Fixed that by turning off adding template names as HTML comments.

However, requests don't seem to be working:

There's some error when sending your rank request. Please contact site's administrator for assistant.

Confirmed, will release a new version fixing requests/recommend asap although more than likely right after Monday (4th). Anyone else feel free to use the current version and simply restrict those two options in your usergroup settings until the new version is out :cool:.

Bingo, so you can install this and use in conjunction w/ the Awards mod if your running a military or FPS gaming community etc etc same as it's been since we first converted Hachno's mod into the Ranks system pretty much, I simply used Cypher and Xan's code to make it easier on me to update since a few had requested it for 4.x ;).

In fact you could rename the Awards mod into well.. anything and use it like a badge/ribbon/award/rank whatever mod, it is marked as re-usable code after all :cool:.

Are there any differences between this mod and the awards mod other than the wording?

When I installed the 4.1.4 database, then it fails, I try to install on localhost, it was like, you can explain ?

It looks like the installer did not add the rank table at your database.

It shouldn't make any difference at all about the versions, mod database install wise I mean.

After taking a quick look at the xml file I noticed a few things that need correction. For example, at the below install code you have forgotten to include the TABLE_PREFIX part which has been included everywhere else. Because if a user is using a custom prefix at his/her database then it won't work. It will work only if no prefix has been used at all.

PHP Code:


		
			
<installcode><![CDATA[$db->reporterror = 0;
$db->query_write("ALTER TABLE `rank` CHANGE `rank_desc` `rank_desc` TEXT  NOT NULL");
$db->query_write("ALTER TABLE `rank_user` CHANGE `issue_reason` `issue_reason` TEXT NOT NULL");
echo "<font size=\"1\">Alter table - 2.1.4</font><br />";
$db->reporterror = 1;]]></installcode>

Also you are using the depricated font size all over the place. It would be better, coding wise to use <span style instead.

Also it would be better to use:

PHP Code:


		
			
$vbulletin->db->query_write

instead of:

PHP Code:


		
			
$db->query_write

Other than that, great mod :)

I noticed the install code this morning along w/ a few other misc changes, I had not noticed the above ^ ;).

As far as revisions to code and corrections per Borbole's suggestion above and other misc changes and updates... yes, as far as functionality that would be none. So again, no need to use this unless you have a requirement to give out Awards and Ranks and the ranks should be used in a different manner other than "titles" per say as you already have a rank structure i.e. Administrator/Moderator/Member etc etc :cool:.

Updated to v4.1.4 on 7/2/2011

Notes:

Removed some residual Awards references in snippets of the code.
Updated two phrases.
Tested and initial bug report of database error depends on settings from tests ran, please be sure to test on a site with more than one user and have the options set correctly in admincp.
Tested and confirmed to work on vBulletin 4.1.4.

If the coding is cleaner and has some fixes I would prefer to use this.

Well... it's not just a simple matter of find/replace as some would think there's many variations i.e.

Award = Rank
Awards = Ranks
award = rank
awards = ranks
aw = ra
au = ru
etc
etc
etc

So it might be easier for you to simply rename a few phrases, in that case most of it would show the wording "Award" or whatever you wish it to say... some areas in admincp may still say Ranks etc but a few changes to the phrases in the xml and you should have something working the only con to that is if you have Awards mod installed atm it might conflict and certainly won't upgrade from a previous Award mod version know what I mean? ;).

I also assume you have "My Ranks" from this modification and "Ranks" from another mod perhaps a DB Tech mod or something to do w/ ranks as well?

Second image, sure let me see what I can whip up, about to release a update here shortly and will include that information.

Third image I'm assuming is another mod conflicting.. what else do you have installed that interacts with your postbit?
