    I really hope I'm putting this in the right spot. Confused

    We have a phpbb2 forum.

    Is it possible to add another button beside the like button?

    I would like to do something like this non-forumotion site.
    Adding another button beside "Like" and placement Likebu11

    Is it possible?


    Also kind of a side question....

    Can I move the button slightly more toward the bottom away from the text for those who don't have a signature?

    As far as the like button goes, it's a modification of the reputation system which only tracks Positive and Negative votes. There's no other system on the forum that tracks votes, so you can only have two buttons, but only submit a vote for one of those buttons. You could make a pseudo-vote system, but the only way I can see that working is by having your own database to keep track of the votes.

    tl;dr
    It's possible to have multiple buttons, but would require advanced technical knowledge to develop.

    Well I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff. I would be fine if the button only count one or the other. Just as long as I have 2 button choices. If that's impossible with my lack of knowledge on this stuff then I may have to mark this as solve. I don't want to be a nuisance. Doh

    B/w your hints and tips threads are awesome, Ange Tuteur. thumleft
