I don't know who validated this MOD but I think they could have done a better job. I found several issues.

1.
Many edits were hard to find because there were multiple instances of them. For example, in includes/acp/acp_modules.php

The following code find occurs more than once:

Code: Select all

      else
      {

It's hard to determine which place you should make the edit.

2.
In includes/session.php it says to make the following edit:

Code: Select all

      // [+] Karma MOD
      if (!class_exists('karmamod'))
      {
         require($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_karma.' . $phpEx);
      }
      global $karmamod;
      $karmamod = new karmamod();
      // [-] Karma MOD

But the MOD tells you to upload functions_karma.php to includes/mods/ so it throws off an error until you upload function_karma.php to the correct directory which would be simply includes/

3.
I have Karma power disabled. I tested the MOD by giving 1+ karma to one of my members.

In View Topic it shows I gave them 1 karma:


But in UCP when viewing their karma comments it shows I gave them 5 karma:


I don't think this MOD was ready to be released.

[jamiet757]

Ok well nevermind then, I guess I will be sticking with the Thanks for Posts MOD instead. The reason I was interested in this one was the ability to leave comments. I just changed the language file to say Karma easily.

This and the fact that the MOD author hasn't even visited this topic in 4 days since it was validated, makes me think this mod is going nowhere.

[PinoyEngine™]

This is a very cool mod!
Thanks.

[Krej]

i need help guys !
i cant see it??
i installed all of it one by one
do i have to activate it on the backend or something?

Plus, the feature list is missing.

The feature list is in the FEATURES.html file in the docs folder of the download.

Many edits were hard to find because there were multiple instances of them. For example, in includes/acp/acp_modules.php

The following code find occurs more than once:

Code: Select all

      else
      {

It's hard to determine which place you should make the edit.

The usual process for mods is that the code changes are done sequentially as laid out in the MODX file, so the

Code: Select all

      else
      {

you're looking for would be the first one after the preceding find:

Code: Select all

         closedir($dh);

This and the fact that the MOD author hasn't even visited this topic in 4 days since it was validated, makes me think this mod is going nowhere.

Bear in mind that the developers of these mods do it in their own time, usually for no payment, and could also have a life outside of this forum. The developer of this mod has been working on it for a couple of years and may just be taking a break.
