Can the forum have a button I can click to say I enjoyed a post or comment?

hmm, I was hoping for something a little smaller but... I guess that would work...

I forget what SMF calls these. mods, maybe

[djohnston]

I was being facetious with the big logo. I don't do Facebook, anyway. I think what you're referring to is a "point system" where someone votes up a post. The PCLinuxOS forum was doing that, but later abandoned it.

Why did they? Do we need a poll here to decide whether or not to activate it?

Why did they?

I have no idea. I go there once in a blue moon. Seemed kinda silly to me, anyway.

Your call.

I'll make it simple. I have not found this feature while seeking in the administration board, so I suppose a MOD (stands for "modification") is needed.

pdurbin, do you want me to install this one ?

this is what looks most to what you are asking for…

Yes! Looks great! If it is easy for you to install, let's try it. If it's hard, please don't worry about it.

This was the hardest part : browse through the admin board (and I am not sure I didn't miss it), then go to the SMF website, put the right keyword and seek in 3 pages of MODs. Then all it takes is making a backup of the forum (with lftp and a db export) and this is easy.

I just tried to install the package : it doesn't work. The security check of the forum said the plugin lacks an "install/uninstall" feature.

Aucune action d'installation ou de désinstallation n'a été définie pour cette version de SMF !

No action defined. I'll have to ask the #smf chan (freenode) about it. Or you can go there and point to here, if you want to, then bring back any useful answer.
