I've also added a custom script that ties this mod in with the Paid Subscriptions part of vB.

So when a user has an active subscription a scheduled task fires off a script that awards the user with a specific award, and when that subscription expires the same script will remove the award and PM the user.

If the author wants to include this in the mod, let me know. It's one php file that is fired off by the sheduled tasks (I've set mine to run every hour) and two new phrases that control the expired PM text.

I'm interest in this. Can you contact me with the file. Thanks:up:

Right, just written some instructions and uploaded the file and instructions to here for anyone interested.

NOTE: It is specific to the install I done and only works with one subscription and one award, but would be simple enough to tweak for multiple awards / subscriptions. It doesn't stop you having multiple awards however as you pick the award you want to link to the subscription.

A user has posted an updated version of the awards_memberlist.php file. It will be included in the next release.

If you read some of the posts, with the release of YaAS for vBulletin 3.8, the version scheme has changed. v3.7.4 is the latest release for vBulletin 3.7.

I would like that the space between each award image would be smaller, in order to get more images per line.

How could I do it?

Will see what we can do.

I have it all installed, all of my members loved this when I had it before.

I'm seeing this message.....not sure why....

Renae, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

How hard would it be to rewrite the awards.php template so two awards appear per row on the request page.

I have about 60 awards and the page gets pretty lengthy so I'd like to start having two awards per row on the main request page.

Any ideas on how to implement the automation of issuing awards on postcounts would be appreciated.

Any update on the points or postcount awards?

How can I turn the texts that says "awards" in my forum to "Trophies"?

Just the text, dont need to turn any of the files names.
