the avatar dosnt seem to appear... i only see the image when someone still dosnt choose a avatar ..

I have the same problem. When I added /forums/ in front of $avatarurl for the adv_portal_top_posters_bit template, I then get the avatars of those that have, but now the no avatar image doesn't appear. When I try to open the ? in a new window, the URL for that image now is http://www.phototherapy.org/forums/http://www.phototherapy.org/forums/images/styles/tulip/misc/unknown.gif see how the domain url is there twice.

When I take out the /forums/ and those with no avatars show, that url is: http://www.phototherapy.org/image.php?u=1&dateline=1229200176

So it has to do with something on how it calls the url for the avatar. Other than that, nice mod. Until someone can fix the URL problem for the avatar, I'm turning off the avatars portion. I wish I was a coder/programmer. Thanks, rg sends!

[rolandogomez]

I would also like to get those other mods you have on your forum for vBadvanced, like the members with top friends and the top visited members. Thanks, rg.

[chooky]

I also get the Error "The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

which version of vbadvanced do you use?
upgrade your vbadvanced version to 3.1.0

[rolandogomez]

I'm using the latest vba plus 3.8 RC 1. Any ideas to get this fixed? Thanks, rg.

[AWMGolfer]

Just curious, would there be an easy way to change this from top poster to random user and/or latest member?

[Hasann]

added

.xml
.module (serialized data)

file types

[rolandogomez]

Still no images showing up on 3.8 RC1. If I turn on the images, only the no-avatar for those without an avatar shows up. When I view the address the system is using to try and pull the image, i.e., the image location, it's something like this, http://www.phototherapy.org/image.php?u=1&dateline=1229200176. The rest of the mod works fine, so I've turned off the images/avatars. I hope this gets fixed, nice mod otherwise. Thanks, Rolando

[chooky]

I also get the Error "The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

I use vbadvanced 3.1.0

[thunderclap82]

I also get the Error "The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

I use vbadvanced 3.1.0

I too am getting the error. vBadvanced 3.1.0 and vBulletin 3.8 RC2 is installed on my end.

[Mythor]

This is what I changed to get custom avatars showing correctly for my forum. Your mileage may vary. :)
In topposters.xml find:
$avatarurl = $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$userinfo[userid]_$userinfo[avatarrevision].gif";
Replace with:
$avatarurl = "/forum/" . $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$userinfo[userid]_$userinfo[avatarrevision].gif";
Note you will need to replace "/forum/" with your specific subdirectory. e.g. "/vb3/"

Nice module, thanks Hasann. :)

[rolandogomez]

Mythor,

I took your idea and in order to get mine to work, I had to do more. Though instead of messing with the XML file, I just did it on the top_posters.php file. After applying your changes in blue, I had to apply what is in red too, see below (note, "forums" is my forum directory, for all users, make sure it's your directory name, not mine) :

// User custom avatar
if ($vbulletin->options['usefileavatar']) {
if ($thumb AND @file_exists($vbulletin->options['avatarpath'] . "/thumbs/avatar$userinfo[userid]_$userinfo[avatarrevision].gif")) {
$avatarurl = "/forums/" . $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$userinfo[userid]_$userinfo[avatarrevision].gif";
} else {
$avatarurl = "/forums/" . $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$userinfo[userid]_$userinfo[avatarrevision].gif";
}
} else {
if ($thumb AND $userinfo['filedata_thumb']) {
$avatarurl = '/forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u=' . $userinfo['userid'] . "&dateline=$userinfo[avatardateline]&type=thumb";
} else {
$avatarurl = '/forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u=' . $userinfo['userid'] . "&dateline=$userinfo[avatardateline]";

Now it works, (demo here: http://www.phototherapy.org/index.php ) much thanks! rg sends!

[Mythor]

Sorry, I suggested doing it on the XML file but forgot to point out you should do so before uploading it. That was why I did it that way. ;)
Glad you got there with a nudge in the right direction. Hopefully Hasann can sort this out in the next version! :)

Hi Hasann,
I don't have "vBa CMPS / Download" in my admincp :(
what shall I do?

[mike2567]

have the same issues with custom avatar not showing and I am not familiar with editing php files.

Guess I will wait for an eventual fix in the xml file.

Like this mod though!

To all you guys getting "Invalid File Specified":

Make sure you aren't trying to add this via the Product Manager.

You must go to:
Admin CP-> vBa CMPS-> Download/Upload Module

[armthehomeless1]

Wow, I'm surprised at how many people are asking the same question in this thread!

Installation instructions are in the first post.

Installed fine for me. Altough, for upgrade I had to remove the old one first. It wouldn't let me overwrite.

[armthehomeless1]

Avatars still weren't showing up for me in the new version at first. I managed to fix it by adding "forum/" in front of 'image.php' on line 49 in top_posters.php on the server.

$avatarurl = 'forum/image.php?' . vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";

Hopefully that helps someone else, who's forum is installed at www.website.com/forum :)

[goxy63]

Hassan thanks for this module, hope that you will create few more similar to this one for 3.8.1

@armthehomeless1
helped to me, thanks

is tehere any similar modules as this one with avatars, latest registered, most popular ect !?

[Netz]

I can't find translations. Do I have to translate it myself?

[petertdavis]

Really nice mod Hasann. How do you get the sub-header, where it says "Top Posters in Last x Days" to not show anymore? It's kind of redundant with the header, which I just changed to say "Today's Top Posters" anyway. Thanks!

[Theater]

Nice mod, thank you sir. :)

Im NO using CMPS but I want this for a simple vbulletin... Is It possible?

[Feanor_87]

Thanks! Works great!

Is there an option to ignore certain forums so it doesn't count the posts there?

[yotsume]

Hasann another awesome mod by you! INSTALLED and works perfect!

[BGObsession]

Installed - sweet hack.

Pet Peeve though - for those of you who keep saying 'it installed perfectly for me!' as if those that have difficulty are stupid...maybe, duh, there's a bug that doesn't impact you?

In this case, when I tried to install it to all of the skins I have loaded, I got the same error message 'invalid file' that many others did. Only when I limited it to my 2 main skins did it upload correctly.

[a9eel]

thx

[BGObsession]

Minor detail - but if I set it to track the top posters total (all-time), the module reads:

Top Posters in Last 0 Days

That doesn't really make sense - I'd prefer to change the text to 'Top Posters Ever' or something similar. Where can I find that line of text?

look into module.xml file at adv_portal_top_posters template there is the phrase you looked

[BGObsession]

Thanks Hasann, appreciate it!

[goxy63]

top_posters.php

after changin line 59 from
"$avatarurl = forums/images/misc/unknown.gif"
to
$avatarurl = 'forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";

that is same as line 49....reason is to display avatars ....

where to change code to call "unknown.gif" for users who dont have avatar!?

part of code in my "top_posters.php" (part in blue is line 59)

$avwidth = '';
$avheight = '';
if ($top_poster['avatarid'])
{
$avatarurl = $top_poster['avatarpath'];
}
else
{
if ($top_poster['hascustomavatar'] AND $vbulletin->options['avatarenabled'] AND ($vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['canuseavatar']))
{
if ($vbulletin->options['usefileavatar'])
{
$avatarurl = $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$top_poster[userid]_$top_poster[avatarrevision].gif";
}
else
{
$avatarurl = 'forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";
}
if ($top_poster['avheight'] AND $top_poster['avwidth'])
{
$avheight = "height=\"$top_poster[avheight]\"";
$avwidth = "width=\"$top_poster[avwidth]\"";
}
}
else
{
$avatarurl = 'forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";
}
}

if (!$avatarurl)
{
$mod_options['adv_portal_top_posters_avatar'] = false;
}
else
{
$mod_options['adv_portal_top_posters_avatar'] = true;
}

}

<i>31. July 2009 new update is released.</i>

All known bugs are fixed now.

[steve1966]

thanks for the new update

[goxy63]

I have only one issue now

Height of Top Posters List is not working for me, whatever I change it doesnt create scrollbar

can it be cause I installed module specyfing only one page (page which works for my VBA)

any suggestions?

and yeah, it may be of use to a noobs like me
if your VBA is not installed in a same directory as forums you should place
forums/ (or whatewer neme is) in top_posters.php
here:
$avatarurl = 'forums/image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&amp;dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";

$avatarurl = 'forums/images/misc/unknown.gif';

[yotsume]

31. July 2009 new update is released.

All known bugs are fixed now.

SORRY NOT A CHANCE!!!
All known bugs aint fixed at all!

First I just upgraded and your scroll bar doesnt show no matter what height I select.

Second Your mod is not showing some avatars but others....

So whats the deal with the scroll bar?

EDIT: I fixed the problem with no avatars showing. How I fixed this on my site was I had to change just one users avatar and somehow this mod recalculated the avatars and now they all show! Interesting BUG! Now, please help me to fix the no scrollbar bug.

THANKS!

[supermak]

Hi Dude, I really like your mod, but I'd like to make just a little change.

I'd like to know if it's possible (changing the query or whatever) to show TOP THREAD STARTERS instead of top posters.

Thanks in advance,

[RedHacker]

You already have a module with an identifier of 'top_posters'. Please select a different identifier.

I cant upgrade

[RedHacker]

Not show scroll bar

[princeedward]

yes the height adjustment is not workin and scroller too.... got vb 3.8.4 here...

[FTG STRYKER FG]

Hi, I really like this mod, but there seems to be an issue for me. Installed just as you said and it works but with the following error:

1) Avatars do not show up. The images are white boxes with red X. (turned off for now)

[FTG STRYKER FG]

Got it to work by doing the following:

{

$avatarurl = "/forums/" . $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . "/avatar$top_poster[userid]_$top_poster[avatarrevision].gif";

}

else

{

$avatarurl = "/forums/" . 'image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=$top_poster[userid]&amp;dateline=$top_poster[avatardateline]";

}

[FTG STRYKER FG]

Also had to add the following in order for the "unkown" avatar to show when a user has no avatar set in theirprofile:

$avatarurl = "/forums/" . 'images/misc/unknown.gif';

[muratcan25]

thank you very much hasann

[reddyink]

Great MOD! Installed.

Is it possible to modify this to show Top Posters of a particular forum (example: Forum 10)
