vBExperience 3.7 (aka xPerience)
-------------------------------- Created by Marius Czyz aka Phalynx. Winner of the "Mod of the Month"-Award (March 2008) on vBulletin.org. This mod will work with vBulletin 3.6.10 and vBulletin 3.7. To get the new version 3.8.0 you will need to update to vBulletin 3.7 or vBulletin 3.8 with the new vBExperience 3.8.0! You can download vBExperience 3.8.0 here: For vBulletin 3.7: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=171014 For vBulletin 3.8: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=199556 In vBExperience 3.8.0, support for vBulletin 3.6.x has been dropped. Comments, suggestions, translations, bugs, etc... are very welcome! Support is only given to people who have clicked Mark as Installed. Description vBExperience is an advanced Level and Activity System with Shop and Awards. It will calculate an activity and experience score for every user based on their activites on the forum. Now your users will see how their level is increasing by participating on your forum. This mod was developed by me because I was never satisfied with the post count. Communities are not only defined by post count, they need much more parameters: Are the postings the user creates helpful? Are his threads frequently read? Does the user participate on the community by posting pictures, attachments, leaving visitor messages, tagging threads? All this can be answered with this mod. For vBulletin 3.6.x there is only reduced functionality because some new features like social groups, thread tagging, visitor messages and albums have been introduced initially in vBulletin 3.7 Demo: http://www.insideearth.net/forum.php?langid=5 Demo Profile: http://www.insideearth.net/member.php?u=1&langid=5 Demo Rankings: http://www.insideearth.net/xperience.php?langid=5 Demo Awards: http://www.insideearth.net/xperience...wards&langid=5 Demo Shop: http://www.insideearth.net/xperience...=shop&langid=5 Demo Stats: http://www.insideearth.net/xperience...stats&langid=5 Demo Promotions: http://www.insidesupcom.de/xperience...=shop&langid=1 There are mainly four things visible for the users: The users score, his level, his next level up in %/points and his activity in %. Calculation of the score Taken into calculation are these things: Threads - Created threads - Thread views of own threads - Thread replies of own threads - Thread votes of own threads - Thread tags (vBulletin 3.7) - Replies to own threads - Sticky threads Posts - Created posts - Views on attachments User - Days since registration - Referrals - Received infractions - Reputation / Use of reputation system - Visitor messages on profiles (vBulletin 3.7) - Members of own social groups (vBulletin 3.7) - Albumpictures (vBulletin 3.7) - Friends (vBulletin 3.7) Misc Additionally there is support for 3rd party addons: - Post Thank You / Use of Post Thank You - thanks via vS-Hide Hack Resurrection (Expanded Edition) - LDM Links and Downloads Manager - DownloadsII - PhotoPost Gallery - Cyb Paypal Donate - vBulletin Blog - Who Downloaded This Attachment? - ibProArcade Highscorer Points (via addon) - v3arcade Highscorer Points (via addon) - PhotoPlog 2.1 (via addon) - QuoteIt! 3.16 (via addon) Additionally you can install these modifications: - Thread Necromancer: Gives (minus-) points when a user is posting in old threads. Contains also Thread Necromancer Award. - Scrupulous Poster: Gives points for editing posts. Award users that are editing own posts instead of doing double post. - Deletion Addicted: Gives points when an user/nod soft-deletes post, thread, visitormessage, groupmessage or picturecomment. Also, there are already addons that works as custom point provider. A CDP can extend vBExperience by collecting data and adding it in the vBExperience datastore. All point providers can be used for Awards and Shop. You have to install these hacks for your own, vBExperience doesn't install nor touches these. Also, you can add your own custom points and f.e. set an award to this points. vBAdvanced There are two vBAdvanced 3.0 XML modules: Most Active Users and Most Experienced Users. Import them via vBAdvanced AdminCP. Awards There are four default awards: Community, Posting, Activity and Helpful. The awards are shown in Rankings and Profile. You can set them also to display in postbit near the username. There is a scheduled job running once a day (02:30h) to calculate them. Via AdminCP they are completely customizeable and can also be assigned manually. Awards can be created for every data provider. Rankings Showing User, Level, Awards, Activity Points (experience, thread, post, user, misc) - sortable. Shop With vBExerience 3.7.14 a virtual Shop has been introduced. You can define categories and put virtual items with pictures in it. A currency can be defined seperatly for every item, e.g. 20 points from threads or 100 points from gallery. Users can purchase the items, they appear in their profile. The costs of the item are substracted from their xperience points. Additionally you can set quantity of the items. The Shop will motivate your users to collect specific points to buy an item. Optionally you can show the last purchased items on postbit. You can put virtual items in it, like WoW addons: Sell WoW Items in exchange of f.e. thread points. Great for RPG forums. Statistics The new statistics shows a Top-X list of the leading users. Usefull for optimizing points of the point provider. Only enabled point providers with results will be displayed. Promotion system To motivate users to do more on your forum I created the promotion system. By reaching defined xperience points the user will be moved to another usergroup - where you can set graphics, shadows, highlighting, etc... What is interesting in combination with this: you can give the user more possibilities f.e. larger avatars or bigger PM box. A log of the promotions is available. Calculation of the activity The system calculates the activity by taking the average post count of the ten most active user and comparing it to own post count. This can be set to count only the last X days, f.e. 21 days (controlable via AdminCP) . Settings You can control how many points are given to every calculation. For example you can give many points for creating new threads but only a few for views of that thread. Setting a value to 0 will disable a setting. Additionally, you can set ignore users (f.e. for bot users), forums (f.e. offtopic forums) and usergroup id's. Performance, Big Boards vBExperience has been tested on smaller and also on some bigger sites. I know from boards with around 120k users running this mod smoothly. More about this topic can be read in the file readme_optimization.txt Frequently asked questions Q: How do I change the name vBExperience to something new? A: You can change the name via phrases. Just search and replace all phrases that contains vBExperience. Q: When installing vBExperience, does everyone start from scratch, or will it automatically configure everyone's points based on actions before the install? A: If you recount, vBExperience will calculate ALL existing data since the beginning of the board. Known Issues: - Awards: On "Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread" awards are only shown for the user who is viewing this. - Awards: If activated in with rich username, they are attached to the username. If the username is linked, the awards are also linked. If a link is underlined, the awards are also underlined. This behaviour is hardcoded in vBulletin and cannot be fixed. Screenshots I've attached a few screenshots: vBExperience_Awards.JPG - Hall of Fame vBExperience_Awards_Username.JPG - Username with Awards vBExperience_Rankings.JPG - Rankings with new Awards vBExperience_Profile_vBulletin 36.JPG - It adds a reduced memberblock to the vBulletin 3.6.8 profile vBExperience_Profile_vBulletin 37.JPG - It adds a detailed memberblock to the new vBulletin 3.7 profile vBExperience_Postbit.JPG - An overview of users score is visible in the postbit, Level up (blue bar) can be hide vBExperience_Postbit_FullPopup.JPG - Popup on Username vBExperience_Postbit_WithText_LeftAwards.JPG - Username prefixed with Awards and Bardescriptions vBExperience_AdminCP_Stats.jpg - vBExperience menu and level stats vBExperience_Settings.JPG - Settings are done via AdminCP vBExperience_Settings_Points.JPG - Every Experience can be configured individually Credits for icons - FAMFAMFAM, http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/ - IconExperience History 3.7.17, 21th July 2008 - Shop: Fixed purchase for users with a userid higher than 32.000 - Shop: New setting Row break.

When xperience.php is integrated within a VBA page, it gives a small error on top:
HTML Code:
Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/vba_cmps_include_template.php on line 19 Edit: Meh, that error isn't present on my testboard. My bad, some interference or something on my real board

Is there a option to show full details in pop-up. Bars and text. And show nothing in the post bit.
Can you link the pop-up menu to the vBExperience page (Richest members)

I just updated the mod.
EVERY 'page 1 of 5'' thing does not work, it keeps returing to page 1 Also you cant post anyhing. In the Memberlist if you click on someones name it says that he does not excist. This is also on the default style. When i disable the mod the problem is gone. Any idee what went wrong during the update?
