[center][size=5][b]Good Post/Bad Post Mod[/b][/size] Author: [b]OutofOrder[/b] Mod Version: [b]2.0.4[/b] SMF Versions supported: [b]2.0 RC3, 2.0 RC4[/b] [size=11pt]This Mod will add post voting to your forum in a user-moderated fashion. The outcome is a bit of help to the forum moderators, with the nice extra that it resembles democracy a little. [i]It gives members and moderators a general idea of who's a worthy poster and who isn't.[/i][/size] [/center] [size=3][b]Setting it up ([color=red]please read[/color]).[/b][/size] Right after this mod is installed successfully, you might want to... [list type=decimal] [li][b]Choose which membergroups will be able to vote posts[/b], and which will be able to display hidden posts. You can do this in the [b]Permissions[/b] area.[/li] [li]Choose which boards will have this mod enabled. You can do this by going to [b]Forums -> Good Post/Bad Post -> Basic settings[/b] inside the Admin panel.[/li] [li]Decide the [i]Bad post threshold[/i]. This setting should be different from community to community, so don't worry if you think the value may be wrong at first. It's about trial and error.[/li] [li]Decide if you will restrict voting to members with a minimum post count, or if you will restrict votes only to positive scores. You can find these options in the [b]Advanced configuration[/b] tab.[/li] [li]Choose which staff membergroup will be able to manage this mod. This permission can be found under [b]Forum administration[/b] permissions.[/li] [/list] [size=3] [b]The installer fails to modify one of your themes?[/b][/size] If you can't apply this mod to one of your existing themes automatically, [b]don't panic![/b] This mod was written in order to be easily added to custom themes. Doing so should be possible to achieve if you know a bit of PHP, and are able to understand the theme's HTML code base.
