Hey Squidsk,

How does the automation work? I have some setup but it seems like there is a delay?

Regards

Its a cron job which is set to run once every hour, so after a user meets the requirement it might take up to an hour for the award to be granted.

However, now the listing is out of order. Cloud should be below TK:

EDIT: Actually, looking at the screenshot, I am now just noticing that Gottlichkeit is out of order as well.

EDIT II: I'm noticing it elsewhere as well.

Its how it was coded since the query to get the users who currently have the award is not ordered, any perceived ordering of results from a query without an ORDER BY is purely arbitrary.

By arbitrary, do you mean that most of them being in date and time order is a coincidence? How about the no matches error, though, and the partially blank page when using the ID?

Anyway, is it possible to make this go by date and time order?

Yes. As for the no matches its likely the user just has some characters that aren't being displayed on screen in their username.

If you wanted it by date order you'd need to add ORDER BY <datefield> to the query.

Mhrm not seeing our current being sent out to the usergroups. Is there any way I can make this instant? It's very important to the launch of the project.

Thanks!

In your scheduled tasks change the details of the awards task as needed. The more often you run a cron job the greater the resources used by the forum.

So why is it handing out awards every hour for post count.?
Isn't it going to check if they have the award.?

People will have hundreds of the same award by the end of the week. lol

Is that something simple or does it require server work?

Our owner is the server expert, so that's why I'm asking. I just know how to take backups, LOL!

It shouldn't be, it checks every hour for those who meet the criteria (i.e. have the requisite number of posts) but do not have the award and then grants it.

It requires changing one of the file uploaded to the server, it shouldn't actually be too complicated if someone knows what they're doing.
