vMulticolor-Stars Mod

[Sarke]

Well I thought they would be grouped just like when postgroup-based stars are off.  The reason I asked was because I modded the code to display secondary groups even when the postgroup-based stars are on, which is really what the mod is supposed to do, right?

That's a feature I'd like to see by default, as well as to set the order in which the stars are displayed.  If you wish I can send you the code of how to do this.

[Valodim]

aaah. I get it. gonna udate it, in a few days.

maybe

[EG]

excellent mod!  thanks!

Just one question, is it possible to disable stars from showing for secondary membergroups ?  Some of my mods have access to a number of boards.. some of which prob ought to be kept secret....  IS there a way to disable these ?

[Valodim]

you can set the groups to have zero stars

[EG]

No I cant

because for those people who have that group as a Primary group, it would mean that they wouldnt have them shwoing.

Some people belong to certain membergroups as Primarymember, and others as secondarymember.

Its those who belong as a secondary member that I dont want them to show for

[Sarke]

Then turn off the mod.  What you're asking for is how it is by default for SMF.

[EG]

again Im not

My members have shown in the info stuff by the side of their posts the Primary membergroup they belong to... but there is no mention at all of the secondary membergroup.... any secondary membergroups they belong to are hidden.  This is how SMF works

Im sorry to cause you so much upset by asking a simple question.

[Tanix]

There is a mod  that shows secondary memberships.

[Valodim]

EG: sorry, that's too specific

[EG]

ok thanks

[manudevil]

Thanks ! It works very well !

Here is a french translation, if anybody needs it. I just added the necessary lines in the code.

I'm trying to install in onto a forum with version 1.1.2. I'm getting the following error:

Type                                     Action                                    Description
1.    Execute Modification    vMulticolorstars11RC1.mod    Modification parse error


The only other modification that I have installed is the Member Awards mod. I've had a look at both mod's files and it doesn't look like they are editing the same files.

I also made sure that the 4 files being edited is writable (even chmod it to 777).

Running out of ideas

Any ideas?

Hey. I recently installed your mod on two almost identical forums (in terms of themes and mods) and an odd thing occured. One one forum (where I had the most mods) it worked perfectly, but on the other, nothing happened. I then tried to uninstall it, but got the error warning:
1.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/Load.php   Test failed
2.   Execute Modification   ./Sources/ModSettings.php   Test failed
3.   Execute Modification   ./Themes/default/languages/ModSettings.english.php   Test failed
4.   Execute Modification   ./Themes/default/languages/Help.english.php   Test failed

My packages (in the one not working) are:
1.   vMulticolor-Stars Mod   0.99
2.   Admin Notepad   1.0
3.   Favicon   1.0
4.   Merge Double Posts   1.0.8

My themes are:
Standard ones, + Dilber Multicolor and Black Rain.

Any idea what is wrong here?.. And is it safe to just delete (not uninstall) the mod and try to install it again?.. Needless to say I'm not that experienced with this.

Edit: Would also be nice to see whether or not this mod is still compatible with 1.1.3 and 1.0.11

[Gantry]

I had been using this mod on a 1.1.2 site, but with the upgrade to 1.1.3, it broke.

I tried this on my test site, smf 1.1.3. It won't install as is. I opened the zip file, and modified package-info.xml with Notepad. What I did was simply copy the sections <install for="1.1.2"> to </install>, and <uninstall for="1.1.2"> to </uninstall>. I put the copy above the <install for="1.1.2"> section. Then I replaced the "1.1.2" with "1.1.3", saved the file, and re-zipped all the files back up.

Now be forewarned, I typically don't recommend people assume this or any other package can simply be editing in this fashion and expected to work! You'll need to know what you're doing, and I certainly don't claim to. I take no resposibility for any problems you might or will have if you do this! I also don't recommend doing this on a live site, please play with things like this on a test site. You can learn a lot by messing with things, but the downside is you can really mess up your forum!

So once your tweaked mod is repackaged, upload the package and install it. The menu options, from what I can tell so far in my testing, work just fine in 1.1.3.  YMMV.

Good job  grat mod thank

[erlend_sh]

Please make it 1.1.3 compatible for non-technical users

[Valodim]

updated

[pipo_il_primero]

OK, I must be very slow, I can't get this mod to work...

I have SMF 1.1.3, installed latest package of the mod with no problem, but I can't seem to find where and how to use this mod!

I want to be able to put my member to up to 5 different groups.

Anybody cares to explain in a couple of paragraphs what I should be doing?

Many thanks

PiP

[skyexile]

any chance this can be updated for V 1.1.4, for dummies?

[skyexile]

ah got it working myself just change the package info.xml file

on the line install for 1.1.3 change it so it says 1.1.4 and your sweet.
