Please ensure you've uploaded all files, because that function is absolutely defined in /dbtech/thanks/includes/class_core.php :)

is there an option of removing the credits which get displayed at the bottom of the pages generated by the post thanks lite mod if I pay for it. Kindly let me know how much needs to be paid and where...

There's a Branding Free licence available @ our website www.dragonbyte-tech.com

vB.org rules prevent me from linking to it directly, though it should be pretty straightforward from there :)

Ok, so let's say I'm buying the Pro version with 3 months updates. After those three months, vB is changing its version from 4.1.x to 4.2.x or 4.5.x. Because of that changing it could be possible to need some changes of the mod aswell. Would I receive those kind of updates after the 3 months period or not ? I think these kind of updates should be included forever... as far as it could appear errors between the mod and the new version of vB.
Upgrades of the mod and other pluses/modifications... should remain for those with active licenses only. But what is about the functionality of the mod should be free.. as far as I bought it sometime in the past.
Waiting for an answer.
Thanks.

I have deleted all the files again
Also uninstalled the plugin

Then I uploaded all again..and still getting:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method THANKS::processEntries() in /var/www/vhosts/xxxxx.com/httpdocs/forum/dbtech/thanks/hooks/showthread_complete.php on line 5

Hi,
very nice mod, just bought the pro-version.

I find two things that could/should be improved:

In the hottest.php action file the defined buttons are listed without checking if they are set inactive:
PHP Code:

$templater vB_Template::create('dbtech_thanks_statistics_statisticbit');
            
$templater->register('phrase'$vbphrase['dbtech_thanks_hottest_threads'] . ' - ' $button['title']);
            
$templater->register('userbits'implode(''$threadbits)); 

IMHO it would be better to list only those buttons that are set active.

Ajax is nice but for those who are not able to use JS there should be a fallback enabling them to use the function. If this is not possible, please consider to insert the whole button via JS so that those without JS are not bothered with a non functional link after each post.

all the best,
Sacha


EDIT: will post it to the pro bug-forum

Unfortunately it would be a logistical nightmare for us to maintain vB compatibility with old versions. If such a time arises, you'd be free to revert to using the Lite version or purchase a renewal :)

I'll summon Iain to this thread as well so he can explain in more detail the business decisions behind it - I simply focused on my part of the business in my response.

I'll change the hottest.php file for the upcoming bugfix version, thanks :)

I don't think the JS change is something we'll rush to do since the vast majority of browsers and users have JS enabled (I assume, as you're the first person in my 8 years of coding that have mentioned it) but if you re-post it as a feature suggestion over at our forum, we'll take it into consideration regardless.

For the future, could you post in the Pro support forum on DBTech? Response times there are much more rapid as I get instant email notif when you start a thread :)

Hello Fillip,
thank you, I posted it in your pro-forum. And yes, I`m used to being the first one mentioning accessibility related stuff. I introduced this topic into the TYPO3 open-source CMS and it took me about 8 years and governmental funding to get things going there ;-). Please just consider that not only disabled users benefit from it. There are also a lot of poor folks behind restricitve firewalls and suffering other technical burdens that keep them from enjoying the fancy stuff.
all the best,
Sacha

Thanks.

As Fillip said it would be almost impossible to pull this off - it would require every version of the mod, from v 1.0 to version X.X to be upgraded every time vbulletin updates.

Not doing this is standard practice with all software, including vBulletin mods for pretty much all companies.


Iain
