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.

sir, i have installed this hack..i have verison 3.6.8pl2 and customized skin by extreme iphorum...problem is that when ever members press the thanks button they dont see the hidden content till they refresh the page...can u kindly help me plz
I know this is supposedly resolved in 7.2 but I've had 7.2 installed since 25 Jan and I just started getting this error on one thread today:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions_post_thanks.php on line 183
I have re-uploaded every single file, reinstalled but I still get the error on this single thread. Is there any issue where the Thanks on a page can get corrupted in the dB?
I need access to someones ACP that is getting this error. I can't fix it w/o being able to play with the error.
Did you see this thread? I'm running 3.6.8 and, as I stated, it's only happened with two different threads for no apparent reason. I have been using the Post Thank You hack for several months and this error occurred with just two threads very recently. I have the latest Post Thank You hack installed.
Please, if you can give me ACP access, i can fix it. I need the links to the error pages also.
Hi:
I'm currently using version 7.2 of Thanks with vBulletin 3.6.8 One problem I'm having though is deleting all thanks made by a specific member using the Special Action. When I enter the member's user ID (ie: 27668) and press enter, I get the following error:
Any help appreciated. I need to delete that member's thanks, since he spammed the forums with over 50k thanks.
Thanks Abe1. I went ahead and just uninstalled then reinstalled the hack to clear the corrupted stats, so there's not much to look at now. Not sure how the member was able to basically make 50k thanks in a couple of hours, but I was running an older version of the hack (5.x I think) when it happened. It's now running the latest version. He was even able to thank posts in threads that were viewable only to moderators. Hopefully it had something to do with the older version.
well as a "blonde guy" i need to ask..this mod works only in default v bulletin style....?or it can be done and in other styles...and if so can it be done with the "hide tag" involved with the post thank you hack..so that only the guys..that say thanks...could see the hide links..?in advance in black smart skin i see only thanks this...thank you in advance...!!!!
