Show Thread Enhancements - vBorg Thread Rating

Update 08/21/07: Made a template change that should address the issue with the rating box still being visible after a thread has been rated. [link]

There seemed to be multiple requests for this, so here it is. This is a clone of the thread rating system you see in the modifications section of vBorg.

For a demo, scroll up to the big orange rectangle, select "Excellent" then click "Vote Now!".

Installation is simple. Just replace your current SHOWTHREAD template with the attached file. That's it.

For those with a modified SHOWTHREAD (or just for those who enjoy doing things the hard way), here are the required modifications:

In SHOWTHREAD:


FIND and DELETE:

<if condition="$show['threadrating']">
	<!-- thread rating menu -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="threadrating_menu" style="display:none">

Could you tell us where to add, move, delete, etc the code?

You'll get that error if you perform the template edits incorrectly. Go back, and perform each edit step-by-step. Optimally, you should just cut and paste the data from the attached .txt file into your SHOWTHREAD template.
