DONATIONS - Icon for those who've made a donation - POSBIT or POSTBIT_LEGACY vB 3.8.x
 

What is this?

This is a little hack/mod/template change (call it what you will).

When a member makes a Money Donation to the forum - They can get rewarded by placing a small 'Gold Trophy Icon' (see Pic) beneath their username in the Postbit or Postbit_Legacy. (depandant of which one your forum uses).

Hover you mouse over that Icon Image and you will see " XXX has made a donation to the forum!"


What Do I do?


You do the following...


STEP 1; Upload the donation.gif image to your forum?s ?images/misc? folder, in your forum?s route directory.

STEP 2; Set Up a Usergroup.

This usergroup will have a ?donation Trophy? with alt code, displayed under the Member?s USERNAME in their Postbit or postbit_Legacy (dependant on which you use).

AdminCP-> Usergroups -> Add New Usergroup ->

OK.....Cool!! I can confirm that this works great on 3.8.4

I moved the code around a bit to get it where I wanted it, and I also entered it in my Postbit Legacy Template, for I don't use the Postbit. Very nice add-on, Thank you very much!! :up:
