The :like: emoticon

[plasma2002]

Hey Matt,

I know all these stupid little changes are probably bugging this shit out of you by now, haha... (i get about 5 emails a week from my dad wanting me to make little changes on his website, so i know how it is)

...BUUUTTT...


I dont know phpbb's structure as of the new versions, but Im assuming its still vaguely similar to what it used to be...

I propose adding in the following psuedocode to whatever module handles post viewing:

Code: Select all

str_replace(":like:", "<img src='like_button.gif'> <b>" . $postersName . " likes this!</b>");

for those of us here who dont like code, it just basically makes it so whenever somebody puts the thumbsup icon, aka, this:

It then re-writes it to this:
Plasma2002 likes this!





(By the way, matt, you know you have a trustable admin here, should you ever need it)
