New to MyBB and Xthreads and Having a Lot of Problems

[ZiNgA BuRgA]

Firstly, XThreads is a thread extension, not a post extension, so you can't attach fields to posts.
The "ratings" you see in the various examples are for thread starters to fill out, they aren't tallied by users who reply.

If you aren't familiar with the MyBB template system, please familiarise yourself with it.
You can find a list of modified/added templates in both the XThreads release thread and the documentation that's included in the download package.
