The template edit of course is necessary.

Strange... mine wouldn't work without doing the file edit. Must have interference from another plugin/product. Sorting that out will give me something to do tomorrow... er... later today. lol

I dont know if anyone requested this, but when you click the award icons in postbit you are taken to the member profile page.

Is it possible to be taken to the actual award tab on the member profile page ?

Thanks for a great mod!

I'm still waiting on word on how to change the message.

Look 3 Posts above yours, thank you. (You only need to do the template edit)

Can someone post how a link to one of their member profiles that shows how it should look? I cannot get the awards to show in members profiles. This is on 3.6.10pl2

In member.php find:

		'title' => $vbphrase['contact_info'],
	),

Below that add the following:

	'myawards' => array(
		'class' => 'MyAwards',
		'title' => $vbphrase['my_awards'],
	),

NOTE: It appears the coder is trying to do this with the plugin "YAAS in Member Profile - Profile", but it doesn't seem to be working.

Then, replace the entire awards_postbit_display template with:

<!-- show awards -->
<if condition="$post[showuserawards]">
<br />
<fieldset><legend><a href="member.php?u=$post[userid]&tab=myawards" title="$vbphrase[more_awards]">$vbphrase[award_showcase]</a></legend>
<div>
$post[userawards]
<br>
<a href="member.php?u=$post[userid]&tab=myawards" title="$vbphrase[more_awards]">$vbphrase[total_awards]</a>: $post[num_awards]
</div>
</fieldset>
</if>
<!-- /show awards -->

For anyone who has edited this template, all you need to do is replace the "#award" appended on the links with "&tab=myawards".

Hope that helps!

Great Help, Thank You Very Much, Works Really Fine. :up::up:

I'd also like to Add that for the Postbit Icons of the Awards to Point Right inside the Tab, you should also Modify the "awards_bit" Template Replacing the Current Code with the Following One (notice that I only Added a "&tab=myawards" before "#aw_issue$award[issue_id]" and after "u=$award[userid]":

<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$award[userid]&tab=myawards#aw_issue$award[issue_id]"><img src="$award[award_icon_url]" alt="$award[award_name]" border="0" /></a>&nbsp;

(All of This Thanks To Your Very Useful Indications). :up:

My Best Regards.

This will not work on 3.6 version, as they do not have the tabs in the profile, you need version 2.1.4 of this hack which can be found HERE

I dont know how to make this work in MySQL and MySQLi but MySQLi is recommended over MySQL by both the vbulletin developers and creates of mysql so this is a simple fix.

Maybe this can be thrown into the main post.

Awesome, this fixed my problem also, thanks.


A little bug, my awards disappear from post bit after I edit a post, but display again once I click away.

[hjmaier]

I detected a small error.

I use links with [url] tags in awards. It seems that tags are not turned into html when displaying in the member profile. I can only see the tags there.

oh, i converted from 2.1.4. There everything was fine.

Best regards
