I installed your Star Hack and it works, but, the different colors for different levels don't. I do have the alternate image setup under the User groups.

If I set a number in the "Stars shown" then the alternate color will show. However, I would like the different levels to work up the ladder.

I removed everything and re-installed again to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Any idea what I screwed up when I installed it?

Thanks for your valuable time.

I'm not sure I completely understand the problem. Using the ladder, you can assign a different color and/or a different number of stars to each "rung". Using a usergroup default overrides this ladder, and always displays the same image no matter what.

So basically I'm not sure what you're saying not works. Can you clarify it a little more? Maybe list some examples groups and how you want them to work?

Sure...

I want the normal "ladder" to work for all groups. Earn Stars by making more posts.

Admin - Red Stars
Moderators - Green Stars
Members - Yellow Stars

The Yellow stars are set as the default under CP - User Stars

In the Admin Group, I have nothing in "Stars shown" and I have "red" in the star image shown.


In the Moderators Group, I have nothing in "Stars shown" and I have "green" in the star image shown.

In the Members Group, I have nothing in "Stars shown" and I have "yellow" in the star image shown.

In the Forums, the Yellow Stars show for everyone. If I put a number, say 5, in the "Stars Shown" field in the Admin Group, it will then show 5 red stars when by #posts, he should only have 1.

Hope that helps. See http://forums3.overclockers.ws.

Oh I see. That's not possible with my current hack. It's a good idea though...I'll probably look into it for a future version.

Sorry :(

At least I know I'm not nuts :)

Should be pretty easy, just query the image from the user record, if it's there, display it, if not, use the default.

We use that type of system on our regular Forums http://forums.overclockers.ws and the users love it. Can't wait for the import scripts so we can start using vBulletin.

Thanks for you time and sorry for the pm earlier.

I installed the hack and there were no errors, but the stars won't show, but I did update the counters

Worked fine for me.
