The DP 'Thanks' feature is not working for me this morning. I depress the Thanks icon and nothing happens.

Not sure if this has anything to so with the site being down this morning for maintenance.

That's the thanks you get when you're depressed.
Yeah ... LIKE doesn't work.

My "like" button won't work, either.
 
Thanks for the report!

We are working to resolve this.

Edit:
May have found a solution. Would require more downtime. So far, it's looking like tom morning for attempt to fix.

Meanwhile, is like working with Tapatalk for anyone?

Thanks for your prompt attention .... and Red Akston also.
 
We have updated to the latest version of the LIKES system and the issue remains. We have escalated to the authors of the product.

Thanks for keeping us informed.
 
We believe we have resolved the LIKES system. Let us know if you have any issues.

Note there is now a 3 second delay in order to keep LIKE Spam at bay. It mite make the likes given/received appear to disappear for the target if you attempt within that 3 second delay. We are working on this, but it's not mission critical at this time.

Likes on DP are the only way I maintain any sliver of self respect I have left.

So I thank you for resolving the issue :2razz:

Let us once again everyone, thank the selfless members of the DP Staff that work in their own time to keep this place running.

Hear Hear!

It is not resolved for me. I do not have a thumbs up icon showing up in any of my posts.

Thank you Chagos for the like to show me you can see the thumbs up icon in my post even though I can't. I appreciate you doing that.

At the risk of asking a stupid question, how are your eyes?

I ask because the new like button has changed colour (leastwise on my browser) and is far less discernible than the old one was, certainly to a blind bat like I am when I'm too lazy to don my PC reading glasses.

On my screen it's still on the left of the report button (bottom of posts) and I don't know whether changing the forum skin would improve the visibility. Seeing how I've located it I can't be bothered with all of that.

P.S. just noticed that you gave my post #17 a like. How did you manage to do that?

My eyes are just fine thank you.

I see the new icon on everyone's posts, just not mine. But evidently you can see it because you gave me a like.

Well, how did you manage to give ME a like then?

Whooo (shuddering thought) do you actually expect to see the like button on something that you posted? So that you can click (and thus like) your own post?

That would be a novelty.

Look Chagos this isn't difficult.

I did not see the new like icon in my own posts.

Do you see it in yours?

Of course I would not like my own posts. You don't have to talk down to me. From my eyesight you questioned to now liking my own posts. Is that necessary?

Just answer the question. Can you see the new thumbs up icon in your own posts? Yes or No.

Of course NOT!:roll:

Nobody can in their own posts.

And you don't have to go all hissy over an honest question re.: eyesight when I've outlined that mine isn't too good without specs in front of a PC either.

Now is that sufficiently un-difficult for you?

Never mind, I'm done here.

Oh wow, the icon is indeed different. Slightly larger. It shouldn't be. Will work on it when I get the opportunity.
