Post Thank You Hack 0.6

About this hack:
This hack allows users to thank someone for a post without making a big mess on your forum. I'm sure most of you HATE when people just make a post that says 'thank you'. Also, for those people who don't like making the 2 word post, this gives them a chance to say thanks. It's also good for users of your forum who post something helpful and want to see if people really used their information.

There is a similar hack called 'Automatic Thank You Hack'. That hack only lets you thank the first post of a thread not just any post. It's also unsupportive and was release for an older version of vbulletin.


Features:

• Places an easy to use button next to the edit button
• Separate looks for postbit and postbit_legacy
• Places all Thank Yous into one small box
• Users can't thank twice
• Users can't thank their own post
• Guests don't see 'thanks' button
• Separate PHP for actions
• Option to turn off hack for individual forums
• Option to turn off hack for all but first post of a thread
• Option to turn off hack view of date for separate or all forums
• Counts how many thanks a user gives
• Counts how many thanks a post gets

• Shows how many thanks a user gave in every post of his
