The Rank System is a variation of the Awards System by Hancho, it will work with the Awards Mod 100% as seen in the screenshots (See the admin panel screen shot, the Awards Mod is listed below the Ranks mod!).

Version Updates:
10/19/2008 - Updated to version 0.0.2, Optional BB Code in Install.txt IF you want to approve ranks by a simple click! this must be setup via the options with correct thread ID's etc. After setup when a member request an award it post the request to a new thread (the one you specified) and then simply click the Approve link to do so. The post will then be "soft deleted" and as for the user, check their profile ;). __________________________________________ General Updates: 10/21/2008 - Updated rank.php which is located in admincp folder. Please Download "Update.0.0.2-1.zip" and install in your admincp folder - without it you will receive a DB error in your admincp which will not allow you to remove a previous rank. Once you have updated, you can remove the previous ranks with success! Sorry for the coding error and thanks for using YARS! 11/15/2008 - YARS 0.0.2 Update by TheLastSuperman! This update includes: - Syntax Corrections - Update to .php files - Update to .xml files Hopefully this will help the 3.7.3 members who have installed ;) but please remember it was only tested and works well with 3.7.3 RC1. - robwestpdx - Diniska - Nadeemjp Bugs: - Possible warning in admincp when in use: Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/admincp/rank.php on line 964 Please report ASAP if so via --> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=194043 Possible Updates in the next 1-3 weeks: - Define Usergroups allowed to use (grant etc) * This option is available to users you have assigned as moderators via ModCP just not specific usergroups yet! 11/16/2008 - YARS Quick Fix and Zip Package contents correction. Update! Sorry about this guys, one simple mistake on my part. In line 3 of the XML product file I used & instead of AND (habit) so it was not importing! Fixed! - Removed the old YARS.0.0.2.1.zip and re-uploaded the correct package w/ the same name. - Included the YARSxml.zip which is just the product itself for those who DL'd the syntax slighted xml. S-MAN __________________________________________ Template Change Updates: 10/25/2008 - Updated w/ alternate code for postbit for a different display option! Example: In the screenshot provided, the normal way to display can be the Rank along w/ a border and title saying "Ranks Showcase" now if you want to display as just the image w/o a border as seen in the darker style screenshot - When you edit template "postbit" do not follow the normal instructions, follow these! (Or simply remove the old code version and follow info below! Find: Code:
<if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></td></if>Code:
<!-- show ranks --> |

Running version: 3.7.3 Patch Level 1
I have noticed in my changes to templates, the find text is not there. How do I go about adding or changing if it is not there. |
Hmmm, custom Style I presume? I have run across this before as we have over 5 styles installed in our forums.... The main is white, then for each tournament they have their own style to make it feel more like "home" or just to feel like they are here for their single game if they don't want to play in the other tournaments.
PM me a copy of your templates code and I'll see if I can help else I'll bug my hero JurGradi! Whenever you have time :D - I will be on this weekend, I have to check a template of my own for FiMeTi and Wacko who had a question regarding his one-click thread approval of the ranks mod so best bet is to get it to me by tomorrow so I can schedule you in ;). S-MAN |
i think my template changes will help with this mod too

Allright Fimeti.....
Find (or similar): Code:

<!-- show awards --> |
HAHA! Great! 5 stars for ur support man!
Thanks very much for your help. Best Regards FiMeTi |
No problem! It's the name that brings it out of me ;)
|
I have a warning in the Admin cp:
Warnung: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/admincp/rank.php (Zeile 81) what must i do? |
Updated for those who wish to display the Ranks w/o the Border and title "Ranks Showcase"
It is only a template edit! See post #3 for details and a "How-To"! S-MAN |
Quote:
If not it may just be some code conflicting, in that case please provide a copy of your rank.php code contents via PM ;) Edit: Actually, double check all your template edits!!! And what exactly were you trying to do in admincp.... give an award, setup one etc? S-MAN |
im getting those errors as well and its the same error code but on a diff line for adding a new one, rank manager and giving a rank, plus when i click on the rank link in the nav it shows the same error as well. i have went back and checked on my edits all seem to check out fine but i will check again.
EDIT: Actually the first memberinfo edit is diff for some reason |
Ok, check your PM's ;)
|
i dont have a PM?
|
I would say the single one thing that need to be added for me to be able to use this when I launch my live update is the ability to restrict to certain usergroups for management. I don't want my regular moderators managing this. My site is to large to manage that many. I would need this restricted down to Super Moderators or have the option to clarify specific groups.
So I hope you do add that ability. :) |
Okay nvm man i got it figured out all you have to do is go ahead and set up everything to include creating the ranks and from there all the warnings are gone. Nice mod thanks

When creating a new Category (In [Add new Rank Category), i cannot choose a Parent Category (even if there is another category created, the option is only None).
It is happening with someone else? I'm using 3.7.3 Patch Level 1 |
installed .. thanks a million :)

So look for an answer tonight or Sat (What?! Halloween friday and I have kids :p) |

I only put this in the 3.7 add-on due to another member here installing and testing which he has the same version you do and everything works fine except for his One-Click Thread Approval.... So yours should work ;) Quote:
Ladies and Gents, I'm here for support but sometimes you might just need to double-check the settings within and make sure you have it all setup properly. If you don't understand how something works just ask no matter how the question comes across and I'll do my best ;). S-MAN |
Great mod, tho having issues installing....
stuck at step 6 Quote:

Ahhh, my apologies... we included it in the last update ;)
I will revise the install instructions this weekend! Just double-check to make sure they approve IF your setting it up to post the request in a thread which they should as they do on ours plus I just fixed our Yet Another Awards System which had a problem. S-MAN |
it is good i shall install it tonight
|
It is :D Just ignore the part about the bbcode as we added that in the last release ;)
I will have the files and install.txt updated this weekend as promised :D S-MAN |
