One more bug report from me till I provide my translation: (i sent you a pm, concerning some phrases)

Screenshot:



There is the following issue:
If I double click on a vote button unfortunately, the voting box disappears and the phrase "nopermission_loggedin_ajax" appears within the postbit. A very strange bug.....

can you fix that

I disabled stats in postbit - when I double click on a vote the voting options for that particular post dissapear completely. Refresh the page and the vote options return, complete with the vote as cast.

It is not a bug, it occurs for the reason that the box does not have the time (when you do a fast double click) to refresh its buttons, so the system recognize that you try to vote again.
This system works with one click, not with double.

May a improvement to the code fix this problem to next releases.

I will upload my first version of the translation in this thread too, so you can test it, but I won't update it anymore, as I'll give only support and updates on the German modification page

I didnt want the thumbs box in each post displaying a '0'

I only wanted it to display a number if someone thumbed up/down.

Heres how to,

edit sc_thumbs_box template

find

{vb:raw amount}

and replace with

<vb:if condition="$amount !=0 ">{vb:raw amount}</vb:if>

thanks again for a great mod Scandal

I like the idea :up:
Current I only have this mod set up for Album Pictures and Picture Comments.
The above template change does not seem to work as it is displaying (zero) 0...
at least for me.

Maybe Scandal can sort the code.. works for me though
