TL:DR - I'd like to show a simple thank count on a post, rather than a list of thankers? how can I do this?

It doesn't seem immediately possible to do this? I'm not worried about showing images... all I need is a number somewhere on the post...

I'm going to be running a suggestions topic, and I need a way of monitoring which suggestions are preferred.

Many thanks,

Steve D.

Thanks.

This is a great hack, but if I'm correct, it makes the heart a clickable link that just sends you to the top of the screen? Ideally this link would show a list of all the users that have liked that post. Or not be a link at all and just an image... maybe I'm missing something.

The other thing that would make this extension much better would be if there was a way to easily disable notifications for Thanks removal. I have seen the option to disable all notifications, but I would still like notifications of Thanks. Currently, the user can choose not to receive notifications for Thanks removal, but it should be an Admin setting.

This can be done with html vs css edits. I thought about it too, but then it didn't seem so necessary. But at first this idea excited me like you. So this can be done with some edits right now.

But the extension asks you to enter a certain number for the list of likes. Maybe typing 99999999 will work

Code: Select all

OPEN
ext\gfksx\thanksforposts\core\helper.php

FIND
'THANKS_FROM'				=> $this->language->lang('THANK_FROM'),

AFTER, ADD
'POST_THANKS_COUNT'			=> $this->get_thanks_number($row['post_id']) ?: '',

OPEN
ext\gfksx\thanksforposts\styles\prosilver\template\event\viewtopic_body_postrow_post_notices_after.html

FIND
			<dt>{{ postrow.THANK_TEXT }}{{ postrow.POST_AUTHOR_FULL }}{{ postrow.THANK_TEXT_2 }}</dt>
			<dd>{{ postrow.THANKS }}</dd>

REPLACE WITH
			<a href=# class="button" title="{{ lang('THANK_POST_SHORT') }}">
				<i class="icon fa-heart fa-fw" style="color: red" aria-hidden="true"></i>{{ postrow.POST_THANKS_COUNT }}
			</a>

Save both files, purge the cache. Expected result is like that:

I would love to use this, thank you! Where do we put this?

Edit: oh do I just follow the instructions as written?

Could you please help with ajax compatibility. This number ({{ postrow.POST_THANKS_COUNT }}) doesn't change when clicking "like" or "take like back". Is it posible to make it work?
