This extension is great and seems to encourage my forum members to engage with each other more for a Like.

I do have a copy of questions, both are cosmetic, and the first of which is probably easier than the second.

Below is a screencap from the demo. I would like the message separated from the post with ..... (dots) above and below as per the demo. How can I achieve that ?

Secondly, just wondering whether it is possible to add the Like icon at the beginning of the thank you/like message ? It would just be static - non clickable. My forum has members from different countries, and I think they would relate better to seeing the Like icon, as well as the message which may not be in the native language.

Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.

You can do it modifying the styles. You can edit them directly or I always use Advertisement Manager extension to do so. You can add a new "advertisement" at page bottom and add this code:

Note: Change the color from #ff0000 (red) to suit your needs!

Code: Select all

<style type="text/css">
.postbody .notice { border-top: 1px dashed #ff0000; }
.postbody .notice dt::before { content:"\f087"; font-family: FontAwesome; font-size: 130%; margin: 0 1em; }
</style>

Advertisement Manager extension can be found here: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/ads/

Many thanks for your help Naguissa.

I used the Advertisement Manager extension to implement which was perfect for the separation by the dots in the post, but I now see that the code is showing in the ad space at the bottom of the page - I will look at that in the morning, and hopefully it is a simple fix.

I see a new location that could fit perfectly: it's at the end of placements (Advertisement Manager extension) and it's called "scripts" in "others" section. Ypu can try it...

Hey there, I have recently moved to old domain to a new domain and upgrade/update it to current version 3.2.18, phpbb 3.3.2. I have disabled extensions on Customise, except one "Thanks for posts", it is enabled. I have Extensions -> Thanks Settings and Rating Options. It is the same on General options on Yes or No, there is nothing "Thanks" on the posts. I have "Purge the cache" and filemanager cache, except .htaccess and index.htm. Now it is nothing on "thanks" on the posts.

Can you help me?

I'm still on 3.3.1, I'll update ASAP and check again.


Meanwhile, you can disable -- reupload -- enble the extension to check if anything was messed on upgrade.

ACP -> Group forum permissions -> Can Like posts -> Yes

memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1:

memberlist.php
nothing on like/thanks.

viewtopic.php on avatar:
Has liked: 0
Been liked: 0

viewtopic.php on post-buttons:
nothing on like/thanks. That is the problem.

So, I can see some of Likes/Thanks, but not all.




Edit:

ACP -> Group forum permissions -> Can Like posts -> Yes

Wait, think that I have forgotten it.
  • ACP -> Group forum permissions -> Admin -> All forums -> Full Access (on all the forums) -> Can Like posts -> Yes
  • ACP -> Group forum permissions -> Mod -> All forums -> Full Access (on all the forums) -> Can Like posts -> Yes
  • ACP -> Group forum permissions -> User -> All forums -> Standard Access + Poll (on all or most of the forums) -> Can Like posts -> Yes
silly :oops:

Configuration seems correct...

Are you using any kind of custom theme?

Could you provide a public URL to check it live?

I have at least one member who can see Thanks on all others' posts, but cannot see Thanks on their own posts. They do receive notifications of the thanks, though.

Does this sort of problem sound familiar to anyone?

This one is REALLY weird; any custom theme? Even so, that should behave as all on/ all off, not with this weird selective behaviour....

I know lol. We do have a custom theme, but I turned it off to have the member test.

I did find out during talking with him that he can see thanks on his posts in one sub forum, albeit not others. I am about to dig into the forum specific permissions and see if something is there.

Yes, maybe that's the problem:
