[BETA] Medal System MOD [ Latest: 0.4.6 ]

[xmulder]

is it possiable to make it so that the medal moderator does not have them automatically in their profile ias what i mean it looks cool in the normal profile, just not the mods one

Mac,

Glad you will think about show the Metal in Viewtopic page.

One more suggestion:

Make the Metals clickable in the www.domain.com/phpbb/metals.php so that once clicked it takes to the Metal's group page where all the receipients are listed.


One question:

The metals system looks to me just like the usergroup management. I am going to have many UNIQUE metal to give out, so I will need to create a lot of metal groups, will this be an effective method?

Thanks!

If you are not an admin or medal moderaor the tables are all messed up.

Can you make the images display on viewtopic just like the shop mod? In the shop mod, you can specify the images in ACP, then if a user has more awards then the amount of displayed images you specify, it'll display the word "more..." next to the last image.

For example, you specify to display maximum of 5 images in viewtopic. If a user has 7 awards, it'll show 5 images, then next to the last image, it shows "more..." and a link to the award page.

To finx that
open

Code: Select all

medals_body.tpl

find

Code: Select all

		<!-- BEGIN switch_mod_option -->
		<tr>
			<td class="row1" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
				<span class="gensmall"><a href="{medals.U_MEDAL_CP}" class="gen">{L_LINK_TO_CP}</a></span>
			</td>
		</tr>
		<!-- END switch_mod_option -->

replace with

Code: Select all

		<tr>
			<td class="row1" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
			<!-- BEGIN switch_mod_option -->
				<span class="gensmall"><a href="{medals.U_MEDAL_CP}" class="gen">{L_LINK_TO_CP}</a></span>
			<!-- END switch_mod_option -->
			</td>
		</tr>

the user management page is only accessble by admin or medal moderator of the medal he/she is in charge with. So by making a clickable link is not too useful.

The real display page for everyone is medals.php

The metals system looks to me just like the usergroup management. I am going to have many UNIQUE metal to give out, so I will need to create a lot of metal groups, will this be an effective method?

when designing this MOD, I have a more "real-life" medal system in mind, where many member can be given the same medal, so it would be easier with a usergroup-kind of management.

If you are think more like each user receving different medal(s), then proable using Extra Fields in user profile MOD would be easier to managment.

Can you make the images display on viewtopic just like the shop mod?

Yes, I will look into this and do something about it

My first two SQL installs went successfully but the third gave an error:

INSERT INTO `phpbb2_config` VALUES ('allow_medal_dispaly', '0')
+++ Error: Table 'Database1.phpbb2_config' doesn't exist

INSERT INTO `phpbb2_config` VALUES ('medal_display_row', '1')
+++ Error: Table 'Database1.phpbb2_config' doesn't exist

INSERT INTO `phpbb2_config` VALUES ('medal_display_col', '1')
+++ Error: Table 'Database1.phpbb2_config' doesn't exist

Table prefix is correct.
I think the table must exist but what could its name be? I'm sure I've got pretty much standard naming.

[ycl6]

INSERT INTO `phpbb2_config` VALUES ('allow_medal_dispaly', '0')
+++ Error: Table 'Database1.phpbb2_config' doesn't exist

When using phpmyadmin, Are you inside the database while executing the command?
I think you need to be in a database, so that the above action means inserting into a table in that db, else, it will mean inserting to a database. (my geuss)

edit: or in the sql statement, you need to include the database name.

if no luck, you can still key-in those values manually

Thanks for the quick reply. My problem was simpler though, that I had phpbb_ as prefix, not phpbb2_. Doh.

[ycl6]

haha, I thought you said you are sure the prefix is correct
hope the rest installation went fine
let me know what you think of the MOD after you are done
