Importer from Abe's Thanks mod (vB3 / vB4) and vBSEO "Likes" now available in Lite version!



Major Features: Lite

Require a Button Click: Allows you to hide the content of a post, or hie an attachment, until the person clicks a button on the post.

Statistics: Shows the top 5 people for; Giving / Receiving button clicks.

Collapsable postbit stats: Shows how many button clicks a person has given, received etc in the postbit. Admins can determine what statistics can show in the postbit to control sizes etc. The postbit is also collapsable.

Admin Permissions: Control things such as who can click buttons, require button clicks, what shows in postbit, what options can run concurrently, per forum permisions etc.

Reputation: Add / Remove Reputation for each of your button clicks.

Notifications: Receive alerts when a member clicked on one of the buttons for one of your posts.

Import Thanks: Import script to import "thanks" from Abe's [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack on vBulletin.org. It will work with both vB3 and vB4 versions of this mod.


Major Features: Pro

Infinite Buttons: Ability to create new buttons to press! No longer do you need to be limited by Thanks / Like / Dislike.

Auto Collapse Posts: Collapses a post so it doesnt show up by using a formulae for button clicks of your choosing.

User Postbit Config: Lets users decide what postbit stats they want to see.

Additional permissions: Un-click a button. Control how many stats show on the statistics page, set permissions per subforum.

Integrated Controls: You can now integrate the button clicking controls into the post footer, like many of you requested.

Buttons in First Post Only: This allows you to only make the first post thankable. If you forum is based around news, releases or anything similar this will allow your users to easily see the quality of the thread in question.

Button Click Anonymity: This feature will be extremely helpful to forums who like the idea of a "dislike" button, but don't like the drama it brings. Now you can set certain buttons to be anonymous - no one will see who clicked.

Post Colour Thresholds: Ever wanted an easy way for members to tell if a post is helpful or trash? Colour thresholds let you change the colour of posts depending on how many clicks of a button they receive. Members can now see at a glance whether or not a post is helpful, interesting or pointless.

I have two simple questions - how do I remove the header bar that says "Post Thanks / Like", and then how do I align the "like" (or the "like" button) to the right hand side?

Thanks for any help!

V3 beta 4 ... Minor bug when on the user profile page, the links to posts don't have 'p=' for some reason.
We have basic friendly URLs in our vB4.2.0 options

Patched this as a hack... ./upload/dbtech/thanks/contenttypes/post/parse.php

That sounds like a vBulletin bug in that case, I'll look at it and report it if I can confirm it

Updated today now thanks buttons are not showing, VB4.2.0.

Ive checked button settings and main settings.


Its behaving very weird, the thanks template wont display until you disable buttons in forums, then vanish when you enable.



Any chance readding the previous version to the above until its sorted?

Advanced Post Thanks / Like v3.0.0 (Beta 5):
Fix: (vB4) Links to posts in the Profile tab were incorrect for certain Friendly URL types.
Fix: (vB4) Sidebar block would cause error on Block Type reload. -Note: You will need to edit and save any Sidebar blocks you have configured for APTL before the error goes away! If you also have the Pro version of our AUT product, a similar fix has been released there.-
