Sadie, you ever figure out how to get it to work?

seriously i dont get this hack, whta is it supposed to do, unless i can assign groups of people to use different rank systems i dont see much point in it either

You make different rank system, they get to puick which one they want to use.

I run a site for an author. I have male ranks, female ranks, warrior, ranks, ect...

Although I still need a fix for the ranks not staying

Well, yes and no. I think what I did to get it to work was to update user titles in the admin cp.

Unfortuneately, now my host has upgraded to php 4.2 I think, and some of them are reverting again. I did the fix on vbulletin.com, but my boards are still acting funny. :(

But maybe try updating the titles if you haven't already :)

I have LOTR boards, so I have a different set of usertitles for each character type (Hobbits, Elves etc). It's just something fun for the members :)

not a bad hack nice!

I updated the users ramnks and it resets them all to what they shoudl be, but they revert as soon as a person posts.

I know it can be annoying, all i suggest is unistalling this until someone comes up with the oslution

It asks me to find "
$gettitle=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT title FROM usertitle WHERE minposts<=$user[posts] ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1");"

that is not in the document
there is one very similar that says
$gettitle=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT title FROM usertitle WHERE minposts<=".intval($user['posts'])." ORDER BY minposts DESC LIMIT 1");

Can i ask something? I want to make this so that a usergroup can be exclusively assigned a rank set
Eg.
Borg Usergroup gets the Borg Rankset.

And i dont want my users to be able to change their rankset, i want to be the only one to do this. How would i do this?
