So automation works for you? Does it send a PM to members indicating they have got the awards?

if you're on 4.2.0 you'll have the manually add the tabs using the Navigation Manager. This mod, like many others hasn't been updated for the navtab changes.

If I messed up anything or there's a bug I didn't catch please let me know and I'll see about fixing it.

EDIT: Re-added the upload with correct XML.
This is great. Thanks for making these fixes and compiling them into a new version!

I have several years of awards in my live site's database, which is vBulletin 3.8.7. I'm currently testing an upgrade to 4.2.1 on a dev site. Unfortunately, I uninstalled my old version of YAAS after the upgrade, which dropped my awards tables.

Can I simply export them from my 3.8.7 db and import them into my 4.2.1 database? Or am I asking for trouble?

::

If I don't uninstall my old YAAS and it's corresponding awards tables during my upgrade to 4.2.1, but simply install this newer version over it after the upgrade, will all of my awards still be there. I mean, are the database tables different between the older version of YAAS and this newer version?

The answers appear to be yes and yes.

Sorry for mucking up the thread.

How do you remove an award already given to a user? There is no option for it. A user was accidentally given an incorrect award and there is no way to remove it.

The Give Award to User selection allows removal of awards as well.

It isn't a new plugin, is bug fixes for this plugin. I also couldn't release that as my own plugin even if I wanted to since it isn't mine.

Ok let me see if I can explain what is happening here.

I have two issues not big but kind of weird.

If you add the full link (absolute url) to the "Award Image URL" field when adding a new award instead of just the short (relative url) "images/medals/1_month.jpg" version of the url when going to the Award Manager page the awards do not show up in the Award column.



The awards how ever do show up in the Awards page on my forums. If I do use the absolute url the award will show up in the Award Manager page in my backend but when a new thread is posted I get this where I only see the bb code instead of the award.



When I right click to view the image in the Award Manager I get a 403 page not found but the link looks like this

https://www.cagclan.com/community/ht...als/1month.png

Is there a way to allow absolute urls so that the Award shows up in the Award Manager?

Seems like some parts assume relative URLs (like ACP/MCP) where the forum path would have to be included (since a relative URL in those areas wouldn't work well), while the Request Award output assumes it is absolute.

I also noticed something looking at a few of the templates for this...most of them still look like they're using the vB3 syntax, instead of the vB4 syntax. While this does work, is it really a good idea?

It is working fine for me besides these 2 little issues. No other problems , I was looking through the awards.php to see if I could fix this but I see nothing so far.

I don't see anything in the code that would cause absolute urls to fail. The default medals use absolute url and they display without a problem. As for relative urls not working, its because the [img] tag does not handle relative urls.
