Hi Peter – one thing I liked about the forum that shall not be named 😉 was the Thanks emoji – mostly directed in my case to Larry of this parish – would it be feasible to have one of those – no worries if not – I’ll just use the like emoji

You would not believe how time and energy I spent researching reactions for that (we all seem to agree on wanting the thanks emoticon). I had to buy two different plugins (scripts and graphics in a package), one for the forum and one for the Groups /walls, and they are both subscription pricing that renews annually (FTR, I like the one on the Groups / walls much better; so around $70 US a year for the two; there’s a reason it looks like doing this site will cost over $2,000 a year at minimum). I can’t customize the one on for the Groups / walls, but I can customize the one for the forums (here) but it’s really not well executed by the developer. There’s is something I’ll give a try — replacing the angry emoticon with a thanks emoticon. But I’m not totally sure it will work based on what happened with the Blue thumbs up I added (note that you still see a white Like on the left and right). Still, I’ll give it a try in the next few days.  If that doesn’t work, I’ll just keep my eyes open and talk to the developers I’ve gotten to know and see if I could persuade one to make it for an affordable price.
