[Forum] about reputation point

[Nagz]

well, i have a problem with the reputation point... As far as i know, every reputation level was represented by one green box (ex: User is on a distinguished road has one green box for example, and User will become famous soon enough will have 2 green box, and so on). But in my case, every reputation level that my member achieved didn't increased their green box. For exmple, if my member already achieved User will become famous soon enough, they just only still have one green box, even though they deserved 2 green box. Am i missing somethg here? I need an answer, thx

You get a box for every 100 reputation points. That does not necessarily correspond to the different levels you set up in your reputation manager.

[Nagz]

oh, ok.. so you mean that we will get another green box after we have 100 reputation point not by the rep. level that we achieved? well, i guess that solve my question.. because i've changed the minimum reputation level settings... actually i want my member get another green box after they got every 50 rep point.. is there no way i can do that?

You may modify the actual php file to do it after every 50 points. SEe the file /includes/functions_reputation.php and you should find the code.

You may modify the actual php file to do it after every 50 points. SEe the file /includes/functions_reputation.php and you should find the code.

I found this code in that file:

$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10)$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10)

If I change that 100 to 50 as in

$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 50); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10)$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10)

Will members get an extra green bar for every 50 points of rep they receive?

Try it on your test site and see. (The code in my file looks different than what you quoted.)

[Fergal]

Thanks Lynne!

I've tried Fergal's suggested fix but I see no changes in the number of green bars between the test site and the live site. Any idea why? I did run Rebuild User Reputation, in case you wonder.

What does your code look like? We're using 4.1.3, would it have changed?

Post 6 says the code looks like this:

$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10)$reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10) 

In my file it just looks like this:

 $reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 100); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
    if ($reputationbars > 10) 

I changed it to this and it worked:

 $reputationbars = intval($reputation_value / 50); // award 1 reputation bar for every 100 points
if ($reputationbars > 10) 

Of course, you may want to change the number of rep bars allowed and what it takes to get a bright green one also.

or you could just use this ....

Among other things you can change the values used by the green pips.
