Let me get this right... you want an automated system to change user titles and/or groups every day? What's the criteria to establish when someone's title is changed?

What's the criteria to establish when someone's title is changed?

i am forget to say this, maybe for only 3 forums the most post from a member, and minimum post is 500 for each forum to get a title


for example the most post from the member is in Science, Health, and Computer Forum, each forum already have 500 post from a member

so the member title will changing to Scientist, Doctor, and Computer Engineer


its just like expert-exchange.com

not like that, that mod only change the title if people click install from the thread a member create, it is better if member doesnt need to create a thread, but only post

So basically user rank promotions by forum. Sounds like something that would quickly get pretty custom... not that lots of sites wouldn't benefit but just seems like how you run it would be different than how I do and so forth. Might want to look into having this done directly for you or trying to get some advice from the community on how to do it yourself.

I do something similar (kinda) on my site and I created a new column in the user table for it. Every time a new thread is created by the user in certain forums, if that column is set to 0, I set it to 1.

I'm wanting a similar kind of thing, I want a usertitle based on the forums, if a user has more posts in Forum A then it would change to Usertitle A, if they then get more posts in Forum B then their usertitle would change to Usertitle B.

Would that be hard to do?

Probably not, but maybe. You'd have to count the posts as they are being made or else just run a cron job every night to count the posts. It's also a matter of how accurate you need it cuz if you need it accurate, you need to subtract posts when one is deleted or moved. Or add one if one of their posts is moved to a forum you are counting them in. So, as I said, it could be easy or more complicated. And, the size of the forum and activity on the forum would also come into play with how to best write it.

Well said Lynne. This is one of those addons that could be fairly simple just looking at a few forums every night but it can easily get very complex in dealing with multiple titles, combo titles, deleted posts, etc...
