Miscellaneous Hacks - New Reputation Notification

A small mod that will enable a new reputation notification to be added when someone reps you on the forum.

This mod does not send a new PM for that. I feel sending a pm for a new reputation is quite wasteful as no one really wants to archive that information and it just fills up the pm quota for the end user. Anew notification does the job better and much more efficiently.

This mod achieves the same end goal as Paul's mod here. The only difference is in the approach that this mod takes to accomplish the same. Instead of one global query every time to check if you have received a new reputation, the reputation rating is captured at the time it is given and is then shown to the end user via a notification till such time he resets the notification by visiting his "UserCp" page.

This mod also adds an anchor url on the reputation display block for easier navigation in the USERCP if you have other notifications active.

It's a default feature in vBulletin 4.2.0. You don't even need this.

Hey, can anyone help to rewrite the plugin for vb 3.6.12.
Counter works great and got a reset after visiting the reputations.
In addition i addes the phrase manually.

Now i have to rewrite the notification for Navbar manually

if ($vbulletin->options['reputationenable'])
	{
		$notifications['newrepcount'] = array(
			'phrase' => $vbphrase['newrepcounts_newreps'],
			'link'   => 'usercp.php' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q'] .'#REPS',
			'order'  => 15
		);
	}

Can anyone help me to make it work on 3.6.12?
