Toplist Hack

This isnt the same as Dj'Sap's toplist scripted, i scripted my own, i do give him credit for the original and giving me the idea to make my own, my toplist has alot of cool features and easy to use.
It let members add one site only to the toplist where only other members can vote for it, the site with the most votes get higher on the list.

Members can only vote once a day though.
Members can also add a banner and image button if they want
People can click on the banner or button and will be taking to a page with the code to add the banner or button to there site to link them to the toplist to vote.
Theres 2 ways to vote:
1. go to the toplist and click vote on the site
2. Theres two kinds of links, one brings you to the toplist and automaticly vote for you and the other automaticly vote for you but brings you to the site you voted for

You have to sign up on the forums to vote

It keeps track on how many total an d daily ins (votes) and outs

Admins can see a specail edit and delete link next to the vote link, admins can delete any site and edit almost every thing about it, including url, description, title, button and banner url, total and daily ins and outs.

Admins are allowed to add more then one site

People can choose from a drop down menu on how many toplists get showed on there screen, the default is 50, you can choose from 10,25,50,75,100 and all, you can esily add more if you want.

Some screens shots are in the zip file.

Heres a live demo: http://www.gods-network.com/forums/toplist.php

I have installed it now but not made it public untill yet.
First i will thank you for this great hack.It will be very usefull for any boardcommunity.

Now a few things i realize after installing it.

The editfunction does not work properly.
You click on edit and will be redirect to the editscreen.

Also, i really dont understand what this custom buttonstuff is good for.
For me a toplist on my board should have only one button.Mine, that the members can add on their sites.
Visitors on the member sites clicks on the button or banner from me and automaticly votes for the site and will be redirect to my boards toplist.

one thing that would really improve it would be the ability for the rank number to appear on the buttons, a site commenting system for the members to comment on the sites on the toplist, and to be able to split it into different rank categories, say most unique visitors, or most button clicks on the toplist

Sounds like you want yours how I have mine set up.

Here's a demo..

If you'd like I can send you the template changes I made.
As for the edit site feature, I get the screen where you're supposed to make your changes, but the changes I make just won't take effect. Are you sure you added all the templates?

[hagan]

I get on the editscreen, make my changes and click on submit.
Then i get back to where i was, the editscreen.The Changes have like you said no effect.

I was on your toplist.Looks very good.You got rid of this custom buttonstuff.
But one thing is still missing.If you get to a membersite and click on your toplistbutton to vote you must be registered to vote.
I think everybody should be able to vote.This would create much more traffic and hits.

Warlord, that would be very nice.I would love to have your template modifications.
Or make it here public.I think there are others that want it.

Best regards,
Hagan

ManagerJosh has his list set up so non-members can vote, perhaps he would be so kind as to enlighten the rest of us as to how we might make the same changes?

Also, has anyone figured out how to fix the Edit option? ManagerJosh thinks it's a php problem and not a mysql problem.. anyone got a fix for this yet?



Here's the template modifications I made for anyone that wants them....

[Warlord]

bumpity doo daa

[Warlord]

Ok people.. once again... here's the fix.. this time for the updating problem we were having for the edit site feature.

Just overwrite your current toplist.php with this one.

As always, make a backup of the file you are about to overwrite.. "Just in case".

How do you access the admin bit of the script?

Thanks

If you're referring to the administrative features, you can edit/delete sites by clicking "Edit" beneath their site listing.
