    Solved How to set up a "thanks" button on posts

    Description of problem

    Hi, I have tried everything I can think of to set up a "thanks" button for posts so other members can thank the poster, on some posts there is a thanks button & on some there is a semi transparent "thanks" button that doesn't function (that as far as I know only I can see (I an admin) ).....but by & large there is no thanks button at all.

    I only want a thanks thing (& not anything else like "reputation",) with a count under members avatars of how many thanks they have received.

    I had a look around & ran searches but couldn't see this covered anywhere else, hence this post.

    The thanks button only appears to the topic starter in the replies in the topic.  You can only thank one post.

    Ah, I see, the thing is most of my members are used to Vbulletin & want to thank posts they have read / found useful / interesting...it's quite a strong habit to break for people used to it, unfortunately.

    Thanks for your prompt reply.

    Thanks, I installed the thanks button & it works no problem, quite straight forward for someone like me who has never used java script before !

    Good
