Post Thank You Hack 7.7


About this hack:
One of the biggest problems on forums as you may know is 'posts boosting'. There are users who LOVE to say 'thanks' when ever they can. How can it hurt? Their post count goes up, they have nothing to loose.

There are also users who really like to express their thanks to post but don't like posting a post that looks like they're post boosting.

Then comes the moderators who have to delete people's thanks yous so a thread can look readable with out the thanks yous thrown around.

Finally comes the posters of these useful posts. They have no idea how many people really likes their posts if only some people say 'thanks'.

What this hack does is fix ALL these problems - except those users who like post boosting. This places a button called 'thanks.' When a user clicks on it, it places his username in a box right under the post saying that so-and-so says 'thanks' for the post. Every-one who clicks is placed in one box.

By giving your users the extra feature, you forum will look allot nice and organized. It is a guaranteed liking by ALL the members of your forum.

Features:
  • Uses vBulletin easy Product installer/updater/uninstaller

when posting thanks can you make so a special icon appear on the forum sections thread, since its better if to know who that just used the thank you button

Backing out the reputation given is probably going to be hard. The hack adds rep to the original rep system, and is not stand alone. I would presume the only way to back it out would be manually. As far as controlling rep, you might consider lowering the rep amount to a small number or even 0.

What else do I need to restore to make the thanks show up in threads and have the thanks counts be correct? Thank you very much!

Run the recounters.

Remove all the code from the button template for each of those styles.

Hi,

I got a problem with the Post Thanks system, it used to work fine but when I updated it to the latest version, now the Post Thanks button disappeared. I don't really know what happened and how to get the button shown on the post again. Can you please help?

When I view source, I see this:

<!-- Start Post Thank You Hack -->

<!-- End Post Thank You Hack -->

So the code of the post thank you hack is missing.

Cheers,
Tung

Did you upgrade using the correct mod? There's a 36x and a 37x mod.

Yes I followed the instruction of the 3.6.8 version. In fact, it worked after I upgraded, however, now the button disappeared.

What should I do now?

Is Post Thanks turned on in your AdminCP?

By the way, you're posting in the 37x Post Thanks thread.
