Importer from Abe's Thanks mod (vB3 / vB4) 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.

Hey,
i got some problems with this mod.

I've converted from Abe's [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack
but it didn't convert the "Thanks (Received)", only the "Thanks (Given)"

&

(Pro) Max Postbit Users

I've set that value to 0 so it shows all users, but it still only
shows for example: "8 Member(s) thanked for this post" but not the usernames.

Any way to fix that? :/

Am on vBulletin 3.84 and this is the second Thanks plugin I have installed and once again nothing appears on posts and threads. It's probably site-specific because I'm using the original Thanks plugin on two other sites without problems. But I don't know where to look to find the problem. Any help much appreciated!

Advanced Post Thanks / Like v3.0.0 (Beta 6):
Fix: Removed future support of per-Social Group Discussion and per-Social Group Post disabling of buttons due to a flaw in vBulletin 4's search design that would cause PHP errors on search.

vBulletin 3.84 is logging sql errors, so I have now uninstalled but the same errors are continuing.

How can I ensure the uninstall has been fully completed?

Please delete the files that came with the Post Thank You hack, as that is not related to APTL at all

@DragonByte Tech

I had this awhile back for vb3.8 and worked fine, however, this time upon downloading and installing it i'm having a problem with the postbit.

I went into dbtech_thanks_postbit like i did before hoping to find the code for the postbit:

Likes:
Likes received
Likes given:
dislikes received:
dislikes given:
- but I can't seem to find it - i'm wanting to make it so that only the given likes show (by adding that code into my skins postbit_legacy template) so it shows Likes: 0

great if you can help?
thanks.

That's only possible in the Pro version ever since we switched to allowing unlimited buttons, as opposed to being stuck with those three

Ah. Figures lol. Is the option to move the likes/dislikes function into the postbit next to quick reply buttons also only available in the pro version?
