In ranks.php find:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start makedepthmark #######################
function construct_depth_mark($depth, $depthchar, $depthmark = '')
{
// repeats the supplied $depthmark for the number of times supplied by $depth
// and appends it onto $depthmark
    for ($i = 0; $i < $depth; $i++)
    {
        $depthmark .= $depthchar;
    }
    return $depthmark;
} 


Replace with:

PHP Code:

if (!function_exists('construct_depth_mark'))
{
// ###################### Start makedepthmark #######################
    function construct_depth_mark($depth, $depthchar, $depthmark = '')
    {
    // repeats the supplied $depthmark for the number of times supplied by $depth
    // and appends it onto $depthmark
        for ($i = 0; $i < $depth; $i++)
        {
            $depthmark .= $depthchar;
        }
        return $depthmark;
    }
} 


*The reason for the error is simple, as you can see by the second part of your error this "function" was called again because it's defined twice - in short the guys who originally made the Awards mod (which this is a conversion of that) simply copy/pasted the function to suite the mod not taking into affect they should not. I've wrapped it in a simple conditional to check for the function first. Update will be in the next release, in the meantime please edit ranks.php accordingly if you encounter this issue as CharlieDelta has .

**Also, if your reading this and have the "Yet Another Awards System" installed you should do this same exact edit in awards.php
