You can use the plugin interface (CDP, Custom Data Provider, ZIP\extras\CDP Custom Data Provider) to create and read such a field.

I'm not sure about this limit number field. Please describe more.

Well, basically, I'm trying to get functionality so that one (or maybe two) users get a certain award each month. So this field ('number of users who can have this award') would be set to either 1 or 2.

I'm trying to get something which is like "first place" and "second place" in a competition. Perhaps there's a better way to do this.

Thank you very much, Phalynx! It worked!

Best mod ever...

Merry x-mas all!

There is already such a field, called position in Query, GOLD/SILVER/BRONZE.

Yes, merry X-Mas for all!

Installed. Excellent Mod

does this plugin work with user groups?
We currently are using 3.8x
I have a long list of user groups set so that each time a member wins any of the photo contests for the first time, i.e. POTW,POTM,POTQ either 1st place or 2d place, I tag them for being a member of that group so that the winner ribbon appears in their profile.
see example of this user. The ribbon colors match the larger ribbons that go under their winning photos within Photopost.


http://www.bytephoto.com/forums/member.php?u=21551

We are currently in the process of upgrading to vB 4,1 on our test site and I have noticed that the ribbons no longer show up in the user profiles.
I need a way to display all those ribbons in the profiles.
Right now this is the only way for me to keep track of all the past and current winners.
The website has been in existence since 2003, but we purchased it the end of 2009.
Since I created all the new user groups, ribbons myself, I spent months going going through all the winners each week and tagging their profiles.
So this is the reason I need it to work with my already created usergroups linked to the rankings with the ribbons.
Thanks for your help

Please explain more. vBExperience does not touch your usergroups, as long as you are not using promotions based on points. Even then only the primary group is changed.

Your site requires an account to view userprofiles.

sorry, I forgot about the profiles not showing to non registered users.

I created the rankings that work along with the user groups.
Here is a screen shot of how it would look under vB 3.8x

I also created a profile field category called Contest Wins with sub cats of POTW, POTM, POTQ & POTY.
Each time a member wins I add one more to the count of the wins they have already won.
I was hoping to eventually use that data to create automated updated reports of a contest leader board so members can view it.

You can see how the profile is setup here.

Thanks for the screenshot. I still see no connection to vBExperience, beside the automatic promotion to another usergroup based on points.

Question: I have only installed this recently.

How do I disable the display of Downloads award from the public experience awards page?

It displays to visitors, yet I do not have Downloads II installed.

It even has a member awarded this award, even though no downloads have ever occured or existed.

tia

This award counts also for attachment downloads and LDM. You can disable it via AdminCP, Experience, Manage Awards

vBExperience 4.0.4 has been updated to RC 2!

Changelog:
- Fixed several smaller issues
- Redesigned Insight to avoid css problems with dark styles
- German translation for 4.0.4 completed
- New plugin for Triple Triad

Thank You!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your great work,

Thank You !

The awards manager, as the others, is way more powerful than I thought, hence not using it yet.

But that fixed it.

Installed / updated and working

4.1 PL2

NOTE: Found 2 graphical errors

1) Missing /xperience/icons/icon_achievements_default.png

Which is called for on Achievement Tab for New Achievement!

2) Insight Experience page there is a small text over lap over User Avatar & Group Icon

I Updatet vbex 4.0.4 from rc1 to rc2, now I have a little css Problem in my Template.

See Screenshot, how can I solve this Problem?

I get this error: Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in xperience.php on line 1195

Both issues fixed in next version, probably released today.

Which vBulletin and PHP version are you using?

Vb 4.0.8
Php 5.3.2

Fixed in next version.

Whats going on with my points, I have 8,454 but vbookie cash is -757,399 when I go on vbookie I have -5855 so can't bet!!

Its all gone a bit funny, also I can't donate my vbookie cash!!! I try to it says its done it but it never leave my account and the person I donate it to never gets anything!!

Did you installed the vBookie Plugin directly after you installed vBookie?
Please check also the log if the points you were given away are really not given away to someone other.

ok thanks for the quick reply, i'll have a look now.

I did install the vbookie plugin just after I installed vbookie but yesterday I installed the pluging again (overwriting the previous one) but made no difference) I can donate other points, just no the vbookie cash or vbookie bets.

From the atachment you can see some text is hidden by pic. Is the a way to correct this? Otherwise amazing mod
www.britmovie.net/britforum

First, awesome mod.

Second, I'm not having success with the "vBookie Cash" field for awards. I've just installed the vbookie plugin and the "vBookie Bets" field works great! But when I test an award using the "vBookie Cash" field, I get zeroes for all users.

Any ideas?

Sorry, I have no clue why this happens. I'm not using vBooking actively so I cannot even reproduce this.

See above, will be fixed in next version.

Did you already recounted after installing the plugin?

how can i change the position in the main navigation bar?

Currently not supported. You will have to disable the vBExperience nav bar and add your own where you need it.

okay. can you tell me the code i have to add? i find the place on my own i think.

greetings

Take a look at this template:
xperience_tab

Also, please click "Mark as Installed" to get further support.

Is it possible to remove the experience tab from user profiles?

Yes. AdminCP, Plugins & Products, Plugin Manager, Search for the plugin called "vBExperience (member block)" and deactivate it.

Installed and working

4.1 PL2

NOTE: Small graphical error with text over group icon (though the avatar bug is fixed now)

and

xperience/images/icon_achievements_default.png

is still missing

Cannot confirm. Please check if you need to revert the template xperience_user_block_sg

Cannot confirm. Please check if you have extracted the file from the ZIP.

Thank you very much :).

Everything looks great except it is extremely slow when viewing xperience.php (a board of around 20K members)

No option to revert that in my template, so I'm assuming its still good.

As for the missing photo....

Experience > Achievements > New Achievement!

That is where is is looking for icon_achievements_default.png
