What Does This Hack Do?
This is an update to my 3.8.x (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=223852) version of this hack, designed to work with vBulletin v4.0.x.

Have you ever wondered who rated a thread and what they scored it? Well, you would out of luck with a default vBulletin installation. But, fear not, this hack solves that by displaying who has rated a thread (in a box at the bottom of a thread), and the rating they gave it.

Hovering over a username will show the rating that user gave the thread.

In addition to this, clicking on the View All button will launch a separate scrollable page that shows how each user rated the thread. The View All button will only be displayed if at least one person has rated the thread.

This hack is controlled by usergroup permissions in the AdminCP Options for this hack, there is also an On/Off switch to turn this hack on and off.

The inspiration for this hack came from Paul M's Who Has Read A Thread hack, but instead of who read a thread, it shows who rated a thread.

My other inspiration for this hack came from being fed-up of the cowardly good-for-nothing idiot of sub-standard intelligence, who has stalking me on these forums for the last couple of years, is hiding behind the fact that ratings are anonymous and keeps on rating my hack threads with 1 star even when not one person has downloaded and used a hack, instead of rating a thread what is worth.

With this hack people can never rate a thread anonymous again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question:
This hack does not display...whats going on?Answer:
Ensure you have set the usergroup permissions via the AdminCP Options for this hack.

This hack also uses the showthread_after_activeusers template hook in the SHOWTHREAD template. This template hook must be present in any customised SHOWTHREAD template or style you are using, otherwise this hack will not display.

Hack Support/Feature Requests
I will provide support for this hack in this thread only, and only for people who have clicked on Marked as Installed. I do not provide support via Private Message, Instant Messenger or Email.

Support for this hack is in its unaltered form, and does not include supporting alterations to this hack, custom code, custom template edits and integration with other third-party hacks.

I will only add features to this hack if I find the request interesting and would find it useful to have on one of my sites.

As with all of the hacks I release for free, I code for fun and code hacks the way I like them, then release them so you can benefit. If I am not interested in adding a feature, do not take offence, it is that is a feature that does not interest me personally.

However, if you would like additional paid support for alterations to this hack, professional installation of this or any other hack, custom code, custom template edits, integration with other third-party hacks or adding features that not interest me (but you would like added for your site), then feel free to make a paid work request via the Paid Work Requests forum at Wolfshead Solutions (http://www.wolfshead-solutions.com/).


Branding
There is a small unobtrusive block of copyright branding text at the bottom of each page generated by this hack, which is there to promote my work and allow you to use this hack for free.

You are NOT allowed to remove my copyright branding from this hack.

If you wish to remove the visible copyright branding from this hack, then you can do so by purchasing a life-time multi-site Who Has Rated A Thread - Branding Free Subscription at Wolfshead Solutions (http://www.wolfshead-solutions.com/).

Removal of the copyright branding without purchase of a branding-free license will be considered as a breach of copyright, and I will take the matter further.
