Thanks

nice hack dt, thanks. i see the name of the custom field 4 does not need to be "Custom Status", does it? thats great because of my language

just a note, id like to use ubb6 new behavior, to just appear "moderator" name on posts made in the moderator fóruns. i saw that your hack changed that, you know how i can change this back? thanks!

edit: im getting some errors, members are getting the jr. member title (with posts to be member), anyone passed thru this already

edit2: oh and hey dt, this is changing the "unregistered" poster title to the "newbie" one. i installed it on 6.04a

edit3: more info on the first error, the profile status of the member is correct, the title in the post is incorrect

edit4: make the Member Rank 1 equal to Member huh.. you could hide one of these..

Thanks DT for this hack,

I installed it on 6.04 no problems. I dont want users to be able to select there own status, so i hae turned custom field 4 off, and i also wanted 15 different stati so i simply changed eery reference of member 1 to 5 to 1 to 15.

Do you for see any problems with me doing this?

I have the exact same problem. Once the member passes the number of post required set for the Members field, the person's profile does not reflect the change. Regardless of the number of posts, the Member status is stuck to the Junior Member Title.

CopyCat- Thanks, I'll look into those.

kristian- Baaaaaaaaad idea. But if you must do it, make sure you do that to all the modified files, including cp_vars_misc.pl where you enter the CP info.

Bhavin- I'll look into that

Hey Dark Templar. I'd REALLY like this script on my UBB (6.04a), and I followed your directions 100% (put things where they were supposed to go, replaced the correct things, etc.) and no matter what, the Control Panel settings don't show up. You said that you could access the "Star Status" from the Misc. menu, but nothings there.

Will this hack work for 6.04a?

Why is it a bad idea DT? I don't want users to have their own custom status either so I just left out the part where you enter Custom Status in field 4. What's "make sure you do that to all the modified files, including cp_vars_misc.pl where you enter the CP info."?

Great hack thanx, Only one problem I am new to this and it is probably something stupid but if I use the graphic stars it works but if I try to use the animated admin graphics it wont load them. Any help would be cool

Yeah, I may change how that is handled so you can use different types of stars in one rank, but it means you will have to type in URLs in the boxes, instead of a list separated with spaces...then again, I'll try to study arrays better, and see what I can do with that.

Make sure the animated admin GIF is in your stars directory, and that you have typed the name of it (not the URL, but the name) in the box.

Check the filenames - the Admin Stars are written with capital letters and have a slightly different spelling. Don't know why they are named like they are, but you have to live with it laugh


some questions are better left unasked ...

Sined, read page 2 of this topic, someone else made the EXACT same mistake installing it as you did, and it says how to fix it.

DT, my question:

I don't want stars, or bars. I don't want custom titles. All I want is MORE statii than "Member" and "Junior Member". Five more would be great.

Is yours the best hack for this?

Thanks

If you just want to add more ranks, then I think this hack will be better:

I'll be sure to try to download this as well in a moment. I'm sure however I'll be back here more. (for one because I'm sure I'll have questions to ask since I'm still rather new to all this)

Btw, DarkTemplar, do you play Shattered Galaxy? That, well nearly that phrase is used in the game as well. smile


I am.

Dark Templar I have a problem. When my users pass the mark for the next level, the status doesnt change. They are still at Junior Member.
Can you give me an idea of what is wrong? I followed your instructions and even reinstalled it, and got the same thing.
I'm using v6.01, here is my board: http://exiso.netfirms.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Thanks

billybob - did you get the stars.zip, unzip it, and upload it to your noncgi directory?

-=Xane=- - No I don't play shattered galaxy. I made up this phrase as a variant to the Zone Wars' bad translation to: "All your base are belong to us"

the3jams - this is the fifty millionth time I've had to answer this. Read the other pages of this, and the pages of this in the beta modifications board if you don't believe about how many times I've had to answer this. Member status is just for the profile, not for display in posts.

Yes I understand that, but that isnt the problem. The problem is when the reach Jr. Member rank in their posts it will not go past that. This has nothing to do with the profile, Im talkin under the name with the stars.

I followed your direction, even tried installing again, and got the same problem.
