Post Thank You Hack 7.4

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
• Uses AJAX technology so your users don't have to refresh when they thank.
• Places an easy to use button next to the edit button
• Separate looks for postbit and postbit_legacy

Would anyone be able to clarify the upgrade proceedure from 5.3 to the current version? Do I need to remove all the template inserts done previously?

No files need to be removed as far as I remember. All template edits must be removed though. Install the new version and the fix.

Sorry for asking question again but i confused so clarifying my query so you can answer my query.

THX IN ADVANCE.


============================
Currently i'm satisfied with 5.3 version but main problem is users cant see hidden content in their next visit if they have clicked thanks..they need to remove thanks and click on thanks again..and thats y i have to enable remove thanks option and some users are removing thaks after gettin hidden content unnecessary...that's bad.have you fixed thaT bug?

only 6.0 gold works propelly on 3.6.4, the other 2 files are for 6.2 and vbulletin 3.6.7 so if you want to upgrade, your only option would be gold.

Regarding the problem with hide hack not working propelly with this hack, I think it would be more a problem of the hide hack instead of the thanks hack, since the purpose of the hide hack is be compatible with this hack, and that doesn't seem to be happening

Hi,
I have a weird problem with the addon. First it was working just fine, than we had a problem with the sql server, due to a other script and after we fixed everything, I'm now getting the following emails telling me, something is wrong:

Ok, and how do I fix that?
Maybe I should just re-install the mod. But is it possible to save the data already entered. (The amount of thanks and thanked?)

thanks,
cayne
