Extended Reputation Display

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This hack extends the existing reputation display system from just the light/dark green pips to green and golden pips, and then golden stars as the pips limit is reached.

The dark green pips are followed by light green pips, which are then followed by 'golden' pips. When the limit these can display is reached, the display is prefixed by a golden Star, and started again. If your reputation is zero then the neutral grey pip is displayed. Negative reputations are displayed in a similar manner using light and dark red pips and stars.

Each time you 'lap' the limit of the pips display, another star is added. The number of stars in unlimited. The number and value of the pips in each group of pips is defined by six settings in the vboptions > reputation options. The supplied default values will display 5 dark green, 5 light green and 10 golden pips before a star is displayed. The golden pips kick in at 2,000 points and it takes 10,000 points to get a star (so 20,000 for two etc ...). A line break can be inserted after the stars.

The extended display system can be enabled/disabled in the options.

Just follow the install instructions in the zip file to install this product.

Your problem is nothing to do with this hack - you have hit a vbulletin limitation.

Your reputation is 2,147,483,647 - this is the maximum value that the database field that stores the reputation value can hold - if you add any more to it, the field overflows and flips to being a very large negative number.

I notice you have 3.5.0 installed - in later versions (3.5.4 ?) a check was added that stops the overflow - instead the value stays at 2,147,483,647.

Your not rethinking this are you Paul? I'd be happy to pay for an add on to this hack.

My Stars are getting huge lol. I'd like to be able to add a higher level with another image. . Like I got 20 stars. If I went and increased the Stars value all my members would be like " I lost my stars" lol.

Also, the stars stop at 20. No more get added after that. Is that by design?

[Paul M]

There is no built-in limit to the number of stars.

More levels could be added, but obviously it would require more code and images. I have no plans for this as the most stars any of our members have is two.

THANK YOU!

This is exactly what I have been searching for. I hadn't been able to find it till just now. I must not be good at searching for things. I have been wanting something like this for months. My members have completely taken to the reputation system, and I needed more pips an extended display.

Thank you so much!

[Paul M]

Glad you like it.

[davelacey]

Installed also.
Thankyou very much, Paul.

[rb290]

how do I make each group level on a separate row ?

[NeutralizeR]

I've just installed this hack on vB 3.6 RC 3 and looks like it's working.

Can you please confirm me, Paul?

Thanks.

[Paul M]

There's no reason it shouldn't.

Since I've been on Holiday I don't have RC3 installed anywhere atm.
