Thanks (like) addon
Would you consider adding the 'Thanks' mod to phpbb? It works very much like a 'Like' button, but really allows you to thank somebody for a post. It also tracks how often a person has thanked or has been thanked. I use it on other forums to simply say thanks or good point without having to respond with a single line response.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
This (or something similar) has been discussed in the past. At that time we decided to wait for the next version of phpbb (3.1?) before implementing it. Not sure if it was this one.
I'm all for it, so I'll just await the almighty Joe to comment on this

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Yep doable - I found something that should be compatible...
I can tweak the language - "Like", "thanks" ,"Thumbs Up", "Kudos", "pips"... what do you think?

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Ace post?
I think Like or even just Thanks is just fine, but if somebody comes up with a really clever one.... Lots of card words could be used as puns, but the depending on how flexible the wording it is that could get awkward.
Coolio?????????????????

Re: Thanks (like) addon
What's wrong with coolio?
I'd say keep it at "thanks" or "thumbs up". Anything else might be too cheesy and get old really quick.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Right the rating thing is over-engineered - I'm going to see if I can just make it show the number of thanks (at the moment it's a percentage based on the most popular post in the topic)
The style needs tweeking too - too late here to get into it now though.
EDIT: Who am I kidding - sleep is for the weak!
Refresh your browser cache and you should start seeing thumbs up by the post edit buttons. The number of thanks for that post in the post header with the author and date details.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
If it's just one, I vote for "Thumbs up" since it's the most general. If we can have 2 things, I'd say "Like" and "Thanks".
And no, Dan, we're NOT having "Coolio"

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Very nice and very prompt! I was able to thank you so looks like it's working. Took me a while to find the icon since it's not where I'm used to, but that's OK. So yeah, thanks!
Is it a config change to make it list the names of who thanked each post? Right now it just increments the count by the thanked post, but I'm used to and prefer the "These users thanked the author {thanked-user} for the post: {list-of-users-that-thanked}". That would be ideal, but not essential. Also, the notice page that you thanked somebody wouldn't be needed since your name will be listed there. That's a bit awkward and not needed anyhow.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Ooh that was quick. We did mention that between the mods when we discussed this feature. It'd be cool to see a list of who has thanked what under each post. But it could potentially make the boards look messy with lists of names under everything.
It's a worth a shot to see how it looks at least. Maybe a small font so it's not too intrusive I guess?

Re: Thanks (like) addon
How about, if you click on the number of likes on the post, then it expands into who has liked this post. But its definitely more work for joeEoghann wrote:Ooh that was quick.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Should be a simple config change and it should just list the user names comma separated. It won't be an issue even if 10 people thank the same thread as it should still fit on a single line. If 100 do it may look messy, but really, how often will that happen?

Re: Thanks (like) addon
Things can move around a bit - and a lot of features are turned off;
Notifications are possible - I'll turn them on and you'll be able to choose in your user settings.
List of people who thanked it a feature too - would have to play wih it to make it usable i think though.
I can also turn off the "You have just thanked" type message.
Can also move the Tahnsk button and change it's look if needed - post any suggestions!
Will have a look tonight - just off to work!

I'll throw a comment in - it works fine like you have it now, I think. The list of people that thanked could work, but it could be messy, as well, but - I'll leave that up to everyone else. I just play here.montecarlojoe wrote:Things can move around a bit - and a lot of features are turned off;

That blurb under our usernames would've been so much better with coolio.
Has coolioed: _ times
Been coolioed: _ times
It just WORKS. Buncha squares the lot of yah!
Also side note: I'm starting to appreciate going with thanked over thumbed up, if you know what I mean.

Re: Thanks (like) addon
That reminds me: new forum rule, any (serious) posts fishing for thanks or offering thanks is an insta-delete in my book...
Final tweaks for the time being - revamped button - Grey button for not thanked, Grey button with green tick for thanked and you can now remove a thank if you like.
The list (up to the last 10) is displayed in teeny tiny letters above your sig.
You can also turn on thanks notifications in the user control panel.
