What it is: Advanced Thanks/Like mod is designed to cut down on spam and increase useful content in your forum by using a peer encouragement system - users thank/like each others posts, which can give them access to attachements, post content etc, as well as encourage the thanked person to post more great content.

Importer from Abe's Thanks mod (vB3 / vB4) and vBSEO "Likes" now available in Lite version!



Major Features: Lite

Require a Button Click: Allows you to hide the content of a post, or hie an attachment, until the person clicks a button on the post.

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.

Admin Permissions: Control things such as who can click buttons, require button clicks, what shows in postbit, what options can run concurrently, per forum permisions etc.

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.

Import Thanks: Import script to import "thanks" from Abe's [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack on vBulletin.org. It will work with both vB3 and vB4 versions of this mod.

Import Likes: Import script to import "likes" from vBSEO.


Major Features: Pro

Infinite Buttons: Ability to create new buttons to press! No longer do you need to be limited by Thanks / Like / Dislike.

Auto Collapse Posts: Collapses a post so it doesnt show up by using a formulae for button clicks of your choosing.

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. Members can now see at a glance whether or not a post is helpful, interesting or pointless.

Hi, just installed this and all went well. Set it up per the readme file and CHMOD the specified directory. I see the Thank/Like buttons at the bottom of my posts but when I click them, nothing happens. I checked the source for my version of jQuery and it's 1.7.2. Any other suggestions? Thank you.

Have you checked your error console for any JS errors?

That means the files have not been uploaded correctly.

I am installing this version right now but not sure if I ran into a problem, or just have to wait. I uploaded all the files without issue, CHMOD the one directory and am now trying to install the XML file, but it gets to this part and just eventually sits. The busy signal sits for about 5 minutes on my machine and then stops. Is it still working in the background? How long should this take? My board has about 800,000 total posts

Thanks!

That'll most likely be altering the post table yeah, if your server is slow then it can take a long time to complete the altering of that table.

If the page has stopped loading you can run the queries manually
Code:
alter table post add dbtech_thanks_cache mediumtext
Code:
alter table post add dbtech_thanks_disabledbuttons int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Code:
alter table post add dbtech_thanks_requiredbuttons_content int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Code:
alter table post add dbtech_thanks_requiredbuttons_attach int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Code:
alter table thread add dbtech_thanks_disabledbuttons int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Code:
alter table thread add dbtech_thanks_requiredbuttons_content int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Code:
alter table thread add dbtech_thanks_requiredbuttons_attach int(10) unsigned not null default '0'
Remember to add your table prefix if you use it.
