Karma 1.3a Release - March 15 2002

I highly recommended that you upgrade to 1.3a.

• Minor display changes.
• Bug Fixes.
• Security fixes.

For those who are using karma v1.3 just upload adis.php

Bug fixed
- Fix you are not login bug when you are actually login.


Next version
Will be release in April 2002. If you have any features to suggest or recommendation please post a NEW thread in my forum instead of vbulletin.org, so I can keep track of all the suggestions and as this thread is getting too long and I can't keep up with it.

The upgrade from 1.0 to 1.3 went very well. Good work I like the hack. Anyway, if I click on karma and want to add a comment using the link It says You need to be registered.... although I'm registered. I removed the line which say include header/footer. But as that are only HTML files it shouldn't be a problem.

Don't run run upgrade_karma_1_0.php

This is what you have to do.

For those that are upgrading from version 1.2 to 1.3, upload adis.php and kpoints.php. Change the following lines in your postbit template.

(a)find this line of code:
winAtt = "scrollbars=1, width=900, height=500, left=5";
replace it with:
winAtt = "scrollbars=1, width=500, height=300, left=5";

(b)find this line of code:
<a href="javascriptopout('adis.php?flag=$post[flag]&postid=$post[postid]&userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]&username=$bbuserinfo[username]&usertitle=$bbuserinfo[usertitle]&post_userid=$post[userid]&post_username=$post[username]')"><img src="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vbimages/postkarma.gif" border="0" alt="Karna"></a>
replace it with:
<a href="javascriptopout('adis.php?flag=$post[flag]&postid=$post[postid]&userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]&username=$bbuserinfo[username]&usergroup=$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]&post_userid=$post[userid]&post_username=$post[username]')"><img src="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vbimages/postkarma.gif" border="0" alt="Karna"></a>

For those of you who want to list the Top 10, here is the code.

Thanks to www.devshed.com!

PHP Code:

$query = "select uid, newthread+reply+view+admin_mod+morereply+totalpenalty as total from storepoint order by total desc limit 0,10";

$my_q = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
$row_count = mysql_num_rows($my_q);
for ($i=0; $i<$row_count; $i++) {
     list($uid, $total) = mysql_fetch_row($my_q);
     $my_q2 = mysql_query("select username from user where userid='$uid'") or die(mysql_error());
     list($username) = mysql_fetch_row($my_q2);
     print "$username has $total points<br>";
     mysql_free_result($my_q2);
}

mysql_free_result($my_q); 


All the fields have to be not null.

[pgowder]

When I view a record in the storepoint table and add up the fields myself, I get different total that what you are displaying????

[kushtiUK]

Pgowder - thanks for this but it does not seem to work - all I get is a list of ten users, that are not the top ten and it does not display the total points but just says - "kushtiuk has points"

Any idea's - has anyone else got this working?

[pgowder]

All the fields have to be not null and have a default value of 0.

[ExcErr]

hey certify, can you and your team make some features:
1. user can give karma points to the same user only once a week !
2. near username in the comment window should stay + or -............
3. if user don't want to show his name in the comment, he can choose some option and his name won't be able to see.....
for example:
"+"|"excerr": Good post
"-" | "******": F*ck off
4. user can see comments about him in user cp under "Subscribed Threads"
5. admin can delete user comments, if there are for exampe censored words !
thx in advance!
THE BEST HACK! respect

I'm sorry I don't fully inderstand! Do I ahve to make a new sql table for this to gather the data and if so what is it called?

I understand about making the default value of 0 and null.

[pgowder]

All the fields in the storepoint table must be not null and default to 0 otherwise a calculation on a null fields wll not work.

[kushtiUK]

alright! I understand now - doh! LOL -= thanks m8
