This mod looks amazing to me, the visual design is by far the best I've seen so far.

Also, suggestion. Can this be split up?

Max thumbs a user can give per day

To:

- Max thumbs up a user can give per day
- Max thumbs down a user can give per day.

installed and in use

Nice one

noticed a problem already, looks like a positive thumb adds a 1 to the number, get hit with a negative and that goes to zero?

not sure if thats meant to happen or if it should still say 2

does/should a negative cancel out a positive?

Members can do only ONE type of thumb to a post.
If push this , then it goes to (=you cannot push it again) and the thumbs counter set to "old number +1". The be the same (=it means that you can push it to undo the ). If undo an by clicking , the counter goes to "old number -1".

Finally, if you have not thumb a post or you have undo your thumb (up or down), the two buttons has their colours (= it means that you can push everyone, but only one time for one thumb).
A button "with colour" may have two functions: add a new thumb or remove an old (opposite) thumb.

Does my mod works differently on your site? I ask you to check if there is a bug.

Hi there,
as I've told you via PM, I'll give the screenshot to show you more details you've requested:

Screenshot 1: (Thumbs sent)





Screenshot 2: (Statistics)



Hope this information can help you. As you can see some data seem to be "botchy"

Really like this mod and hope and still playing around with it on my Test site.

I would like to show the number of Thumb up/downs in the users postbit below the avatar but for some reason they don't show up.
I am using the variables I found in the thumbs-center:
{vb:raw received.thumbsup}
{vb:raw received.thumbsdown}

Any help how to make them show would be great

Try to run the recounters about SENT thumbs on admicp > Thumbs Up? (left sidebar block).

Very strange!
Hope to understand how this number constructed to your statistics.

One question: what about the button of undo "thumbs up" vote?

Your example:


Can you give me an example screen about the "after" a thumbs up vote given?
Do you want a complete disappearing of or you have not problem if it appears after a thumbs up vote, to undo it? (I'm talkikg about ONE button each time)

(sorry for my bad english)

Yeah did so and it fixed that issue. But it doesn't tell us how this bug has occurred...
