Hi Joe, small problem, everything works 100% but as soon as I do the above edit, I get a blank page on any link except for my vbadvanced home page. If I undo the edit it makes no difference until I re-upload the xml file (which I assume then replaces the small plugin), then the forum works again. Any idea's? I'm desperate to have this display within the posts. ;)

any clues how to get this template edit working with vb 4.2 ?

Seconded !!

Nevermind,... FOUND IT !!

OK, have this looking great now inside my post box above the signature area.

Does anybody know of how I can force it down to the bottom to reside just above my siggy area? Just doesnt look right located all the way up under the post text, with a big space below between the siggy.

OK,..figured out how to force to bottom of post box right above siggy,.. in postbit legacy template

find

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['postedited'] || $post['signature']">

add above

Code:

<div class="after_content">{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_messagearea_end}</div>

Of course it still shows up just above edit statement if applicable, but I rather have the box on the bottom but above siggy area. This was the easiest way for me.

I would like to ask for some help on these two things..

1. removing the white space in the like box.

Me too. I have dug n dug and cant resolve this white space issue either.

I'd like to get an answer to the white space issue mentioned above please :)

Have you turned on the template naming in general options in admincp and then looked at the sorce code to see what is being used there?, it could be a <br /> tag or padding...etc in css.

My version is 4.2.0. The Post Thank You Hack version is 7.8.4. I have not changed "Thanks" to "Like", but I've been trying to get the Thanks box to appear inside of the post bodies. I've however only succeeded in getting it to disappear completely. When I reverse my code changes the box reappears but it's of course not within the post bodies. It's back between the posts, since everything has been reverted.

I'd very much appreciate it if someone could tell me where I'm going wrong. Below are the changes I've been making, after which the box just goes away.

I change the contents of post_thanks_box to:

Code:

<div <vb:if condition="!$post_thanks_box == 1"> style="background-color: #f2f6f8; border: 1px ridge #417394; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px; padding: 2px; width:92%; margin: 



0px auto 0px auto; -webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:0px;display:none" <vb:else /> 

style="background-color: #f2f6f8; border: 1px ridge #417394; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px; padding: 2px; width:92%; margin: 0px auto 0px auto; -webkit-border-radius: 5px; -



moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:0px;"

</vb:if> id="post_thanks_box_{vb:raw post.postid}">

{vb:raw post_thanks_box}

</div>

In postbit_display_complete I change this:

Code:

$template_hook['postbit_end'] .= $templater->render();

to this:

Code:

$template_hook['postbit_messagearea_end'] .= $templater->render();

and in postpit_legacy I change this:

Code:

                <div class="postbody">

                        <div class="postrow<vb:if condition="$show['postedited'] || $post['signature']"> has_after_content</vb:if>">

                                {vb:raw template_hook.postbit_messagearea_start}

                                <vb:if condition="$post['title'] OR $show['messageicon']">

                                <h2 class="title icon">

                                        <vb:if condition="$show['messageicon']"><img src="{vb:raw post.iconpath}" alt="{vb:raw post.icontitle}" /> </vb:if>{vb:raw post.title}

                                </h2>

                                </vb:if>

to this:

Code:

                <div class="postbody">

                        {vb:raw template_hook.postbit_messagearea_start}

                        <div class="postrow<vb:if condition="$show['postedited'] || $post['signature']"> has_after_content</vb:if>">

                                <vb:if condition="$post['title'] OR $show['messageicon']">

                                <h2 class="title icon">

                                        <vb:if condition="$show['messageicon']"><img src="{vb:raw post.iconpath}" alt="{vb:raw post.icontitle}" /> </vb:if>{vb:raw post.title}

                                </h2>

                                </vb:if>

And there's apparently no postbit_display_start in this version so I can't modify that.

But why am I not able to move the box into the post body? What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

It would be very nice if someone could provide an adaptation of the modifications herein to function on version 4.2.0, both for the 'thanks' to 'likes' part and for the migration of the thanks/likes box into the message body part. The code within some of the 4.2.0 templates is apparently different from that in previous releases of version 4.

Edit: As far as changing 'Thanks' to 'Likes', it seems that simply doing the phrase search and replace for each of the named phrases in post #1, in addition to changing post_thanks_thanks from 'Thanks' to 'Like' (for the button label), did the trick for me. I only hope I'm not going to experience any complications without having done anything else. One problem I've already noticed is that the 'Thanks' stats field is now labeled 'Like' as opposed to 'Likes'. But if I change the text in the post_thanks_thanks phrase to 'Likes', then the button label also changes to 'Likes' when it should be 'Like'.

Addendum: I've fixed it. I just created a post_thanks_like phrase containing the text 'Like' and then changed the post_thanks_thanks reference (in the post_thanks_button template) to post_thanks_like. Next, I changed the text in post_thanks_thanks back to 'Likes' and everything now displays correctly.

Possible??
