Whats the problem?

I just installed on my 3.6.2 board without any problems. It works but just not 100%

1st, the spelling is pretty bad, i need to know where to find it to fix the issues. I assume English isn't the authors 1st language.

The Highscore of Knobs im Game 9-Ball was beatn by Dirty_Sanchez. Go and get it back.


"HighScore" should be "high score" (2 words, no capital H)
"im" should be "in"
"beatn" should be "beaten"

The real issue is that when my Arcademaster posts it doesn't look right.

This is the plugin making a post
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

This is what it looks like when i log in as the Arcademaster and post.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

So i downloaded the xml file nd upped it as a product ...

Under which exisiting Username we post the New Thread. (Look at the PostUser ID User name GameMaster (used his id not name)

Highscore Thread ID
The Thread ID where we append the New Highscore Posting. (i posted a thread in his name and copyed the id of it )

Foren ID
In which Forum we create a new Thread. ( i wrote the forum id tht the thread was posted in )

And saved everything ... but no joy yet so far . Wth am i doing wrong !!!

Thnks in anticipation
Wengi

how i did it,

username, i didn't use the id# i used the name of the user, it's case sensitive so make sure you type it in correctly, i made a user "ArcadeMaster" then put "ArcadeMaster" in the user ID box.

The thread # and forum#, you don't need to enter both, it's either going to make a new thread, or make a new post in an existing thread, you pick which one you want it to do. You do this by going to:

Plugins & Products >> Plugin System..
check, New Post on Highscore or check New Thread on Highscore ,then Save

i checked "new thread" and then in the options mentioned above i left the thread # blank and put the # of the forum i wanted the new thread posted in.

Hope this helps, the directions aren't very.

I have come to realize although this hack works it isn't written very well. It's seems kinda rigged together.
As you can see from my screen shots above there is an issue with how these posts are created. If this is just me someone please let me know.

Nice catch!
I never read it lol
yet its been posted many times on my forum

doesn't work on 3.6.2 :(

only shows:

Username
Highscore Thread ID
Foren ID
Highscore Thread Title

Close Highscore Thread

NO USER ID

anybody can help?

@Shazz: whats the name (or url) of the "recent threads" plugin shown on your pic in the left?

The Text for the Posting comes from 4 Phrases. You can edit it by yourself.

Hope this helps !!

I need to upgrade my arcade but when I do I will install this to... Thanks for sharing!

what is the message gonna be like ??

Works on my 3.6.2. board, except the post is being created an assigned a username rather than looking like a post made by a user. anything is type in the username box in the setup will show up as the user making high score post, it doesn't have to be a real member.


That recent thread thing is a module on vbadvanced

Sorry, I read all the topics here.

I create an user: GameMaster
This user have id: 3

With this user I create an thread in forum 33
The thread number is 35

I went to the admin and disabled the by plugins New Thread.
I enabled the New Post plugin

In VBB Setting I open the part for configuration of this plugin

Postuser-ID: 3
The Thread ID where we append the New Highscore Posting:35
In which Forum we create a new Thread: 33
Highscore Thread Title: Neuer Highscore im Spiel :
Reply Allowed ? (open/close Thread): NO

So, when I make a new highscore or I beat one old, nothing happen.

I give the User ID Super Moderator rights.

No error messages, nothing. But no post apear.

My VBB 3.63
IBProArcade: 2.5.7
This plug in: 1.02
vBux 1.5.8

Sorry for my bad english.

Regards from Germany

If anyone can please help

Pulling my hair out

Thanks for your persistant asking for an answer to that. :)

Saved me the trouble of having to ask and means I can now get it working on my forum easily too. :)

Working perfect with the new arcade installed :)

I installed, played a game and got no message. Then after rereading the thread, I found the steps by stangger5 a few pages back and put those changes on and reloaded the XML, turned off posts and enabled threads. Played another game, got high score, but no message.

Does a cron job need to be set for this to run, or does it not work if it is the first score for a game?

The Highscore of storpappa im Game Breakout was beatn by caigan. Go and get it back

Looks like a few typos

so exactly what file should i be using for 3.6.4?

or does it not work at all?

It should work.?

it doesnt, i was getting that query not found error

This is a good tool, but is it working "properly?"

Anything to increase threads and post is a definite plus.

I too have an arcade...hmmm..I think I will wait until I finish my forum jump menu in the navbar.

stop by and check out what I have - the main and 2 add-ons all working great.

I do have an issue with too many categories running off to the right instead of wrapping, but this mod for notifications is working fine - fix the typo's though

Yes its working properly..

Working fine :)

on 3.6.2


what about 3.6.4?


you guys are offering everything except assistance

I don't understand how this wouldn't work with 3.6.4
Theres no difference between 3.6.2 and 3.6.4
Just code fixes

I found the categories per row in the options - amazing what you find when you use the biblical method

Ok, this hasn't posted anything on my forum.

I'm assuming I did something wrong.

Where can find forum id and thread id?

I'm guessing that is it.

Also to clarify, for the user who will do the posting, do I have to add the user id or the username?

*Uninstalled*

This mod needs work!

Its a little tricky getting it to work, its been posted many different ways. But It does work..

it seems is if it isnt the mod thast needs work, but the directions

which is a shame

Thats what I ment to say :)

so are u or anybody else ready to submit some decent simple instructions to intalling this mod

Well its simple plug in, and then follow up with vBoptions to this plugin, theres only a couple of choices really

i only get the "no users matched your query" error

after i upgraded arcade to 2.5.9 version this mod doesnt work anymore ... !!

any idea ?

Im fine when I upgraded to 2.5.9 :|

Worked fine after updateing for me...

Try uninstalling,,then reinstall...
