Advertisement Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Hi jaapv, Take a look here New "Thanks" button.. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
LUF Admin Posted July 13, 2010 Share #2 Posted July 13, 2010 I just installed a forum extension that allows to give a quick "Thank you" for another user's post. Still needs some translations and graphic make over. How do you like it? Best regards from Bonn Andreas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share #3 Posted July 13, 2010 Well, seeing that I have collected a couple It might improve social cohesion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 13, 2010 Share #4 Posted July 13, 2010 At least there's not a "Thumbs down" button too I don't know if this is universal, but there is an option to remove a "Thanks" after it's been given too. Thanks also appear in a User's profile: eg http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/members/jaapv.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted July 13, 2010 Share #5 Posted July 13, 2010 How does the new "Thanks" button work? I pressed it and it added a panel underneath the post and added my username to the panel to show that I'd thanked the poster but I'm not sure of the button's purpose unless it's just a quick way of showing support for a post without adding a comment. Anybody ... ? Pete. Edit: PS, Only an "Edit" and "Quote" buttons appear at the bottom of my post but I presume that the Edit button will be replaced with the Thanks button when my editing period has finished. Can anyone else see my "Thanks" button and if so would you mind kindly pressing it so that others can see the panel I mentioned above please? (Ah, I see my thread has been rolled into an existing thread. Thanks, Mods/Andreas.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest suilvenman Posted July 13, 2010 Share #6 Posted July 13, 2010 Let's hope there's no plans to include a "Have a nice day" option. Cheers, Ken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 13, 2010 Share #7 Posted July 13, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) The Hasselblad forum uses this Thanks extension too, and it is indeed a way of saying "Thanks" without the need to add a post. "Thanks" also get added up, so very helpful people will get a lot of thanks. Less helpful people won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share #8 Posted July 13, 2010 Somehow the button is there, but the tally in the lefthand box has disappeared. Obviously a work in progress So I was able to thank Andy and remove it Nice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 13, 2010 Share #9 Posted July 13, 2010 Look at the line just below your first post in this thread. You have two "Thanks" Clicking in your profile will give you a total of all the Thanks, in the forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted July 13, 2010 Share #10 Posted July 13, 2010 As I posted a few months back, I would like to see a 'Like' button below pictures, so that viewers can indicate that they like a picture without having to think up a comment. This is similar to the facebook feature which allows the same thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is similar to the facebook feature which allows the same thing. That's exactly what the Thanks button is thought for. Not only for images but can be used like that.

hoppyman Posted July 13, 2010 Share #13 Posted July 13, 2010 This is a good idea Andreas. We shall see how members actually use it. People of like minds or opinions will soon be more visible. By the way, Right now I see the message with the Thanks in German on this English thread here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stunsworth Posted July 13, 2010 Share #15 Posted July 13, 2010 At least there's not a "Thumbs down" button too Personally I'd prefer that. Showing the names by default could make a thread look messy if a lot of people say thank you. Does the software have any means of 'collapsing' the names and just showing a count?

Rolo Posted July 13, 2010 Share #16 Posted July 13, 2010 Can I just disable it, please ? p.s. Can this be used by 'repeat-pumpers' to pump images back to the top of the Photo Sections ? Oh dear, some will be disappointed. :-( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Azzo be prevented from multiple thanks. Then there's those with dual personalities. ;-) Maybe not a great idea after all. Folgender Benutzer sagt Danke zu rolo f Deinen Dank l Pardon ??

pop Posted July 13, 2010 Share #19 Posted July 13, 2010 The pro: I can acknowledge people who have commented on my picture without bumping my picture. That's particularly handy if the comments were not all in favour of my picture. I know, it's a contrived case.The con: Just clicking a button instead of typing the member's name and "thank you for your useful comment" might seem to bit on the terse side for some members with a reading and writing background.We might be on the verge of witnessing a shift of cultures in this forum. Signatures might spring to life saying "click don't write thanks", "thank don't bump" or "thanks in writing preferred" or some such. It's admittedly a problem but not one which keeps me awake at nights. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
