[Deaks]

[TheListener]

How would a user add this to the Ultimate profile mod?

[Deaks]

no idea

[TheListener]

no idea

(must stop edits in the early hours).

I meant the section of code I would need to add this to the Ultimate Profile mod.

[Deaks]

my answer remains ... I have never used that mod, never looked at the coding, id assume that it be the same but search the mods new files for what it changes

[TheListener]

Am looking into it now.

[Deaks]

let me know what you find

[technical4u28]

try to check the mod version

[Deaks]

technical4u28: do you use the ultimate profile mod along with this one? if so how did you get around it.

Have a look at Masterds mod which does the same thing.



Masterd hasn't been about since December 2012.

Really?

I took over this mod so I could incorporate it into my other mod that is similar:

In the images folder, what is this mod call because I am looking at 1)star.gif 2)starmod. gif 3)staradmin.gif 4)star.gif and they are all those default colored blocks when I open click the image.

Thanks in advance.

This mod adds no images to your forum. It adds the star images as set for the membergroups as defined in your admin center.

This mod adds no images to your forum. It adds the star images as set for the membergroups as defined in your admin center.

So where exactly is the "starstoprofile" folder supposed to be located in the ftp (I am using a custom theme) just in the dafault folder?
And in the space next to {theme URL}/images/, do I remove "star.gif"? Im not 100% clear on how this works.

[CheeseHead05]

In my ftp, the starstoprofile zip file is not opening/extracting.

[Deaks]

cheesehead05 ... go to Admin - Package Manager - Download Packages

here you will see Upload a Package click on browse and find the .zip of the mod that is on your computer then click upload

cheesehead05 ... go to Admin - Package Manager - Download Packages

here you will see Upload a Package click on browse and find the .zip of the mod that is on your computer then click upload

I have done that and it is listed as the current version in the Browse Package area but in the FTP, I cant extract it into my custom theme under images. Then I extracted it on my computer but there is no image files.

this mod does not add images, it makes the stars or badge that has been defined before show up in your profile, all it does it alter some code.

For example when you visit my profile:

www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=profile;u=23577

Where my name is you see

Runic
Project Manager


If we installed this mod here you would see

Runic

Project Manager

It uses the star or image that is aready there.

[CheeseHead05]

okay. So what do I type in the blank space after I remove star.gif? And Im now assuming that the zip file doesnt have to be in a specific folder right because as long as it is running as current version with the green dot, it should work regardless of where the file is in the ftp?

[CheeseHead05]

Hello?

After I remove 'stars.gif' from the space, what do I replace it with so that the stars will show??
