Post Thank You Hack STAFF EDIT: Note - The mod author has been unreachable for some time, but the vbulletin.org community has stepped up to provide a number of individual fixes over the years. ForceHSS, Hippy, and Seven Skins have all combined many of these fixes into product files. ALL CREDIT STILL GOES TO ABE1 And this is still 'his' mod. Please still mark the mod as installed if you use any version of it. That said so you don't need to apply a dozen + small fixes yourself you should consider downloading one of the updated packages below: Hippy has one in this post. AND / OR ForceHSS has one in this post. AND/OR Seven Skins has one in this post. - Original File Specs: post_thanks_7_82.zip (26.4 KB, 24844 downloads) - Original file removed, replaced with patched files including search fix (some admins noticed hackers attempting to use outdated code to exploit search in attempt to gain administrator password or similar). - There are five total patched versions available, some with and without the search fix - I've replaced the main file with the patched versions... please be sure to download and install the correct version, the main mod post contains links to additional information and patched files! - If Abe1 returns he can request these packages be removed. About this hack: One of the biggest problems on forums as you may know is 'posts boosting'. There are users who LOVE to say 'thanks' when ever they can. How can it hurt? Their post count goes up, they have nothing to loose. There are also users who really like to express their thanks to post but don't like posting a post that looks like they're post boosting. Then comes the moderators who have to delete people's thanks yous so a thread can look readable with out the thanks yous thrown around. Finally comes the posters of these useful posts. They have no idea how many people really likes their posts if only some people say 'thanks'. What this hack does is fix ALL these problems - except those users who like post boosting. This places a button called 'thanks.' When a user clicks on it, it places his username in a box right under the post saying that so-and-so says 'thanks' for the post. Every-one who clicks is placed in one box. By giving your users the extra feature, you forum will look allot nice and organized. It is a guaranteed liking by ALL the members of your forum. Features:
Version 7.80 (12/30/09):
Version 7.81 (01/02/10):
Version 7.82 (01/03/10):

I'm not a coder and when I looked at Abe's code for the search function I could tell what was going on, but trying to modify it to work with vB4 is way beyond my capability. I hope someone will be interested in continuing this project. It's one of the top ranked mods on vb.org and it's a real shame to see it go away. No members have liked this post.

Does anyone know how to make the "thanked by" box smaller? I've done the fixes in this thread to make the font smaller and not bold, but the box is still mahoosive!
Thanks. No members have liked this post.

Now everything is all over the place and written on a level that most PHP developers would need hours to understand.![]()
Will the search come back? I dont know. I blocked out the old search which doesn't work now and when I'm in an already bad mood, maybe i'll take another peak. I release some of my other hacks so I can get my feet wet. Hopefully it will work.

I have a user that shows 4,294,967,295 thank yous. What is the best way to rebuild the thank you DB so this is corrected?
I'm still running 7.7. This is a great hack. No members have liked this post.

Why do you still have links linking to it?
