So, someone has been abusing the thread rating system :/ , You aren't the first, but you can remove the feature 001_smile

In PHPMyAdmin, run this query -

PHP Code:

UPDATE `mybb_forums` SET `allowtratings` = '0' WHERE `allowtratings` = '1' 

Where you see

Quote:mybb_

, that is your prefix, by default it is mybb_ however, you may have set it to something different. By running that query, it turns off all the ratings for all your current forums.

This will remove the option to rate threads..

Log into the ACP and go to
Tools & Maintenance > Cache Manager > forums > Rebuild Cache

Now, the thread rating system has been disabled, when you create a new forum, make sure you turn of thread ratings in the forum settings.

To turn the thread ratings back on,
Run this query in PHPMyAdmin

PHP Code:

UPDATE `mybb_forums` SET `allowtratings` = '0' WHERE `allowtratings` = '0' 

Then log into the ACP and go to
Log into the ACP and go to
Tools & Maintenance > Cache Manager > forums > Rebuild Cache

Enjoy 001_smile

Nice tut, Connor. 001_smile

I generally find the feature useless as it is. Tongue

I have to thank Matt from MyBB, I needed to turn them off my self and thought others may need to so I thought I should remake one 001_smile

It's good but I don't think many people use the rate thread option.

I'm wondering why the myBB Devs don't include such option into myBB. Great tutorial +REP!
