Let user choose how many reputation points to give (up to their limit).

Not Supported Uses Plugins Template Edits  

This modification gives the user the option to choose how many reputation points to give or take when posting reputation on a post. They cannot give or take more than the number of points they have available.

When giving rep, aside from choosing if they approve or disapprove of the post and entering a comment, there is a dropdown box going from 0 to the number of rep points they have. This allows them to award or take a lower number of points than the default which uses their point value.

There is a check in place to make sure the user didn't alter the form to give or take more than the maximum value they can use. An appropriate error message is displayed.

An important thing to note about this mod is that due to a problem with Internet Explorer not being able to show the select box on top of the page when you have the ajax popups enabled, turning this mod on will override your setting for using ajax for giving reputation. It doesn't turn ajax off for anything else. The user will be taken to the default page that is used when popups are disabled if they are using Internet Explorer.

Installation: To install, unzip the product XML file, and import it to your board using the product manager in the AdminCP found under "Plugins & Products" => "Manage Products" => "Add/Import Product"

There are no templates to edit, they should be done automatically. If there is any problem with the dropdown menu showing up please let me know.

Show support if you use it: Mark This As Installed if you use it on your board. Thanks

Change Log:

Version 1.1.0
  • Dropdown is no longer displayed for users with 0 rep power
  • The default value is no longer 0 and is now the user's reputation power
  • Fix negative reputation problem which could generate an error if the user takes more than half their rep power
  • Ajax popup is now enabled for non Internet Explorer users (IE bug prevents dropdown from showing in Ajax popup)
Version 1.0.0
  • Initial Release

That's just a screenshot of the User Reputation Manager showing it gave 5 points, instead of the 10 it would have. It is found under "User Reputations" => "View Reputation Comments"
All this mod does is add the select box into the existing rep system so the person can choose how many points to give.
To disable that just disable the mod from the product manager and the rep system will function as normal.
The reasoning behind making this was on my board rep affects the ability to use certain programs and gain access to other areas and some users have huge amounts of rep and giving like 20 points for a simple thing to me seemed to defeat the purpose so I encourage them to give an appropriate amount of points based on what they are repping for.

I like a lot the Displayed Form to Introduce the Reputation and the Message, and to be able to choose How Much Reputation Points to Give!!

Works Great in vb3.6.5!!

My Best Regards!!

Right now the mod only supports a dropdown. I was able to switch to a textbox using a Firefox addon that has the option of converting all form <select> boxes into text boxes. It is called Web Developer which can be found here

The reason I go with the drop down is because users may not know their exact rep power or what limitations they would have if there was just a text box to type in.

hmm I don't see any bugs so far. However, for adding features.. mabye something like limiting a number.. or just a fixed number per a forum... Like say you have a offtopic or games area.. you might only want like the min rep used or something.. I'm just throwing ideas..
