Feature: New Points Setting: Points For Registration

A missing installer code caused an issue with registrations. If you downloaded the product prior to this post, please run the following query to correct it: Please remember to add your table prefix if you use one.

Dear Fillip,

I've installed this great mod. All seems working fine under VB4.2.0 PL3

Than I started to recalculate points but it seems not able to pass a specific user (me :) ) I imagine because it has a lot of posts and actions to calculate. It takes areound 2 minutes and than stops.

It hangs on posts maybe because I made more than 7000 posts

Is it possible to avoid recalculation of a single user and go on?

Thanks a lot
Eros

Looking at your PHP code
\dbtech\vbactivity\actions\admin\maintenance.php

maybe my situation create a bug in the way it calculated sequences of users to update

I have a vBulletin forum converted from a SMF (Simple Machine Forum).
UserId of users do not follow a sequence like 1,2,3,4
but I have admin = 1 and than all other userid start from 546, 547, ....
so there is a gap between 1 and 545

Just a guessing

There's no way to easily skip a single user, no. Does it stop loading, or just take a long time?

If it stops, can you contact your host and ensure set_time_limit and ignore_user_abort is available for your scripts - that way, vBActivity will keep on trucking until it's completed its tasks.

There won't be any issue with non-sequential numbers :)


Fillip

Thanks a lot.
Server is mine and timeout is already quite high (240 seconds)

I tried to recalculate giving 1 as "user per cycle" but now it seems to recalculate all users summing the results all in one user: 546
Recalculation page refresh after each user, but the userid shown is always 546 and data is summed up to the same user

I reset all the point and retried but it behaves always the same

Can you edit your configuration as per my previous post then?

Fillip

Could anyone here give me some feedback on how this compares to vBExperience?
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245023

I've used vBExperience for some time - but it's buggy and no longer has support. I was able to give awards for certain activities (tagging, referrals, points for having articles posted in the CMS, etc., etc). To include icons displayed in the user's profile that showed their level of achievement.

The members loved this, but it was buggy and I just can't afford to depend on something that is unreliable.

Has anyone migrated from vBExperience over to this mod?

I obviously can't speak for migrating from vBExperience, but I can tell you that you can both manually and automatically give out awards and achievements respectively in vBActivity.

Ours is also fully supported so any issues you encounter will be addressed ASAP (quicker by posting in our support forums vs here on vb.org) :)

There's currently no importer from vBExperience, but the Pro version has pre-made data available for import :)


Fillip

Any chance we can get i trader added to achievement criteria?

Please post feature requests on our forums - vB.org feature requests will just get lost in the mists of time once a few pages have passed :)


Fillip

vBActivity & Awards v3.0.4
Feature: Improved logging details for Control Panel actions
Change: Changed the Branding display method to inject itself into the copyright footer (underneath vBulletin copyright) instead of the page footer.
Change: Changed the Branding Free Key to a more secure key.

Hello

Promotions aren't working on my forum. Any ideas why?

I just set up a couple promotions of and nothing happens with the users.

The only thing ive found so far that I dont like is the position of the trophies..
They dont look good next to the users name at all, can they be added to the postbit? Maybe in another 'box' like the achievements?

Also is there any other icon packs? the included one is lacking somewhat - the small icons are great the big ones are so overbearing.

Please post Pro support questions in our Pro support forums :)

They're tied in with the Markup Username, so that can't be done, sorry :(

Unfortunately not :(


Fillip

I wonder (sorry if this has been asked, such a long thread) is this working with vB 4.2.0?

Maybe I have something set wrong - I am using the lite version and I'm trying to run "recalculate points" so my old members can get credit for what they've done. It stops processing on the 4th user at "gotten rep" every time I run it.

Is there a setting I need to adjust?

All our mods work with all versions of vBulletin - they usually work better with newer versions, as we keep our dev boards up to date :)


Fillip

I switched it to do 1 user per cycle and it has made it past that user finally... but I think this may take all day ;)

If one user has a very large amount of posts, or some other type of content, it can take a very long time to process that user.

Fillip

Having trouble with the activity bar in the postbit. The activity bar shows as tall as the available space in the postbit.

Thanks for the help

What browser is that in?

Fillip

chrome, firefox or IE is all the same

HERE <- is an example

This happens because you've customised the "dbtech_vbactivity_bar" template to remove the height limitation.

Please revert all vBActivity templates :)


Fillip

Here is what I have for dbtech_vbactivity_bar template
...
<div style="width:102px; height:11px; background-image:url(images/icons/vbactivity/{vb:raw color}_faded.png);">
<div style="width:1px; height:11px; background-image:url(images/icons/vbactivity/{vb:raw color}_left.png); display:inline; float:{vb:stylevar left};"></div>
<div style="width:1px; height:11px; background-image:url(images/icons/vbactivity/{vb:raw color}_right.png); display:inline; float:{vb:stylevar right};"></div>
<img src="images/icons/vbactivity/{vb:raw color}.png" width="{vb:raw percent}px" height="11" alt="" style="float:{vb:stylevar left};" />
</div>

Yet that's not what appears in the source code on your forum O.o

Fillip

I am not sure I follow what you are saying. The templates have been reverted or original. See above from the postbit activity bar template and also the source of the page as dispalyed. It is highly possible that I have made a mistake...that's why I am here:D

Hello guys,

I am trying to create a new achievement system for my forums. I have got issues and questions.

1. Achievements for dates
I have got the forums about World of Warcraft and as you maybe know WoW had some awesome events in the game or outside of the game. I want to make achievements like "BlizzCon 2010 - Be part of the forums during BlizzCon 2010". Unfortunately I didn't find a way how to add the achievement just for one fixed date. Is there a chance to do it somehow?

2. Adding more rules
I'd like to ask, if I can somehow add more rules for achievements. I wanted to add some achievements for sections and threads - mostly about posts in the threads - like achievement for posting in a Music Thread.

I am sure I will have more questions but I am not sure if someone here actually using this plugin and got some experience.

Thank you for your time and answers.

Try changing the template to Those need to be Awards, not Achievements. It's not possible to award Achievements for a specific date.

Unfortunately that would vastly decrease the performance of the modification so it's not possible at this time, sorry :(


Fillip

Thanks Fillip
it looks like that has resolved my problem:up:

Thanks for your answer Filip!

Can I add Awards for specific group of people? I found that it can be added member by member but I think I haven't got a time to add that to more than 7000 people manually :P

There's no mass-usergroup add at this time, sorry :(


Fillip

Thank you for your answer Fillip.

Anyway, I'd like to ask if it's in a plan or if it's possible to do it somehow with database command ;-)

Unfortunately it's not possible to run it via a database command as PHP needs to be executed for each award, sorry :(

For feature requests, you can post them in our forums and it'll get taken into consideration :)

Recently i got mail that new version has been released.

my current version : 3.0.2

how to upgrade to new version?

and one more Q , Is there any option to reset all points of all members??

Hello Fillip,

I have got a question about PMs for users.

I set achievement for posts:

• Polls Posted >= 1
• Polls Posted >= 5
• Polls Posted >= 10

Users reached posts (1, 5, 10). Unfortunately they didn't get Personal Message and achievement is not counted in the profile at all.

Before the post

After the post

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/07/4.jpg

Is there the time what I need to wait until the system will recognise it and will send Personal Message?
