Tuff One

Ok.. this one is a bastage.

I know you you can set users titles based on post count.. and you can even set custom user titles based on post count and the amount of time the member has been registered.

Is there ANY way to merge post count, registration date AND referrals to equal advancement in the user title "ladder"?

I will kiss the smelly toe of anyone who can tell me how to do this.

What I would like to do, is access this in the admincp under user titles. Then I should be able to click either add or modify a user title. Then I can specify the required amount for each field. For example... to become a senior member, they need a post count of 100, be registered for 30 days, have 5 referrals, and have 100 victory points. After I enter this info, I would simply hit save. When someone reaches these numbers, the board would detect it and automatically change the user title appropriately.

....and yes, those are for NORMAL user titles that I can add, remove, and modify. I will disable custom user titles all together.

If the above is not possible, just let me know. I will try to figure how each number weighs against the others like you stated. I would like to try to avoid this setup if possible, but if it’s the only way than so be it.

Hmmm... this makes it complex...

This'll involve adding stuff to the DB.

I'll have to look into it.

If you do a "each number adds to a total" system then it can just piggyback on the normal title system... just refine it to look for more than postcount.

I'm actually working on one of these sytems. It's based alot of the personal glamour hack and a little bit and Palmer ofShinra's type system. So far I've got the brownie point end of it to include posts, page views, referrals, donations, sponsor clicks, and an adjustable zone. I can probably add anything else into this system. But not much more than that. Like I said I've just got it keeping score. The end I'm unfamiliar with is the how to give options to people based on the points rather than posts and how they can upgrade their status. This is mainly because I haven't dealt with php for very long.

Well, the simple version I have in mind is pretty simple.

Where the board looks at postcount to determine title, instead it's supposed ot look at post count + all other factors.

That's quite simple, really...
