Or, if you don't need to change the font, just edit the phrase to make it shorter, e.g., "Thanks for this post from" or "Thanks from".

$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]

Actually, there are two, one for a single thank you and one for multiple thank you's:

• post_thanks_user_says
• post_thanks_users_say

Ypu'll probably want to edit both of them to ensure consistency.

No doubt it's in the eye of the beholder, but even one character in that line takes up as much vertical space on the display as the entire phrase.

However, making the font smaller makes a big difference in the amount of vertical space being used.

I didn't read all posts so I'll just let you know this hack is causing an error on thread inline moderation, see here.

thanks

Don't post just to say "thanks"... click the frickin' button! :D

Recently did an upgrade from 3.8.4 to 4.0.2 - and do you know what the biggest concern was to my community? WHERE IS THE THANKS BUTTON! HA!

So, the only issue I have? I came here too late to see you post that we shouldn't UNINSTALL when upgrading and only disable - well TOO LATE.

So my question - I still have access to the old database - and the forums - is there a way for me to grab the data from the old thanks numbers and import them to the new?

Probably whistling dixie, I know.

I got database error any one can help ?
