Hi all,
Is there any hack I can obtain that changes the user ranking system so that users obtain ranks through ratings? Perhaps a dropdown box and you can vote the user 1-5 or whatever, like the thread rating system. Thanks,

That'd be sweet! Anyone? :)

More along the lines of user rating system......

If comeone does do this, it would be very nice. Many sites have a buy/sell/trade forum. Unfortunately, there are way to many dishonest people out there, and it would be very nice to rate members which have proven to be trustworthy. It could even be somewhat like ebay's user rating system. This is very much needed at so many different sites.

Thanks,

This sounds similar like the karma hack made by Overgrow... which is a pay-for hack if you will

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=26997

look at that thread for details.

I did a hack like this the last days

User can be rated 1 to 5 points. If a user votes another one twice the old value will be updated.

Ratings are displayed like this in the users profiles and posts:

http://www.exchange-board.org/forum/images/3points.gif
http://www.exchange-board.org/forum/images/4points.gif
http://www.exchange-board.org/forum/images/5points.gif

Users can be rated in profile, see attachment.

Wow, thats what I was looking for. Are you planning on releasing the hack? If so please contact me .... JRWappel@hotmail.com

Thanks,

This would indeed be valuable to get rid of those people whose credibility is an issue...

I like the karma hack, am willing to pay, but no reply for overgrow. I'm waiting until someone has something like it!

I'd be interested in this one, too - I also tried to contact overgrow, but he seems to avoid these forums nowadays ... no reply via email, either :(

Still working on it. I just added 2 more functions which I'm currently testing offline:
[list=1][*]Let users decide whether they want to be rated by others or not[*]Show who rated but of course not how ;)[/list=1]

Actually I'm not really sure about these functions, but some of my users requested them.

*bump*
:D

Heres another

Up again

any ETA on when this will be released exchange???

Has this ever been made? :)

Hi guys,
I spent all of yesterday putting together a user rating hack-a-majig. If any is interested in seeing it I'll put up some screenshots of what I have so far.

Thanks.

EXCHANGE,
I would realy like the get ahold of that type of hcak... Do you have any idea of when it will be ready for you to release?

And nandastone, Id like to see screenshots of that also... ^^

Here are the two sections I regard "finished".

Users with higher rating (I'm going to change it from rating to something else when I think of it :\) and posts influence another user's rating more heavily when they rate them. It's something around:

changeToUserRating = (myPosts/postTotalDivider)+(myRating/ratingTotalDivider)+1

with a few more constraints (can't go below urNegativeRatingLimit or above urPositiveRatingLimit rating) worked in.

Anyways, tell me what you think.

Attachment 1 is the main sorta thingy :)

Attachment 2 is the title admin section.

More sections soon, working on them.

Ya, that second one is like the star hack that was made... I was doing the same thing that you are showin in that screen... But i want to be able to have diffrent images for diffrent styles... =/

Anyways... its lookin good man... ^^

-Syphin

I'll add that to my features todo list ;).

Just wanted to mention that it's different from the stars due to the fact that it's driven by user rating. I'm sure you figured that out but I just wanted to piont it out anyway :).

cool... ^^

And ya, I knew that.. lol I just meant that second pic reminded me of the star hack one... :p If i were able to use dif images, id be sure to use it.. ^^

Good job from what i can see so far.. ^^


-Syphin

I like that hack...thats a very nice...I would like to use that when it and if it comes out

You mean different images for different styles right?

The images are totaly customizable, you can use whatever you want, even change it to normal text titles if you like.

I'll try get the different images for different styles done later. Let you know when it's ready.

Yup, thats exactly what u meant... ^^

And aight.. thnx... ^^


-Syphin

Looking cool....any ETA? :)

Next few days I guess. I'm not a very good coder so it might take longer :\

Admin:

wow, will you post this hack. i would really like to get this. looks really cool;)

I currently have the hack in working condition it's just that I'm trying to implement more features. If you guys just want it as it is then I'll try and get it ready.

I have made quite a few changes in around 6 normal files, 6 admin files and 7 or so templates so I'm not really sure how to make installation instructions for it. The tables are also modified and some templates as well. This is my first hack so I'm a bit confused as how to go about it. Any advice?

Thanks.

hey man if you want i can help you put it together, i have put some stuff together, and would be more than happy to help you out on this. and its really seems like i great hack;)

Guys,
What do you reckon the chances of me getting perhaps $10 for the hack once I've fully finished it and added lots of features?

well if you ask me... umm maybe some. cuz its at a good price, but if people are going to get a hack like this they are going to go for the overgrowns kama hack, but i can tell you i would bye it from you...;)

Oh... I thought Overgrow wasn't selling his hack anymore. Is that right? I'll be adding lot's more features to make it more worthwhile :)

really? i heard they still are but not publicly, but go for it i would like to help you out if you are interested, for some strange reason i have time since i have about 1 member on my board... me;)

I'm not really pro-selling hacks. Notice how many quality hacks there are in the hack forum, many of them taking lots of time. The purpose of a hack is so one person shares their idea and work with other people. That's what these boards are about imo.

true true but i know alot of people on these forums have made hacks but have not posted them or will ever do so.

Released my Hack here

Anyway selling hacks sucks. If you want to sell something code your own forums ;)

Okey dokey then...

So, do you guys want it now or when I have put a few more features into it?

The features I'm looking at implementing right now are:

• Different title graphics/text for different styles.
• Custom titles.
• Top 10 Rated Users.

I also have some minorish changes to make and code the clean up and comment. I don't really have much time to work on it so this might take a few more days. Whatda think?

hmm.. well i could wait for you to finish the hack, but i am interested to see what the code looks like

I think the top 10 rated users would be nice to have, maybe as a seperate .php link or something. But I would really like to see it in whatever incarnation it's in now. =)

Hi guys,
You can view a demo forum with user rating enabled at:
Test Forum

Tell me what you think and PLEASE report ANY bugs you find. Improvement/feature suggestions would be great too.

Thank you.

note: the server is really slow ;)
