That'll be where you'll find your stuff.

There isn't even a td for that area. I don't know what to add. >..<

Does anyone know how (in awards_postbit_display) we can get it to check to see if the user has received the same award more than once, and then to only display it once, instead of having it show up 3 to 4 times?

Is actually the color of the style / the customized user profile.

You can edit the memberinfo here Member Info Templates -> memberinfo_block_myawards

I am using the option to create a thread with award requests in a forum. Anyone know how to put the name of the award that is being requested into the title?
I am not good with PHP is the problem, but I know it involves editing "request_award.php" and the template.

I have gotten it to show the request reason by editing this line:

$posttitle = construct_phrase($vbphrase['award_request_post_title'], "$award_request_recipient_name", "$award_request_reason");

The problem is the award_request_reason variable is already defined, along with the award_id, but I can't seem to figure out how to tell it to use the award_name...
I know it's can't be hard, I just don't have that PHP / vbmod background

'awards_postbit_display_style2'
'awards_postbit_display_style3'

still not cached.. I thought this was fixed TWICE?

Edit PLUGIN
YAAS - cache templates

Find:

$globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('awards_bit', 'awards_postbit_display'));

replace with:

$globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('awards_bit', 'awards_postbit_display', 'awards_postbit_display_style2', 'awards_postbit_display_style3'));

Edit awards.php
Find:

	'awards_postbit_display'

replace with:

	'awards_postbit_display',
        'awards_postbit_display_style2',
        'awards_postbit_display_style3'

This mod adds a lot of queries. Mod disabled: 31 queries, Mod enabled: 41 queries.
Does it add a query for each post in the threadview, even IF that person had NO awards?

Hi. When I set the display order ASC (or DESC) in award listing instead newer first (default), the function to display awards in member list (Member List: Display Awards) doesn't work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

[Speysider]

Just wanting to know, how do you edit the text so that it reads Emblems, instead of Awards?
