#1 | member ranking datum

Mon Jul 12, 2010 10:47 pm

Hi Pam,

Xobor 205004

On our forum our members are awarded gold star rankings commensurate with the amount of posts they make. The ranking for 500 posts is 4 gold stars. This has worked perfectly in the past and some members reaching 1000 posts have been awarded 5 gold stars.

The problem is we have a member who is in excess of 500 posts who still has only 3 stars. Could you get one of your boffins to take a look please.

Regards,

Phil

Hi Phil,

please try the following:

Go to "Admin->Users" and open the user-properties of the member where the auto-title doesn't work.
Make sure the "Auto user title" option is set to "normal" and hit save. Note that the title will be updated only after the member write his next post.

If this doesn't work please get back to me and post your board-nr. and the username of the affected member.

Regards,
Ingmar

Hi Ingmar

That seems to have done the trick as it seems to be working perfectly now. Just one other minor thing. When sending a private message between members if you wish to keep a copy you have to tick the box.

We have to tick that box each time, is it supposed to be this way or can the box be made to stay ticked until it is unchecked?

By the way what have you done with Pam?

Phil

It actually is supposed to be that way . We had a poll a while back and this is the setting our members chose.

There are two ways you could change this, but I'm afraid they both require some basic programming knowledge:

The first would be to change the Template. You'd have to create your own copy of the template you are using by creating a copy of the standard template and set the "Inheritance" setting to the template you want to change.
Then you can edit the template-element "PM new" and add the following line right in the beginning of the template.

1
 
{{pm_options_receipt.start}}1{{pm_options_receipt.end}}

The other option would include adding some Javascript to your forum's header that automatically checks the checkbox when you open the new pm page.
