Statistics: Shows the top 5 people for; Giving / Receiving button clicks.

Collapsable postbit stats: Shows how many button clicks a person has given, received etc in the postbit. Admins can determine what statistics can show in the postbit to control sizes etc. The postbit is also collapsable.

Reputation: Add / Remove Reputation for each of your button clicks.

Notifications: Receive alerts when a member clicked on one of the buttons for one of your posts.

User Postbit Config: Lets users decide what postbit stats they want to see.

Additional permissions: Un-click a button. Control how many stats show on the statistics page, set permissions per subforum.

Integrated Controls: You can now integrate the button clicking controls into the post footer, like many of you requested.

Buttons in First Post Only: This allows you to only make the first post thankable. If you forum is based around news, releases or anything similar this will allow your users to easily see the quality of the thread in question.

Button Click Anonymity: This feature will be extremely helpful to forums who like the idea of a "dislike" button, but don't like the drama it brings. Now you can set certain buttons to be anonymous - no one will see who clicked.

Post Colour Thresholds: Ever wanted an easy way for members to tell if a post is helpful or trash? Colour thresholds let you change the colour of posts depending on how many clicks of a button they receive.

i believe what the db team is doing is this if you get the lifetime for vb 4.x.xx

when you migrate to vb 5.x.x they will discount this for 5

its very much like vb you get a liftime for 4.x.xx you have to buy vb 5.x.xx if you choose to get vb5

which to me is understandable

Maybe DragonByte Tech can confirm us what happen' in this case?
Because in short time we will migrate to VB 5.

What LLent said is accurate, you'll have to pay a small upgrade fee to upgrade your licence to the vB5 version.

We currently offer 2 licence upgrades from vB4; Dual Licence and Replacement Licence. The Dual Licence, as the name implies, lets you run the mod on both vB4 and vB5. Replacement Licence replaces the vB4 licence with a vB5 licence.

Replacement Licences are 25% of the cost of a new licence, whereas Dual is 50%.

This mod is not visible on the first post of a topic, but only from the second
Because...??

[DragonByte Tech]

We've had no reports of this from any other users, unless they deliberately edited a Pro-only per-forum setting for "First Post Only".

You could
Admincp/DBTech post thanks/ manage buttons
Delete the dislike one then run maintenance then readd the dislike again

Or login to your hosting cpanel and remove it there

Or give the group this guy belongs to the option to untick dislike

I recommend the last one
