Not sure how I'd do that with it being in options rather than profile .. VB is relatively new to me.

Not sure what you'd want to happen in this case... the person who admires should think they've succeeded, but the person receiving shouldn't know about it.

Would silencing the communication be enough? But to let the admiration go through?

I would like to see the ignoring person not receive any notification at all ... ie. No PM from cilla.


What happens if a user clicks the same person loads of times ... is there any anti-spam mechanism?

There's two levels of anti-spam:

1) You can set a qty vs time based limit on the number of admirations a user can make against all other users. This is easier with an example: On my board users can admire a maximum of 3 people every 24 hours. So they can't just run around and admire everyone.

2) You can't admire the same person twice... it simply advises the person making the admiration that they've already admired that person, and perhaps it's time to send a PM to them and strike up a conversation.

Simply use a different user (that you create) and change the settings in the AdminCp to reflect the user you want to use..

AdminCp > Phrase Manager

The phrasegroup is: User Tools (global)
The phrases all start: secretadmirer_

You didn't upload the PHP file. It's in the instructions, the .php file is in the .zip file.

I'll try again but I know i did.

You were right I had the file in the wrong folder.

OK I have another issue. I don't see the link in a few members info. How do I make it so everyone has this?

*edit.* I figured it out.
