The most important thing is, that you keep the points field in the users table intact. So uninstall the complete old mod including the tables and fields except the field points in phpbb_users table.

Then simply install the mod as a new mod. After everything is ready, you need then to delete the field user_points from the phpbb_users table and rename your old field points to user_points. This way you can keep the old user points.

Great mod. Just a couple things.
- Reset User Points has no effect. (Also appears user logs not functioning)
- Can a maximum point value be set for a post?

PHPBB 3.0.7-PL1 (Upgraded from PHPBB2 then updated to 3.0.7-PL1)
Modx installed (many mods installed when version was PHPB2 including points mod)
Using Subsilver2

UP installed after several attempts. Started via modx and finished it manually. I'm guessing this is causing the above issues but not sure what to troubleshoot. Again, great mod and any suggestions would be welcomed.

Is it possible to recalculate points with topics and posts that have been made before the point system was installed?

I looked through the settings but can't seem to see anything

There is an SQL that can add points to members prior to the UP being installed... You should be able to find it in the pre-validation topic.

However, I don't remember anyone posting an SQL that will recalculate the points for prior topics and posts.

Hi,

I have just had this mod added to my site and would like to know if:

It is possible to only allow a user to post to a specified forum only when they have enough points and to pay, in points, for making that post. At the moment, I have a classified ads section where users make a small donation to the forum running cost. I would like to change this so that they can post their add when they have reached a specified amount of points and also to pay, in points for each ad they place??

Also, If I add the shop mod/plugin, would it allow users to buy points for a small donation to my running costs??

Regards, fujcube

Currently, UP is setup to reward Points for posting, not to require Points for posting. I definitely would like to see the latter added though.

About your Shop Mod question... Wouldn't they need Points to buy the Points :?: Your question is a circular reference :roll: :P

However, another way of going about it is to reward those that make donations to your site with Points.

I just installed this mod and I'm getting an error when I try to view a topic. I think I messed up an edit somewhere, but I can't figure out where I messed up. I do have several other mods installed as well; could one of them be conflicting with this one?

Code: Select all

SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Unknown column 'pb.id' in 'field list' [1054]

SQL

SELECT u.*, z.friend, z.foe, p.*, pb.id AS pb_id, pb.holding AS pb_holding FROM (phpbb_users u, phpbb_posts p) LEFT JOIN phpbb_zebra z ON (z.user_id = 2 AND z.zebra_id = p.poster_id) WHERE p.post_id = 5 AND u.user_id = p.poster_id

BACKTRACE

FILE: includes/db/mysql.php
LINE: 174
CALL: dbal->sql_error()

FILE: viewtopic.php
LINE: 1003
CALL: dbal_mysql->sql_query()
edit: Disregard this ^-^ Messed up an edit in viewtopic. All fixed now. Thanks for the great mod!

When I try and install this mod, I KEEP getting this error, even after it completely removed all of my own images and such, and replaced them with the defaults:
ERROR: Could not open the file ./styles/subsilver2overall_header.html for reading.

And when I try using automod, I get this:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function gzdeflate() in /www/zxq.net/d/r/a/drakengardrequiem/htdocs/phpbb/includes/functions_compress.php on line 372

I'm starting to get really fed up. Just a little.
