If you mean there's no tab on your forums then yes you need to add one manually using the navigation manager.

You'll need to remove the bronze and give the silver.

To remove a medal in acp go to Award System -> Award Manager -> Give Award to User and at the bottom select the user to remove the award from.

Just installed the mod today, seems to be working smoothly except for the automation.

Does the automation only auto approve requests or will it also send out the awards? Also when I set an award to be sent to a certain usergroup will it also send to people in that secondary usergroup?

Thanks for your time!

[squidsk]

@holomachus - The deprecation messages are just warning and can be safely ignored, they are just related to which version of php you are running and how it wants code written as opposed to how it used to want code written.

@Monstercat - automation does not auto approve requests that has to be done manually, it only assigns awards based on criteria chosen when setting up an automation job, also yes automation will give the award to people who have the group as a secondary membergroup

I've been meaning to report this for a while.

It's nothing major, but I noticed that when you edit a post with Quick Edit (which most users do) instead of going into the advanced editor, when you click Save, the showcase disappears from the postbit user information area.
