I hate to post that but that is where you can contact me 20 hours a day in the chatbox or whatever BUG me so I release it to you guys. It has been done for 5 months ahah. Just need to change donation table since I created own system. Then an AUTO build XML which would take 5 seconds for a dump. So PLEASE BOTHER ME or I will never get to sending this to you guys. Just so busy with other projects things keep getting pushed ahead.

[Xanlamin]

As it was designed to work on 3.6.5...yes you can use it on 3.6.8

[mum2gem]

Ive uploaded this and i dont get any of the screens that is shown in the screen shots page and i cant figur out how to add medals?

[Xanlamin]

what version of vB you running?

[mum2gem]

its 3.6.8

Just an idea AW, but tickboxes in the user bitfields for awards would be ideal for somebody like me who utilises the Awards system heavily. Or at the least, the ability to add more than one award at a time as opposed to the current heavy handed way of navigating.

[RollaJedi]

I too have a suggestion. Could we possibly get the option to let moderators give out only certain awards, or awards in certain categories? I want to let my mods the ability to give awards, but not all of them. I have a collecting site so I have mods that each oversee a particular area of collecting. I would like to have the mod for toy collecting to be able to give out the toy collecting awards, but thats it. And likewise for say cars collecting, giving only the cars collecting mod the ability for giving that particular category of awards. And so on and so on.

With the release of vBulletin 3.7, is there any possibility of a newer version being released or of some template edits being made to show the awards for a user in a tab on their profile page?

If that wouldn't be a full release, could someone point me in the right direction about how to go about creating such an award tab for the users' profile pages?
