If your forums are based on downloads or w/e and you wish to save forum/signature space then this mod is for you. If your members wish to be thanked by having another member simply download a file from rapidshare then allow them to link a thanks button to the rapidshare file.

Features
* Thanks button links to a rapidshare file.
* Members can ONLY add a rapidshare file and NOT a rapidshare folder. (So they don't mislead other members to download their stuff)
* For security reasons members are blocked from using a different website. (So they can't redirect members where ever)

Upgrading
2.2 and above can simply import the product and select "Allow Overwrite".

2.1 and below you must uninstall the old product!

Step 1
Admin -> User Profile Fields -> Add New User Profile Field

Single-Line Text Box

Title
Rapidshare Thanks File ID

Description:
Enter your Rapidshare file ID that you wish for members to download in order to thank you.
EX: http://rapidshare.com/files/<b><u>000000000/filename.zip</u></b>

Private Field: Yes
Field Searchable on Members List: No
Show on Members List: No

Step 2
Open product-rapidsharethanks.xml and find both instances of $post[fieldX], replace the X with the profile field ID you just created, and save.

Step 3
Upload the contents of the upload folder to your forum root.

Step 4
In postbit find an area you wish to place the thanks button and add this code:
<!-- Rapidshare Thanks -->

To have it show before the edit button add the code before:

PHP:
            <if condition="$post['editlink']">
                <img style="display: none" id="progress_$postid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/progress.gif" alt="$vbphrase[loading_editor_please_wait]" />
                <a href="$post[editlink]" name="vB::QuickEdit::$post[postid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/edit.gif" alt="$vbphrase[edit_delete_message]" border="0" /></a>
            </if>

Step 5
Install the plugin.

Changelog:
1.0 - Release

2.0 - Fixed a small issue that caused the thanks button to show for those that don't have the thanks system setup in their usercp.

2.1 - Forgot a small bit of code to make it so the thanks button only shows for those that don't have the thanks system setup in their usercp. It works now, my bad it was 8:00 A.M. When I worked on the first fix. I also updated the profile field example.

2.2 - Rewrote parts of the modification to be more server sufficient. Also all future updates will not need to be uninstalled. A simple Allow Overwrite will work. However this update will require you to uninstall and install the updated product.

2.5 - Fixed an issue with the server sufficient code caused the button to repeat. Added a message feature so that when the user clicks the Thanks button they are informed that they are being redirected to Rapidshare. Since there is more to see,Added screenshots.

2.6 - Fixed the repeating issue for sure this time. That was accidentally left out the fix in the last release.
