Then you didn't upgrade properly at some point as that was fixed a few versions ago. Reupload all files to the proper locations.

My bad ... I should o' tested it myself before posting.

I just tested it and it does work.

They were talking about the Ranks mod but posted it in the Awards mod thread.

Are you working on a release for VB5?

My previous reply to this question.

i got some trouble. Everything works fine, just when i want to use awards.php it shows the normal forum and not the awards but the url is still /awards.php .
You can check it out on http://raptor-board.net
Any idea whats wrong?

edit: i run 4.0.3 version, i hope it works there too... is the only feature having trouble atm, showing awards in posts and admincp is fine...

You likely have a rewrite entry in your .htaccess (or equivalent) that is redirecting the page back to index.

Just now getting around to testing this out. Works fine but just one question:
When I go to approve the award and am taken to the 'add user award' panel. the userid value is that of the member who submitted the request and not the userid of the recipient. The name is correct. If I don't clear out the userid, the award goes to the member.
Is this a known problem? Or is this just the way it works.

You didn't upgrade to 4.0.6 properly as that bug was fixed in the most recent version. Make sure you upload all files to the correct locations, paying close attention if you've renamed admincp and/or modcp.

Will not go into a long explanation, but you are 100% correct. Will get 4.0.6 installed again on both my test and live-to-be sites. And wear my glasses next time. :D You even stated that in the 4.0.6 bug fixes.

So which ZIP file do I need to download from those to get this award system mod?

Ooops, Sorry thought I didn't submit first one.

I installed on my forums but it doesn't show up in the navbar? Any help?

You have to make your own using the navigation options in the admin panel. use the /awards link as the address

Shady,

Go to Settings-Navigation Manger-

AddTab

Target URL should be http://www.yourdomain.com/awards.php

Got it appreciate it.

Appreciate the help!

Glad to share the OE.

I'm just checking in on some other mod responses.

The one that says YaAS-4.0.6.zip.

I don't know if this was fixed in 4.0.6 or not (I'm running 4.0.5, and since I've customized the system somewhat, I'm slow to upgrade), but I found that 4.0.5 does not cache templates that show up in the "usernote.php" page (of which there are two if looking at usernotes of a user who actually has some).

Simple fix, though, and I've already done this fix on my end.

squidsk, I've used this system on other forums but now have it on a new 4.2.1 forum. It works fantastic (even though I have request and recommend turned off) but I just kicked the first error for the auto awarding (by post count). Any ideas?


Database error in vBulletin 4.2.1:

It's being triggered by a bug in the automation, but you can work around that by removing the apostrophe from the issue reason.

In the automation system, say i have 4 awards for posts. It seems to be deleting the awards for any previous post count requirements and adding the latest award. So for example

Award 1 - 50 posts
Award 2 - 100 posts.

I'll already have the Award 1 50 post award but when i finally get to 100 posts the auto systems takes a away the 50 posts award 1 and adds the 100 post award 2 in its place. Is their a way to get it not to take away a previously rewarded award?

Never mind i figured out how to get the trophies to stack up instead and instead of delete.

Hi,

all is good but no post or thread generating on award given.

any suggestion?

Have you set the setting so that a post or thread is generated and does the forum/thread the settings is pointing to actually exist and can the user granting the award post in that forum/thread?

Hello squidsk,

Is it possible to add feature to delete mass awards for a member?

Also, would it be possible to log who gives awards in the admin logs?

Thanks in advance!

yep all 3 points already done

Superbb Mod

Hi Guys,

Scenario is I want to have:

1 medal for Top 100 finishes, so all the medals are the same. However, I also want to show the actual ranking when you hover over the medal.

Top 100 medal - hover shows '2nd Overall (2013)'
Top 100 medal - hover shows '4th Overall (2013)'
Top 100 medal - hover shows '99th Overall (2013)'

The most obvious but LONG way is to make 100 awards and just change the Name/Description but that would mean I have to do 100 links to icon and images, name and description; which is not practical.

Is there a way I can show the actual rank, such as putting the rank in the 'issue reason' box? At least, it's just one box rather than replicating 100 award with links to icon, images, name, description etc.

Right now it shows all with the medals as Top 100 (2013), which at the last resort I'll just have to accept. But it's weird as the guy 2nd Overall did exceptionally well whereas the guy who finishes 99th did good.

The reason why I can't replicate the awards 100 times, is there due to the fact that I have Top 1000 medals

thanks all

Now I have skimmed through all the posts since my last visit and haven't seen this question raised.

How difficult would it be to set it up to automatically add a user to a usergroup upon issuing a certain award?

The second would be easier than the first, but I'll see what I can do.

You can put whatever you want in the issue reason, but without altering the code you would not be able to put different items into the alt tags for each award.

The only way to do it would be to alter the existing code since there are no hooks in the awards system. I might look at adding some hooks in later versions.

Did you ever see this post, Squid?

Anyway, my main point of this post: Can you please add a background to the content of the awards profile tab by default so it matches the others, such as About Me?

About Me Example: http://i.imgur.com/wc8OpvD.png

It's a simple fix, really. In the awards_memberinfo.css template, add a background to the following code:
Like so:

• Before: http://i.imgur.com/XHJ4mwx.png
• After: http://i.imgur.com/Y9tbDy8.png

Looks like this isn't as simple as I thought, because when I change Content Background in profile customization, it has no effect on the background there.

Good stuff squidsk ! Take your time it's not something I need now but it would help out a lot knowing who is giving awards to our members.

Thanks again in advance!

Which is more updated for the latest version of vb 4.x, this mod or this https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...+Awards+System

Since they are the same.

They aren't the same, they're close, since that mod is basically a copy of this one with tables and stuff renamed to enable having this modification installed twice; however, that mod has not had the last couple of updates that this one has had, which is noted by the last updated dates on the respective mod pages.

I have my maximum awards set to 3 in my postbit_legacy. Some of my members have been awarded more than 3 awards. They are asking for a way to be able to choose which awards are displayed in their postbit_legacy. Is this possible to implement?

Hi Squidsk,

So you're saying your mod is more recently updated?

I compared the two but your mod supports vb 4.0.2 while TheLastSuperman's mod support vb 4.1.x in general, and i was looking for one which supports vb 4.2.1 or closer. Does your mod supports vb 4.2.1?

But i do see your last update is recent compare to TheLastSuperman's mod.

Is there a way to import the award list and users http://forum.nihonomaru.com/awards.php from the 3.7.x version? or would i have to reissue these awards and recreate them?

It would be nice to have some sort of pagination per category like these below, is there any plan for this? I've requested this for vb 3.7.x long time ago, but it was never done for the version of vb 3.7.x, i really hope it gets implemented for the 4.x version http://www.nihonomaru.com/awards

something fun i did but not vb related http://www.nihonomaru.com/profile/yu...2/achievements

It works fine on vBulletin 4.2.1.

Anything is possible, but it isn't something I'm going to implement as letting each user select which awards, up to your maximum display amount, they want to display is not practical.

Yes, I've released updates more recently that resolved a number of issues that are still present in the ranks mod.

The version just means what is the lowest version of vbulletin that your mod supports. As the mod works on both versions there was no need to update the vbulletin version.

And yes this mod works with vb 4.2.1. The only thing it doesn't do is make use of the new navigation manager that came with vb 4.2, but you can add the navigation element manually so it isn't a deal breaker.

You don't need to do anything except make sure you're running the most recent 3.8 version
at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=196244. In theory you should be able to update from the vb3.7 version but I won't make promises and I'd recommend testing it on a test site before your live site and even then have a db backup ready to go.

Pagination per category likely won't happen, because even on your site if I used the vbulletin per page setting none of your categories would likely have more than 2 pages saving only the space of one or two awards. I would however consider making the categories collapsible.
