Milestone Congratulations

Post by Extensions Robot »

Modification name: Milestone Congratulations
Author: MartectX
Modification description: Enables the setup of milestones for members to reach. These may consist of (numbers freely adjustable): Making the 1000th post, creating the 1000th topic or registering as the 50th user. The user accomplishing a goal will be displayed on the index page until the next milestone is reached. Upon reaching a milestone the counter automatically increments by an (once again) adjustable amount.

For every accomplished goal a database entry is created which can be used with medals, cash or points of any kind; also there's a new "history page" that displays all milestones.

Included is also the option to integrate Milestone Congratulations with Simple Points System.
Modification version: 1.2.8
Tested on phpBB version: 3.0.2

sounds/looks brilliant !!! downloading now will test out in a few minutes ...ive been doing this manually on my forum all this time...

Update : Tested works perfect no issues great work thanks much

just one more thing is it possible to list the already past milestones before the mod was installed as well ??

also wonder how hard it would be for someone to develop an integration to give a small medal when a user hits a milestone that will display under a rank image / avatar on view topic ...

Not automatically, because the mod is not clairvoyant. Consider this:

User A makes the 1000th post.
User B makes the 1001th post.
User C makes the 2000th post.
User D makes the 2001th post.

Now you the administrator may delete post nr. 5 because it has no value anymore (an old announcement for example).

Then Milestone Congratulations does its evil work and counts the posts that exist on your board, only now user B made the 1000th post and user D made the 2000th!

Ergo: Retroactively this cannot be determined; only through daily backups which you would have to go through and look up the respective posters manually (I did that for my board)! Insert your findings into the phpbb_milestones table and it will automatically show up in the history.

If any time soon means "this year" for you, then probably yes. You're welcome to try it yourself, though!

yes i see your point ...

but i highly highly doubt ill delete anything older that's there at the moment ...

so i have a list of all the members who hit the milestones ... from what you say if i just add them in the db they will show up on the history page ??

although i was looking at phpmy admin and ill probably have to run a sql query right to add them to the db... ?

ive never added anything in manually before so what sort of structure will the querry have to be to add

user id 3
milestone 1000
type : 1 (which is posts)


within this years great id say, lol ... i dont have any experience writing mods so i think ill just wait ;)

Aye, I chose numbers over language strings as they're easier to sort.
