Yaga 1.1 Released

hgtonight

I just released Yaga 1.1 which is compatible with Vanilla 2.2. If you find any issues, let me know what you think either here or on the issue page here: https://github.com/hgtonight/Application-Yaga/issues

Any issues you find I would be more than happy to hear about!

What is new in 1.1?

@hgtonight

I don't use this, but still feel you should receive far more gratitude and credit from the community than I suspect you do for your efforts with this.

rbrahmson

I highly second that!

Congratulations on the release and thanks for being so open towards suggestions and changes!

I love the flexibility and stability gained through this release. It really allowed me to build a tailor-made gamification system for my community that works well with other plugins.

Hello newbie question, how do i hide WTF and SPAM both in discussion and activity page (reactions)?

is it css hidden? or theres another way.

Thanks!

hgtonight

@maxyaeger You can completely change the reactions that are available via the settings in the dashboard. Go to http://forums.example.com/action/settings to edit the available actions.

I also want to note the default Spam (and Promote) action is only available to those with the 'Garden.Curation.Manage' permission.
