This plugin adds the award to the postbit (classic and horizontal). On the profile page you will see a row for the Awards and display the amount and a link to the details page. The awards page can also be directly linked to if you want to add a spot in your header. It's awards.php of course.

I plan to add more to this plugin but right now this is a great base. Any suggestions or bugs found please post at Mybb Central.

Troubleshooting Templates:
Here are the 2 template changes needed if they didn't take during install:

Template: postibit_author_user
Find:{$post['warninglevel']}
Add After:

Code:

<br /><!-- AWARDS -->

Template: member_profile
Find:{$reputation}
Add After:

Code:

{$myawards}

UPDATE 1.2:
Added a link from the awards to the award page in postbit.
Fixed a bug if no awards were given in the awards page.

To update simple overwrite existing files with the new ones. No activation/deactivation required.

Hopefully next version will have the Modcp for giving moderators ability to give awards from modcp.

UPDATE 1.3:
Fixed bug for forums with more than 65,000 members.
Added awards in private messages.
Added title tags to awards in postbits.

Thanks.

Thanking you so so much Labrocca. I have been hoping for a release like this. Exactly what i need for my style forum.

Thanks Labrocca, this is a great plugin and one which will be used a lot on my board!

For me i had to add {$post['awards']} to the postbit template to get it to show as it had i think a comment there. Not sure as i deleted it already.
It is working and counting etc but not showing images. I have chmodded the directory and images show in CP.

*Update*

I seem to be unable to delete old awards from awards index.

Brilliant plugin

Thanks for this plugin!

I have the same problem as Damin, How did you get the icons of the rewards on the postbit?

[crabby]

I have the same problem too

I had some issues getting template changes to work.

Here are the 2 template changes needed if they didn't take during install:

Template: postibit_author_user
Find:{$post['warninglevel']}
Add After:

Code:

<br /><!-- AWARDS -->

Template: member_profile
Find:{$reputation}
Add After:

Code:

{$myawards}

That's it. The rest should be good. I will test it more to see if something is wrong. I really don't like how that function works for plugins. It uses regex and normally screws up.

Can you explain that further?
