The like button and why you can't find posts people liked.

I've been asked by a few people why you can't see what post people liked from the notification. Simple answer is 2 different plugins that don't support each other.

Our like button is part of the vbSEO plugin and connects with Facebook. Not so important to me but that's how that part works. The notification plugin does work with another like system but it doesn't work with this one. Were probably lucky it even tells you.

A simple fix would probably be to make a plugin that creates a tab listing your likes and received likes in your profile. Then modify the notification to link to that page. A better but harder idea is to blend it into the activity stream of bulletin altogether.

I'll look into the simple mod soon. Right now me fast and Soulzz are looking into what's next in terms of features design and forum software altogether. Before I put too much work into vbulletin 4.2 I'd like to know we will still be using it.

Alright I googled a bit ago found a tutorial on the hook used to create a new profile tab. Its easy enough.

Should only need a couple days of screwing around. Have to query the table for the likes and then cross reference the user ids with names, post ids with thread titles and then display the result. Standard shit except I'm still a noob :p
