~ extra points for thread owner if the thread's reply more than certain number.

- Admin/Moderator can also add/delete points to user who posts useful thread or nonsense.

exceed the negative point admin set to, will be banned from posting or replying threads.

for that. If user disagree with what they post, their karma points will be deducted.
- User can earn karma points when they post new thread, replies, many people view their thread, many
people reply their thread.

I highly recommended that you upgrade to 1.3a.

For those who are using karma v1.3 just upload adis.php

Bug fixed
- Fix you are not login bug when you are actually login.


Next version
Will be release in April 2002. If you have any features to suggest or recommendation please post a NEW thread in my forum instead of vbulletin.org, so I can keep track of all the suggestions and as this thread is getting too long and I can't keep up with it.

Great hack thanks.

I would like to display the Karma in the postbits for everyone to see who has what but I can't work out how to get it to display.

I use VBportals as well.

Can anyone advise.

[squawell]

nice hack :up: but seems can't work to me

i test it on my localhost and it show up this message

see the pic~

i need someone tell me what's wrong??

You will have to test on it on your actual board or install vBulletin in another directory and install it there at this time on your website because it will not install on your localhost (already tried it).

after installed this hack on my forum (VBB 2.0.1)

everything goes fine on Karma Hack!

but when try to find a user by name at Admin CP

It says (Look at the Attachment)

Help! anyone can make it working on VBB2.0.1
Really need this great hack!!

THX

[SaintDog]

I do not believe it will work with any of the 2.0.x version of vBulletin (sorry to say), although I can not confirm this, I would say it will only work with vBulletin 2.2.x.

[certify]

As for the karma to appear in postbit template and other templates I have to make some changes in the code but you guys have to wait until Feb 18 2002 as I will be taking sometime off for holiday.

[certify]

I have only tested karma v1.0 in vb 2.2.2

[SaintDog]

Sounds good to me - how much needs to be edited? I could probably modify it if I knew what file.

Thanks again for a great hack, all that is really left would be maybe some images like OverGrows? (where it adds images according to the karma you have).....Maybe for the next release?

[certify]

You have to take a look kpoints.php and install_points.php

I have not seem OverGrows hack, what images?

[SaintDog]

Well at this time he does not have it up as he upgraded from 1.1.6 to 2.2.1 - BIG upgrade .

Anyway, his went according to how much karma you had. Let's say you have 20 Karma points, you would have 1 green dot under your name in all your posts (the display of the green dots looks like the stars hack).

Such as this
