Show Thread Enhancements - Extended Reputation Display

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This hack extends the existing reputation display system from just the light/dark green pips to green and golden pips, and then a series of bronze, silver and gold stars as the pips limit is reached.

The dark green pips are followed by light green pips, which are then followed by gold pips. When the limit these can display is reached, the (prefix) display of stars begins - starting with the bronze stars, then silver stars and finally gold Stars. If your reputation is zero then the neutral grey pip is displayed. Negative reputations are displayed in a similar manner using light and dark red pips and red stars - however, there is only one star level for negative reputation.

Each time you 'lap' the limit of the pips display, another star is added. The number of each star is limited by an ACP option (by default, 5 bronze = 1 silver, and 5 silver = 1 gold). The number and value of the pips in each group of pips is defined by six settings in the vboptions > reputation options. A line break can be inserted after the stars. The extended display system can be enabled/disabled in the options.

Just follow the install instructions in the zip file to install this product.


History:

v3.7.001 : First Release for vb 3.7
v3.7.002 : Bronze and Silver stars added to make three star levels.

You can do whatever you want on your forum.

I just wanted to drop in and say thanks for this new version Paul! The three levels make a HUGE difference!

Thank you!!

hey paul, any chance of adding in an option for alignment of the stars?

for example, currently they default to start from the left...

it would be great if I could tell it to align the row of stars in the center of the below pips (the way it displays in the member listings)

for example,



now I redid my stars... so that they would be 5 point stars that would match the dark green, light green, and gold... but the rest is simply from the memberlist page...

if you arent interested in adding an option for it, would you perhaps be willing to help me find which template that I could edit myself in order to incorporate such a change on my own board? (I cant seem to find it :\ )

note: I am talking about specifically where the rep is displayed in the profile, and in the postbit

cool.. installed

[Sykko]

no responce still huh?

perhaps he is bored with this mod???

oh well... guess I will have to dig into the code myself then :\

screw it, im too busy with other projects too...

[Paul M]

Perhaps he just didnt see your post, did you think of that

No, im not going to add an alignment option.

[Sykko]

well then maybe you need glasses

sorry if I seemed pushy I didnt mean to

I think I was kinda frustrated and pissy at the time... I shouldnt have blahed out here as a result :\

I love your mods... and didnt mean any disrespect

For some reason, the reputation stars don't show up correctly. Like someone having 60000 rep points have less stars than someone having 20000 rep points... I didn't like the 3 pictures rep thing so I renamed all the same image to the gold,red,brown stars. Thanks.

[Paul M]

Stars are not cumulative, if you have 4 bronze and then get enough points for silver, you will just get one silver star, not one silver plus four bronze.

Installed and looking good, thanks Paul.
