I recently added awards for my members of the forum and when doing so, all the members lost their custom profile backgrounds do to an extra tab on the profile. Does anyone have any suggestion to fix this issue?

I have everything working Ok on my vB 4.1.1. MOTM for that!

Just one question: I use the automation too. I will like to see the automation on days registered to be also connected with an minimum amount of posts.
I've made an award for 5years of registration. Did not even think about, what would happend. You get it? Yeah, 1200 awards were made for every user, who is registered, even the ones with only one post.
Like this, the weight of an award is going to hell. So i did cancel all that awards...
Still the idea of an award for 5years is nice... Would you, please, think about this one?

And, then i find a big bug. When i click on "delete" of that one automation task, al my automation task's dissapeared. I have to create them all again.

But anyway, i really like this one!

On the previous page I had a couple of fixes that dealt with user profile pages that you could try.

I dont see a setting for usergroups is there another reason they wouldn't show.?


*edit*
I didn't specify, but i meant they are not showing in the post/signature area (except for admins), everywhere else seems fine.

Any thoughts why this might be.?

*edit*

After some testing it has nothing to do with usergroup, but just certain users that it just doesn't show.
Is there individual settings in UserCP that they could change to not show them.?

I used the awards system in 3.8.1 and it was great. I just updated to 4.1.2 and installed the new award system, but it's made a mess of my site template on the page that shows all of the awards, and the tab on the user profile page is not formatted like the rest of my profile tabs. I can PM you a link to my site if you want to look. Not sure what I can do to fix this, but it's pretty bad.

When ever someone requests an award, this message comes up:

vBulletin Message
There's some error when sending your award request. Please contact site's administrator for assistant.

But the request still sends. Any idea how I can get rid of this message?

Also, how can I make the awards under the Rep Power in the postbit instead of beside it?

Is there any way to automate an award for a user that starts a thread that grows to a certain number of posts? Or is pretty much the only automation related to overall post count?
