Server Requirements & Recommendations

Server configuration is a very complex topic and varies wildly between hosts, server operating systems, and even the personal preference of the server administrator. Below are the bare minimum requirements for the plugin along with the recommended setup to get the most out of this plugin. You may use ServerBuddy to help you determine how your server compares to our minimum requirements & recommendations.

Server Requirements & Recommendations

• PHP 5.2+

F.A.Q.

What features are planned for future versions?

• Allow users to submit their own topics and set up a moderation system so the admin can approve them.

• Do ThumbsUp or ThumbsDown only

Advanced CSS Override

Advanced users may want to disable the ThumbsUp CSS to better integrate the plugin into their theme.

The plugin's CSS may be disabled in the ThumbsUp settings page in the WordPress admin area.

Listed below is the structure for displaying the ThumbsUp Items.

div.pb_thumbsup_container /* or div.pb_thumbsup_widget_container for widgets */
	div.pb_thumbsup_item
    	div.pb_thumbsup_media
        	/* MEDIA GOES HERE */
        /* end div.pb_thumbsup_media */
        div.pb_thumbsup_vote
        	div.pb_thumbsup_vote_icons, div.pb_thumbsup_light /* Can also be  div.pb_thumbsup_dark */
            	a.pb_thumbsup_icon, a.pb_thumbsup_selected /* .pb_thumbsup_selected is present if the icon has been selected */
                a.pb_thumbsdown_icon, a.pb_thumbsdown_selected /* .pb_thumbsdown_selected is present if the icon has been selected */
				div.pb_thumbsup_vote_stats, div.pb_thumbsup_display_stats
                	span.plus
                    span.minus
				 /* end div.pb_thumbsup_vote_stats */
			 /* end div.pb_thumbsup_vote_icons */
			div.pb_thumbsup_loading_gif
            /* end div.pb_thumbsup_loading_gif */
