[AJAX] Helpful Answers - Post Rating System (plus many sub-features)
Developer Last Online: Nov 2020
Note: While this modification is updated for compatibility, I am only developing features for the 4.x version. I understand many sites continue to use 3.8 for a variety of reasons but dual developing takes time away from adding anything new. I encourage you to develop out your own change and share them back as no modification is ideal for every forum out of the box.
Every day your users contribute hundreds if not thousands of posts making it hard for new members and guests to separate out the best answers from those that are less helpful. The Helpful Answers System offers your members a quick way (AJAX) to rate individual posts as either helpful or not allowing future visitors to understand the benefits of each post. Designed for maximum flexibility: This addon is built to be flexible and offers several customization options including:
Load & Scale: This addon is designed to work with small to large sites and is currently being used by sites with more than 2 million posts. If you have questions about integrating with your big board please contact me. Modification Installation: This addon requires uploading multiple files, installing a vBulletin product and enabling the feature in any forums you wish. No template modifications are required. Please see the included install file for detailed instructions. If you are not seeing the rating bar double check that you have enabled the feature in the forum you are in and insure the Manual Template override option is not enabled. Rating Review & Deletion: To identify and remove abuse a reporting system is included with this addon and can be found in your vBulletin ACP under the Helpful Answers tab. Through this panel you will be able to view a user's overall rating history and individual ratings and can remove either if necessary. Users can also be explicitly banned from the system. Reputation System Integration: Helpful Answers can be extended to directly tie into your reputation system giving users positive or negative points based on the ratings of their posts. There are numerous options on how to handle ratings that can be found in a separate Helpful Answers Reputation part of your vBulletin Settings page. External Integration: vB Plaza Modification - http://www.vbplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6359 vB Experience - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=199556 Anonymous Stats Tracking (optional): vBulletin forums reach millions of consumers around the world yet little is known about their habits and opinions. This addon was released to the public out of requests but also to further the research of forum user's behaviors and actions through collecting the most basic data on thousands of sites. By default this addon will pass basic rating data (positive or negative) to a 3rd party site for statistical purposes. Only the most basic data is captured (the vote and your site name) and no user information or specific forum details are logged, not even an IP address. While you may disable this feature through the administrative options I ask that you consider leaving it in place to help this research effort and insure the continued support of the addon. The tracking feature uses the php library cURL on a 5 second timeout. If cURL is not installed this option is automatically disabled. Updates: - 5/13/2011 - Release of 2.0.6 minor bug fix - 08/31/2009 - Release of 2.0.0 - 08/07/2009 - Release of 1.9.5 stable Other Versions: This addon will work with 3.7 but to avoid issues with different code versions please see the 3.7 version thread here. Before you download this modification please remember this is a free tool provided as a courtesy to you and support responses are subject to the availability of the author and other members.

This is a wonderful modification but I am having an issue (I searched this thread, possibly the terms used were not correct)
If a post is reported that had a helpful rating, and a copy is sent to my staff forum (in which everything is turned off, helpful answers is excluded from the mod forum).. ... and I have checked all settings.... it is showing up on the most helpful page..... as coming out of the Private MOD forum. Id there anyway to resolve this? |

Sorry for the delay.... Yes only when its reported. This means regular member and visitors can see the that we have a private mod forum. Most really don't know.... one member questioned us on it, and thought we were up to something in the private section!... and stated we shouldn't have a section like that.
