Thank you Husain, this is very nice :)

I think i found a small insignificant bug- in the settings group (admincp) the following should have URL, not URI...

Code:

Competition Entry Guidelines URI 

Enter the URI of the page containing the entry guidelines.

Any idea what's wrong?

seems that your error might be caused by the table prefix "db."

And another suggestion... use the same concept (start and end dates, etc)and layout to advertise special promotions that site owners are able to provide for their community. It wouldn't need to have an 'enter competition' link as the details of the promotion would go in the same place where site owners put the competition info at the moment.

Hi,

Is it possible to e-mail (instead of PM) the winners of a competition. I want to have a long running competition where users enter a bunch of information into the profile fields. If I like what they enter then I want to make them a winner and send them an e-mail automatically once they are selected as a winner.

It's under Usergroup Permissions, the second table down from top.
Admincp>Usergroups>UsergroupManager>EditUsergroup

It's not designed for users to create new competitions only for site admins.

what an awesome hack, i would love the ability to add an image in the competion, like name that band based on an album cover. Any chances of that in upcoming editions. :)

Well, how do admin select a winner. I don't see an option to do that...

jellybaby

10-09-2006 06:09 PM

if you click on competition managers it should show your competitions there and it should show "Get Winner" next to the individual competitions

You can do that using HTML in the text block.

Can this MOD be used for image competitions?
In a case where users would attach images and members could vote on them?

It's the site admin who loads new competitions.

yes, the site admin will load new competitions. But can the site admin set the competitions for users to upload pictures for polling?
TIA

criscokid

12-04-2006 10:43 AM

You could use it for 'polling'... you'd have to word the text accordingly because the mod uses sentences / phrases like 'enter competition'.

The text and images that you add uses HTML so you can do whatever you want.

Is there a way that I can have user's upload images for a contest. To see what im talking about check out my contest section on my site. I want to use this to simplify what im already doing. http://www.photoshopchop.com/Contest

I would like to see this mod edited for users to upload comps as well. Any chance this will be done?

Kodyr

07-09-2007 10:32 PM

When I go to edit the permissions of the usergroups,
The permissions arnt there >.<
What did I do wrong?

provedel

07-16-2007 07:47 PM

Is this hack dead?

Is one of favorites mods, and I find really pleased if this continues to growing...

There a several suggestions can be added to the mod, i hope its continue to be developed.

I installed it (probably without looking at the versioning).
I now use 3.6.8 and it's still working fine.

For those who dont get access, just goto usergroups and goto the bottom and set the competition settings to yes.

And, how do I add competitions?

Hoffi

11-19-2007 12:08 PM

In the Admin CP you can add them.

First: Great addon. I really like it, but I might have found a bug.

I've created a competition with a multiple line answer type and typed in the possible answers, e.g.:

Bill Gates & Steve Jobs
George Bush & Bill Clinton
etc.

In the field for the right answer I copied the text from the textfield and pasted it into the field.
When viewing the recent entries for this competition, one of the usermade entries was the correct answer, although it is displayed as wrong.
Seems to be a bug.

daFish

12-07-2007 08:15 AM

After looking at the database were the competition data is stored, I noticed that the possible answers a HTML encoded (&) while the real answer was not. After fixing this by hand, the correct answer is no more striken.
