Is there a way to make the PM from the person that gave you rep? That way people could reply directly to them. I have neg rep disabled so for me it is a good idea.

Thanks!

Can this be made to send a pm for other than 1 point? If an admin gives rep on my site, it is 100 points. Can it reflect the right amount, too?

I just edited the text so that this just says they were given rep and to check their usercp.

change $forumbot, $forumbotid variables to following ones:

PHP Code:

$forumbot = "$bbuserinfo[username]"; // rename it to whatever you like
        $forumbotid = "$bbuserinfo[userid]"; // don't change this value if you don't know what it is
        $pm_title = "You have been given 1 rep point.";
        $pm_content = "I've just given you 1 reputation point for your excellent post.\n\rKeep up good work!\n\rRegard,\n\r$forumbot";

I have not tested this yet, but i think you can add an if ... else statement to check if the user is in admin group to return proper amount point. for example:

PHP Code:

if($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == '6')
{
$reppoint = '100';
}
else
{
$reppoint  = '1';
} 


now, in title + message, modify it a bit. i.e.

PHP Code:

$pm_title = "You have been given $reppoint point.";

You'd think people would know where to look, but new users sometimes need direct links to help them out - so I'd like a link in the PM that goes directly into the User CP so they can click to go see the reputation

I would just like to post that this hack ahas almost tripled the use of the rep system on my site. Members love it and are now pm'ing the heck out of each other with this simple little addon.

Thanks again!

Will these be ported to 3.5?

Thanks again!
