I've installed a plugin that allows you to "Like" a post. All you have to do is click the little thumb icon in the upper right hand corder of the post that you want to "Like"

The author calls it "thanks" but I might change the wording around. But in the end I think the effect is the same.

So, start liking posts!

Hmmm yeah, I see that. I think it might be a caching issue.

But I will have to look into it tomorrow morning. Im done with computer work for the day!

Like system is great and all but im still waiting for a mention system so i don't have to quote every single person that responds to me in a thread.

Actually, the mention system has been in place for a while now...


All you have to do is type the "@" sign and the username...

Ok I have to activate this for every forum until the plugin gets updated again. So, I updated a bunch of the more popular forums and I will get to the rest later....

Very cool!

There are some things that need to be tweaked. I don't really understand the rating system, I think that might be a bit of an overreach. A simple like will do...

I turned the rating thing off, not really sure what they were trying to achieve there.... Anyway if you still can't see the "thumbs up" button in the right hand corner, let me know.

Just a quick update, I made some changes, thanks are now called likes (as they should be!) And the "has thanked" from the profile has been removed.
So now you can just see how many likes you've received because life is a popularity contest after all! :dance2:

Lost in the night, and there is no morning.
