I've been using the Thanks hack for a long time. My users LOVE it.

What I would like to do at this point is institute the Groan hack in ONE forum. It's pretty much our debate forum for heated threads. I would rephrase "groan" to "Disagree." What I really want to be able to do is change the button image for the "Thanks" to "Agree," but just for that one forum. I'd like to leave it as "Thanks" for all other forums.

Would that be possible? I'm assuming I'd have to hack the mod to do it. If so, could you let me know where and how that might be possible?

THANK you, very much!
Teresa

is there a list.. like on a stats page that lists all of the groan stats?
Like who has the most?

[fukdawrld]

Do you know how I can stop this from showing multiple times?

see attachment..

[fukdawrld]

Lynne said I should ask here what hook this uses to fine the cause of this ^

[goshalim]

Anyone knows how to check who post thanks to me or Groan to me ?

[AzzidReign]

Not sure if this has been suggestion but can you make it so that once it gets so many groans, it will hide the post like in this mod:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=203801

Please let me know if you would or wouldn't mind adding this. If you aren't, then I'm going to have to find a way to do this or have someone else figure this out...or just install the mod above

[RedHacker]

This mod are have problems....?

[Hicksatpd]

Figures I only see this AFTER making a post in not just the 3.6 thread, but the 3.5 thread before that!

Sorry!

Anyway, now that I'm here, I'm sure this will work for my 3.7.4 board.

Solved - changed the Order of processing the PlugIns.

How did you do this?
