Guys,

This plugin is causing SQL errors, especially when editing user (admincp/user.php?do=modify) & am using vBulletin 3.8.4 Patch Level 1 ...seems things are no longer the same.

I uninstalled the product and re-installed, it works but all counts (thanks counts) are starting from ZERO!

[lowlight]

Hi, I have a mobile template installed, and I want to use a simplified version of this hack on it. Would it be possible to just insert a text link into postbits.php? If so, what would I do?

[ghostpt]

It is possible to add a column on FORUMDISPLAY to show how many thank's by post?

Sample:

thread ........................ thanked replies visits
xpto1 ........................... 3 ......... 2 ........ 90
xpto2 ........................... 7 ......... 4 ........ 50
xpto3 ........................... 8 ......... 5 ........ 70

My idea is to completely replace to star voting system with just thanked hack since people use this a lot more than voting.

Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to manually insert text versions of this hack? I'd like to offer basic functionality in a mobile version of my site.

[demonfatal]

Thank you for this great hack!!!

My forum has some posts with 250 or more Thanks, which takes up a lot of space.
PLEASE, How can I add a button to Hide/ Show the Thanks and at the same time, keep the total number of Thanks displayed?
I have tried to add a button in the "thanks_postbit" template, but I have not been successful.
Thanks.

[persian.be]

hi
i have 3 style i can see thanks count in one of them in postbit_legacy but in 2 other style i can't see thanks counti use vb 3.8.4 LP 1

[ghostpt]

Well, I guess all that needed was a little more time to figure it out -- apologies for jumping the gun. In case it's useful for others, here's what worked for me...


Step 1: create a plugin with hook location forumdisplay_query and the code
$hook_query_fields .= ", thread.firstpostid AS firstpostid";
This makes the thread's firstpostid available in threadbit.


Step 2: create a plugin with hook location threadbit_display and the code
$firstpostinfo = fetch_postinfo($thread[firstpostid]);
$thread_thanks_amount = $firstpostinfo[post_thanks_amount];
This makes the number of thank-yous applied to the thread's first post available to the threadbit template.

Step 3: use $thread_thanks_amount in the threadbit template to your heart's content.

I'v managed to do this with search results, using the same ideia with the hooks search_results_query_threads and search_results_threadbit.

Any ideia to do the same with tag search results?
Thanks.

So, we take the code from the "postbit-thank-template" and move it to the "postbit-legacy"? That doesn't seem right.

Will work on vb4?

[Driven By Shine]

Thanks for this its great, Although everything seems to be working well, my thanks "icon/button" doesnt display, i have definatly uploaded it via the FTP but no good, is there something ive missed that may have been covered you could point me in the direction of.

Thanks Chris

[MagicThemeParks]

Driven By Shine, if you have a custom skin, your buttons may be in a different directory. For instance, something like this...

yourforum/images/buttons

...instead of this....

yourforum/newstyle/images/buttons

....so, make sure to upload the buttons to that other directory.

[Driven By Shine]

MagicThemeParks you got me out of trouble yet again.

Thank you ever so much for pointing me in the right direction.

Chris

[Julie]

My users love this, and it works like a charm on 3.8.4! Thanks!

[realmr]

any idea if product will b released for 4.x later on ?

[Sheen]

I have a custom skin, and the thanks works perfectly apart from one thing:

In the postbit in my skin it does not have $user has been thanked $how many times thanked, in $number of posts.

How do I add it?

[Coop1979]

It looks like you should have a template called post_thanks_postbit_legacy

It should include the following (for legacy):

<div style="padding:$stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px 0px 0px">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr valign="top">
<td class="alt2" width="175">
<if condition="$post['post_thanks_amount'] == 1">
<strong><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]</phrase></strong>
<else />
<strong><phrase 1="$post[post_thanks_amount_formatted]" 2="$post[username]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_users_say]</phrase></strong>
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 6">
<br /><a href="post_thanks.php?do=post_thanks_remove_all&amp;p=$post[postid]"<if condition="$vboptions[disable_ajax] != 2"> onclick="return post_thanks_remove_all($post[postid], <if condition="$vboptions['post_groan_integrate']">true<else />false</if>);"</if> rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_thanks_remove]</a>

For some reason mine wont work, It works on some posts then takes me to another page saying I dont have permission etc.. Im admin i have permission to all the forum lol...

Also when I click on the page is reloads it..

Before when i used this hack, it never done that before..

Ive uninstalled it and re installed it three times now

I've been looking for that solution for some time now, for some reason the ajax part of it is not working, i tried to edit the ajax.php no no avail...any info on this would be great (using 3.8.4)

[Deviate]

This mod is awesome, pure and simple! I changed it from "Thanks" to "Like" so it works similar to Facebook.

Did you just do this through the phrase manager? I wanted to do the same thing.

[mgurain]

Hi,
would you (the developer) update this important hack to v4 ?
we rely on it, it is very usefull.

[fatdr]

very good thanks so much ;)
3.8.4 pl1 good working.

[lav0s]

i think is about time you start thinking on porting this to vB4 :)

[Anthon]

some suggestion:
1-it can show how many time a specific usergroup say thank.for example shows how many times admins say thanks to that user's post in user profile.
2-show a specific message if a usergroup thanks a post.
for example if admin thanks a post under that post shows "Admin recommended this post"

thanks alot

[dknelson]

Hi every one, i have this question, incase a post with a 1000 or more users Thanks, then that post page showing very long down, that be slowing down, any thing to fix that problem ? such as Collapse its or some ? Thanks

I saw a couple of posts about this but never any answers. Can this be done?

[xyzmary2001]

Thank you VERY much. Sorry I didn't find it before asking but sincerely appreciate the help.

[Abe1]

For all you who keep asking, yes, I will be working on a 4.0 version soon. I have not started on it yet but will hopefully start any day now. I released my "Admin Log In as User" hack already since it is not as complicated as the post thanx hack. Many, many, many things changed in 4.0 and the hacks basically have to be written from scratch. Writing that hack first showed me a lot of things that changed so I know what to look out for when writing Post Thanx Hack.

Guys, like me, the other coders on the site I'm sure will try to release an update for their hacks. Most of us do these hacks as a hobby so we don't have official time we spend on them. Donations always encourage a coder to work on his hack more and feel like he is being appreciated and not taken for granted.

Before you upgrade to 4.0, make a list of must-have hacks you need. Wait until all of those hacks are updated for 4.0 before upgrading. Don't bother the developers, it will only discourage them from working. They will get their hacks done when they have time.

Honestly, this hack is so impressive, I'm surprised you weren't asked to have it included in the vB4 base code.

Great to hear.
My "must have" list is pretty much your forum signature. ;)

Thanks heaps.

I'm sure that along with many other fans of this modification, I was wondering if you would be updating this plugin for the new version 4 of vBulletin? It would be great to have such a nice mod continue.

That's a built-in option:

Abe1 You did a great work on this hack, it is THE MUST-HAVE hack for our forum.
We cannot upgrade to 4.0 unless you upgrade this one.
Many many thanks to you Abe1.

I'll glad to know if there's an easy way to add the function of sending negative score to the reputation with another button, using the same system.

It should be very simple like adding another funcion, changing the +1 for -1 xD

For all you who keep asking, yes, I will be working on a 4.0 version soon. I have not started on it yet but will hopefully start any day now. I released my "Admin Log In as User" hack already since it is not as complicated as the post thanx hack. Many, many, many things changed in 4.0 and the hacks basically have to be written from scratch. Writing that hack first showed me a lot of things that changed so I know what to look out for when writing Post Thanx Hack.

Guys, like me, the other coders on the site I'm sure will try to release an update for their hacks. Most of us do these hacks as a hobby so we don't have official time we spend on them. Donations always encourage a coder to work on his hack more and feel like he is being appreciated and not taken for granted.

Before you upgrade to 4.0, make a list of must-have hacks you need. Wait until all of those hacks are updated for 4.0 before upgrading. Don't bother the developers, it will only discourage them from working. They will get their hacks done when they have time.

Thank you, I hear you.
However I expect and am sure the next product would be very useful and popular too.

[sortie]

i and our members are waiting for Post thank you hack for 4.0
please start to work...

[reverse1312]

Hello

I love this hack ! :up:

Is there a possibility to make another usergroup than administrators (IE for example super moderators) able to delete post thanks ? (maybe by editing a plugin page ?)

Thank you

[khh]

Great Hack.

Thank you:)

[Dj megas]

I cant see the "thank you" image
What can I do to see it please?
I upload all the files and the prodact.
Regards.

[MagicThemeParks]

Dj megas,

Do you have a custom style or skin? If so, you have to find where the buttons are located and upload the image there as well.

For example: djmegas.com/forum/images/button
Versus: djmegas.com/forum/customdesign/images/button

Hope that helps :up:

[Tanapangarap]

Actually, quite easy. Just disable this plugin:

global_setup_complete

:)
Thanks.

[Dj megas]

For example: djmegas.com/forum/images/button

That actually helped me! Thanks. :)

Hello people . Will this work for Version 4.0.0 Release Candidate 2 ?
Or please send post link to my version.
Thanks.

[cavyspirit]

Not to bug, just want to add a note that this mod is mission critical to my forum and one of the few [must haves' before upgrading to 4.0.

Thanks again for a GREAT MOD! Really, really love it as do all of my users.

[Dj megas]

I try it but dot work

[mmcguire]

I need this for VB4 as well. :)

[wedjcom]

I'd love to see this for the V4 vBulletin... Any progress?

[TheGorf]

I've recently upgraded to the stable PHP 5.3.1. Upon upgrading, this mod (and the Groan, I will double post over there just to be sure) began triggering errors in vB:

Even though I am running the latest Vb (3.8.4PL1) that has the deprecated error handling, and I have deprecated errors blackholed in my php.ini file I still get these errors upon using the "Thanks" button. The error appears to be bubbling up through the vB bits that call the mod. Hope this helps.

[synseal]

Hi and thank you for this, is their any way of disabling the thanks button showing up in specific forum styles. Reason being is the the way one of my forum styles is configured when I add the thankyou button they same way I have with my other styles the button is way out of line with the others so I manually added a button and now there is 2 thankyou buttons, the one I added and the one that shows with the mod which is as said out of line with the other's, I want to disable the post_thanks link for just one of my styles.

Many thanks in advance.

The whole hack or just that thanks button link?

If you remove the link it will still show 'Users who have thanked this post' column.

PM me a screen shot or post here then i can see whats happening. I may be able to do you a button that fits in line with the others!

[cheat-master30]

Installed, and I might also add the groan hack as well.

[ram94401]

This mod works very well except for guests' posts. If you thank the post written by unregistered members, following error message is thrown up.

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in [path]/post_thanks.php on line 57

Anyone faced this issue? Any idea how to fix this? Thanks!

[Painful]

Its working fine so far, just a small problem. It doesnt show the
Post / Thanks stats in Threads. I uploaded all files and
Show Stats in Postbit? is set to YES.
Would be nice to get a fix ^^
Anyway thanks for your work.

[woffie]

Just wanted to also say that my members want this for 4.0

Would anybody know how to fix the message below ? I get that when clicking on the thanks button. Thanks for the help.

What would i have to edit to get the button to show in another location on the post bit template ?

Hi Abe1,

How many sql queries does this mod do in each view for SHOWTHREAD ? or Pressing Thank you button ?

Because sometimes we disable the mod to save some server performance.

Have you contributed to the developer? This mod is replete with the same sentiment.

I was shocked when I supported a mod on this board and the developer mentioned that I was the first person who had ever supported his mod.

I wouldn't be surprised if the developer of the Post Thank You hack can count on one hand how many people have actually contributed to his development.

If you've supported the Mod then great but I would urge any others who want to see this in vB4 to demonstrate this by supporting the developer. This would be the greatest encouragement.

Surprisingly you are very right. Out of over 4500 sites that must use this hack, I got maybe 5 or 6 very small donations. I'm not sure why, but it seems like people think that these hacks are automatic with their purchase of vBulletin. I get countless people still harassing me through PM, requesting when it will be released for 4.0.

The answer is pretty simple. I get $75 an hour for a custom hack I make. I all need to do it make 1 hack that takes and hour, and I made more money then I ever did with Post Thank You hack. Not only is it free, but some of you seem like it is an obligation for me to release it. I do know it is very important part of you website, but hey, I got to make a living and do this in my free time. If you really need it so badly, pay for it. Oh, and BTW, Post Thanks hack takes a lot longer then 1 hour. I must have spent hour and hours on it already upgrading it. I hate vBulletin with passion for what they have done to 4.0. They keep making 1 change at a time to different parts of their code. This time it was the design, by 3.5 it was the how hacks get installed. While this is all fine and dandy for you guys, it's a pain as hell to us developers who have to keep writing their hacks from scratch.

understandable. But in that case do you have any plans for the vb4 when you are free?
and maybe you could enable a premium support, those who donate x amount will be prioritized at first over those who get this for free. So maybe users need to pay x amount per mnth to get faster support from you? that case yo still get money if you continue with this hack for vb4?

[Abe1]

Yes, I do plan on releasing it soon. I am around 50-60% done at least. Basically I have to redo the templates and it's not easy. vB has made it hell now between every variable needing to be declared, to using css for every little part of the design.

[maidos]

well with IB we might see new coding structure in a year or two. if they are money greedy and want to reach for vb 5.0
arent they alreadt working on 4.1?
abnyway thanks alot for not dropping this mods:D much appreciated

Thanks for the candor. If you make this a custom hack that users have to pay for then I'm willing to pay for it. Your post confirms why there is a gap between the theory of open source and the reality of it. I'd much rather pay for a hack that you've put your intellectual property into but am heartened that you're still taking on the work.

[Abe1]

I would like to give thanx for a few of you that did send a donation recently. The latest is that I have the postbit just about done. I finally got the remove all and remove user thanx there.

Now, who can come up with the new images for 4.0? I'm no design artist and I need someone wip up a "thumbs up". While you guys are waiting for this hack to be released, I'm sure you all are twiddling your thumbs.

For those of you who can make one, it has to match the design of the new images at the bottom of each post, like the edit and reply images. There should be 2 images, a reg one and one when a user moves over it, like how vb has it. The size should be the same height as those images. Side to side should not matter as long as it is relative to the others.

As you know the word 'reply' etc is not a button, its the image to the left of it.

The image is so small you lose the actual quality of the image by reducing it to 16x16.

Basically, this is the 3.8 thread, I have this installed and only want updates for this not the 4.0 version using this 3.8 mods update feature. What kills me is how some of you never read and COMPREHEND what your replying to before you do ;) and maybe visit one of your own site links for online counseling before you decide to run off at the mouth next time eh?

I read your post. Let me try to explain it to you in simpler language and in point form so you don't get lost...


I have the 3.8x version installed.

I have purchased the 4.0 version.

I am waiting to install the 4.0 version until the plug-ins that I think are important are updated.

In view of #3, I and many others like me find updates like those sent out by Abe1 to be helpful.

I LOVE Abe's mod, LOVE it bar none but why am I getting update notices about the 4.0 mod when it's from the 3.8 thread HERE... see the links? I'm not lost or confused and help run and maintain over 30+ sites and have more clients I work for on a regular basis and many of them have emailed me asking why they cannot update it? You do realize many do not even know a 3.7 mod will work on a 3.8 forum right? Well it's true and it that confuses people then it explains why they think their 3.8 Post hack should be upgraded yet the way the update was used from this mods thread they believe thier 3.8 version needs updating!!! Nope... not the case right djbaxter? Correct - It's the 4.0 version Abe updated so simply use the 4.0 update feature to send out the update.

It's that simple! Your just overlooking how I meant it completely bud and tried to make me out to be some DA when in fact you ripped yourself a new one not even understanding what I meant!

I mean if we can send out an update on any new version of a mod being released let me know, I'll glady go back and re-announce all of mine I forgot no matter how simple or complicated they can be I just took it as the Update feature was meant for updates of that mod not to promote a future version of the mod when it is coded completely different but no matter how it was intended to be used these actions taken have already confused some, I received 4 emails this morning from clients asking if they should upgrade their Post Thank You Hack... they all run 3.8.x so I had to spend time explaining why they did not need to since it was a 4.0 mod not even related to their 3.8 version.

[djbaxter]

No you did not read, I aplologize for being out of line like you were calling me a moron etc and like to be kind to others so please take thius the right way.

I understand ALL of that, all seven things you listed however I get this...

I understood what you said and what you meant. It was pretty simple.

I also got that email. How anyone could confuse the message sent out is beyond me:

The following modification has been updated (by Abe1) ;

[AJAX] Post Thank You Hack
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showt...hreadid=165673

Reason ;

Update for vBulletin version 4.0 has been released here:

Further, for those who WERE somehow confused by the message:

[fatal1980]

What I find really annoying, is the fact that the same Product ID is used for both versions. So when you check your plugin versions for updates, the 3.7/3.8 modification says 7.80 is available which is not the case.

I suggest that you change the pid to be something like this. For both version.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=productcheck&pid=post_thanks3x

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=productcheck&pid=post_thanks4x

Why? Because now I can't tell when you update version 3x of your module for security updates.

[TheLastSuperman]

I understood what you said and what you meant. It was pretty simple.

I also got that email. How anyone could confuse the message sent out is beyond me:




Further, for those who WERE somehow confused by the message:

They were, I have emails in my inbox, others are too just not posting here for fear of slanderous comments by members who call them morons no matter what they ask O.o

See my point? Your still missing it from what I gather no matter if you say you understand.

3.8 mod = Updates on just that 3.8 mod
4.0 mod = Updates on just that 4.0 mod

Don't use a 3.8 mod you have thousands of installs and more in downloads to send an update to the members who might not have a 4.0 forum after all anyone who wants his mod for 4.0 can easily check his profile, click his title or even check the 4.0 mods area to see if a new version has been released. No matter that some do not even know what the tabs are on here up top, yes I said it I have PM's and posts on an owners forum stating such and before you go calling everyone stupid between the lines by saying you have no clue how they could misinterpret it you have to take into consideration the learning curve for some in regards to vBulletin and the sites you can visit to learn more, the alternate mod sites, the manual... it's a whole lot and all I ever see on here is more negative than positive in regards to helping others and simply pointing them in the right direction.

All I know is to me it seems pretty clear, use your mods thread to promote just that mod not a new version of it, that is up to us and the reason all the resources and links, and articles, and the few helpful members are on here. The link to update the notifications is fine, thanks for that as many might not even know how to navigate back there but again the point is... I and many others received an update on a mod that was not updated per say... and by that I mean this actual 3.8 mod was not updated which is what the update system was intended for, a NEW 4.0 mod was released coded differently than this (or not is does not matter if it were for 3.5 it's still a different mod we choose to post even if code is the same) and should be handled by itself entirely.

That might actually be an honest mistake on Abe1's part.. and Abe I love you too man along with the 3.x and 4.x versions of your mod lol not trying to derail your thread but this is confusing some, I have emails I will forward to prove it and despite how some think many others are morons they are not and simply do not know so you can imagine how confusing this can be at times - I didn't just come in here to derail a thread and argue... to me it's the point of the matter that this has confused some already and to me should not have been used to promote the 4.0 version of this mod.

Mike

[Abe1]

TheLastSuperman, the reason you got an update about the 4.0 is because it was the FIRST time the 4.0 version was released. There are many, many users waiting for the 4.0 version and this is why it was sent from this thread. It was sent once, and it will never be sent again from this thread. People what to know about a new version and that is exactly what I did. Now that the 4.0 version is around, updates to that version will all be in that thread. Basically, since the new version is an update to the 3.8 version, it deserved a message here letting the users know.

fatal1980, If I do use a different product id, then users will loose their current info since they would have to uninstall the other version to install the new version. The update feature wont work if the product id is different. Also, I will not be releasing any more updates in this thread. I will only be coding for the latest version.

[heywho]

I just followed the install directions of the newest release --and On a new install of vB4 Pub, it seems to be running in the forums. Haven't tested it fully, but so far --

GOD BLESS YOU :) :up:

Is there a way connect this with the "comments" in v4B CMS publishing /Blogs.

It's the same issue -- encourage participation, & keep "atta boys" to a minimum.

But, I'll donate for this. Very helpful. TY. Every vB forum I've seen w/ this installed had Much Tighter conversations

[Dream]

not to be a pest, use the v4 mods forum thread for support on that version, not sure this one is still read.

[weindians]

On 3.8.4 ...clicking thanx refresh page... i checked posts earlier about this.. i reinstalled after uploading files again... but still refreshing .

Can't get this working 3.8.4 .... doesn't show the "thank you" button not sure why. Uninstalled..... wish I could have gotten this working.

Uhm, you want to have a different product id when you have two different versions of your module. It just makes sense. You should have done this when you created the 4.0 product.

Some people haven't fully moved over to 4.0 and I'm getting update notifications about my module being out of date. And this is important because if a security problem for your module comes out, I'm sure you would want to put an update out and let people know that your module has issues. Or it will be removed from vbulletin.org

Make sure the Thanks image is uploaded to your servers correct folder for buttons ;) next time be patient before uninstalling and simply disable it until you receive an answer to try ;).

hi

Yes, simply make the button and save it over the one in the .zip file same name then upload onto your server, done.

Uhm, you want to have a different product id when you have two different versions of your module. It just makes sense. You should have done this when you created the 4.0 product.

The image is in the correct directory i've also tried some template changes that i found in this post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1888511&postcount=1752 but that didn't work either, any suggestions?

[floggerss]

How do i change in the postbit, the format of the info that shows you how many thanks do you have or do you give. I mean i want that this text is in big bl;ack.

[flOid]

An option I'm missing is that the reputation given to a thanked user is not based on a fixed number but on the actual reputation power of the user who gives the thanks. Or am i overlooking this feature?

it's not showing.....i upload it but not showing the new image

[Makc666]

As this one died on page 114.
I am posting this one again here.
The bug is also in version for 4.* as the core part was not changed.

BUG

There is a serious bug which has effect on forums which have several languages on them.

The problem is with actions:


Remove Your Thanks
Remove All


The effected file is:
./includes/functions_post_thanks.php

Function is:
function delete_all_thanks($postinfo, $remove_users_thanks_count = true)
{
...
}

Code is:
if ($vbulletin->options['post_thanks_reputation'] && ($remove_users_thanks_count == true || $vbulletin->options['post_thanks_delete_remove_thanks_count']))
{
$vbulletin->db->query_write("DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX ."reputation WHERE postid = '$postinfo[postid]' AND reason = '$vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post]'");

if ($vbulletin->db->affected_rows() != 0)
{
$total_rep_got = $vbulletin->options['post_thanks_reputation'] * $nb;
$set_user_got .= ", reputation = reputation - $total_rep_got";
}
}

Line:
$vbulletin->db->query_write("DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX ."reputation WHERE postid = '$postinfo[postid]' AND reason = '$vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post]'");

Problem part:
AND reason = '$vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post]'

As you can see you use $vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post].

But for every language it has it's own "variable".

For English it will be "Thanked Post".
For German it will be "Dankte Post".
For Russian it will be "Сообщение с благодарностью".
etc.

So if Admin uses English and will hit 'Remove All' then only English reputation comments with points will be deleted. All other languages reputation comments with points will not be deleted.

The same for normal user.
The biggest problem is here!!!


Normal user give "Thanks You" in one Language
Then he switches to another language
He hits remove his "Thanks You"
And the reputation comment with points will not be deleted!!!
So the user can give "Thanks You" Points again and again!!!


I am thinking for two days how to fix this one.

Of course we can try to search for all languages variables but the problem is that language variables can be changeable.
So this is not a clear decision.

We can also remove
AND reason = '$vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post]'
But this will delete normal reputation comments.

The only "fix" for this one I see is to have another table with comments' IDs which where given by pressing "Thank You" button.

This will be the best and as I can see the only one correct variant.

P.S. The same problem (BUG) is for [AJAX] Post Groan Hack.

function delete_all_groans($postinfo, $remove_users_groan_count = true)
{
...
$vbulletin->db->query_write("DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX ."reputation WHERE postid = '$postinfo[postid]' AND reason = '$vbphrase[post_groan_groaned_post]'");
...
}

[Dj Smuggla]

As my question wasent answered, im asking again.

Is there a way to move the thanks button to the left of the quote button?

Llike this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/02/37.jpg

I've search and searched all the templates, but cant find the code for the button...

[Makc666]

As my question wasent answered, im asking again.

Is there a way to move the thanks button to the left of the quote button?

Search in templates for:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

You will find it in two templates:


postbit
postbit_legacy


Will look like:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]
<!-- / controls -->

Now you have to move:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

some about ~20 lines up.

And put it right after:
<!-- controls -->


So it will look like:
<!-- controls -->
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

P.S. Note that
<!-- / controls -->
and
<!-- controls -->
are different lines.

Also!

All other products' buttons which also use this hook will move left.

[R*NightOwl]

I was able to fix the depreciated errors, open "post_thanks.php",
replace

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

with

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);

doesn't really replace or fix the depreciated code, but, at least it works.

It looks like you have not uploaded the files to their correct locations. Re-read the instructions.

[obetyance]

Is there a way to show the NUMBER OF THANKS only rather than the names? Maybe the names can be viewed in a separate pop-up page or somewhere upon clicking them.

Showing lots of names is slowing my server down.

Thanks! :)

hi,
how can we push about Topic?

Thanks!

Hi. I uninstalled the post thanks hack but get the following error when I try to physically delete a thread or post:

SELECT * FROM post_thanks WHERE postid='12345678' ORDER BY username; MySQL Error : Table 'websitexxx.post_thanks' doesn't exist

Where should I be looking to remove this problem?

Thanks!

[NachoTPAO]

It worked fine for a year, but now my users randonmly have over 4 billion thanks (probably the thanks counnter variable's maximun), it's there a way to fix it?

[fatal1980]

I found that I have a few random users with 1-2 posts but billions of thanks also... no idea why..

[TURKCESPIKER]

I have the same problem.Now i have some members which have 4 billions thanks.I asked them if they know anything about this...but they don't...so i hope it will be fixed.

I have vBulletin 3.8.4 Patch Level 2 installed this everything works but the there is no thank you button in the post. Is there a simple fix?

[Simon Lloyd]

I have vBulletin 3.8.4 Patch Level 2 installed this everything works but the there is no thank you button in the post. Is there a simple fix?Are you sure you have the images in the right folder? Is the product enabled?, Have you got the settings right for posting thanks?

Remember unless you turned it on you won't see the thanks button in your posts, or you may have it set for only the first post or you may have a post count restriction set.

I used it out of the box on 3.8.4 and have upgraded to 3.8.5 with no problems.

[Mostjolly]

Question:

Since you CAN'T thank a person in "PM" how do you remove the button?

Thanks!

Yep I put the image under the default and my custom theme ./wrimages/buttons/

Product enabled. I checked settings everything looks right.. Just nothing shows up in the post. i can see the thank you stats in there profile.

Just nothing shows up in the post. i can see the thank you stats in there profile.I think you will find that because you have changed the name of your images file you will need to do that in the mod too! wrimages is referenced in the mod as images.

[vortech1]

Not sure I follow where would I change that?

[Simon Lloyd]

How do you have you variables set up? are you using this $stylevar to display all your other buttons i.e pointed to the style vars, you should have your images/buttons location set in the Style Vars at this point
[I]Button Images Folder
This is the folder containing all the button images for this style.
The location of this folder can be overridden by a language setting

[vortech1]

Style Manager/ All style options / Image Paths / Button Images Folder / wrimages/buttons should that be set some where else as well? All my other buttons work. Just not the thank you image but I put it in the images/buttons and wrimages/buttons to be sure.

[Simon Lloyd]

Maybe qualify the location of the php file then in Styles & Tempalates>Style Manager>YOUR STYLE>Post Thank You Templates>post_thanks_button at the top you will see <a href="post_thanks.php......etc maybe qualify it like this <a href="http://www.YOURSITE.COM/FORUM/post_thanks.php....etc


Just a shot in the dark, without beig able to see that all the files have been ftp'd to the correct places, checking your styles....etc i don't think i can help further, sorry :(

[KrisP]

Suggestion. More configurable buttons, fx. "I Agree", "Best post in thread", "Thanks" etc. combined with vbexperience this could be a powerfull very rating/rep system.

I am actually planning on doing an attemt to hack the core functionality of this myself over the next weeks/months.

[sbs68]

I was able to fix the depreciated errors, open "post_thanks.php",
replace

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

with

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);

doesn't really replace or fix the depreciated code, but, at least it works.

It worX - Genius !

By the way R*NightOwl says this is not the real solution. Somebody knows what is that???????

[Simon Lloyd]

To Take care of later PHP incompatibilities or problems it should read:
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~8192);

[Dj Smuggla]

Search in templates for:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

You will find it in two templates:


postbit
postbit_legacy


Will look like:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]
<!-- / controls -->

Now you have to move:
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

some about ~20 lines up.

And put it right after:
<!-- controls -->


So it will look like:
<!-- controls -->
$template_hook[postbit_controls]

P.S. Note that
<!-- / controls -->
and
<!-- controls -->
are different lines.

Also!

All other products' buttons which also use this hook will move left.

Thanks Makc666 it worked great...

[MonkYZ]

Sorry, i think i posted in the wrong area (4.x version) so i appologise and post it here too:

Abe1, can you please add an option for "No Thanks" or "Thumbs down" ? Something to be the exact opposite of Thanks... because it seems everyone is abusing Thanks on my forum, but bad comments can't be rated. It would be really great to be able to rate down a post.

Thank you in advance and keep up the good work ! This is probably the most used mod on my forum

[magic77]

Many Thanks for this nice hack ...

Any way to force users thank ; before they Download attachments ?

[The Executioner]

I think you can force members to read a thread and then set to a minimum of amount of posts to be made before they can download anything.

[tech@MSE]

We are seeing this db error for some users:

SELECT * FROM vb_post_thanks AS post_thanks INNER JOIN vb_user AS user USING (userid) WHERE post_thanks.postid IN () ORDER BY post_thanks.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 post_thanks.username ASC' at line 1

Also users in Opera seem to be having problems using this hack, while IE appears to always work...

[tech@MSE]

We're also seeing failed attempts to access pages entitled "thanks<postid>" (where <postid> is the actual postid number) in the PHP error logs. They are throwing File does not exist of course. Anyone else seeing that?

Hello,

I have purchased the vS-Hide Hack Resurrection (Expanded Edition) but some traces of this hack i believe making the regular [hide] tag not work....

I am getting errors emailed to me like:

Can you possibly point me in the direction of how i can fully remove this hack? I believe i didnt upgrade it along the way at some point when i updated to vb 3.8.5 and its manually in some of my templates or something...

[Been Told]

Is there ever going to be a feature where a thanked person is notified via the notifications menu when someone thanks them?

[romaszek]

Hi.
As to add "Remove All" for the Moderator?

Thanks :)

How do I make the thanks button visible to everyone?

Currently, only registered members can see it.

Thanks

[bahrainonline]

i have problem installing this, its taking long time and nothing happen, its just hang, any luck on installing it or show me the manual way of installing it

[Welshy2008]

Is there any way that I could Hide the "Find all thanked posts by" and the " Find all posts thanked by" links in the profile, from Unregistered/not logged in, please?

I don't want to disallow access for unregistered/not logged in, for them all, just limitations as to what they can see.

I want logged in members to see everything. Is this possible please?

Many Thanks.

[dpnow]

I have the problem where I can't see the thankyou button. The stats are in the user's profile page, but there are no buttons on posts. Could this be a template issue?

Ian

[dpnow]

I have now installed this on all three of my forums.

At dpnow.com/forum2 I only see the stats on the profile page, nothing else.

On e-group.uk.net/forum the button shows and I see stats on the profile page, but no user stats on the posts.

Finally, on fourthirds-user.com/forum - it seems to work fine! :)

SO just need some help with the other two sites...

[newguy]

I did look, and search this thread, but it is almost 2000 post's long now. So I want to ask something.

I have "Show Stats in Postbit" set to yes. What is the code I would use to to manually edit my postbit legacy template so this info would show in the postbit just like the other information that I have in my postbit legacy? Basically I want to set "Show Stats in Postbit" to no, then edit my template and have the same information look like I want it to.

bump, can any one help?

[cmmguy]

Bug? If a user edits a posts that has a THANKS, the THANKS is cleared. Is this intentional?
