Hey all,

Hot on the heels of the major update to Advanced user Tagging we bring you this latest feature update: Advanced Post Thanks / Like v3.0.0 (Beta 1), now available for our Pro customers only.

Many of you have requested email notifications both for AUT and APTL, and with the advent of v3 of both mods it's finally available for both mods. You'll receive an email whenever a button has been clicked, and it can of course be disabled via your UserCP (or globally, by the admin) should you choose to do so.

Another exciting update is the fact that the mod has finally stepped out of its comfort zone of dealing with only posts, vB Blogs and the excellent upcoming DragonByte Gallery by Dylan leading the charge. Steps had to be taken to make the mod more friendly towards multiple content sources, and we await your feedback regarding the performance of this update.
Based on customer feedback, the interface used in integration actions drops the "thanks bar" and the borders. HIDE tags are not implemented in any of the new integration areas, due to the complexity of re-loading the different content sources without impacting performance.

Our vB4 users will be happy to know that the Post Colouring feature has been vastly improved, now allowing you to pick which part of a post should be coloured. Furthermore, the Forum Block widget has been vastly improved, with support for viewing the Top X Recent and Top X Clicked of multiple buttons, chosen via a handy drop-down menu.

Avid users of the HIDE tags will be pleased to know that it is now possible to specify one or more buttons to be the "default" button when posting a post with HIDE tags, or posting attachments. Previously, members would be unable to hide content via the Quick Reply, forcing them to click Go Advanced, find the specific form element, tick the box, then submit their post. This is no longer the case, and any HIDE tags will use the admin-chosen default button to require clicks for content and/or attachments.
