Oh, ok. That's odd, I changed it to make it image and in text and neither worked on my board, but the other stuff seems to be working fine. I wouldn't need to add a profile field for this, would I? I edited all the templates as the installation required (took me a good amount of time), but under a post, nothing comes up besides location, posts, etc. Any suggestions? The board is www.dnforum.com , thanks.

Are you sure you got all the templates modified? Specially the postbit template?

[Erwin]

Can't wait for the next update... My members are loving it!

Another thing: Does anyone have any idea how to display the top 10 users with the most karma points on the forum home page? I saw instructions for something similar in this thread, but it did not seem to work.

Problem:

I have not sorted out the header and footer yet but when ever I click to add karma it says this:

You are required to login/register before you can add karma!

Any help?

The Karma hack has got nothing to do with that. You are asking about the wrong hack - that is the Stats Level Hack by Knoman - do a search on the forums and you will find more info about that.

[The Realist]

How can members see who gave them karma? is there a hack to show this.

[Erwin]

You give karma points for a member's specific post by clicking on the karma button. Click the karma button again, and you should see the users who have given karma for that post.
