vB.org Rating System Replica
I applogize for releasing this modification again for a second time. The initial thread has gone insane and literally doubles and triples ALL of my posts each time I have responded to the thread. I am not certain why, but it only occurs in that thread, so here we go again. lol
This modification will replicate the rating system found here on vBulletin.org. There is currently a release by Magnus out there that does some of this.
This version functions just like vb.orgs.
If you wish to see how this will appear, you can view the top of any page where there is a thread here on the .org. That rating box is what you will be installing.
I mean no disrespect to Magnus for releasing this modification. (It isn't his code, but he released something very similar.) I wanted to be able to support it and update the thread as needed.

Technical comments:
Uses AJAX but will fall back to submitting the form first, or if that fails it will use <noscript> tags to display submit buttons. The fallback methods are not thoroughly tested so, if you are able, please test them and report any problems you have.
Template comments:
Be careful about moving the HTML block around because it will fail if it becomes nested inside of another form.
Recommendations after installing:
- in vBulletin Options > Poll and Thread Rating Options, set "Allow Thread Rating Vote Changes" to No
- in vBulletin Options > Poll and Thread Rating Options, set "Required Thread Rating Votes to Show Rating" to 1 (this will hopefully encourage the use of thread ratings)
- install the Thread-Ratings on Search mod which was written for 3.5.x but is compatible with 3.6.x. (
Show Thread-Ratings on Search - vBulletin.org Forum )
- modify the threadrate_add phrase, In Languages & Phrases under "Search in Phrases," do a search for 'Your vote on this thread has been added' and modify it to say something more friendly/humorous
Are you a designer?
maybe you can make the HTML chunk more asthetically pleasing with images or CSS
changelog:
0.1 - initial release
0.1.1 - define JS threadid which may or may not be defined later in the page
Read this before posting
If you want to tell me what error(s) you receive, please do the following:
1. Make sure you DO NOT put the HTML chunk inside of another form it will not work at all if you do this. Please make sure it is after the $poll variable.
2. If you think the error is JS related and you are using Firefox, click Tools > Console then the Errors tab, clear it out first, then try doing the thread rating, Right-click and copy the errors related that show for your forum.
3. You did not upload the JavaScript file to the proper location
