First of all before i ask my question, is this mod even supported anymore?

My first question is this...
I have a mod that automatically moves people to a different usergroup "inactive usergroup" for those people who are marked as inactive for not checking the site for the past 7 days. The mod then puts them back in their regular usergroup once they check the site.

The problem with this is that the award automation gives them the same award over and over again for usergroup change. Is it possible to somehow make it so that if they already have the award, don't give it to them again? I would like to do this for all our awards, we don't issue the same awards multiple times in our community.

My second question is this..

Our donation system automatically adds an additional usergroup to a user who has donated. The automatic awards system doesn't recognize additional usergroup changes, only primary usergroup changes. Is it possible to please make it so that if an additional usergroup is added to a user he gets an award?

The first one is an error message that happens when a user tries to request or recommend an award.

Getting this as well, members can't recommend awards because you get the "Contact Administrator" Error, and the "Request Award" just goes to a blank page, pure white, not even an error!

This is the only system for v4.0.4 that I've found, please help! =)

Turns out despite the error, the recommendation is still hits the ACP. Don't suppose there are any coders that would like to look into a fix ...

I do have a few bugs fixed, the major one is with the award recommendation pages in the AdminCP.

At this time, I am only working on bug fixes only, no new features at this time. Those of you who are wishing to submit BUG REPORTS, please send me a PM so I can keep track of them better than reading page after page.

Hi.

I asked the following question for the version for vB3.8, but I thought it may be fruitful to ask here, too, since I suppose I should be looking at the same files for a solution, regardless of vB version.

Anyways, is there a way to align the "Image" column above the "Description" column? I ask for two reasons. First, I'm using a fixed style, so there's not much horizontal space. Second, the images I want to use are banners, and would be too wide if placed side by side with the description. Also, while I'm at it, does anyone know how to remove the "Icon" column completely? I have no use for it because I only use text in the postbit.

-edit-

I found out the icon could be removed from the settings.

I updated to 4.0.4 and now my awards php page goes to a page not found.
How do I fix that?
