Topic Ratings

[Kender]

is there a way to display the "rate this topic" in the first post of a topic?
maybe with a graphical representaiton (yahoo videos, youtube video - 5 stars, highlight over the star rating you want to give)

or would that be too much work and require a new/different mod?

the 5star graphic i am thinking of would be for the rating column on the vew board page, where you see the topics with ratings

Because this mod adds an extra column all my topic titles are a bit squished.

Is there a way of fixing this so the titles get more room?  If something has to be squished it would be better that it was the 'last post by' column.

Also it affects the sticky first post mod display but I can fix that

does anyone know how to do this?

Probably just adjust the column width in the first appearance of it.

yeah that was what I tried first but it didnt work, so I thought I must be missing something.  I'll look at it again later tonight

Mod seems to work perfectly for default theme but who ever uses the default theme?

If anyone could post a short tut. on how to edit custom theme files to make this work. would be much appreciated.

Use a Package Parser, there's plenty of them about now. http://sleepycode.com/PackageParser/index.php

Hi
I put the package through the parser but it gives me this error:

[qoute]ERROR: The package-info.xml file is invalid!

ratings checkbox is on each individual board.  Look in Admin > boards > select one of your boards and scroll to the bottom on the page.  You will find the checkbox near the bottom.

are you using a custom theme or a language other than regular English (English-utf8 is different to English)? 

Did the mod install correctly with no 'test fails'?

[TheNostradamus]

no test fails but im running Dark Red theme in english..

[perplexed]

as you are using a custom theme you will have to edit the theme manually  - go to the mod page here http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=91 and follow the instructions for manual install.

(btw if you switch to default CORE theme you should see the mod working correctly.  Make sure it is before starting on the above)

Always back up your files before editing them in case you make any mistakes

[TheNostradamus]

thanks mate, will give it a try after I have dome some work, Let you know later...

[perplexed]

you're welcome, post back if you have any problems

[TheNostradamus]
