Hi, we are attempting to upgrade our existing production site (ShockerNet Wichita State Forum) from vb4 to vb5 on a brand new server. The test site is Forums - ShockerNet Wichita State Forum. It took some deep diving to get the new site up using HTTPS, but we got it working and running smoothly. Next step is to get the plugins from the old site working.
I installed Advanced User Mention (chose the Upgrade option), and it worked great. The old [MENTION] bbCode started rendering properly right away.
Questions

1) But the next step was to get Advanced Post Thanks Like working, and here is where my trouble is. I installed it (again I chose "upgrade"). The 4th step in the Installation says: "Configure your Usergroup settings by clicking "Manage Buttons" under "DBTech - Post Thanks" in your AdminCP navigation menu, then editing each button and setting your usergroup permissions from there."
I am guessing those instructions are for older version of vb5.x because I can't find anything in the AdminCP that jives with that. I do however already see the Thanks and Like buttons. Can you clarify what step 5 should be for 5.3.2 users? If that step is correct, where do I find the "DBTech - Post Thanks" in my AdminCP, because I don't see that anywhere except under Manage Products, and when I hit Edit it has nothing to do with "Manage Buttons".
2) The second problem is that all of the counts are zero, and the history seems to be missing. On the Feature List of the plugin it says its upgradeable, so I was expecting (hoping) that that history would not be lost. Is there a way to recover that stuff?
I absolutely am going to pay for the Thanks and Like plugin to support you guys, even though I don't _think_ I need any of the features. If I need that to fix the problem, or if it's better to start with that one instead of Lite, let me know.
