How is this exactly different from the Vbseo Likes system?
Does this allow an option to add reputation too ?

Hi, just noted. If one clicks on inactive thums!' where the number shows(even the guest) it redirects to the index page Is it only me?

check it out yourself

I had that too but i edited that out of the code.. Scandal, can you address that in next update

[AURFSCAN]

Also I think the show thumbers popup should be to the left of the box and up, not below..

That too can be fixed in the css. Reason being If there is only one post in a thread theres no room for the box and the browser goes crazy with trying to scroll.. theres a mention of it in this thread

Can you share that fix please

[Valter]

You need to remove this (template sc_thumbs_box):

<a href="#{vb:raw contentid}">

and of course closing tag:

</a>

v1.9.0 available!
- new feature: support for vBBlog entries & comments
- small fix to box template (thanks to Valter :up

Thank you all for your functions ideas, are really very interesting and I'll try to include them to next releases, but currently I can't promise the earth, 'cause I'm busy with my site.

[scabbed]

first sorry for my english.

nice hack, i use it on my forum, i would like to know if it's possible to show the post with the most thumbs up under the first post of a thread ?

for example, someone create a thread and ask a question about something and the best answer which has most thumbs up just show after the first post (even if its like the 10th post of the thread)

thanks
