Title: Change the Applaud/Smite set up To Thanks
Post by: punchy on June 01, 2013, 02:30:30 AM
Ok so i'm not overly happy with the Karma description Applaud/Smite, I thought it would be easier and make more sense to change these for Thanks or no Thanks Buttons like in the picture below

(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi1262.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fii602%2Fwelderfab%2Fthanksbutton_zps3f5d8640.png&hash=fc0a899b58356f3725619f46a053c912fbe60d8c)

Ok so how do i do this?

1. Go  to your admin setup and Configuration>Features and Options>Karma

2. Change the "Karma" Label to "Thanks for Post"

3. Upload the 2 images attached to your forums root directory, then it will show in all styles  ;)

4. In the Karma applaud label box you need to remove what's there and replace it with a simple bit of HTML code which points to the "Thanks" Button image in your forums directory

<img src="http://YourforumDirectory/thanks.png" border="0" alt=" Thanks for Post"/>

5. The No thanks Button is the same but with the "No Thanks" image Just Put the code below in the Smite Box, Remember to change the Directory name to your forum.

<img src="http://YourforumDirectory/nothanks.png" border="0" alt=" No Thanks for Post"/>

6. Once done, just press save and thats it. A quick and easy way to add a Couple of Buttons to your new Thanks Setup
