Might I make a brief suggestion?
In the installation instructions, modify
"UPLOAD the /upload directory to your forum root."

to

"UPLOAD the CONTENTS of the /upload directory to your forum root."

Otherwise, the product appears to install correctly, but the upload files aren't in the correct places.

Hey, everything is working, but when i go to change the default submission data, i get:

"No Phrases Matched Your Query"

and everything is installed correctly.

I installed this mod, and it's exactly what I wanted. However, I do see 1 thing that could be changed. When I add the awards showcase to the postbit, it's posting between "Posts:" and "Blog entries:". In my opinion, it should post at the bottom of the postbit, even after the "Blog entries:". Just my thoughts on it. Other than that, it's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

I've always love this award mod, so I'm wondering if this works on 4.0.6 or not at the moment?

[iDCamps]

I have it installed on 4.0.6 and it works, except when you request an award you get

"There's some error when sending your award request. Please contact site's administrator for assistant."

But the request goes through...

Since the update of vb4.0.4 to 4.0.6 I get a page with this error message as

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare construct_depth_mark() (previously declared in /htdocs/awards.php:98) in /htdocs/includes/adminfunctions.php on line 1906

[adders]

I'm also getting an error in 4.0.6 when recommending or requesting an award, it get:

"you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons"

Anyone else getting this, any ideas for a fix.

Cheers

@Adders, do you have the Admin usergroup permissions changed so you can view it? A lot of times, you have to manually give yourself permission to view it.

@Delazar, do you have a Dragonbyte Tech product installed, such as "vBCredits II Deluxe" or "vBShop" because I myself get the same error. It's because of this:

It looks like YAAS copied a default vbulletin function out of adminfunctions.php, and vbcredits include adminfunctions instead of doing the same to whatever function(s) it needed.
Including adminfunctions is the correct method here, as it doesn't tie it up and cause problems with other mods (like YAAS is doing

If you don't...sorry. :P hope that clears some stuff...
