OHH! I see ok, Well I can't use it as a store type code then. This may not work for me.
Thanks anyway Todge.
You still did a great job!

Sorry about that. How would you rather it work? I may be able to make the changes for you.

Nope. Not as it is. In fact, the way the code is now the main Admin cannot be 'awarded' at all. It's an easy fix if you'd rather he/she can award themselves though.

Todge, I would like to give admin awards as well. Question though can members see awards that haven't been given in their profile.

[Todge]

OK, I'll edit the code to allow the Admin to give him/herself awards..

And no, 'normal' members can only see the awards that have been awarded to either them or others, they can not see awards that have not been won.

[Todge]

V2.0.1 is ready.

The main Admin can now award him/herself awards.

Thanks Todge

Awesome plugin Todge .

I haven't really played with it, but is it possible that when a member gets an award a popup appears in the corner saying "You have been awarded _____ " to let the member know that they have an award?

[Todge]

I could make a pop-up to tell the member their awards have changed, but I don't particularly want to write the code to work out exactly what has changed.

It would also require localStorage, so if they delete their history/cache or used different computers they would get the pop-up even if nothing had changed. I could use another key, but with keys at a premium, I'd rather not go that route.

Todge. Sorry to be a pain. But would it be possible to add a points system with each award, like you did for me before? If so I would be most appreaciative. Thanks!

Edit: Just wanted to let you know that there's times where award pop up link won't appear. This is in Chrome. Sorry thats the best I can describe it as.

[Todge]

I don't use Chrome, so that's going to be pretty hard to track down. Does Chrome still miss some awards when not using the pop-up?

And how would you like the points displayed? And can you remind me again how your points work? Is it a set amount of points for every award. or does each award give a different amount of points?

[Shorty]

What do you mean miss some awards?

And each award will have a different amount of points. One may be 30, another 20, another 25, another 50. And I would like to be able to set them.

[Todge]

You said in Chrome the awards pop-up link doesn't appear, so for some reason it's missing the awards for that member. If you don't use the pop-up, does Chrome still skip those members?

You do realise that you will not get an awards link if that member has no awards right?

[Shorty]

Yeah. Like I have 3 test accounts that I was using. I gave them all all the awards. And I tried the list but they weren't appearing in the mini profile at all. Yes I do realize that it won't show if they don't have any. Thanks for the help.

[Thesealion]

I can check, but I don't have a way to host award images. if you want to PM me what you're using @shortyverret94 I can take a look and see if i can figure out what's up and get the message to Todge

Understandable, just thought I'd ask
