I'd like to see this as well.

Not very likely this will happen unless Abe1 is reachable and gives permission to reuse his code - vBulletin.org won't allow it:

While what you quote about the rules is true, Abe1 programmed the original mod with many hooks which allow others to made "add ons" for this mod. Nothing is stopping a coder from releasing an add-on to extend the functionality of this mod.

Hi, I absolutely love this hack, is there any way I can put in a notification when a post gets thanked?

In a roundabout way, yes.

You can install Paul M's reputation notifier hack, then link this hack to rep....hey presto, notification of thanked posts.

You may have to play with the wording a bit, i just changed the whole thing to "like".

How exactly does one link these up?

You always make a great job Mark =)

About the hack, I can't find the "reputation notifier hack" for Paul M
There is one for "Acers"
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=244065

You mean this Mark?
If yes, then I already using this hack, so can I use it again with different name? and what should we change?

Your help is appreciated ;)

vB 4.1.5 anytime soon?

all the fixes as well

I was thinking of THIS one, which is what I use, I hadn't seen Acer's one though you may well be able to achieve the same thing with that.

I doubt you can run it twice though. You kind of have to make a decision on your wording, I discovered after implementing "Like" that almost nobody uses Reputation at all, so I changed most of the relevant wording to "Like" instead.

It's a bit of a fudge. You could argue that you could change ALL the wording for reputation to "Like", and then comment out the rep icon completely, making it effectively a Like system only.

Is there a way to change this so it doesn't show the names of who thanked but instead a total number?

In the settings for the hack.

I installed this other hack and it works great with the Thanks hack. Thank you very much.

I'm all for helping support any mode that the author doesn't any more ..
But
all I see in these files version # changes and name changes
all you did was change other than that was change
to
this could of just been posted

Abe1 's name shouldn't of been pulled from the files
and replaced with yours


raicars added the fixes thats channelfuse posted these fixes where for things that didn't work in the mode and you don't see there name in any files, this is still abe1's mods even if he don't spport it..
his code ..

just my 3 cents..

Thanks !!

there is no options to delete thanks from the postbit. How can I fix this?

should be there ..

I am not sure off the top of my head but there may be a option to allow deletion of post thanks

sure if you want

I fixed more than that look closer
his name is still there

nope, I had this mod before and Staff had an option to delete thanks on the postbit but not anymore. There is an option from the admincp but that will delete all thanks or by user.

I thought this will have an option on the postbit that allow me to delete the thanks I dont want :confused:

Since Abe hasn't been online for over a year, I vote that this mod should become "public domain" and be supported by whoever is willing to do so on a non-commercial (free) basis. Abe's name and generous community "Thank-Yous" should be retained.

I'd like to see it be re-released with an up to date version (with all fixes and ported to 4.1.5).

Would the VB.org moderators care to comment on this proposal?

And what should really happen is that a similar functionality should be built into VB!

They won't ever do the "public domain" thing. It requires the author's consent, end of story.

this works like it should https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1737

correct..

There is no way no how that a mod here ever becomes "public domain" without the author's consent, it's simply not legal- a mod author retains rights to their mods.

You could attempt to contact the mod author and ask he give permission or mark his mod "Re-usable code." I have managed to track down a handful of coders over the years who were happy to give permission to let their old mods live on.

Can anyone here get ahold of the developer and get him to either provide a confirmed stable update or at least allow this addon to be re-usable code?

This is such an incredible, popular and useful addon I'm disappointed to see it abandoned.

Pleaseeee?!

this is the working version..https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1731
no need for a update.. it work flawlessly if it will not install just open up the xml file and edit the line posted here in this thread

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1741


anyone can post add on for this mod .. they just can use his code..
not that it needs to be recoded anyway..

working on vb4.1.5 pl1 with out 1 issues in every style

After update I cannot see (Remove all thanks)

There is only (remove your thank)

link me or send me a pm..of your site

Will my existing thanked posts and everything else that's involved with the first post/thanks hack be lost if I upload the new version? How do I ensure I don't lose any existing thanks data when I upload the new version?

unfortunately you must of un-installed before updating .. never un-install a mod if your updating it
I been running this mod since the day it came out and never lost 1 single post thank
when updating.

besure close your board, back up your DB before doing any update just in case something goes bad first..

Just check "Allow Overwrite" when you import the product XML file and you won't lose anything.

I installed the version at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1546 this morning and got nothing but "500 Internal Server Error" when the icon was clicked.

The solution seems to have been changing permissions on forum/post_thanks.php to 644.

Odd how I seem to be the first person in some 35 pages to get this problem. :(

funny default upload to a web server via ftp should set those permissions default..
might be server configuration..
but I assume you got it working ..
thats what counts..

Really? Should I bug my host to set this to a recommended value for vbulletin addons?

you can question them on the matter..

folders should be default at 755 and files should be 644...

so I would contact them and ask why the files are getting set to different permissions..
by the way what was it set to when you uploaded it ..?
