Yes, you just installed another plugin that doesn't work correctly with this one. If you go to https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...16#post2340916 you can grab an updated version of this mod that fixes that issue among others.

That's actually the version i'm currently using.

Funny enough.. it works if i'm logged out.


Fixed by disabling "vFcoders - Advanced Report System" ... wierd..

What other plugin have you installed since this one last worked correctly?

[r00028304]

It was vFcoders - Advanced Report System.. Which I've disabled.. all seems to be working OK.. not sure why they are interfering with e/o

One of two reasons. First is that you didn't update the awards.php when you updated to the 4.0.3 version I posted. The easy way to check for this is to open awards.php and look at the top it should say 4.0.3 in the version. You can also go to line 99, where the construct_depth_mark function is declared, and ensure the function is wrapped in a if(!function_exists('construct_depth_mark)) conditional statement. The second possible reason is that one of the plugins from vFcoders - Advanced Report System has bad php and is causing that if statement I mention above to not fire properly, which would also cause the error.

If the problem is the first then just re-upload the file, if the problem is the second report it to vFcoders and let them deal with the bad code, or you can enable the plugin and disable the hooks one at a time until you find the one causing the problem and see if you can figure it out.

My bet is the second, especially as the problem resolves itself when you aren't logged in.

I've gotten great use out of the YAAS mod and the YARS mod has been very helpful as well. As such, I'd like to share the 320+ medals I've had my artist design for me with the community. A lot of them are "medal sets", meaning a medal has multiple level or ranks. I use this level system extensively on my site, so there are a lot of those.

I've included the base image of each medal and its icon. They are both PNG images with transparent backgrounds.

A sample:



Please only use these only on your vBulliten sites. The zip file for these is to large to attach here, so you can download it here.

Hope this helps some of you out.

Please visit and compare to the rest of the site. I have contacted my site builder but I am hoping someone can help me figure it out on my own as he takes awhile to respond.

Just a heads up, when I go to your site, my security blocks me from ur site saying it has dangerous content on it.

Could be a php error that or try this see if it fixes the issue
To resolve the deprecation error go to line 47 in awards.php and delete the & from before the equals sign.
