Post Thank You Hack 4.5




About this hack:
One of the biggest problems on forums as you may know is 'posts boosting'. There are users who LOVE to say 'thanks' when ever they can. How can it hurt? Their post count goes up, they have nothing to loose.

There are also users who really like to express their thanks to post but don't like posting a post that looks like they're post boosting.

Then comes the moderators who have to delete people's thanks yous so a thread can look readable with out the thanks yous thrown around.

Finally comes the posters of these useful posts. They have no idea how many people really likes their posts if only some people say 'thanks'.

What this hack does is fix ALL these problems - except those users who like post boosting. This places a button called 'thanks.' When a user clicks on it, it places his username in a box right under the post saying that so-and-so says 'thanks' for the post. Every-one who clicks is placed in one box.

By giving your users the extra feature, you forum will look allot nice and organized. It is a granted liking by ALL the members of your forum.

Features:
  • Uses vBulletin easy Product installer/updater/uninstaller
  • Uses AJAX technology so your users don't have to refresh when they thank.
  • Places an easy to use button next to the edit button

Thanks again Abe for fixing it for me. To everyone else it was my fault it wasn't working, I had put the code in the wrong place and forgotten to put another piece of code in. Note to self: Never install mods when you're half asleep

Thanks for the continued support with this great hack. I take it there are no template changes from v2.7?

Ops.... I catch a small bug, but it's not your's....
Whan i translate phrases in plugin i get the SQL error when i try to delete own thank's with old translation. Because:
Code:
DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX ."reputation WHERE postid = $postid AND reason='$vbphrase[post_thanks_thanked_post]
I must run that query:
Code:
UPDATE ". TABLE_PREFTIX ."reputation SET reason = "translated phrase" WHERE reason = "Thanked Post"
Am i rigth?

There is a problem after the 3.0 upgrade.

Quote:
Database error in vBulletin 3.5.3:

Invalid SQL:

UPDATE msx_user
SET post_thanks_thanked_times = 1 + post_thanks_thanked_times, post_thanks_thanked_posts = 1 + post_thanks_thanked_posts, reputation = $vboptions[post_thanks_reputation] + reputation
WHERE userid = 110261;

MySQL Error : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '[post_thanks_reputation] + reputation
WHERE userid = 110261' at line 2
Error Number : 1064
Reputation is disabled under the hack settings. Waiting for a fix...
