You can usually find it on your websites control panel.

There is an easier way, go to your vB Admin Control Panel > Import & Maintenance > Execute SQL Query

Make sure you edit includes/config.php first so you have access to the query runner:)

Thanks for your help :D

Hey Guys,

This is probably piss easy, but is there anyway to have the contributors marked under a certain usergroup? for eg, if I have a subscription which adds a usergroup, can I have that automatically add the user as a contributor?

does that make sense?

its late here... :)

Working fine for me on the member info page, and the contributor list is a great addition, however it's not showing up in the postbit for me.

Also, rather than have it showing on a line by itself, how can you get the icon to appear at the end of the poster's name in both member info and postbit?

I am looking for the mult-tiered version?????

I have the multi-version on the older vB 2.3.4 and it works great but I don't see any hacks for vB 3.0.3

Here is the Multi-Tier Contributor program I have installed and works awesome. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=33441
This is what I am looking for to install on vBulletin 3.0.3

assassingod or MarkB any help in this area? MarkB helped me last time and enough folks got him to do the multi-tiered version.

Thank you again!

I have asked for this before too. I am looking for a way to display what the user contributed.

Can this be done?

/me clicks install!

Hello? anybody out there?

You should probably point out that you are refering to the second instance of " 'signature', " in admincp/users.php

Otherwise whenever an admin accesses a users account in AdminCP, their sig will be changed to "contrib"

Could someone please advise as to how I can fix this problem I'm seeing

Thanks

anybody?

No worriers...fixed

Excellent hack! :)

good thread. i recently added a contributor link but didn't use this hack as it doesn't fit the way i organize my site. i'd like to recommend you guys consider making the "CONTRIBUTOR" text a LINK to take people to the PAID subscriptions page were they can see how to join, etc. That is quite useful in promoting the paid subscriptions/contributions.

If the hack does that then apologies...

the down & dirty way is like this in postbit legacy where XXX is the usergroup # (assuming paid subscriptions add you to a secondary "contributor" usergroup...

you can also have the contributors included in the "view forum leaders" by checking that in their usergroup :)

Will this work for VB3.5?

i ran the query and i recieved an error: Table 'hxxxx_forums.userid' doesn't exist and that is running this query: ALTER TABLE user ADD contrib TINYINT(6) NOT NULL AFTER usertitle

Is there a different contibuting member hack for 3.07? or is there a way to make this query read?

There has been one released for 3.5. ;)

great hack.........thanks, hotwheels

hey nice small but handy modification! thanks for it

Works awesome!!!!!

Clicked Install.....

I got it working on my 3.0.7 forum. The img thing does not work though, you have to do some super easy editing in the postbit template to get it to work with images instead of the text, but still very easy and smooth install.

I recommend.

I think this would be great for 3.6-x, but cannot find it. Has anyone done it already? I like the idea of the text & image in the postbit. I think my members would be pleased too.

Any help? Thanks!
