A suggestion for future release. Once the maximum number of threads/posts have been nominated, the nominate button should disapear for all threads apart from the ones already nominated??

@princeedward: thanks for the new images, looks great! Can you make 2 more "nominated" stamps for topic/ post of the fortnight since that's also a possible duration? I'll include it in a future release. Thanks :)

Good suggestion, maybe for a future release - I'll see how difficult it is to implement.

BTW: got your screenshot of 9 nominees, looks fine.

I don't think there is a maximum number of topics/posts that can be nominated. There's just a maximum number that can be shown in the poll and only the Top 5,6,7,8,9, or 10 will show up in the poll. I have way more than 10 nominated but have it set to only show the Top 5 most voted on nominations in the poll.

If we we're limited to how many topics could be nominated per month then this would kind of be pointless to use for a whole month...a post of the week could be feasible but if you have an active board a limit could be used up within the first few days of the month and the rest of the good posts couldn't be nominated.

I agree with you nascartr. The nominations mod is made to be dynamic so that better posts made later in the month can still qualify to be nominated and so that early posts can not hog up a limited # of nominations.

I thought Matthew meant preventing post nominations from the same thread once the max nominations was reached so that 1 thread can not hog a contest. There are cases that can be advantageous or disadvantageous with this feature. Currently, you can limit nominations to 1st posts only so that 1 thread can not hog a contest. I'll wait and see what other users prefer....

Yes' it's fine as it is, I totally misunderstood. I thought that because the poll only showed 9, that was the maximum that could be nominated. so when people were nominating more they were just wasting there time.

I completly understand now :)

Sorry.


I'm going to be a complete pain in the arse now, I know you have answered this question before, but I am new to all this and I just can not work out hot to do it....see attatched screen shot

Matthew,

So your posts above regarding more than 10 nominations was about threads/ posts still being able to be nominated when the max nominations in poll was reached?

If so, that's expected behavior as described in my previous post. Or did you mean more than 10 nominations were showing in the contest poll? Let me know so I know if there's a bug or not....

That post there is a bug. When you have it set to 10, and more than 10 are nominated. Nothing shows up in the poll...see the screenshot on that post.

Everything else is ok apart from the problem in my previous post about the "nomination image" position

Well, set "max nominations shown in poll" to '9' just in case there's a bug with '10'.

The image position is not a bug, it's your personal preference. That involves modifying the postbit template, which is a general question and not specific to this mod so you can post in the VB Discussions or Design Discussions forums (or maybe someone else can help you in this thread).

a okay...no problem here it is...
