Info:
This mod works with the hack "[AJAX] Post Thank You Hack" as an addon and a) provides a page with the latest X (default: 25) "Thank You" the user has received b) notify the user via vbulletin notification menu (on navbar)
Very useful for users who want to keep up with the "Thank You" votes on their posts.
System Requirements:
[AJAX] Post Thank You Hack - for vB4
vBulletin 4.x
Installation information on hack:
Files edited: 0
Templates edited: 0
Files to upload: 1
Time to install: 1 minute max
How to install:
Upload the file "recent_thanks.php" to your forum directory.
Import XML file (as product): AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]
(Optional if you enable the notifications) Add the link "http://www.yourforum.com/recent_thanks.php" where you want (for example to navbar).
Notice (not a bug): The system doesn't decrease the notifications' count for new "Thank you" when the admin push the "Remove all" of a post (rare but ok). So the user will notified but he will not see the removed votes on the page.
How to upgrade:
Upload the new file recent_thanks.php
Import XML file (as product): AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product] with set of "Allow Overwrite" to YES
How to upgrade from vB3 version:
This hack developed from zero for vB4, so if you upgrade your forum from vB3 to vB4 with the vB3 version of this hack on it, you must uninstall first this older version and to do a clean install of this hack (product install and new file upload).
Set to YES if you want to enable the page. = No
Enable notification system? = Yes
If enabled, user will recieve a notification (on vbulletin notification menu) each time a post has new "thanks" votes.
Notifications of a new Thanks do not occur. This feature, which was what I primarily wanted, only works if the "thanks page" option is enabled (which is okay but I don't particularly need it).
In 4.1.1, with the settings as follows:
Notifications of a new Thanks do not occur. This feature, which was what I primarily wanted, only works if the "thanks page" option is enabled (which is okay but I don't particularly need it).
It is very necessary to enable the page, because the notifications' counter (Notifications: x) sets to 0 only when the user visit this page! So, if there wasn't this issue, the notifications' counter would be increase without cease. Also, on notifications there is the link to that page when a user has new thanks.
The page is the the main thing of this hack. :up:
Maybe I should set the title of "Set to YES if you want to enable the page" to "Enable the hack?". The page was the first idea of this hack, so after a lot of improvements I don't change the phrase. If I publish any new version, I'll change it, thanks!
Maybe I should set the title of "Set to YES if you want to enable the page" to "Enable the hack?".
That would be more clear, yes.

So if the member clicks the "new thanks" link on his own notifications, it takes him, to the page listing the last 25 or whatever thanks for the whole forum?

No no, the page doesn't listing the recent thanks for the whole forum. Watch the screenshot: "Latest 25 "Thank you" on your posts"
Every user watch the latest Thanks on him posts.
