Thanks alot. Thats solved my problem.

Greatly appreciated

[Gaskell]

No problems at all

[D-Railer]

Just wanted to say thanks, this is working like a charm for me in testing. It took me a bit to realize the postbit changes needed to take place; but once I figured that out, smooth sailing.

Those of you in the same situation, but wondering where this information is, it is in your docs folder as an htm file called "awards_install_template.html"

Good stuff.

OK I've managed to sort it out. I did notice at least one other person had the same issue after I raised it so here goes. In the awards manager make sure the paths to the images have a / and not a \

Simple, but effective. To be fair I think it only effected awards I added/created myself not the original ones.

[obmob]

well, this is strange, i'm testing in vB default style... somehow in memberlist, when i add the award column, this is replaced and inside the msn+ icons are shown, in the end i show avatar, and avatar isn't there, but one column to the right.

It's only one code changed and that happens, no other hacks installed, any ideas why is this happening? thanks.
I'm in 3.5.4

EDIT
u.u sorry, i forgot one step in install instructions.

[Eagle Creek]

I guess I'm going to install this because the other awardshack is dead .

Anyway.. Is there a possibility to let Moderators give members awards?

[Eagle Creek]

Can you tell me the use of the record

issue_id

, in the table award_user?

No, I am not interested in assigning awards to groups, and it'd be easier to setup group's RANK for this purpose (user rank manager)

Take a look at http://midlandsweather.org.uk/showth...61#post1007361

I would love some help please

I cant see any error, (in FF), so how should I help? describe the error, with screen captures would be helpful

yes, it is possible. you need to move the first part that you need to edit in MEMBERINFO to the location that you want to see. Some basic HTML is required for you to know exactly where you should put it to fit your style.

well, no. not for right now, unless you allow your moderators (create a seperated award mod group) to access admincp)


issue_id is to record/seperate IDs of different award issued (same or different awards) given to some user

yeah I know, it's bad, but I think I stated somewhere, that I've been so busy, that cant give support at the moment. "visiting" this website, for few minutes doesnt give me enough time to answer all questions, you know.

I hope other experienced user can give a hand too, or if there is big issue, you can contact me directly via PM.

[Eagle Creek]

That's fine for me but then should they be able ONLY to give Awards.
And since I can't give that rights with default vBsettings..

I would really liked it when you made something so also moderators (or a group) can give awards!
