Miscellaneous Hacks - Reputation Setting Per Usergroup

This mini mod enables you to be able to set these different settings for each usergroup :

• Daily Reputation Clicks Limit.
• Reputation User Spread.
• reputation power.
• max rep power.

For example you can set that "Moderators" has "Reputation User Spread" as "2",
but "Registered User" has "Reputation User Spread" as "10".

Other example is "Moderator" can have reputation power 5, while "Registered User" will have default reputation power.

You can just adjust the setting on admincp > usergroup > edit.

Check the attachment below for the screenshot.

Any ideas?

Edit: Further info on this. It appears Admins & Super Moderators can see other users as having 5 rep power when they should have 0. However general users see them as having 0.

This seems very odd! lol.

It depends where did you see that weird thing.

For example you set rep power of admin to 10.
When you login as admin account, and you go to admincp > user > edit any user (moderator / registered user), the edited user's rep power will display 10.
I know that's weird

But don't worry on adding rep process all are correct.

It's displaying in the postbit.

Once I removed the 17,-,-,5,1 all people who 'should' be on zero were on zero. This is the same for both admins,super mods & general users.

When adding the 17,-,-,5,1 however, the postbit display 0 for general users, but 5 for Admins/Super Mods.

Yeah on postbit it is not displayed correctly. Atm this only works correctly when adding rep process. I'll fix it on next version with some new GUI for easier usage (which is very soon )

Okay, so even if the postbit does say 5, those users who should have zero actually do have zero?

if I decided to make everything as default again, I just have to empty all the settings on each usergroup? Will the the reputation power be back to default or zero?

To reset everything back to default (not to zero) on all usergroups, you can :
- leave all fields empty, or
- disable / uninstall the product.

I installed the latest version but it still doesn't work. When I put in a number on the usergroup for rep spread, it just stays empty it doesn't save.

How come?

[JustAskJulie]

I really just want to cap out the maximum reputation power for a user. By default you can do this for admins, but I have users who have been around about as long as I have and while I've capped my own power I can't cap theirs. Any suggestions on how to do this? This hack doesn't seem to be my answer as it just sets all users in that usergroup to a specific power level.
