Question for everyone.

For the automatic issuing of awards, for instance, based on post counts.
Say you have two awards and the criteria for each is 10, and 20.
Once the user reaches 10, that user will get the award for 10 posts. Now, when user gets 20 posts, and gets the award for 20 posts, should the award for 10 posts be removed, or stay?

For ease of coding, they'll be left with both awards. That alright?

Hmm, first of all I don't wanna use automatic award issue system, however if I issue awards based on post counts, award for 10 posts should be removed.

Yes. I think that if the user comes to a big poster... he will get a lot of medals. I prefer the second option, remove medal after getting a new medal.
Thanks! I like this mod a lot!!!!

The "Automation" aspect will have the option to Enable/Disable.

So far, I have the AdminCP Forms built, and cron script wrote for post counts. I still need to go back and have it remove the older award based on criteria. That part I think will be a bit tricky to code.

Well,

Is it the same version attached here?

If so, I use the same version currently available here.

Although they were not where I can get it.

Thank you very much.

If you're already using vBulletin 4.0.1, then you need to update YaAS to the RC-1 Release. Profile tabs are working in that release. The minimum vBulletin version that YaAS will now function on is 4.0.1.

When vB Released 4.0.1 yesterday, a change they did broke the profile tabs in previous releases of YaAS4.

hi..

I upgraded \\ from vb.3.8.4 to vb.4.0.1

could you plz show me how to move AWORD in nav-bar.

and IF there are an infraction for any member , Awards Showcase change it's location

for more info. check out my attachment please

I'm looking into possibilities of moving the Awards tab around.

As for infractions, I cannot duplicate this. It works properly on the default style, even after giving users an infraction.
