Ooops, Sorry thought I didn't submit first one.

I installed on my forums but it doesn't show up in the navbar? Any help?

You have to make your own using the navigation options in the admin panel. use the /awards link as the address

Shady,

Go to Settings-Navigation Manger-

AddTab

Target URL should be http://www.yourdomain.com/awards.php

The one that says YaAS-4.0.6.zip.

I don't know if this was fixed in 4.0.6 or not (I'm running 4.0.5, and since I've customized the system somewhat, I'm slow to upgrade), but I found that 4.0.5 does not cache templates that show up in the "usernote.php" page (of which there are two if looking at usernotes of a user who actually has some).

Simple fix, though, and I've already done this fix on my end.

squidsk, I've used this system on other forums but now have it on a new 4.2.1 forum. It works fantastic (even though I have request and recommend turned off) but I just kicked the first error for the auto awarding (by post count). Any ideas?
