Just so everyone knows. I fixed the zip file. When downloading you wouldn't get anything in the file. But I fixed that.

This is a great hack - we are currently running it on our 6.04 UBB, and it is used quite a bit.
A feature request that I had previously posted: how about adding a "# of votes:" field right underneath the star rating (or next to it) for each topic? It would help further quantify the rating of a post. For example, some posts may be rated as 5 stars, but by just 1 user, but a 4 star rating by 40 members would be far more important.
Anyone else think this would be worthwhile?

must be - foreach my $file (qw(wordlets_rate

Fixing both errors. I don't think it matters for the second one tho.

When you do can you also give it the ability to RATE FORUMS, but only the ones you select.

I'm installing the Hack and have run into a couple of issues......
When I corrected the misspelling of "hidden", the "rate topic" window disappeared!!!! It was displayed BEFORE changing the spelling. Any idea why that would be?
Next to the "rate topic" window at the bottom of the page there is a drop down menu where a star is selected. When I click on the down down, it's blank....no indicators at all. Moving the mouse down the menu and selecting something.....the stars DO show up. Can anyone help me figure out why there's no indicator in the drop down.
Any assistance would be most appreciated
Panda
UPDATE:....I corrected the wordlets_rate error and that seems to have fixed it!

i'm trying to install the "Rate Topic" hack for 6.1.x and everything is fine except one detail. the .txt says to add: foreach my $file (qw(rate after: foreach my $file (qw(, with a space.
the only thing is that i have the "Chat" hack installed which already has something after that. this is what my "ultimatebb.cgi" code looks like:
# No need to touch this now that we have the VariablesPath! foreach my $file (qw(chat display misc email time search pm registration template_match whos_online wordlets wordlets_err wordlets_img wordlets_date wordlets_polls wordlets_calendar wordlets_mods)) { eval { do "$vars_config{VariablesPath}/vars_$file.cgi"; }; &CheckDollarAt($@); } # end foreach
so how would i go about adding the: foreach my $file (qw(rate or even foreach my $file (qw(wordlets_rate?? (either one supossedly works)
please help as this is the hack i really want.
thanks...ghost

one more question which is probably easier than the last one and has to do with worlets. http://www.mvremix.netfirms.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=000006 here's a test page, so go to the bottom and look at the "Rate Topic" part. i'm assuming that the stupid box that has the "rate_topic" quote in it is not supossed to be there. how do i get rid of that?? it's funny, because if you change what it says in that box, you can't rate the topic anymore. -ghost

I didn't write the hack, but your completed line should read:
foreach my $file (qw(rate chat display misc email time search etc...
just add rate (with a space between each variable) between the ( )'s. the order does not matter. the line could be (qw(chat rate display etc.. or (qw(chat display misc email time rate search etc...
