Hi,

I am looking to do 2 things:

1: Set the number of official winners to just 1 per contest.
2: Remove the "Awarded" image from postbit for previous winners.

How may I do this?

Thanks for your help!

These are good options to include +1 :up:

How can I put the nominate button in every thread?
I mean I can now butwhen the user clicks the button it nominates the thread, I want to have the nominate button in every thread but, when the user clicks que nominate button it will nominate the whole post not a thingle thread... can that be done?
Tnx!

I suggest you shutdown your board from members and run it. It takes a long time (for me took 45 mins and i had to import it a couple times since the script timed out on me).

I also suggest that vbboarder adds a warning for members with large forums, telling them that it will cause downtime since tables will be locked waiting for the fields to be added.

Yeah I am experiencing the same problem.

Need to be careful if you have A LOT of posts in your forum. I am letting it ride right now and will post an update once it is done.

Hopefully it does not crash MySQL. :(

**** EDIT ****

Well it seemed to install fine. However, it does seem to spike the CPU/MySQL usage whenever you hit the Hall of Fame or do any activity with this plugin.

Or, simply turn off your forums and install (that is the safest way!). There is an option to do this, as you might recall, but most people do not do it :D

I upgrade last night from 1.6.3 version to this one 2.0.2 and now things are messed up... nominations are not holding and when I go back and look at the nominated topic it is not nominated... and it does not send it to the poll.

I knew I should not have upgraded... I always have problems.

Also there were no templates to revert anywhere. I went over everything.

What should I do?

also when I look at nominate_topic.php?do=shownominationawardswinners page there are no longer any winners and there were 2 yesterday.

vbboarder

10-14-2009 03:50 PM

@chick: you probably upgraded wrong because EVERY template was changed so every template starting with 'nominate_topic' needs to be reverted. If you did not edit any templates, then no templates need reverting. As stated in instruction #3:

Quote:

This mod will work only if ALL templates are reverted since major changes were done to them.

chick

10-14-2009 04:35 PM

Yes I never touched the templates so there were none to revert.

What should I do? I reinstalled again and overwrote everything, checked all settings etc...

now.....

NOMINATE doesn't work and throws a pop-up window javascript error in IE7 which I have never seen before.
This pages doesn't work /nominate_topic.php?do=findallnominations (nothing there)
This page doesn't work nominate_topic.php?do=shownominationawardswinners (I had 2 previous winners)

I have to get this to work, should I uninstall completely and lose everything I have thus far the do a fresh install?????

Can I go back to 1.63 if I overwrite everthing?????

Its funny because I have your version 1.63 working 100% everything works on another site and I don't dare touch it.

Right I've read most of this thread, but I'm still not able to see any buttons/images ect, I've uploaded the images into my custom skin, but to no avail.

http://revolution-forums.com/images/...nate_topic.png

That is from the correct file path but it does not show up in the forum.

Below is a screen shot of what I see, I just don't see any buttons, great mod btw I hope I can get it working as it would be a great feature for my forum.

It is impossible to help you if you don't provide any information.

Oh sorry!

Before nominate_topic_stamps_box had this in it

<div id="nominate_topic_stamps_box_$post[postid]">$nominate_topic_stamps_box</div>

When I change to

this

Code:

</td>

<td>

<div id="nominate_topic_stamps_box_$post[postid]">

$nominate_topic_stamps_box

</td>

this happenes (See screen shot)

Everything seemed to work flawless till no. Under the first post I have that informational table which says that 4 people votes. But it only displays 3 users. How is it possible.? In the poll thread it also displays "4".

vbboarder, I had to uninstall this completely and go back to the previous version which I now have working 100% properly now. Thank you for this mod.

My online status is always hidden, so is my smod and another admin but it shows up... err is that just because I can view invisible members? My members are not allowed to be invisible.

Cableguy69

10-17-2009 05:44 PM

VBBoarder any chance you can help me? I set up the mod as per the read me on my board, but icons buttons ect were not showing, so I set up a test board brand new install no other mods and I get the same results.

I've double checked all images to make sure everything has gone into the correct directories ect, but still no luck.

As you can see from the image the TOTW Award shows in the post bit, I can generate polls ect but because threads cannot be nominated, there are no poll options.

@Cableguy69: I only have time to help in this thread. Review the troubleshooting tips again and check the actual source code of your showthread pages - search for the nominate_topic image to verify if: 1. the <img> tag was inserted by the plugin, and 2. the url of the image is correct (image will not show if url is not correct).

Cableguy69

10-17-2009 06:42 PM

OK now were getting somewhere, the <img> url hasn't been inserted into the showthread so were should it be placed?

and how should it appear?

Should it go after this to get it to appear on the right of the quick reply button?

Code:

                <tr>

                        <td class="tcat" colspan="2">

                                <if condition="$show['quickreply_collapse']"><a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('quickreply');"><img id="collapseimg_quickreply" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_quickreply].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></if>

                                $vbphrase[quick_reply]

                        </td>

                </tr>

Hi! I accidentally uninstalled previous version of this mod, and lost all other nominations from before. Is there any way to reload them? Are they still on the database?

Well, it seems like you're missing a template_hook. Insert either before or after the quick reply and within the same td cell: $template_hook[postbit_controls]

If you have a 'post' sql table backup before you uninstalled the old mod, then you can restore your old awards - otherwise, no.

The usergroup you're using to view the nominations probably don't have the permissions to view nominations and/or nominate - check VB Options > Nominate Topic settings.

Please tell me about fix it?

Hi Vbboarder I've added the hook like you said, but the nominate button still doesn't show.

What I noticed before I added the hook, I have a private forum set up just for me, to keep certain details in ect. On posts 9 there was the nominate button. I pressed it and sure enough the post was flagged as nominated and the nomination poll was created.

I have no idea what is going on with.

Also is this how the template should look?

Code:

                <tr>

                        <td class="tcat" colspan="2">

                                $template_hook[postbit_controls]

                                      <if condition="$show['quickreply_collapse']"><a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('quickreply');"><img id="collapseimg_quickreply" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_quickreply].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></if>

                                $vbphrase[quick_reply]

                        </td>

                </tr>

Code:

                <tr>

                        <td class="tcat" colspan="2">

                             <if condition="$show['quickreply_collapse']"><a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('quickreply');"><img id="collapseimg_quickreply" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_quickreply].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></if>

                                $vbphrase[quick_reply]

                                $template_hook[postbit_controls]

                        </td>

                </tr>

@ Cedric_FP: no, it's hard coded to 3 winners.

@ tiengnhat: are you sure you upgraded correctly? This was an error that occurred in the pre-2.0 release. Can't help you wo. an sql error report or actual sequence of actions that caused it.

vbboarder

10-20-2009 06:44 PM

@ Cableguy69: Yes, your edits are correct - either one is fine.

I don't really understand your question. Why did you edit the postbit if the nominate button was already showing up in your private forum?

Cableguy69

10-20-2009 08:58 PM

What I mean is the button only shows in a locked down area only visible to me, the problem is the nominate button only shows in posts 9, which is the last post in that thread. The button does not appear anywhere else out of 20 or so categories.

I did the edit in a last ditch attempt to get it working.

I also tried to add this piece of code directly into the post bit as I could see it in the page source.

Code:

                                <a href="nominate_topic.php?do=nominate_topic_add_user&amp;p=17743&amp;securitytoken=1256074968-506f86c196cd3de8a485f42502d12c1430b68a94" id="nominate_topic_button_17743"  onclick="nominate_topic_add_user(17743); return false;" style="display:none" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/styles/BlissfullySimple/buttons/nominate/nominate_topic.gif" alt="Nominate this post" border="0" /></a>

Unfortunately that made no difference either.

I'll try uninstalling and starting over fresh, I can't see it making any difference though.

Ah right now I've got it working, reverted to the default setting and it's there although it's not quite yet working how I want it to lol.

Cheers Vbboarder. I made some Icons for my board, so I thought I'd share em with anybody who wants them.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

They're saved as Transparent editable .png files so fonts colour ect can be changed.

I've posted them here.

The names of the images need to be exactly the same as the ones they are supposed to replace, otherwise the wrong images will show. Thanks for sharing - they look great ;)

Regarding 'TOTW/F/M' phrase, you need to search for that term in the Phrase Manager - I forgot the exact name for it right now.

Glad you finally got it working :D Yeah, you should used the default settings 'cause those are the ones that I tested the most so they're most likely to be reliable.
