I use PHP3 extension on my forum, is there a way to add this great hack to that ?? Just change all the php extension to php3 din`t work, so is there another way i can add this to my forum ??

Cheers.

One thing I would like to mention to Certify, you may wish to make an "Un-installer" for this hack as well. Some people may wish to remove it at some point and may not know what to remove, so this would help those people out a lot.

Yes this is in.

It will be nice if vb3 comes intergrated with karma, I hope this is confirm.

Dump....

But since i now have changed from PHP3 to PHP i still can`t get it to work.. I`m trying to run the install.point.php and just get a blank white page. Any one who can help me out here ??

[Psychdrone]

hmm hey could you add the option, to add a certain amount of karma points, if the user, has # of referrals??

Great hack by the way!

[Psychdrone]

another thing that would be awsome man, is if you could make it like the hack User points, where it says Karam: whatever #

and like the user points hack, mods and admins, can click this and easily give them karma or subtract karam????

please

Ok I will do it.

By the way I just seen how overgrows karma works and I get the general idea now.

vB3 wont be released for a while, so thank certify to provide the functionality now.

One question- is it possible to "reset" the karm count to zero for all the users? We're thinking of having competitions every month and whoever has the highest karma points wins. So we need to reset the karma points to zero at the end of every month.

And how does the admin view the karma points of the users? The option in the control panel says "Add/Modify/View Points" but when you click you can add/modify...how do you view?

Thanks
Abbas
