[rellect] Likes Summary

[rellect]

========================================
Description:
========================================

Liked content is usually more interested to the user to read.
The current likes-counter really easy to miss, you don't give much attention to a little button in the corner.
So I've build this little enhancement. It will add a summary line under each message and mention briefly how many liked the post.
A lot friendlier.

-----
If you installed this mod and/or you want to get support, please "Mark as Installed".
-----

========================================
Compatibility:
========================================

This mod only tested in vB5.1.1, which is as of today the latest stable version.
Installing this mod on a previous version could work, but it's not recommended and not supported.

Generally this should be working fine in all 5.1.X versions.

========================================
Notes:
========================================

There are currently few limitations that I thought to mention before I'll start getting "bugs" reports about them:
1. If you just liked a post, you'll need to refresh to see the change in the line, it doesn't updates immediately by ajax.
2. If you edit a message and saves it, the summary line will disappear from the message until a refresh.
3. Summary line only available in "thread view". If you'll go to "stream view" you won't see it.

I may fix these things in the future..

========================================
How to install:
========================================

1. Upload the content of 'upload_to_root' directory to your root.
2. Make sure that Plugin/Hook System is enabled, it is disabled by default.
3. Reload your site (twice) - this mod uses the Auto-Install feature.

Auto-Install it's a feature that allows vB5 to install addons automatically when all files uploaded.
There is no need to install xml manually.

IF YOU FOLLOWED THE STEPS BUT THE MOD STILL NOT INSTALLED,
TRY MANUAL INSTALLATION BY DOING THE STEPS BELOW.

========================================
How to upgrade and how to install manually
========================================

1. Upload the content of 'upload_to_root' directory to your root
2. Find the file "product_rellectlikessummary.xml" in /upload_to_root/core/packages/rellectlikessummary/xml
3. Go to Import Product in the admincp
4. Upload the xml

Awesome...thank you....

[Mark.B]

Surprised this isn't more popular....it's exactly what's missing.
So, I'm giving it a bump.
Rellect thank you for your mods.

Is this for adding the banner at the bottom to show who liked it, or is it the actual like thing which includes the banner on the post?

Is there a version for vB4 because this looks good?

[ozzy47]

So I've build this little enhancement. It will add a summary line under each message and mention briefly how many liked the post.
A lot friendlier.

There is no default like system in vB4, so this would not work at all. You would need a different mod like this, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=242733

The like button is built-in as part of vB5.
This mod is just adding the line with who liked the post at the bottom of the message.

[Spangle]

Just downloaded this for 5.1.3 Alpha 6 and had to import the XML manually for it to work.

[ARLreborn]

Perfect mod, really simple and informative.... Great stuff ty :)

[rellect]

Just downloaded this for 5.1.3 Alpha 6 and had to import the XML manually for it to work.
Yea it happens.. the auto-install sometimes fails.

[ARLreborn]

I had to put the full directory for the install i.e.

My forum is located at: Apexonlineracing.com/forum/

I had to enter the following in the URL for the install script:
./forum/core/packages/rellectlikessummary/product_rellectlikessummary.xml

Worked perfectly on vB 5.1.2 and vB 5.1.3

Great mod, thanks for this Refael.

[fionix]

error post!

[ozzy47]

error post!

You need to be a bit more descriptive.

[sthacher]

Thanks this is very useful

[oxrageous]

Love this but just had to disable it. When it was enabled, we couldn't view profiles - you'd get an error that said "An internal error has occurred and the module cannot be displayed". Too bad - I'd like to use it.

What is the error that is in your server error logs say?

I can't reproduce the issue using the latest vB5.

At any case, this mod probably won't be updated anymore out of lack of interest.
I will provide personal support and add features per request, as paid service.
Anyone who's interested may contact me by private message.

[Mark.B]

That is a great pity, but perfectly understandable.
I really thought this would be more popular.
I even have it installed on my demo site as I think it's really important.

[DisasterDotCom]

Going through the vBulletin tracker and looking at what's going to be fixed in 5.1.4 and 5.1.5, I think you'll see more stable code soon. This is a great plugin, and I hate seeing yet another developer walk away from vb5. Please stick around!

[DesignMVD]

It does not work in VB 5.1.5

Hope you can fix it.

Thank You !!!

Hey,
This mod wasn't updated for almost a year. No new version is expected to be released.
I may update this for you as a private work, if you're willing to pay for the service.
Contact me for information if you're interested.

What a pity.

Hoped could upgrade at no cost because we are a new forum.

Anyway thanks!

-----------------------------------

Que lastima.

Esperaba pudiera actualizar sin costo ya que somos un foro nuevo.

De todos modos gracias !

[goxy63]

Upgrade please, would like to install it :)
Cant pay everything as my forums dont make $

Rellect thank you for your mods.Thank you for installing this mod on my site Mark B and yes, even though it's years later since your post, I'm surprised this is not popular too.

It's the number 1 mod, in my opinion and really should be a default feature of vbulletin.

Shame it's not getting updated, because it does need tweaking, ie the likes don't show up immediately. But I love this mod and thanks again for sorting it out for me.

Hi, I stopped maintaining this and other mods because there's very little demand for vb5 and therefore it doesn't worth the time.
I'd be happy to improve this mod if someone is willing to fund it..

[Horizon911]

How much rellect?

And what other mods did you do? I went to your website, but you've obviously taken it down.

Working like a charm on 5.2.6

Thanks for this....

[webgeek247]

I can confirm this simple but very effective mod works fine on 5.2.6 as can be seen at https://forums.hosting/forum/other-forums/community-reviews/website-reviews/72-please-review-web-hosting-forum-forums-hosting

Many thanks to the developer for this @rellect -- excellent job!

All the best.

[Manuela]

Works great, thank you!

Would be wonderful if you could add the option to show/display ALL users who liked the post. Right now it shows maximum 3 of them :(

[LFWK]

Fantastic, thank you. Added, and it works fantastically on 5.2.6!

Good! Works in vb 5.4.1

Hi rellect,

There seems to be an issue if you use have this mod enabled and use Blogs and CMS. If I view "/blogs" and "/articles" on my forum, I get the error: "An internal error has occurred and the module cannot be displayed."

I received a database error email and saw the following:
#9 Rellectlikessummary_Api_Likessummary->fetchWhoVoted() called in [path]/packages/rellectlikessummary/api/likessummary.php on line 102
#10 Rellectlikessummary_Api_Likessummary->getLikesSummary() called in [path]/vb/api/wrapper.php on line 217
If I disable the mod, I get no errors whatsoever and Blogs and CMS is working as it should.

Do you know if there is a quick fix?

Thanks,
Rob

Hi,
The "Likes Summary" extension was built for vb version 5.1 in 2014, and was not updated since then.
You are probably running a newer vb version which is not supported by this extension.

Currently, there are no plans to update this extension.
But if you or anyone else are willing to fund the next update, feel free to contact me.

[ringnews24]

Does this work in version 5.5.3 ?

[Ninja04]

Thank you very much. Still works perfectly in VB 5.5.3!
I felt like it lacks a "Like" icon at the starting of the phrase but I added it easily.
If you want to do the same:
Go To Phrase Manager -> Search for "likes this." -> Copy the original text -> Upload a like icon in /images or wherever you want and then add this at the starting of the phrase:
<img src="/images/locationtolikeicon.png"> and you should be good! Thanks developer!
If you want to change the width and height of the image without resizing it in a editing program use this:
<img src="/images/example.png" width=?? height=??> Put your size instead of ??

How about 5.6.3? Anyone using it on 5.6.3?

[carmine3838]

Per vbulletin 4.2.5 non esiste?

Installed on vB5.6.4 with the modification suggested by @Heugabel (thank you!), but I seem to have the same problem as @Clauz. It works on most of my subforums and threads, but not on all. I cannot find a pattern.
