Inspired by the XF1 add-on "Post Ratings", and the prevalence of "Reactions" as an alternative to the single dimensional Likes.

Does not work with XF 2.1

Post Installing
This add-on will require configuration, only a default "Like" is added after installing.

• Tools => Import Data => Import from XF1 Post Ratings
• Content => Content Rating => Rating Types => Add Default Rating Types
  • This adds "Facebook Style" ratings of;
    • Like
    • Love
    • Haha
    • Wow
    • Sad ?
    • Angry
• Content => Content Rating => Rating Types =>Add New Rating Type.

Installing/Uninstalling on a large forum

It is strongly recommended to use the CLI installer/uninstaller.

This add-on alters xf_like_content, which can take a very long time for a large forum.

To run the SQL manually, use;

SQL:

لطفا گزینه ورود یا ثبت‌نام را انتخاب کنید تا کدها برای شما قابل نمایش شوند

On uninstalling non-like ratings are dropped;

SQL:

لطفا گزینه ورود یا ثبت‌نام را انتخاب کنید تا کدها برای شما قابل نمایش شوند

This is very slow.

To disable this behaviour, find uninstallStep3 in this add-on's Setup.php and comment out/remove the content of the function.

Implementation notes

• Designed for performance, only minimal data is fetched when interacting with the rating system
  • Overrides XF2's rebuild behaviour to instead be incremental rather than count all ratings on a piece of content.
• As MySQL's InnoDB table structure does not feature prefix compression, a content type/id pair is very inefficient space-wise.
• Uses per-content tables which are dynamically managed to store count totals, and automagically links these to the right places for use.
• If a content's table is "too large" to extend (ie when adding a rating type) without downtime, that content has the rating type disabled for it and the required manual SQL for the administrator to run provided.
  • "too large " table size threshold is an adjustable, may be to fully automatic or fully manual for adding columns.
