The member is someone randomly picked from all the users in
your forum that met a certain criteria.

By default it appers in top of the forumhome. It is a nice way for members

Theoretically it should, however I'm going to wait until Zachariah unveils the next updated version to install it.

Not working for me in 3.6.1. I get a database error about the avatar table in the db being wrong. :/

Thanks for the info.
There were a lot of changes from 3.5 - 3.6.

Thanks for the reply I know you said you have alot on your plate right now - any idea of where this is in the hierarchy of things?

i want u use it to display a member of the week that was the top member for that week based off of stats and other contributions to the board. i don't want it to be random. i would like to enter a name for that person.

i installed it on 3.5.4 and now know its not compatible. but i didn't' see a way to change it from 1 day, a week, or a month. i guess i would make the change in the cron. just making sure

also how can it work for some 3.5.4 versions and not others?

zach,

do u still plan to have this inc int the updated version?

Yes when I get back into the code, I'll collect all wants and need of the people who use the hack

[imported_infitech]

I just installed this...
Great hack...
I think the CMPS people out there should know that at the end of the honorable template they should replace the <br />
<div><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/$vboptions[cleargifurl]" height="$vba_style[portal_vspace]" alt="" /></div>

I've placed the honorable member MOD in my left colum.
It works fine on FormHome but i get database error on every other page.

How must i edit your code to make it work in my colum on everypage? My colum is a part of the header template.

eval('$honorable = "' . fetch_template('forumhome_honorable') . '";');

Any plan on updating this for 3.6.4? I tried running this on my board and even after running the cron, I still received errors very similar to those here. Would love to use this one. Thanks!
