What should I do to upgrade to this last version? Just upload the xml file? Or all the file via FTP too?
|
What was the problem ? What do I need to update ?
|
Updated, and it looks fine :D
|
A complete description as to what the problem was will be posted here shortly and an updated release.
|
You only have to reupload the award_request and award_recommend PHP files. If you upload the XML as well, it will update the version number.
The updated ChangeLog within the Zip file states the nature of the fix. |
Hey nice job getting things back up...
I did notice that there still hasn't been a bug fix for the following minor issue as of yet: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=361 I hope that is still in the pipeline! Thanks again for your hard work on this project! |
Phew, I am so glad that this fab mod is back. Good job! :)
|
I'm really not seeing how I would use this on my community - can others give me a brief run down on how you work it? What kind of awards do you give? How do you determine if someone is due an award? Why would I use this over vBActivity for example?

You can do many other things like Poster of the Month or whtever really depend on your site. And give out awards. |
I use for simply pointing out good members who stand out or bad members who are on probation it doesn't HAVE to used for just awards.
ie: Users who need to be pointed out the community as trouble makers get a trouble maker award. If they don't behave the mods know they have already had their chance. |
CypherSTL or Xanlamin could you guys please answer this question I have....
This site is running 4.0.3 and I don't know if they are using YOUR awards system or some other one. http://www.feverclan.com/forums/awards.php My question is, how did they get that type of layout on their awards page? It got a REALLY NICE layout of names of who got which award and etc... If it's not yours... could you make it possible to make yours look like that? I would love it then! Thanks. Edit: Can you also add the option to give awards based on how many people a user has referred to the site AND they signed up? |
If it is ours it is highly modified. And no we will not make ours look that way, personally I do not like it. You can get a hold of them and ask them if they would help you get the layout or do it yourself, but once you do your stuck with that version unless you keep doing it to each new one.
|
alright,
btw what is Quote:
|
Don't use the names, use the ID numbers instead. Pretty self explanatory.
|
I'm still confused, if I am doing it for post count... what do I enter for
Criteria Only use numbers. Use ID for Usergroups Is this field used for EVERYTHING or only on specific automations? I'm guessing it's used only when giving award for usergroup change? So should I only use that field for putting in the usergroup id of the usergroup that the member gets promoted to, so when he gets promoted to that usergroup he gets the medal? Is it only on that occasion? Sorry but its confusing. P.S. I have an inactivity mod on my forums , if people don't check site for 7 days, they get moved to "inactive" usergroup and once they load the site, they get moved back to their original one, so does that mean the award system will give it to them again? Because that wouldn't be good.... |
Enter in the number of post for postcount that you want the person to reach in order to get the award.
Thats all that needs to be entered into that field. No the automation will not give it to someone twice, it first checks to see if they have it, if they dont then they get it, if they do then nothing. |
And if you give out medals manually it will also check if they already have it?
Thanks. EDIT: The automation is working and I appear under the user list for each medal after promoting myself, but the PMS aren't being sent to the user. |
There are no PM's sent to the users from the automation system, only if you do the awards manually and select send pm to user.
|
Could you possibly add the feature to send pm with automation please?
Otherwise users don't know they got an award. |
Hey bouncer, if you wanna try your hand at adding it yourself, I often put that into my own mods (unreleased in their entirety since I'm too lazy to make it portable with other vB forums, kekeke).
Here's the code I use: PHP Code:
The "overridequota" is great because even if they have a full inbox, they'll still get the PM. :3 Setting stuff like fromuserid should be a no-brainer. $recipients is... hrm, I think it was a semi-colon-separated list of usernames. But if you're only PMing one person, of course there would be only one name. X3 In Xan and Cyph have included a nearby hook in their script, you can just use that info in a plugin somewhere. If not, I guess you could manually edit your awards.php file. Either way, just change stuff to your liking and make sure you goot values for every variable mentioned there except for $vbulletin, $permissions, $pmdm, and $pmid. Also, if you use this inside of a function, be sure to put a global declaration for $vbulletin and $permissions. :3 |
Eh I really dont know how to implement this.
Could you give me step by step instructions on how to add that code? All I want it to do is so that when automation gives award, it pms the user. |
How can I get this to work for 4.0?

The following dependencies were not met:
This product is not compatible with version 4.0.0 Release Candidate 4 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 4.0.2) SO basically what I'm asking is do I HAVE to upgrade in order to use this? It is my fav mod. |
well...you should already have upgraded to vBulletin 4.0.3 so you would have a lot of vB's bugs fixed, so yeah you will need to upgrade vB in order to run this version correctly cause vB changed things which made us change things in order for it to work properly.
|
Oh ok thanks. Didn't wanna have to shell out any more money so I'll pass till I decide if I want to keep my forum up or not.
|
I take it your on 3.8 then? We have a version out for it as well in the 3.8 Mods section.
|
Ah there we go. Thanks worked perfectly.
|
Users can't request or recommend awards, error messages come up, whats the deal?
|
What is the error message? Have you set the usergroup permissions?
|
I have tried to add this a couple different times. I have added the files via FTP, then I add the product and when I click import I get this :
Database error in vBulletin 4.0.3: Invalid SQL: ALTER TABLE award ADD award_allowrecommend TINYINT( 1 ) DEFAULT 1 NOT NULL,ADD award_pointvalue TINYINT( 3 ) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL; MySQL Error : Duplicate column name 'award_allowrecommend' Error Number : 1060 Request Date : Sunday, May 30th 2010 @ 10:49:55 PM Any help would really be appreciated! |
Installed into my vB4.03 site and all working fine ... EXCEPT:
If a member selects either "Request Award" or "Recommend Award" links, they receive the following message: you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:I do have the "Allow member to request this award" and the "Allow member to recommend a member this award" options turned-on under each of the awards. The "Award Category" is still set to "--default", so not sure if that's a problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! UPDATE: Got it to work now. Apparently after you install everything and configure the Awards settings ... you ALSO have to go to the User Groups setting in the ACP and allow permissions there too. I didn't see that mentioned anywhere. |

PHP Version 5.2.13 MySQL Version 5.1.30. Pretty sure I did everything correctly. I put the upload file into the root directory using FTP, once they all loaded, I then go to my ACP and try to add the product which is the point that I get that message. Any help is really appreciated. |
