We don't generally give release dates unless it's scheduled, as plans further than that are always subject to change :(

I did everything and it worked great but how do I enable this? I can't find it on my Admin CP, though it says the plugin is imported on the Installed Products.

I repeated all the steps, overwriting all the files. Same result.

Help, please

Are you using a custom product manager? If so, please revert to using vBulletin's.

Fatal error: Class 'THANKS' not found in /home/havoc/public_html/Forums/dbtech/thanks/actions/admin/button.php on line 34

Any help with this is appreciated.

DragonByte Tech 12-16-2011 05:35 PM

The solution can be found on the previous page of this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...18#post2274018

Another solution is to change the execution order of the broken mod's admin_global plugin to 65535, though this may still cause problems with other mods so I recommend disabling the mod outright :)

Yea i got it working after disabling that :) Thanks man

Try the dbtech_thanks_postbit_stats template :)

OH, there's something. I didn't do the thanksimport.php step.
I see it there. It has 0 bytes, though. If I open it, it shows "empty."
How do I run it? I see it with my FTP client but I don't know how to run it.
Is it what is causing the error?

If not, is there a way to uninstall this mod without having to restore my entire database?

Your webhost is massively broken, there's nothing I can do to assist you unfortunately :(

I have never encountered this before and nobody else has reported a similar issue, usually 0 byte files means out of disk space.

To disable the mod, add
PHP Code:

define('DISABLE_HOOKS'true); 

to config.php and then disable it from the plugin manager.

I could be wrong but I think the documentation file included is for Activity and Awards not 'Thanks' ? :s

EDIT: Ugh? No unlike for lite version? Sorry guys uninstalled.. That's a pretty fundamental feature - May I suggest you do something like:

Lite = 1 button ("Like") non changeable - no new buttons. But you can like/dislike.

Pro = Make your own custom buttons (and any amount of them) etc.

Good mod just not something I'm willing to pay for the privilege of unliking in ._.

Thanks anyway :)

I'm not sure, but if it is then it can still be accessed from www.dragonbyte-tech.com/docs/thanks :)

I was successful in disabling the mod and everything went back to normal in my database, but I'd still want to give your mod a try if this installation issue can be solved (and then if it works well I'd be glad to upgrade to the paying version).

Any other ideas? Is it a problem with my FTP client? I have had a problem with another incomplete installation using my client (FileZilla), do you recomend another attempt with another client, and if yes, which one?

I haven't used filezilla for several years, and I stopped using it more because of a lack of copy-paste than issues with uploads.

I'm using SmartFTP at the moment.

DragonByte Tech 12-23-2011 10:52 AM

Did you have Abe's Post Thank You Hack installed? If not, then running the importer is unneeded since that's what it does.

To ensure you can see the DBTech - Post Thanks group, ensure your userid is added to the Super Administrators variable as per this documentation page: https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/..._is_superadmin

If it still doesn't show up, then please try re-importing the XML file or re-uploading the files with SmartFTP (to ensure there aren't more 0-byte files creating issues).

To answer your specific question, running the importer before step 3 would result in a different error, as the database tables for this mod would not have been created :)

To address your post pre-edit (it shows up in full in the email notifications we receive to this thread):

I apologise for being short. I don't mean to presume you (or anyone else) are stupid, which ironically is why I'm short.

See, I'm terrible at teaching people. Just ask any of the other coders on our team that I've had to advise. Being that I know what I'm talking about, I have huge problems explaining it in layman's terms (and especially in terms of someone who has less coding knowledge but not no coding knowledge, in the example of our other coders) and as such, every time I go into more details I feel like I'm treating the other party as being stupid.

Hopefully you can relate with your area of expertise.

Again, I apologise, it was not my intent to cause frustration :(

I'm already using SmartFTP latest and highest version as you suggested... things got better each time I re-uploaded but still not perfect since I've been having issues, still). By the way, what option do I pick when I re-do the SmartFTP upload, the one that says Merge, or the one that says something like "skip or overwrite according to internal rules" or something, which is the last one of the four options? I've tried both, in two separate occasions...

The first option, "Copy and Replace" :)

It's another Thanks mod, similar to this but less featured, but very popular. We wrote an importer to transfer people's thanks from that mod to this mod, so it's absolutely not something you should install if you aren't switching mods.

All our mods are compatible with every vBulletin 4.x versions except 4.0.2 :)

I suppose that once this installation is corrected, this is where the configuration panel for the mod will be. But something went wrong on the installation that made it empty, I guess.

The reason why that symbol appears is because the text for the navigation menu is missing. I suggest just uploading the files again with the Copy and Replace option, then hard refresh (Ctrl+F5, unsure what the Mac equivalent is) the AdminCP and see if there's any change.

AusPhotography 12-26-2011 10:51 PM

FYI the install failed for me due to PHP timeout. :(
I manually made the post and user table changes, then edited the install scripts to remove those.
I cleaned up the partial install and re-did it - all ok.

Given a large post table on a VPS the timeout is an issue.

Maybe supply the database changes in a separate script to apply via command line or maybe a command line installation?

Does it make a difference if I install it in my root directory? Again, thank you for your support as I greatly appreciate it.

I do not know if this has been covered or not... I uploaded the files, installed the addon (I can see the stats under the users avatar), have the "Post Thank You" menu in the AdminCP, but I have no options for this mod when I go into the usergroups.

bulldog51981 01-01-2012 07:13 AM

I have recently upgraded from 4.1.1 to 4.1.9 and since then have lost this mod. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with freshly downloaded files and nothing. The {vb:raw thanks_postbit} doesn't show up anywhere and the buttons do not appear under posts. I have set all permissions, button, usergroups, etc and still nothing. I have also tried creating a new (default) style with no mods to make sure that nothing was conflicting with this and still no luck. Can someone please help??

**Update - This problem has been solved by the excellent team at DB Tech! You guys are outstanding! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

I previously had this working with 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 pl1 but now I'm doing the final build of my website now that I know what I want added and what I've tested and works, but this time it's not working. Everything is showing like it should work... all the settings are set up the way I'd done it a few times before but for some reason it's not functioning at all. Nothing happens when clicking on the Like or Thanks ... and the drop-down doesn't work either.

What's been changed with this Mod since I posted in here last August - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...96#post2234896 Whatever it was that changed, it broke it for me. :(

I'm using 4.1.5 pl1

I'm still having trouble using 2 of the lite features:

Quote:

Infinite Buttons: Ability to create new buttons to press! No longer do you need to be limited by Thanks / Like / Dislike.

Statistics: Shows the top 5 people for; Giving / Receiving button clicks.
I cannot find or see where to create other buttons and I tried creating the forum side block and nothing is appearing when activated.

Don't forget to purge the sidebar cache and flush any cache systems like vB Optimise you may be running.

I'll be honest; I have NO idea how to do this haha. I tried searching the answer and the closest area I've gotten was under "Maintenance" and still nothing.

Thanks!

Not working with 4.1.9. The notifications warning doesnt clear after you have read the likes.
Also, the profile tab is missing.

Unfortunately not, because the two parts you are describing are not problems with this mod :(

Notifications warnings clear when you click the link in the notifications menu, however vBSEO torpedoes this link and renders it unusable. I'll assume you have vBSEO installed.

Profile tab missing would be due to a conflicting mod, there's nothing I can do about that I'm afraid.

I had this issue of not clearing back in version 4.1.5 and the only way I could fix it was to uninstall and re install and now it works great and I am using 4.1.9.
I really like this mod it works fantastic for user engagement.

Hi!
I have some issues with vB 4.1.9 PL1. Today I have installed this mod and something is going wrong with this. "Thanks and Like" details are appearing in postbit but there is not button for "Giving Thanks" or "Like". How can I solve this? :confused:
Please check the attached image - that is a screenshot of one thread where thanks details are appeared as ZERO and no THANKS or LIKE button.

DragonByte Tech 01-12-2012 11:06 AM

Please go to your AdminCP and under DBTech - Post Thanks click Button Management, then Edit each button and tick the Can Click permission for the buttons you want people to have permissions to use.

Please note that the buttons will not show up for your own posts, only posts made by other users.

If you don't see that AdminCP group, please add yourself to Super Administrators via config.php

Fillip

sadiq6210 01-12-2012 01:12 PM

I want to buy it Fillip because I really need the pro features but I want to make sure that I can move from Abe's mod to this without errors

Any aprox. date for next release? I promised my users about this mod.
