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.

I have a problem with this mod after upgrading the forums and upgrading the mod after that. I've attempted to uninstall the mod and reinstall but with no luck.
What happens is when the hack is active all users (and admins) see is the Login screen asking uers to login. This only occurs at the postbit level. The templates have been reverted but no joy.
Much better than the reputation system that comes stock.
I set it to give people 1 rep point per thank you... This REALLY keeps good vibe sup on a forum, and makes the community better for all! Thanks, Abe1!!!!!! Or more like Honest Abe1!!!

So true. Mine being a dog site I changed the phrases from Thanks to Treats, so now the members give each other Treats. They love it, and its a great way to show which members are contributing.
I have moved my cPanel server to another host, everything is working fine except the navigation settings link of Post Thank You Hack and some other hacks like that, when i click on "Post Thanks Settings" its getting blank.
I've re uploaded all files and product, but no result, can you guide me how to resolve this problem?
I have some problem with the counter of our thanks statistics.
Our forum have a automatic prune and this delete posts every day to clean up.
All the thanks that is given to people, will be also deleted in our thanks statistics.
But i have set this option out:
Quote:
Do you want to remove user's thanks count when you delete a post/thread? Setting this option no will make it that a user's post thanks count does not go down if you delete a post. You will have to delete the thanks before you delete the post/thread if you want the post thanks count to go down. If you use the post thanks recounter, any thanks given that were deleted will not be counted.
What is the problem ?
Can someone help us with this problem. ?
Hi every one, i have this question, incase a post with a 1000 or more users Thanks, then that post page showing very long down, that be slowing down, any thing to fix that problem ? such as Collapse its or some ? Thanks
