Pip System Hack
By mx3/Hyper22shadow

What this does is display an image a certain amount of times based on post count in the postbit.

ok...
find:

PHP Code:

} elseif($post[posts] >=' 5501' AND $post[posts] <= '10000') {
$pipcount=15;
$showpips="<img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip>"; 


add under:

PHP Code:

} elseif($post[posts] > '10000') {
$pipcount=16;
$showpips="<img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip>"; 


Tell me if that works...



And i don't really think there are many boards out there with members that have post counts that high

I know, but if a user had more posts then whats set in the functions.php it wouldn't show the image

You mean


Find:

PHP Code:

} elseif($post[posts] >=' 5501' AND $post[posts] <= '5500') {
$pipcount=15;
$showpips="<img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip><img src=$pip>"; 


?

Yep that works

P.S: Don't forget to update the zip.

Isn't that what the "Stars" in the image folder are for?

Technically, no, but there have been hacks out that are similar to this that uses stars. Also, vBulletinTemplates.com had a modification to use stars as well.

another way to do this without a hack is the way i have made the rank stars on my forum.....


in the admin cp

When defining the ranks, simply ad a <br>followed by an img tag for the appropriate star image. For example:
Starting at 0 posts:
Forum Newbie<br><img src="images/stars/1star.gif">
Starting at 51 posts:
Forum Member<br><img src="images/stars/2star.gif">

You would then make appropriate images and place them in forums/images/stars.

You can only have so many stars doing it this way since there is a limit to how many characters you can enter in the rank field.. Though of course this can be fixed with a small MySQL database query..
