Help:Level Up Meter Plugin with Monetary System Plugin.

[njrk97]

Sorry if the Title is a little confusing, had to fit everything in with the text limit.


Regardless the Long and short is that i am somewhat of a complete rookie in regards to proboards code. So i was wondering if i could get any assistance code wise on here, basically on my site i wanted my user's power levels and their 'money' to be the same thing, because of this i was looking into using the Monetary system Plugin in a super basic form, (users gain money/power by posting in a 1 to 1 conversion, 1post = 1money/power).


Said Plugin Here support.proboards.com/thread/429762/monetary-system-updated-1st-2015

Now the tricky part is that my site also uses the Level up Meter Plugin here

www.proboards.com/library/plugins/item/556

Its a handy little plugin that makes it far easier for users to see their rank and how far along they are in it, but the issue is that it only measures post count.

So i was wondering if its possible to modify the code of the Level up Plugin so that instead of looking at Posts for its Ranking and leveling up, its instead looks at the Money from the monetary plugin, and if it is possible, how i would got about writing that code (Like i said, im not at all familiar with Proboards Coding).


Thank you for any assistance given.

I'm trying somewhat to recreate the functionality of this plugin www.proboards.com/library/plugins/item/556 as while that plugin is handy, its ranking up system is strictly locked to post count and i wanted to transition it over to the Monetary plugin system instead

The Level Up plugin is inspired by a header/footer code from an older version of Proboards  and that code was also locked to post count. You can however "trick" the Level Up plugin into using the money total by editing the mini-profile of the theme as described in the Monetary support thread and adding a hidden secondary money amount display preceded by the text "Posts: " thus getting the Level Up plugin to grab that value rather than the actual post totals value that comes after it in the mini-profile
