Does it work on 4.1.10? Manually templates Edit do not Like !

Excellent will be testing with Albums Pictures and Picture Comments.

In regards to the Ability to turn off "thumbs down" votes

Improvement Request: How about hiding the thumbs down if the it's not enabled.

Count and Thumb would need to be centered once the thumbs down was hiding.

Hi dude, great mod, will be my next translation project.
But you made an little error, maybe an redundant <b>

I show you the issue:

I've seen it only on SHOWTHREAD now:

That's how it should be:


Turning your mod on does this:



As you can see the administrative options are bolt now.
It's just a little bug, but maybe it should be fixed for next release.

The "down" button is necessary if you have also the thumbs down votes disabled, 'cause it unset the "thumb up".
Do you pick up any report to thumbs down votes (for example to Thumbs Up? Center or to the box), when they are disabled?
The only one I have in mind is that the down votes displayed on the "latest" page of Thumbs Up? Center, if you disable them "later" and the members has catch some "down" votes.

I think it works, vB4.2 and 4.1 haven't big differences. About the template edits: a mod can add auto-template changes only if the relative template has the necessary "hooks" on its code. I don't picked up any way to do these changes automatically. The template edits this mod needs are very small (only one "word" per template).
