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.

Yes, this was due to the post groan hack on our forum. People didn't like the groan so we disabled it. If it was still integrated in the vb settings, it caused the page refresh. Disable post grown and or remove it but make sure you de-integrate it in your vbsettings. If you need a hand feel free to PM me.
Seems that the mod creator isn't answering anything here.
Anyone know how to add padding to this hack or move it over to the far right, past the 'blog this'
Becky, it is OK with 3.8.1 it's just quirky. Disable post grown integration and turn it off and you should be OK.

This is caused by
PHP Code:
$posts = $db->query_read("

WHERE post.post_thanks_amount != 0
AND thread.forumid IN(" . implode(',', $forumids) . ")
ORDER BY post.dateline DESC
LIMIT " . ($vbulletin->options['maxresults'] * 2) . "
");
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: set_thankscache() in /home/shopcard/public_html/thegioichuavn.com/cv2/newreply.php(1006) : eval()'d code on line 1
1. Function "find all thanked posts" causes full scan, because lack of indexes. Very slow.
2. Unable to remove that link (and access via URL) in setting.
3. It would be nice to have option "disable hack for guests" (to hide all thanks and so on). That's good for SEO.
I also want to remove that option. Does anyone know how to? It's silly really, why would anyone want to do a search to find all thanked posts?
Does anyone know how to import thanks received from VS-Hide Hack Resurrection to Abe1's? Could I just rename the column "thankedcount" to "post_thanks_user_amount"?
