It does put the request in the Moderation que though. So appears to be working.
Just giving this message and Not what it should be?

1) Disable/delete the YAAS - Profile Tab Plugin that is attached to the member_complete hook (in other words my previous fix for problem 1 is not required anymore). If this isn't done you will get two Awards tabs on profile pages.

2) Make the following edits (all text in blue needs to be added) to the YAAS in Member Profile - Profile plugin that is attached to the member_build_blocks_start hook:

$blocklist['myawards'] = array(
    'class' => 'MyAwards',
    'title' => $vbphrase['awards'],
    'options' => array(
            'pagenumber' => $vbulletin->GPC['pagenumber']
    ),
    'hook_location' => 'profile_tabs_last',
    'wrap' => false
);

I don't think this is a proper fix. Disabling YAAS - Profile Tab Plugin will remove the working tab.

Your addition to YAAS in Member Profile - Profile just makes the phantom tab that appears in the wrong spot now have the awards text. Really I would like to remove this phantom tab and leave the working one alone.

I fixed the inactive tab and active tab status by adding the missing dd class "<dd class="userprof_moduleinactive">" that YAAS - Profile Tab was missing. So I have mine working on inactive and active status, just want to get rid of the phantom tab.

Anyone know how to do that?

You didn't follow the first step. Disable the indicated plugin and it will remove the phantom tab. The phantom tab, and that plugin, is a remnant of the old way that vb4 dealt with tabs. This was changed in Vb4.1 but this plugin has not been updated since then.

There's also a third fix, step 1 in post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=742, the second and third steps are the same as the ones I'd posted earlier.

You also potentially have other conflicts as you're using a custom style which have other issues that are causing problems. Always test with the vbulletin default style.

Sorry my screen shots weren't reflective of what I was saying.

Deactivating YAAS - Profile Tab doesn't get rid of the phantom tab that was appearing out of place, it gets rid of the tab that I think was working correctly with the proper dd class fix.

By adding 'hook_location' => 'profile_tabs_last' you move the phantom tab that was once appearing out of place up into the proper tab placement.

It looks to be working

The "phantom tab" is the correct tab, the other one is the bad tab that doesn't work properly.

We're still having this problem ourselves. Our owner even updated it with the fixed version, and now, not only is Awards still tabless, with the tab being at the bottom, but we get syntax errors, which I fixed by disabling YAAS.

[squidsk]

If you'd be willing to grant me access I'd be willing to take a look and try and fix it. I've used the fix I mentioned on three separate vb 4.x installs and its worked all three times so I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work unless there's a conflict with another plugin.

[Amaury]

Thank you, Squid, for fixing it.

While I'm here, I've got another question regarding this. Is there a way to change the Current Activity text for it? I would like it to be Viewing Award System, with Award System being a link, and I tried doing a search in Phrase Manager, but it didn't find anything.

[Hikarin]

I have Yet Another Award System enabled.
Thank you for making this. I really have loved this programme ever since I saw it on some old Vb3 forums. ^_^ I glad that my forum finally has it too.

But.... what exactly's going on here? O_o
