Thank you very much! Sorry I didn't see that post :o

Great MOD!

I'm running 3.6.7 PL1. I installed the mod and it seems to work fine on my default template, but nothing shows up in the posts on my custom template. The only out of date custom templates found are with my PDA skin. I also installed the additional hook update. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Edit: Tried adding the hooks to my custom template manually. Got the info to display under the rep and got the thanks button to show up. However, if you click the thanks button, it disappears.

canot view button!!!!!!

<i>Did you upload it to all of your styles?</i>

you must be missing $template_hook[postbit_end] (here is were the thanks table is showed. the hook goes (PS this is my postbit_legacy template so it might be different in just postbit use the comments to guide you)
I would suggest you to propely update your templates, since it feels as if they were not completely updated
have a look at this post. Should be at least slightly helpful

<i>Well, you're using 3.6.2...this hack has been updated for 3.6.7. Probably why you're having problems.</i>

/uninstall for now.

Hi,,
I installed v6.2 it on vb3.6.7 with the fix but image is not showing ?!

hi ,

how can I show total thnak you number on main page

hi,
I was using v3.5 of the Thank you hack, and users have given many thanks,
now with the unsuccessful installation of 6.2 it gives 0 thanks for all,
does that mean I have lost all the thanks ?!
can I just reinstall 3.5 and get the old thanks ?

thanks in advance,,

It has been suggested (here) that reuploading all the files and reinstalling everything help

Have a look at this post

The problem is not with thank you mod, but with vBulletin it self, in order to fix it, fread this

It would be helpfull to spicify in which page exactly (forumhome etc...) and exactly which thank you value (poster, thread thanks etc... you want to display. Even then I'm not sure that the variables are available outside the postbit templates

I would suggest you to go to your database, (phpMyAdmin instructions)
enter into (prefix)user table scroll sideways till you see the the "examine" button
press it and now look for the column called post_thanks_thanked_posts and press it twice so it is in descending order. IF its empty I'm sorry, but I think they got cleaned up. Either that or 3.5 used a different name for this column so they are not using the same values. If you installed in any stage of the upgrade, all the thank you tables get cleared up, so it would be a restart from 0.

Something that could work is the counters added for the thank you hack in the admincp.

Thanks Installed :)

Hello,

I've uploaded the files correctly and placed the image file on my every skin and installed the hack then installed the fix but still button is not showing. I've read through a few pages but nothing is helping me. Using postbit_legacy template & vB 3.6.7 PL1. Any solution please?

Only thing left is to have the template hooks added in the postbit_legacy template
read this ^^

Hey man, is this possible>
www.curious-contraptions.com you will see the little feature called "Holler" where the most thanked thread gets displayed on forum home, is that possible with your hack or is just a modified version of your hack???

Iam using VB 3.6.3 and everytime when i press thanks....the whole page refreshes and loads back again.....

can anything be done for this....pls help

Hi,

Thanks. I read it before but didn't get which hook I've to add and where to add in postbit_legacy. Please can you elaborate a little bit?

[S]I just installed this (6.2) on my test forum (3.6.7 PL1) but the button isn't showing up for some reason.

I only have one buttons folder and the image is in there. :confused:[/S]
n/m. I'm an idiot. I was the only user on my test board, looking at my own posts. :o
Off to install it on my live board. :up:



Do I need the template fix or was that just for pre-6.2?



By the way, you've spelt Instructions.txt as Insructions.

[high]* PugWD marks installed. :up:
[/high]

Few minor things -

• I've widened my postbit to allow for longer usernames - where do I edit to get the width of this to line up?
• Is there a way to remove the gap between the Thanks box and the post it applies to?
• How do I move the button to the left of the other buttons rather than the right?

Thanks in advance. :)

Nice mod. I've been after it since I saw it on AVForums.

Hi, i have installed the hack to the letter but cannot see any thanks button in the posts! not sure where i've gone wrong but i have checked over and over and am pretty sure that the install went as per instructions, is there any reason why it would'nt work? I'm on 3.6.5 by the way..

Thanks

postbit and navbar templates are not in this list, but still not working!

Anyone? i'm a newbie and can't really understand technical jargon, just need to know wether or not it should be working, if there is a simple solution great, if not i'll uninstall.

That looks like "digg" system (or something like that it is called) just changed the word I think.

Use Post thanks 6.0 Gold. Make sure you do the template edits, specially the one with the <script>

In order (I hope I don't miss any) you will need the following hooks at the postbit(_legacy) template.
$template_hook[postbit_controls] This one is for the button ^^
$template_hook[postbit_end] This one puts the box table with who has thanked
$template_hook[postbit_userinfo_right] This one is for the info (number or thanks etc)

The template fix is for 3.6.7 because it has a bug. Since 6.2 is designed for 3.6.7 it is very likely you will need the template fix

1? You mean the thank you box? got o the template called post_thanks_postbit_legacy and you will find some line saying
]Edit that XXX with your new value
2? There is, but is a bit complicated (not really, but it involves a cuple of steps, I'll explain them tomorrow
3? In order to have the thanks button on the left, move hte position of the hook $template_hook[postbit_controls]From its current position to just bellow <!-- controls -->

Use version 6.0 Gold and do the template edits as explained in the instructions you will find within

That means that those templates are up to date. However make sure that postbit legacy has the hooks mentioned earlier on this post specially $template_hook[postbit_controls] , navbar ($template_hook[navbar_quick_links_menu_pos1]). And then make sure all the files uploaded are uplaoded correctly, sometimes the fields are not fully uploaded (nothign to do with this hack) but yeh... happens so make sure they are good ^^

Have you checked the database to see if the fields have any info in then or the old 3.5 ones are still in there somewhere?

(PS sorry about grammar and spelling)

Ok, I have ran version 5.3 for a long time, and yesterday I used the "Update Post Thanks Post Amount" option for the counters. It was taking a looong time, about 2 hours, so I just closed my server window.

Now when I tried to backup my database I got this error:

Did I just ++++ up my database? :(

Any ideas how to fix it?

dosnt work on latest Post Thank You Hack.

what will be the code now for to find all thanks?

Mate, if we had this hack on vB.org, you'd have thanks right about now. :D :up:

Thank you very much. What I did is ...

Below this code I put ...

Then ...

After this code I put ...

Then ...

After this code I put

And now this hack is working just fine and looks like the attached image in my forum.

Thanks once again NolF.

Installed today and working well - only one glitch - I get the thanked message twice - above and below the user profile (see attached).

Any ideas on how to fix?

One more query from me -
Is there an easy way to remove the Thanks: 0 & Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts?
Seeing as this is fairly fresh on my board and there are a lot of users who don't actually deserve to have 0 thanks in their postbit profile, I'd like to hide the counts until the system is better established, just showing the thanks in the posts themselves for now.

Cheers. :)

I think you put $template_hook[postbit_userinfo_right] hook twice in your postbit_legay or one already exist. Look for this hook and remove one if you've two.

The name of the upper hook is wrong, it should be called $template_hook[postbit_userinfo_left]

Your welcome ^^

Yes, go to the template called post_thanks_postbit_info and put at the very begining
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6"> (in order for ONLY admins to be able to see it) and put </if> at the very end. That should do the trick, otherwise, just delete the whole content of the template, and when you want to show it again, just revert it ^^.

http://www.yoursite.com/post_thanks....=findallthanks is the new code ^^ the difference is that it now uses post_thanks.php to do the search instead of search.php

OK, seems it was way easier that I had imagined ^^
Simply go to post_thanks_postbit_legacy
find <div style="padding:$stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px 0px 0px">
and remplace the highlighted with 0
you will get <div style="padding:0px 0px 0px 0px"> as result ^^.
Why? if you go to all style setting you will find one which says
"Table Cell Padding (pixels) and its value is 6 (by default) therefor 6 pixels spacing above ^^

IF leforo.com is your site, it looks like it is working, so I don't think you have badly screwed your database.
I'm not a database expert (I wish I knew more) but this line doesn't look right to me
SHOW CREATE TABLE post_thanks; SHOW and create? I know create table makes a table called that but then also show?. Besides if you already have a table called that I don't think you can recreate it... And also if you are doing a backup why would it be creating a existing table?

Lets wait for the experts to explain, but from the looks of it, the forum seems fine.

Awesome. Thank you once again. :cool:
