    Solved Award System Questions

    Post by Beyonder November 9th 2021, 11:53 pm

    Ok, so I am extremely happy about this new feature! this will def help out any Forumotion hosted website!! My questions are gonna be simple for any staff who knows the answer...and I do apologize if this is in the wrong section.

    Question 1: Do the members of the forum receive prior awards or not?

    Question 2: Is there a preferred size limit for awards? or is it automatically resized for the forum?

    Question 3: Can individuals be excluded from awards? (Example: Im a founder and I don't feel that awards should be given to me)

    Any and all help will be great for these questions!

    1. If understand it correctly, the answer is no.  If you received an award for 100 posts, then you reach the next award (250), you will only get the 250 award.
    2. Do not know.
    3. I do not see an option to exclude members.

    Hi @Beyonder thank you for your post this will help others know more about our new award system.

    Question 1: Do the members of the forum receive prior awards or not?
    Answer : when you hit an award say you set it to 100 posts you will get that award after the members hit the next award say 200 posts it will change to that icon you have set to 200 posts and the 100 post icon will be removed from the members profile.
    Reason: To save space on the members profile and save loading times on your page.

    Question 2: Is there a preferred size limit for awards? or is it automatically resized for the forum?
    Answer : The size should resize.
    My advice: Make your images about the same size as the system so it don't get pixelated. (The system is set to 50px x 50px)

    Question 3: Can individuals be excluded from awards? (Example: Im a founder and I don't feel that awards should be given to me)
    Answer : No sorry this will give every member on the forum an award.
    Reason: It would make the code much harder to find a number of staff members and then run the system down low and slow your forum down and our servers.

    I hope this helps.

    hello

    you can resize the awards by adding this code to your CSS

    Code:

     div.award {
      height: YOYRNUMBERpx;
      width: YOURNUMBERpx;
    }

    One is in months, and the other is in years.  Are you asking about the setting of the number?

    The one year setting should only give a member who has been a member for one year or more and not any other members until they become a member for one year. Well that's how I understood it.

    Ooooh! I see it now!

    But another question is what is the purposes between

    Number of messages the member liked?

    Vs

    Number of likes received by the member's messages?

    For those reading the thread....

    Number of messages the member liked = one is your likes to a member

    Number of likes received by the member's messages = members who has liked your posts and topic's
