To show it like ours is Pro only :)

Yep, but unfortunately it didn't help me!

I'm still confuddled about the relationships between categories/achievements/criteria. A handful of examples would be great.

How do I set different images for awards?

On the activity page, not understanding where the %s are calculated.

Also, would prefer raw points rather than %s .

In the future I know that I'll be looking to run short term competitions and calculate the points gained over that period but without affecting the total points overall.

Is there any further documentation with the pro version?

Oh and I've noticed the following which would be great to have, are they available in the pro version?

- points for adding an avatar
- points for adding a profile pic
- points for uploading album images
- points for blog posts

Such a display is Pro only :)

Categories are mainly only to structure it better. "Achievements for posting" is am example category.
Criteria are conditions that members need to fulfill to gain an achievement.
Upload an image to the images/icons/vbactivity/achievements and they will become select able.

I can't answer your other questions atm because I'm typing on a mobile phone and they require more detail.

not yet, but we are adding more points types for pro customers in the future :)

Questions and observations after first week of using this:

In the leaderboard, how can I remove some of the stats give? For example, the infractions is not something I want out there.

Is there any way to remove some of the columns in the ranking page? Better still - I'd love it if the actual points could be displayed in a column to the right of the username, they get lost otherwise and the focus is as a result on thepercentages which do not make sense to the average user.

Some kind of explanation is needed for users on what the %s, points and levels refer to. Perhaps these could point to a page which has the details so a user can figure out how to up their points - of course this would need to be editable or defined in some way.

You've said in the past that a sample setup is not appropriate for this space, I strongly disagree. Please show us how to set up half a dozen rewards/levels/achievements and how they could interact. If you do not have time for this perhaps another user would be willing to oblige?

The postbit was blown out of all proportions when I added this to it - is there any way we could have just one or two items in the postbit? Ideally I'd like to remove the activity bar and just the points and the awards.

There is also a need to make the link on the main nav bar optional, or to be able to add it elsewhere - realestate on this bar is premium and I'd like to decide what goes there!

There is most definately a need for being able o set short term targets and goals, ie points within a given date range. I would imagine this could be a premium offering. I'd pay for that.

A comparison page for lite vs pro would be great ;) AT the moment I'm not sure if any given item is not showing because it's pro or because I've not set it up correctly

Storing stats over time, at least the top people and points is a must-have. Pro perhaps?

Integration - needs to be done with thank-you, blog posts, articles, avatars, profile pics, profile questions, albums.

Need to be able to exclude users - I own my forum so I earn most points, I shouldn't be the one getting the rewards!

I'm running this for a promotional period without rebuilding the points database. As such, not too sure what activity % refers to exactly. I note that there's a suggestion that this be according to the most active user, or perhaps it's according to the average user - this would make most sense to me (providing it was most active actually active user). I'm concerned about when my promo period is over - do I rebuild then? Will I have stupid 5s then?

Don't get me wrong, it's a brilliant product - which is why I'm taking an active interest in getting my questions answered :)

At the moment, there's no way of hiding stats from the leaderboards page without actually disabling that entire points type.
I'll write it down for the next version :)

That page is getting a revamp in the next version, I'll definitely look into adding the actual points.

I could make a FAQ page I suppose :)

Levels aren't something you set up, but as for example Achievements you could add Posts >= 1, 5, 10, 15, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, 1000.

The Pro version allows postbit control.

Definitely coming in the next version, it was an oversight to only add controls for the two menu links and not the tab =(

That's an interesting idea, one that could be expanded to make this quite a mod for competitions ;)

It would be against vB.org rules to include this inside vBA itself, but we'll work on changing our website to reflect these differences in the future.

Already a planned feature =)

This is also planned, we're just writing our own Thank You mod first ;)

Also planned =)

Upon first rebuild, where it reads all your past posts etc, you will indeed have stupid %s. We're going to work on a system to avoid this happening.
The activity target is rebuilt daily, and it takes the amount of points gained by users who gained more than X points in the past week (where X is a value you can set in the admincp options) divided by the number of users who gained more than X points in the past week.

This value then becomes 100% of the weekly activity target.
Divide by 7 to get 100% of the daily activity target.
Multiply by 4 to get 100% of the monthly activity target.

Not a prob, you give good suggestions =D

OK, at last I have someone who has met my first award criteria - and no award. I've clearly missed something! Attachments show my settings

Display order is 0, and that means its disabled :)

That did the trick :) Thank-you!

Would be nice if you can add that points are deducted for each day of inactivity? Also would be great if you created a "store" to spend points received.


Can this modification be integrated with this one? :
