Display Thread Raters: Who rated how? · **Released**: 06-02-2002

Hiyas,

I searched a lot and surprised to see that this hack has never been made so I coded myself: The hack will display who voted how for threads while reading them: You simply put your mouse over the stars icon on the upperright corner of the thread and thread raters will be displayed with the votes they gave. (See screenshot below)

By default hack will display this information to Site Admins only, but I included the instructions to make it visible to Super Mods, Mods or all members as well.

It's a VERY easy to install hack with 2 simple steps and it will not take you more than 2 minutes to install. It's also compatible with ALL vbulletin versions I know.

If you install the hack, please click INSTALL, thank you..

Enjoy! :beard:

Hey... I wish I had seen this earlier! I for one applaud this hack! I have a few embicils that love to run around giving the good posts bad ratings! Going to install it right away! Thanks!

I just installed the hack and it works great.

I can see why people would say hacks such as viewing other's PM's would be an invasion of privacy, but I don't see anything wrong with seeing how a user rated a thread.

Jo man! Nice hack! Just one request though. Could you make it so that is also shows who voted how when you go over the image in the thread_display? Now, i have to go into a thread to tsjek it out.

I know this looks like a good idea but in technical terms it is not unfortunately. You have to query the database once for each thread displayed in forumdisplay and this means if you have set your settings to display 40 threads per page, your forumdisplay page will have an extra 40 SQL query which way too much. Your hosting company wouldnt love the change..

However the hack as it is does not have such an disadvantage, and has a nice performance so should stay as it is..

Don't forget to add the "who_rated" template to the $templatesused line under Show Thread. It will save an extra query.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
