hmm well ok waiting

thanks installed :) Finally

Cool, does this come with any pics?

what I was waiting for .. installed :)

Any benefits in upgrading to this 3.6.5 version ?
I'm running vbulletin 3.6.4 and installed the award system for 3.5.X a few months ago and had no problems.

Me too. Just wondering if there were many changes.

Any more images than just the blue?

Nope, I dont design any set of awards. Wish if anyone can design a set for this hack :)

Not big changes. I released actually because people asking again and again for a version for 3.6.x, so I give out one.

beside some minor modification, there're few other changes:

- [2.1.3] Add a link "Give award to user" in admincp menu and change some link name.
- [2.1.3] Notify awarded user by email option
- Change "Issue reason" from input to textarea, so you can give more descriptive reason when giving award(s).
- Allow user to issue/remove awards in In ModCP (I myself dont like this, but it has been requested). Remember, no permission check in there yet, so anyone who can access ModCP can use it)



If you use the old one (2.1.2) without problem, you dont really need to upgrade.

Hello. i will upload a PSD with many award medals i did for another portal

I will do it as soon i get home Cheers

Thank you! Ive been waiting for this!!

Hello all

Sharing my PSD here for you to play with. the psd file is sliced so if you make changes
you can easy "save optimized as" and they are splitted and named .....

Hope you guys liked them enjoy ...

Regards Krister

@krister. That medals zip is corrupted, please reupload

Thanks!

Krister,

Can I provide your award file with the package?

ps. do you have a bigger version by any chance?

That would be great, as i aint smart with psd's

Yes feel free to include it to the package. and a little credit :)

Yes sure i can . i will upload the pics itself also. they are transparent
and should work on all skins. give me little time only

Thanks for like them ..

Works great for me on 3 computers. i used Winrar 3.6 when i zipped them
can be found here. www.rarsoft.com

Sorry for the extra work

I've just installed and I got this from showthread

in db, the column is named awardid instead of award_id

strike that, I was looking at wrong column. But I still have error. I am on mysql 5.0.22 and php 5.16

Installed and looks great.. I have a question how can I post the awards to show up under the members name in the postbit/postbit_legacy

Actually I was right. In table award_user au it's awardid

This is getting juicy for me My award_user table is way different from your product

I solved my issue by fixing the table. I have no idea where that came from. Was empty anyway.

Great work, mtha! Tanks. ;)

Found the culprit! The Nova Awards was using that table. Lucky for me this is a very simple mod, so I just made a new table for it and changed the handful of instances where they were referring to it

upgraded find from previous version but still have same problem that i had before (Thought it was to do with using wrong version for my vb)

when i click request award this text appears at the top of the page

i know its refuring to vb advanced templates but it only happens on the award request page

any ideas?

Any help on this please

dont know for sure but i would guess you need to paste the code for the postbit/postbit legacy somwhere close to under $post[musername] (maybe after the if command)

I'm currently using your 3.5 version on my 3.6.5 vbulletin. How easy would it be to upgrade this to the new version without uninstalling the old one?

I'd like to keep it up-to-date incase of any future upgrades to this system.

I had to make a few template changes to get your 3.5 version to work with my current style so would hate to have to uninstall and reinstall the new version.

Thanks for all the effort you have put into this, it's much appreciated.

i recently updated mine by just uploading all files again and installing the xml file in overright mode..

it seems to be working fine

Here is only the pic files for them who not know about photoshop and just need pics....

i Will do a new set with different looks and bigger in size. post a screenshot later

Cheers ...

Thanks mate, cool mod

Was play around in photoshop anyone interessted in this kind. see screen

Can be a new set with medals ....

Nice medal, very nice.

All my current medals are 25x60, so as long as I can resize around that then they'll be great.

this messed up my forum

Great mod but I have one problem... The award description is limited in length and there isnt enough space for me to make a proper description for certain awards.

Is there a way to lengthen this?
