Importer from Abe's Thanks mod (vB3 / vB4) and vBSEO "Likes" now available in Lite version!


Major Features: Lite

Require a Button Click: Allows you to hide the content of a post, or hie an attachment, until the person clicks a button on the post.

Statistics: Shows the top 5 people for; Giving / Receiving button clicks.

Collapsable postbit stats: Shows how many button clicks a person has given, received etc in the postbit. Admins can determine what statistics can show in the postbit to control sizes etc. The postbit is also collapsable.

Admin Permissions: Control things such as who can click buttons, require button clicks, what shows in postbit, what options can run concurrently, per forum permisions etc.

Reputation: Add / Remove Reputation for each of your button clicks.

Notifications: Receive alerts when a member clicked on one of the buttons for one of your posts.

Import Thanks: Import script to import "thanks" from Abe's [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack on vBulletin.org. It will work with both vB3 and vB4 versions of this mod.

Import Likes: Import script to import "likes" from vBSEO.


Major Features: Pro

Infinite Buttons: Ability to create new buttons to press! No longer do you need to be limited by Thanks / Like / Dislike.

Auto Collapse Posts: Collapses a post so it doesnt show up by using a formulae for button clicks of your choosing.

User Postbit Config: Lets users decide what postbit stats they want to see.

Additional permissions: Un-click a button. Control how many stats show on the statistics page, set permissions per subforum.

Integrated Controls: You can now integrate the button clicking controls into the post footer, like many of you requested.

Buttons in First Post Only: This allows you to only make the first post thankable. If you forum is based around news, releases or anything similar this will allow your users to easily see the quality of the thread in question.

Button Click Anonymity: This feature will be extremely helpful to forums who like the idea of a "dislike" button, but don't like the drama it brings. Now you can set certain buttons to be anonymous - no one will see who clicked.

Post Colour Thresholds: Ever wanted an easy way for members to tell if a post is helpful or trash? Colour thresholds let you change the colour of posts depending on how many clicks of a button they receive. Members can now see at a glance whether or not a post is helpful, interesting or pointless.

My host company insalled the plugin for us and enabled it, but the thanks/like icons are not displaying anywhere for any users, whether they use a custm style or the default one. I asked them why this was happening and they've essentially said I just have to test it and figure it out. But I'm at a loss. I'm on vb 4.2.4, I'd appreciate any pointers anyone could offer me!

I would re-upload the contents of the upload folder as your first step

<font face="Verdana">A bit of an issue here with the like/thanks notification to the right tab in the user profile to see who liked or thanked...

The default format is "userid.html?#thanks" just doesn't work it keeps on redirecting to the main tab in the profile "My Activity".

but when i tried to put it manually with this format

"userid.html?tab=thanks#thanks"

it did work !

Any idea how to make it automatically ?</font>

Hello,

I am still experiencing the same issue as before. I have installed the latest version as of this post with a clean uninstall and re-install. Reminder, the issue is:

The button to thank a post next to the "edit" and "report post" buttons does not appear. If I inspect the elements, it's not that they are hidden. The buttons do not exist. No HTML for them in the DOM.

This happens in every forum, even ones that do not have any buttons disabled. I have even made every user group including guests and banned users able to click them. Still nothing.

The total number of thanks shows up above the post list and a collapsible list of a user's thanks shows up beside each post. The button is the only thing not working. Here is an example: http://www.maf_iauniverse.com/forums/threads/8826

(Remove the underscore from the url. It seems the word +++++ is filtered by the swear filter on this site.)

							it's a rare issue, but i think it's an easy enough fix for the few times it'll get passed over/misinterpreted to fix<br>

i see some players new to MU not understanding the concept of n0 peeks<br>
<br>
therefore, i suggest amending the entry in the modbot OPs from<br>
<br>
"Cops get n0 peeks."<br>
<br>
to<br>
<br>
"Cops receive Night 0 results on a randomized ["Town player" if that was selected in modbot / "player" if true random was selected]"<br>
<br>
it may only help 2-3 players a year, but i feel the fix is easy enough that it's worth doing?

[Makaze]

Disregard that post. I think I found the issue.

Edit: Confirmed. The button was being affected by a JavaScript code.

[roiarthur]

I try to fix the bug but i could not.

I am under Vbulletin 4.2.5 and PHP 7.0

For the first topic the system Like is ok, all the buttons works

But if someone answer a topic, under the answer the system Like double the display and two lines of sections of buttons appears instead of one.

If someone answer a third answer, the system Like triple the display and three lines of sections of buttons appears instead of one.

And it keeps growing

I cannot use that add-ons:down:

[wotws]

I need a payment method except paypal.
