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.

He changed my config file and database name, so I was working in the wrong database,.... two days of worrying for nothing,
thx anyway
I asked before, but it may of been lost in this huge thread.
Anyway, is there any chance we can set limits to daily thanks? I have a few users that are starting little cliques on my site thanking each other over and over.
Maybe do something like:
Max Thanks per day:
Max Thanks per thread:
Max Thanks per hour:

I dont think i would release such options but you should be able to do it very easily with the hook/plugins in the functions of this hack.
im sure the answer you are looking for would be on that page somewhere. because it has the error at the top of the page, and you can see what exactly is displayed on that page. So maybe it doesnt like when certain things occur on a page?
also here is another problem im having, which is the reason i upgraded ^^
BUG
The delete all of a users thanks feature in the admincp is not working. it says it deletes them, but when i refresh the page where that user had thanked everyone, their thanks are still there.
is this occurring for anyone else? because it is not doing anything on mine.
here is a screen shot to show that it is processing it, but then when i check to see if the thanks are gone, they're still there.
Abe1 Can you please help me. I have the same problem
I have a question - I did search but couldn't find anything like this. Is there a mod that will display say like the top 4 members along with their avatar with the most thanks for the month or week?
