Edit: nm this is for Profile (which I assume you fixed from your edit) not sure what you mean about awards - might want to post a screen shot for the Dev.

Check this this post out on a profile issue: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...01#post2189701

I have the mod running and working now.

NOW I have a new problem however; and I'm not sure what is creating this one because this time it isn't telling me. Basically now my site looks all messed up in 2 places: [S]On ones profile page[/S] and on the awards.php page.

It is like the skin/template is all screwed up.

Any solutions to this?

Thanks for all the help.

EDIT: Fixed the messed up template via ones profile page. The template is still messed up though for the awards.php link and when requesting/recommending awards. Really need that one since people will be focusing on those pages when they want new awards. I'm guessing it has something to do with me using a custom style since when I flip to the default one it looks fine. Bummer...

[n00bl3t]

Yeah the link is the one I used to fix the profile one.

I will post Screen Shots later of the other one later (in a rush to school )

It is the page basically where you see the list of awards and users can request or recommend awards. Again I am guessing it is because of my custom style because the default vbulletin style looks just fine.

[odie3]

if it is ok in the default, then I would likely be your custom style causing it - IMO.

[Carthondor]

I had Problems with Custom Style, and i fixed that: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....58&postcount=2

My VB is 4.1.5

The Next Problem was, that on the Request Form & Recomend Form, the same Template issus are given.

You can fix that when you edit the template:

awards_request_form
awards_recommend_form

search for that:

$headinclude
</head>

insert $headinclude_bottom

$headinclude
$headinclude_bottom
</head>

Well done Custom Style runs well!

I've set this up to create award submissions as a new post reply to an existing thread. But how do you edit the message posted? I want to add a quickly link to it, so you just have to click on it to give the award. But can't find the message in the phrases, where is this hidden?

Language Manager -> award_pm is the template name you want.

Anyway, presently I am having issues with this plugin. Users customised backgrounds are not working and my profile "Awards" tab doesn't work... help .

Screenshot example of issue.


Edit: Managed to fix the bug with the backgrounds but my "Awards" icon is still blank unless you click it?

[KGodel]

Andy, I have similar issues with user profiles and the award tab in profiles.

Another issue I have is that if users are purged through the ACP, say for inactivity, then there is simply a blank " " who is viewed as having been issued the award. Is there a way to remove blank users who no longer exist aside from editing the database?

I did this tutorial to fix most of the problems with my site, but I'm still having a problem on one of my themes.

The first visitor message on your own profile, every link is non-clickable. But everything is below/above/sides works fine.

This is the only theme it does this on and I have about 4 themes available for users on my forum. Anyone know how to fix this?

[Littlerocket]

Great mod. Works great at www.fifagamer.net.

One thing I'd like to do is move the awards around the postbit. The facility to do it within the admincp is good, but it doesn't have the facility to move it where I'm after.

Could someone point me towards the code to edit to move the award please. Have checked the obvious places such as postbit_legacy.

Thanks.
