Hi Todge! Thanks so much for 0.1.4, that has fixed the '&apos' issue. A few more queries regarding this plugin: 1. Can you confirm whether there is a version that has the option for Reply to still have Attack/Retreat options? I didn't see that in the options of 0.1.4. 2. Would it be possible to add the option to upload a custom image to replace the " DECEASED" image that shows over the creature icon when defeated? Additionally, the ability to customize the: " Current HP: DEAD! Final blow dealt by [user]" text that displays when the monster has been defeated would be much appreciated As I am using the plugin for a Pokemon RP site neither of those phrases mesh very well with the image of battling and catching a Pokemon. Appreciate all the hard work  Let's start with query 1.. Yes, version 0.1.4 has the Attack/Retreat options when replying. I assume you are not getting these options? |

As you are getting the awards pop-ups, there should be nothing blocking the code pop-up, as it's assentially the same pop-up, just reworked to display the code instead. What are your category names? And have you moved all of your images into the right hand side of the pop-up? Yeah, I'm not sure why it's not coming up. I was testing it out by splitting my skills and spells into two categories ("Skill Levels" and "Spells"), so I moved all of the images yes. I tried multiple times, and it seems I did everything correctly so it's quite strange nothing's coming up. Strange.. Could you please post or PM me a link to your forum so I can take a look, Thanks. |

Hi. Would it be possible to add a rewind/fast forward button or slider, and is it possible to have music continue to play throughout the forum when you go to another page within the forum or at least continue playing from where it left off? If not possible/would take too much work, I understand. Thanks. It's all possible. To keep the music playing across pages is not entirely possible, it would need a key to store the start and end points to know where it left off, and as keys can only be written to after a user operation, I don't see how that would be possible. BUT, all this is beside the point. These plugins are aRMY83's creations, I agreed to look after them for him, but I am not willing to change them beyond fixing them if they stop working. Any additional functions or meaningful changes would take that away, and that's not something I'm prepared to do. Sorry. |

Is it in any way possible to have this plugin play music in more places than just the Home page? Here ya go.. This version should allow you to choose which boards to have the Music Player appear on as well as the Home Page. Music Player |

Of cause... Just follow the instructions in the attached image. Unfortunately, you cannor select one groupt to be displayed as alist with another displayed as a pop-up, and that is unlikely to be included in the future, but I am also unlikely to create an 'Awards x 3' plugin. That would be a lot of work and would also require more extensive changes to the main plugin. Sorry. That's okay, especially as it'd be a lot of work. No worries Thank you for the instructions! A visual guide and everything; super helpful. Now I have a better understanding of this, and know what to do to make it work (much simpler than I expected too!) -- I can definitely work with this. Not exactly as I intended, but no this is still great. It has a separation, which is the key aspect I wanted for this particular new category. However, when I click "set" to get the code... nothing happens? I don't know why, but it never pops up (and isn't being blocked by anything, as far as I can tell). I waited a bit, tried clicking it again, still nothing. Any suggestions? As you are getting the awards pop-ups, there should be nothing blocking the code pop-up, as it's assentially the same pop-up, just reworked to display the code instead. What are your category names? And have you moved all of your images into the right hand side of the pop-up? |

....I'm missing something, or the things you mentioned are done by coding (which I really hope isn't the case, personally). Could you explain how this all works? Thanks! Of cause...

Hi TodgeI have the Awards plugin, as well as Awards x2... it may seem like overkill, but would it be possible to have an Awards x3? Each have a very different purpose, style, and sizing. So for a 3rd I would also like to have a list of actual awards  Would that be possible? I can't simply use Awards x2 twice; do you have any suggestions? The 'Awards x 2' plugin is no longer needed, with version 3.0.7 you have the option to re-order and catagorize your awards, so you can have as many catagories or groups as you like. |

Shopping plugins are notoriously long winded and complex plugins to create, and with PB V6 somewhere around the corner, you are unlikely to get any takers to write a bespoke plugin for you at the moment. That being said, P̌̓aͧś̀t̀u͒le͆o͂2̀3̃̓ created a very good E-Shop plugin that may well suit your needs.. E Shop Help ThreadE Shop Plugin |

Hi Todge , My create thread button is moved to the far right of the pagination menu. I believe I used a code from Brian to do that. I think maybe the plugin can't find it, because the additional button is not appearing. Do you have any ideas how I can get it to work? Could you please PM me the code Brian gave you to move the button. |

Hopefully resetting the key fixed the issue. I'll let you know if I see any future issues on that front. Good to know that the quote previous posts thing isn't a bug. Would it be possible to make that feature toggleable? Players quote previous posts quite often on our site. I appreciate the offer to use version 0.1.5, but because we're more oriented on long-form posting the users definitely use the reply page more often than quick reply. Also, I've noticed a bug with the text for creature descriptions. If there is an apostrophe in the appearance text anywhere it will be replaced with '&apos' upon spawn. Can this be fixed or is there a way around this? Yup.. Can you please try Version 0.1.4 |

The user in the above example was using Firefox. They haven't reported issues with any other plugin afaik, though I have noticed problems with post template plugin, which at least one of the users was using when they encountered problems with the creature hint plugin. I've since reset the key on that plugin, so we'll see if that helps. In the instance linked above, the user was unable to trigger the spawn, and they had never interacted with the plugin before. Once the mod post triggered the spawn, they encountered no further issues, and could attack/retreat without issue. Their stats also showed up in their profile, and they have since been able to trigger spawns in other threads. The issue appears to be very sporadic, and only seems to impact triggering of spawns. It sounds like an issue with the key. For reason the spawn info maybe wasn't being written to the user's key, but once they interacted with the creature after it was spawned by another member, the key then worked at it should. Hopefully this is just a blip and it will now behave itself. That's not a bug. Some time ago I was asked to allow members to chat in a creature thread without the need to attack/retreat, so I allowed quotes to go through without the creature being effected. The latest version (0.1.5) disables the posting page too. You can only attack/retreat from the quick reply, to hopefully limit the chance of data crossover. This version has not been uploaded to the library, but you are welcome to try it if you wish. |

Thanks for the fast reply. I checked the settings and they are set to everyone/members and staff, as recommend in the key permissions section of the plugin. I have confirmed that the user is not using mobile. In this case they were posting from desktop. However, it's good to know that posting on non-desktop mobile can cause issues. Is there anything else that could be causing the issue? Could you please let me know which browser they are using, and if possible, would they be willing to test the plugin using FireFox? Also, is this member having any issues with any other plugins? And does the Creature Hunt plugin work for them in evry other respect? Can they attack etc.? And does the plugin display their hit points? |

Hi Todge! Love the plugin. It's a huge hit on the Pokemon site that I run, however I've encountered an occasional problem where a player will be unable to trigger the monster spawn by posting, or may need to repost to trigger the spawn. Here is an example. As you can see, the user posted twice, neither time triggering the spawn, and then a mod posted and triggered the spawn without issue. I've had this issue happen a few times now, usually with the same players, and always resolved either by reposting (which didn't work in this case) or by having someone else post. It sounds like a problem with the settings/permissions of this specific user, but it's not consistent... Is this a known problem? What could be causing this? There are a couple of reasons this could happen. Make sure that the key settings are set to Members and Staff for all options. Also, if this member id posting using a mobile device, the plugin will not be working. Currently plugins do now work on mobile devices unless they are set to 'desktop mode', this will change with V6, when it is releared plugins will work across all devices. |

Would that be possible? I can't simply use Awards x2 twice; do you have any suggestions?
