[HTL] & [TXT] Awards/Medals/Cards Hack [vB3] · **Released**: 02-02-2004

Awards/ Medals/ Cards Hack [vB3]
By: AnimeWebby
Idea by: Lesane
Updated: 28nd May 2004 - Installer not table prefix friendly.

What this hack does:
This hack allows you to add awards, medals or cards to your vbulletin and assign these to members who you think deserve them.
These graphics will then show up in their member profile and/or their postbits depending on where you choose to add this hack.

New in v2
- Extra page showing all awards available as well as all the users who have earned an award.
- Support for full urls and relative ones for award icons.
- Support for awards on showpost and announcement

Other Stuff:
Although I give credit to Lesane for the idea this hack is totally recoded to be less server intensive and also uses a whole lot less queries. Therefor I do not consider this a 'port'.

Installation:
Download the appropriate .Zip file and follow the instructions in the readme file.

Upgrading:
So far there are no ways to upgrade this hack, if you have an old copy installed then you need to uninstall and reinstall from scratch.

Coming Soon:
- Awards added to the search and memberlists.
- Added functions to the addition of awards as well as cron functions to assign awards automatically to those members with 'X' posts, registered 'X' days etc...
- Option to show award name rather than graphic.
- Option to turn awards OFF & ON in postbit and memberinfo
- Request award on awards page (at Cyricx' request)
(not necessarily in that order)

Make sure you backup your files and database first! This hack has been tested on vB RC1 and RC4 only!

Please click the install button

If you experience any errors, problems or the hack doesn't seem to be functioning correctly then send me a pm with the following info:
- HTL or Standalone installer.
- Version of vB you are running.
- File where error is encountered.
- Exact error or description of error.

If you installed this hack before 23rd May and are getting foreach errors in your showthread then follow the step below:

In /includes/functions_showthread.php find:

PHP Code:


			
    // sorts through all the stuff to return the postbit template

below that add:

PHP Code:


			
    // user awards

    global $userawards;

If in your showthread.php member post counts show N/A, they have no profile link or their user title is guest you MUST run 'Fix broken user profiles' in the update counters part of the admincp. This is found under the nav bar 'Import & Maintenance' > 'Update Counters' > 'Fix broken user profiles'. This will add the awards for all the users currently in your database and prevent showing incorrent member info.

HOOAH!

Uuhm, I mean, thankyou

OK I see for all these updates and awards to work together you need to uninstall first. Then replace the "function.php" file with the first one. Reinstall the hacks and put the edited file back.

OK how do I upgrade this hack? I noticed after I upgrade my VB I need to uninstall this hack and reinstall then give out all my awards again? This is so very tedious. And Yes the awards are perm. @ ^^^

bump...?

Just do only the file changes and check if the templates need to be changed, I didn't need to change anything in my templates.

I cut the install file so that only these file and template changes show.
See attached .html.txt file - rename to .html

I do run vB 3.0.7 and it runs fine, no problems seen yet.

Good Luck

How do I check the templates? Cause I hate that I have to uninstall and reinstall all the time...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
