Looks like you have groan hack installed.

We have Thanks hack, and our own reworked groan hack, and no problems.

No, I don't. That code is from the original .js file included in the download.

[TimberFloorAu]

Thats weird then huh.

[TimberFloorAu]

Yeah 3 instances of it in the js file.

Something to do with future Integration so that the groan hack dovetails in. That could be where the issue lies, if you have already had an installation of the groan hack.

Well, it may well be an issue even if you've never had the Groan hack installed.

Have you tried commenting out the ELSE statements, for the groan calls. In the JS and reuploading to test ?

[djbaxter]

Have you tried commenting out the ELSE statements, for the groan calls. In the JS and reuploading to test ?

No. But the code says it should be executed only if integrate is true.

By the way, the page refreshes after clicking on Thanks. I can't remember if it did that in the 3.x version or not.

I've got this error when I tried to import the product :

Any Idea How I Can See Post Thank Stats, For Example To Give Prizes To Most Thanked User Of The Week ????????????????

How come i get the word Thanks! could i not have the little images that are included in the .zip?

http://i48.tinypic.com/xbmrdx.jpg

[Kolbi]

I got another 3 MySQL failure message with nr 1146....

[x YNWA x]

Is there a way to have it so it just shows something like "Recieved Thanks: 15", instead of what the user has given out?

[cmeinck]

I made the mistake of uninstalling the product. This removed all the data from the table post_thanks. I have an older backup of my forums with this table, which I then used to replace the emptied table on my live forums.

I'm still seeing 0 of 0 thanks, but there is data in the post_thanks table.

Are there any vBulletin Updates or database queries to get this data recognized?

[djbaxter]

My apologies if this has already been addressed.

vBulletin 4.01

This version of the Thank you hack.

Groans not installed.

The buttons show up correctly.

Clicking on the button updates the thanks count for a mmmber in the User CP and the thanks count in the postbit, but doers NOT display the "Thanked by" informatiion under the post.

Added: Happens in both IE8 and Firefox 3.6.

More information: When I click on "Thanks", in IE8 I get this error:

[RedTrinity]

You probably still have the old post groan hack still installed but disabled.

I had the same issue. You need to completely uninstall the old post groan hack.

What is the post groan hack?? :confused: Definitely haven't had anything like that installed before... or was it part of this mod at an earlier stage?

[djbaxter]

What is the post groan hack?? :confused: Definitely haven't had anything like that installed before... or was it part of this mod at an earlier stage?

It's a companion mod. The Thanks mod is like a thumbs-up vote; the groan hack is like a thumbs-down vote.

They are separate.

[CheeSie]

Can we get an update that introduces the "Find posts thanked by user" and those other search functions?

[djbaxter]

Can we get an update that introduces the "Find posts thanked by user" and those other search functions?

Hang on to that thought...

First, can we get an update that actually works in 4.x? Without generating databse errors, permission errors, or disappearing?

[lighthazard]

Hey, how do I change the logo off the Thanks button?

[RedTrinity]

It's a companion mod. The Thanks mod is like a thumbs-up vote; the groan hack is like a thumbs-down vote.

They are separate.

Ahhh ok, thanks for the clarification.

Nope, that can't be the problem then, have never had the groan hack installed :D

Its still happening though, whenever someone presses the 'thanks' button on a post, it refreshes the page and returns to the first post of the topic.

Very bizarre! And driving us a little batty too, lol.

[djbaxter]

It's driving us batty because it's buggy. :D

[Trek]

So much for supported.

[djbaxter]

Abe is usually more responsive, actually. Apparently, he hasn;t logged in this month yet, though, so perhaps he's tied up with something and unaware of the problems.

I'd like to see it working again but it must be hard for many of these guys to tell whether it's the add-oon or the buggy 4.01 code that's causing the problems.

Thanks, not really interested in it though :) Just wondered what mfbmike was talking about when he suggested our Post Thanks problem was in relation to this particular mod.

Apparently not the case though, since we've never had it installed at any stage.

Me too. Maybe old Search engine links. So far as i can see, this function isn't used in vb4, right? Can we just comment out this section?

[migowebdesign]

Update, in template post_thanks_memberinfo_block you can see, the section for searching is commented.

So my suggestion, comment the part in the php file and there is no error until we get a fix.

UPDATE2: at my forum, the request were made by yahoo search engine...

Cheers

[MandachuvA]

Hey ABE!!

How you go about changing the font size of "The Following User Says Thank You to USERNAME For This Useful Post:" and the usernames display??

Default size is a little too big and annoying...

Does this work for 4.0.2? I just upgraded from 4.0.1 and I no longer see it any more.

[Bram H]

Just upgraded from 401 to 402 and works fine! Did you make sure to disable the plugin before upgrading?

[s0lidgr0und]

Does this work for 4.0.2? I just upgraded from 4.0.1 and I no longer see it any more.

Did you try reinstalling it with overwrite?

[Blindspot]

I think there is a bug in the fetch_thanks function, it only seems to return the proper template info for the first post.

[Kolbi]

I´m having the issue: Warnung: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in [path]/includes/class_postbit.php(314) : eval()'d code (Zeile 304) as well as the mysql issues...

Need fix!!!

[LordNinja]

How do I thank you after you click the page to refresh automatically?

[grc]

Do you think that perhaps the "Following Users Say..." takes up too much screen real estate? It seems to me that smaller fonts and keeping the usernames on the same line and less white space below the names would be less disruptive to the "flow" of the forums. I know I can hack it, but every upgrade will likely break my hack of the hack. Any thoughts?

Since Abe seems to be busy with other things, I went ahead and hacked the font size on the "Following Users Say..." line on the forums.

Listen, I'm not a coder and all I can say is that it works on my forum -- follow at your own risk and be sure you can go backwards if needed.

Anyway...

In post_thanks_postbit find:


Code:
---------------

If you're using the legacy (vertical) postbit template: change the word "title" to "bitlegacy"

Otherwise change the word "title" to "content"

Or, if you don't need to change the font, just edit the phrase to make it shorter, e.g., "Thanks for this post from" or "Thanks from".

[s0lidgr0und]

Or, if you don't need to change the font, just edit the phrase to make it shorter, e.g., "Thanks for this post from" or "Thanks from".

$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]

[djbaxter]

$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]

Actually, there are two, one for a single thank you and one for multiple thank you's:


post_thanks_user_says
post_thanks_users_say

Ypu'll probably want to edit both of them to ensure consistency.

[grc]

Or, if you don't need to change the font, just edit the phrase to make it shorter, e.g., "Thanks for this post from" or "Thanks from".

No doubt it's in the eye of the beholder, but even one character in that line takes up as much vertical space on the display as the entire phrase.

However, making the font smaller makes a big difference in the amount of vertical space being used.

[Ramsesx]

I didn't read all posts so I'll just let you know this hack is causing an error on thread inline moderation, see here (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/project.php?issueid=36383#note131752).

Don't post just to say "thanks"... click the frickin' button! :D

[BizAdventure]

Recently did an upgrade from 3.8.4 to 4.0.2 - and do you know what the biggest concern was to my community? WHERE IS THE THANKS BUTTON! HA!

So, the only issue I have? I came here too late to see you post that we shouldn't UNINSTALL when upgrading and only disable - well TOO LATE.

So my question - I still have access to the old database - and the forums - is there a way for me to grab the data from the old thanks numbers and import them to the new?

Probably whistling dixie, I know.

Thanks for a great product, and the great support at getting it up and running for vB4.

[reimic]

When I click the Thanks button I get this message:

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in [path]/post_thanks.php on line 57

Any advice on what to do?

Same error here!

When I click the Thanks button I get this message:

This is really putting me off. I've tried everything I can think of and still no go..

Must be someone that knows how to fix this?

Any help is much appreciated :)

[archet1337]

Doh, I'm such an arse..:erm:

No wonder I get the error message, I'm trying to thank a guest poster and obviously I can't thank someone that doesn't exist..

Actually, with the right drugs you can... but nobody else would be able to see it. :)

[archet1337]

Actually, with the right drugs you can... but nobody else would be able to see it. :)

It would be pretty neat to be able to hide the Thanks button on guest posts. Any idea on how to do that?

[djbaxter]

It should just be a matter of a vb conditional (you can learn about that at vbulletin.com). I don't allow Guest posts but if you used something like this



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------


it should work.

Play with it...

[archet1337]

I've been playing around with it for a while now, and it removed the button from the guest posts, but unfortunately it removes it from the registered ones as well. I've checked the usergroup id's and they match yours.

[djbaxter]

Sorry. Try this instead:



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

The "!" in the first code block in my previous post says "if NOT in array" which is the opposite of what you want (I think - it's Fried-day after a long week and I am truly fried).

[archet1337]

Thanks a lot. Seems to be working fine :)

Thanks for a great product, and the great support at getting it up and running for vB4.

I think the height of the thanks section is due to the large font being used. I posted my hack of the hack in post #560 of this thread. I don't know if anyone else tried it or not, but it makes quite a difference in screen vertical real estate being used on our forum.

[wrestlepower]

Still no fix for being taken back to the first page of threads upon thanking a post? Shame, becuase this has to be one of the most popular hacks on any vB forum, but Abe obviously has some issues preventing him from getting on to sort it.

Also, even though you are supposed t be able to serach users' thanks stats from their profiles, the option isn't there when you actually go to the profile.

[mokonzi]

Since Abe seems to be busy with other things, I went ahead and hacked the font size on the "Following Users Say..." line on the forums.

Listen, I'm not a coder and all I can say is that it works on my forum -- follow at your own risk and be sure you can go backwards if needed.

Anyway...

In post_thanks_postbit find:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



If you're using the legacy (vertical) postbit template: change the word "title" to "bitlegacy"

Otherwise change the word "title" to "content"

Again: I'm no coder - try it at your own risk.

Awesome grc, thanks for that tip. Been a headache trying to workout how to best change it. :)

Where in database I can find number of thanks each user have?
After migrating from another script I would like to migrate 'thanks' as well but I cannot find this in the database. Please help.

[robbiefritz]

I browsed through but didn't see the question asked; Is there a way to get the number of thanks to show as reputation comments in the notifications? On v3.8.4 users would see a notification if they received new thanks. Do I have something on v4.0.2 turned off or not set correctly for this to work? Not too familiar with v4 yet.

When setting it up in the AdminCP you can have it adding to a users reputation alright, but as yet there's no way to show it as comments or make it searchable.

Thank you for this Hack!

How can I change the Format of the Thank you output?

Ex. "Thanked: 5"

Instead of Thanked 11 Times in 6 Posts?

[mrdexx]

Installed fine in vB 4.0.2, however the mod doesn't seem to be acknowledging that my forum is in Legacy mode?!

Shows "the following users..." stuff ABOVE the users instead of to the LEFT of the users (just like the profile info etc.

I checked the template info, and it seems like it should be working since my vB option is set to legacy mode...anyone know how to make it show to the LEFT and not ABOVE the users?

Example:
http://i49.tinypic.com/n3935i.jpg

Also, I edited my postbit template as per Abe's instructions in his first post, but my "Thanks" button is still on the left side of the bar and NOT beside the edit button...no duplicate entries of the required code, and it is placed directly under the line he stated to...

Anyone got it that to work also?


Thanks!

Hello Abe1,

I would like to use your mod for two things.

1- As a Thank you Hack.

2- E.g. " Organizations and trip preparation" forum. When a thread opened on that forum and anyother users if would like to attend this trip. They should click add me button ( thank you button ). And we will see end of the threat which users would like to attend to this trip/organization.

May be there is a hack like that. But i couldn't find it. If there is not, wouldn't be a great hack.:up:

So could you show me a way how could i ?

Thanks alot bro...

I'm not Abe, but I couldn't help but think the vBulletin Polling options would be a better way to collect that kind of information. Do the post, then add a poll on whether or not users will attend. You can even turn on the ability to record who voted what.

[Rickpwns]

How come I can't see a thank button on postbit?
Also, I can not see the amount of thanks a person has given and received, any fix for this?

Yes may be polls can be used like this.

But imagine you have trips/organization forum.

In this forum when users open thread, the other users will choose ;

*attending
*may be attending
*not attending


or only attending.

Is there anything like this ? Or could be done ?

It can be very usefull for the club forums :up:

I am sure alot of people would love it.

Okay I guess. Maybe Abe will create a hack for you or maybe you'll find one that suits you.

I don't think it's nonsense though. When you create a poll you have the option of making the votes public, so no one has to vote to see how others voted. All one has to do is click on poll results and they'll see who voted what.

Still, if you say it won't work, then it won't work. No worries, and good luck with the project.

I'm just curious....at what point does the staff of vB.org step in and do something about the lack of support for a mod? It's not like this mod has a quirk or two, this thread is riddled with people who are getting database errors left and right, this mod has serious issues. At the very least, someone needs to come in and uncheck the "Supported" field, because this mod is definitely NOT being supported, and that is one of the main things I look for before I install a mod. The author hasn't been on in what....2 months? I realize that some of you are going just tell me to quit whining and uninstall it if I don't like it, but it's not about that. People are still installing this mod thinking it's going to be supported and it's not. The biggest shame is it's a nice little mod that my members really appreciated.....

There is no such point.

First, the add-on IS working for many people.

Second, at a certain point, you are free to take the add-on and work on it yourself to correct whatever errors you're having, or hire someone else to correct those errors.

Third, in vBulletin 4.x there are so many bugs remaining in the code that it's unclear whether the problems that people are having is a problem with this add-on or with vBulletin.

Fourth, a LOT of things changed from vb 4.0 to 4.01 to 4.02, requiring that many add-ons and styles had to be reworked to accommodate those changes.

Fifth, in my experience, when an add-on is working perfectly for some people and not for others, it is almost always the result of a conflict between that add-on and another add-on. Try disabling your other add-ons one by one until this one works. When you identify the conflict, you can at least make a decision as to which add-on you want more - this one or the one it's conflicting with.

[MikQuattro]

You completely missed the point of my post.....which was/is.....this mod is not being supported as the vB.org "system" suggests it should be. The "Supported" field is checked, yet this mod is not being supported. It has nothing to do whatsoever with anything you stated....the mod (and it's relationship to vB4) could be a complete mess, but if the author was working to fix them and/or helping people deal with them, then you could say the mod was being "supported". As it stands at this moment, it is not, and THAT was the only thing I was trying to bring to the attention of the staff (or whoever deals with such things).

Hello .. Finally, what should we do? There will be updates?

[War.Frog]

I think it's safe to say there's little point in posting any more fix requests for this mod until the author resurfaces. We haven't seen Abe or an update in 66 days.

[junaid]

cannot remove own Thanks

[grc]

Of course, we don't know what's going on in Abe's life and since very few have ever donated anything to him for this add on there's no room for complaint when things don't progress as quickly as we'd like.

I know this question gets asked about other mods, but don't you wonder why vBulletin hasn't added this as a standard feature. Unlike some other mods (and there are some really good ones) "thanks" is a a feature that just about any forum can use. It does nothing but enhance a forum.

I mean Microsoft and Google absorb nifty innovations all the time. Why wouldn't vBulletin want to see a positive feature like this be a part of their software or, if nothing else, keep the mod going?

Actually I don't think any of us know what Abe has gotten, or not. So either side of that argument is meaningless.

Beyond that, I think vB has enough on their hands trying to fix what's already included vB4...

[War.Frog]

I understand the sentiment behind the argument that vB has enough to worry about with vB4 fixes (which of course they do), but in this forum's context that argument is a specious one. The fact is Abe was here in January and then disappeared, reappearing March 3rd and then disappearing again.

I understand more than anyone how life can get the better of us sometimes and things like this rightfully fall way down on the priority list. That being said, to sign on and not provide some kind of update ("Sorry everyone...things are nuts in my life...I expect to be back in action by XXX") doesn't create the best atmosphere in a developer's thread or much joy in his/her users.

Yes for the most part the coders here offer their services and products for free, so the you-get-what-you-paid-for rule certainly applies. But...without the clamoring masses gobbling their stuff up to make their individual forums much better places to be, there'd be no incentive for these people to develop at all.

Abe1...we're just asking for an update. It's ok if you're completely buried in your real life - we've all been there - just let us know. Please? And if you don't want to take this on anymore, set your beautiful baby free.

:D

It does make sense.

Admin CP | Settings | Options | Post Thank You Hack

Find

Ban Usergroups
Any UsergroupID placed here will ban any user from that group from using this hack. They will still see if others clicked 'Thanks' but not see the button.
Enter a list of usergroupID numbers, separated by a | (for example: 1|2|3).

I'll try this. If it works, it would confirm my suspicion that it is triggered by bots trying to do a search for Thanks given by and/or received by a user (I assume a bot because I can't find a way for a human being to do that with this 4.x version).

I'm gettng a ton of database errors over the last couple days:

[decipher442]

How do I change the post bit info from this..

Thanks 104
Thanked 251 Times in 173 Posts

to show only this in the postbit...

Thanked: 104

[pozo]

I need the option "thread new on thanks"... Is there any possibility to realise that? Thanks in advance, it would be amazing if you could provide me this setting... :up:

Any help ?? :confused:

[s0lidgr0und]

I'm just curious....at what point does the staff of vB.org step in and do something about the lack of support for a mod? It's not like this mod has a quirk or two, this thread is riddled with people who are getting database errors left and right, this mod has serious issues. At the very least, someone needs to come in and uncheck the "Supported" field, because this mod is definitely NOT being supported, and that is one of the main things I look for before I install a mod. The author hasn't been on in what....2 months? I realize that some of you are going just tell me to quit whining and uninstall it if I don't like it, but it's not about that. People are still installing this mod thinking it's going to be supported and it's not. The biggest shame is it's a nice little mod that my members really appreciated.....

It was most likely designed in his free time and will be supported in the same manner. And like you said, if you have such a huge problem with the mod, uninstall it.

Hey Abe1,

Is there a way to have RANDOMLY display thanked users and have the option to list only 20-30 names, and if the user wanna see all thanked names then there's a [View More] to expand all usernames to thanks the poster?

Right now, I had three posts that had over 700 thanks usernames in ONE THREAD and it's taking up tooo much space!!

Hopefully you'll integrate these 2 function asap!

Much love.

Can anyone help me with this? I just tried reinstalling it again for the first time in over a month and it's still not working for me - I get no Thanks icons to click, nothing at all about Thanks in the postbit, and the entries in the user profiles are all zero.

I'm using the default style for vB 4.0.2 PL 1 and I'm using all the default settings in the Post Thanks Settings in the cp.

Thanks.

I installed this hack. And is really useful.

hack spec says, the following features are available.

# Search for a users thanked posts
# Search for all thanked posts

Where do I find the search feature for thanked posts by a user ? search all thanked posts ?

In post #1 of this thread Abe says: "2) No searching feature yet"

Our users miss that feature too.

(Tip: in a 700 post thread you can't take time to read them all, but it's a good idea to read the first few, especially if they're written by the developer! :) )

How can you change the order in the postbit? I would like to have the thank mod show up above another mod that I have in my postbit.

I upgraded to 4.0.2 today and for some reason, I no longer have the little thumb by the "thanks" on the thanks button.

I did a reinstall of the hack completely and no change. Anyone else have this issue?

The thanks button is there, just no longer has the little thumb next to it.

Try looking at the source code of a message and see where it is that it is looking on the server for the image. Then, put the image there.

I hope that works for you. Post the details either way, as it may help someone else.

Actually, the issue is an issue with a new style I uploaded as the thumbs icon still shows up on the default vb4 style.

I know a lot less than I know about this stuff. However, what I suggested should work for you. Switch to the style, then look at the source code and see where it thinks that image is. Then either edit the path in the style to the correct location or just copy the image to that spot.

No promises but I think that will work.

Hello and thank you for your work Abe1. I am also facing the non-existing "search" table as well. It looks like post_thanks.php is calling that table "search" that in version 4.0.2 does not exist anymore. If post_thanks.php is calling the DB, that table should be installed with the *.xml product. Not to mention that all files are in the right place uploaded. Somewhere in the *.php file still exists that DB query for a non-existing table.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

Its a common problem, sadly Abe seems to be busy and there is no info since first weeks of January, hope soon we can get some feedback i still have it working without major problems so far but holding it for my new project till everything work as it should.

Just don't use select/deselect all until vBulletin fixes things. It is a minor annoynace but it's not all that frequently that you need to use select all.

[jnrdavo]

Has anybody found the way to change the 'The Following User Says Thank You to xxx For This Useful Post: ' section to be reversed, like it is in Vbulletin 308? I think it looks much better that way..

Find and edit the following two phrases:


post_thanks_user_says (The Following User Says Thank You to {1} For This Useful Post:)
post_thanks_users_say (The Following {1} Users Say Thank You to {2} For This Useful Post:)

Thanks, it's not the phrase as such (ie, not the wording), but the format of the wording.

in vbulletin 3, the top line is in reverse, so it's separates the thread a bit better...

I think I should be editing the style, but any help appreciated :-)

Good choice, seeing you can't get it to work.

Same here. I don't think I've ever had any huge problem with this mod.

[djbaxter]

It does work well, except for the fact that the search features aren't implemented but the add-on contains the old search code and somehow some members andf spiders are finding a way to trigger a search - this is what generates the error messages. Doesn't affect functionality of the add-on at all, though.

Yeah, but not the font size. I would like the vbulletin 4 one to look like the vbulletin 3.8 one. It has a reversed heading (so I would need to change the paragraph to a header colour, then the font to white).....

Does that make sense?

If you move your forum to a new host this hack will stop you clicking on then reading any threads after the move, you just get a blank page, easy fix though, just disable it, re upload the XML file allowing overwrite then re-enable the hack.

This hack has proved very popular on my forum and is still running fine on 4.0.2 PL4

I was trying to install the "Post Thanks" in my vbulletin 4.0.2 installation. Uploaded all the files as specified in the instructions.txt file. Then went to "Plugin & Products System" -> entered file path in the "import the XML file from your server" (path as "./includes/xml/cpnav_post_thanks.xml") text box , selected "yes" for the overwrite option and clicked "import".

It is showing the message.. "Invalid file specified". If I give a wrong file name, then it is showing "No file uploaded and no local file found."

My site is hosted on IIS 6.

Can you please help me in resolving the issue.

Since Abe seems to be busy with other things, I went ahead and hacked the font size on the "Following Users Say..." line on the forums.

Listen, I'm not a coder and all I can say is that it works on my forum -- follow at your own risk and be sure you can go backwards if needed.

Anyway...

In post_thanks_postbit find:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



If you're using the legacy (vertical) postbit template: change the word "title" to "bitlegacy"

Otherwise change the word "title" to "content"

Again: I'm no coder - try it at your own risk.
This only changes the first line. The second line is still big. As I do not know about php coding I have no idea what variables should be changed. Can someone give me a hand in this?
