Moderating and Reputation Issue

by Cell Tennyson July 23rd 2013, 6:39 am

Hi everybody!

1)After i've made my friend a Moderator of my forums this message keeps on getting displayed right below the Categories. How do i stop them from being displayed?

2)Also my friend (Moderator) and other members say that they cannot see the Repute buttons in the topics(the + and - button) Why?? i have activated the Reputation system but the buttons only show up for me.. my members can't see the Reputation buttons. Confused

For hiding who is a Moderator of a specific forum navigate to..
Admin Panel > Display > Homepage > Structure and Hierarchy > Hierarchy(Last Table)

Tick 'no' for 'Display forum moderators' and save.

For the issue with reputation try the following
Admin Panel > Modules > Points and reputation > Reputation

Find 'Display this field for users that are at least' click the drop down and choose who you wish to display the Reputation field for.

The First Problem is solved Smile

but the second still prevails. I logged as my friend who is Moderator still i don't get the + or - button in the message box, though i have chosen "Display this field for users who are at" Members. that button is only available for me. Crying or Very sad

PS sorry for the double post..

Hello,

Please don't double post. Posts must be separated by 24 hours, thank you.

If activated, then the reputation system should be displayed for everyone. Please note that you won't be able to see those buttons on your own posts. You will only be able to see the buttons on other members' posts that you haven't given a rating to.

I will see If I can find any solution, so far I've found nothing. Someone else may know something I don't, until then I'll look.

The problem is that My members cannot Repute me as there is no + or - button for them only I (admin) can Repute members since it is available for me. As a result my Reputation is 0 while i have Reputed some of my members to 1. As long as there is no + or - button for them available my reputation will always be 0. Crying or Very sad

Could you post a screenshot of the administration panel page for your reputation set up?

by Cell Tennyson July 24th 2013, 9:05 am

Here you go Mr SLGray this is the Sshot of the Reputation Tab of my Admin panel.

by kirk July 24th 2013, 3:25 pm

do you have the reputation management set as well?
Other then it is like base said you will not see them for your own post.
Or may be it is their browser or the images have to be re-upped?

check your reputation management first,
then i would create a test members account you can log in to so you can see things as members do
and you can see whats.

by Cell Tennyson July 24th 2013, 7:16 pm

Yeah i know that members won't be able to repute their own post. So what i did is.
I logged into one of my friends account and then i thought i would repute myself from my friend's account but there was no + or - button on my post in my friend's account... Confused

It could be the designer of the theme added a CSS code to not display the reputation. You could try another theme.

Before you do that, do you have any JavaScripts? If you do turn off JavaScript Management and see if they appear.

by Cell Tennyson July 25th 2013, 7:19 am

Well i don't know how to make CSS codes and Java Scripts i am a noob at it. but i'll check what you said Mr SLGray.. Smile

Java scripts are already off and still my members don't have + or - buttons in their account..

I haven't found much that could really be causing this on your forum. Can you remember when exactly you activated the reputation system?

I only have two ideas to hopefully try and help.

1. ) Try deactivating the reputation and then reactivate it.

or

2. ) Try resynchronizing your forum.

Admin Panel > General > Forum > Configuration

Scroll to the very bottom and tick 'Resynchronize your forum' then save.

by kirk July 25th 2013, 6:30 pm

so are you now saying no one at all can see them?
be sure you have the images in your pics management> advanced mode>mini icons
down towrds the bottom of the list look for these.

and also try what SethC1995 has suggested above as well.

by Cell Tennyson July 26th 2013, 9:33 am

Nothing Works @ Kirk all my Mini icons are enabled. @SethC1995 resynchronized still no luck! I think This Reputation system is only for Admins and only an admin can vote someone not other members. I am an admin of GTA MODDING REVOLUTION and i can rep + anyone but my members can't Rep + me since there is not + or - button available for them (in my posts) better to disable the Rep system because its useless if only i can repute someone and no other can rep me. Confused

by Ange Tuteur July 26th 2013, 10:28 am

Hmm well if resyncing and deactivate/reactivate didn't work maybe you should try disabling your CSS temporarily to see if that is the problem.

Go to..

Admin Panel > Display > Colors and Pictures > Colors > CSS Stylesheet Tab

If you have any CSS codes in the stylesheet click the textarea and press 'ctrl+a' to select all and 'ctrl+c' to copy the contents to your clipboard. Be sure to back up your CSS in a text document. (i.e paste the contents and save the file.) Then delete all the CSS in your stylesheet and hit submit. Once you've done so check in one of your member accounts to see if you can see the +/- buttons.

If that does not solve your issue then copy back your CSS codes and submit them. After this I'm completely out of ideas.

by Cell Tennyson July 26th 2013, 5:09 pm

Sorry but nothing works i have disabled that Reputation and i don't think this problem can be solved. My members will never be able to vote/Rep me.. Sad

Can some technician help me??

by kirk July 26th 2013, 6:32 pm

Did you ever create a regular members account to use for testing things as a member, if not you should because there are many thing that you can test with a test account to be sure they are working as they should be Smile

So ok all i can figure is this? look what you have it set to.
any member that may not have 10 post will not see it/be able to add rep until they have at least 10 post in.
Now with that said. Any member that dose not have at least 10 rep yet. will also not be able to see/add rep. so i would change that to zero, then as far as the post count that's up to you.

Activate reputation system : Yes

"Thanks" button : No

"Reputation" field name :Display this field in : Profile AND Messages

Display this field for users that are at least :members

Default Value 1

:Minimum messages before vote count : 10

:Minimum reputation before vote count : 10 you may want to change this to zero

Maximum votes by day and by user : 10

Delay between two votes by a user.1000
