Hi,

I really like the Thumbs Up feature, thanks!

Is there any way of getting the best rated posts to appear in a Forum Block? I'd really like to have a block on my Forum index that shows the top rated posts from the last week.

Apologies if this question has been answered before.

Thanks,

Rob

I did not have time to test yet
but can this be ran along side with ab1's thanks mod
or it has to be imported to this ..

meaning a stand alone thumbs mod

thanks for all your hard work.

[Hippy]

one template atm was not cached
sc_thumbs_memberinfo_block
I added this to Cache Templates

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'member') {
   $cache = array_merge($cache, array('sc_thumbs_memberinfo_block'));

}

[Hippy]

How do I enable the top rated and statistics

and of course closing tag:

</a>

I would like grey thumbup icon to appear here instead of red thumbdown icon.

2. Why number of thumbs in post is linked to DOMAIN/forum.php#{post_number}?
Do we really need <a href="#{vb:raw contentid}">?

3. Why you are not using existing global phrases for:

-From
-Type
-Date
-Time
-Content
-None
etc... ?

are these fixes still needed or where they implemented

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

Data of the page "Statistics" for whole site, refresh every 24 hours. So if you have done a clean install of Thumbs Up?, you must wait some hours to build the stats OR you can run the statistics refresh button at admincp > [block] Thumbs Up? > Special Actions > Rebuild Statistics :up: Its is a simple task for the server. :up:

I'm very happy to see you on this topic, Hippy

The biggest issue i have with this mod is the coloring, on my style it just looks OFF! It would be nice if the thumbs up and down buttons were like whats on youtube, smaller and neater. Also thumbs up being before the thumbs down. Anyway i can switch the thumbs through template edit?
