post based groups based on karma

[Shadow's Pawn]

Hey all.

I'm dinking around in load.php, trying to make the post based groups based on karma total instead.  Has anyone tried to do something like this?

try this:

Search for:

Code Select Expand


/* create the memberinfo and memberstars entries */
   if ($userprofile[$user]['posts'] > $GodPostNum)


replace with this:

Code Select Expand


/* create the memberinfo and memberstars entries */
   if (($userprofile[$user]['karmaGood'] - $userprofile[$user]['karmaBad']) > $GodPostNum)


Do this for each membergroup.
This assumes that you have changed your 'post numbers' to the amount of Karma you want instead.  Otherwise simply replace $GodPostNum with the number you want.

Yeah, that's exactly what I did.. and it works!  The only problem is that now there is an error when I try to modify profiles.  I did this thing last night and didn't bother to mess with it further, but I'm going to go digging in profile.php now.  There is probably a couple things I need to change.

Nevermind.. apparently the error is due to a misconfiguration of my own computer, since this only happens on my test board (a clean install) and not once I upload the changed Load.php.

what is karma can do I saw this option..but didn;t use..because don;t know what is it..T_T

I added more groups and made the amount of karma for these groups changeable in modsettings..  I increased it to ten different titles based on karma.

Now.. I'm trying to make it so people with higher karma can effect other people's karma more greatly.  I can't seem to get it to work properly.  I have it coded so someone with karma over 50 should give or take 2 points every time they modify someone's karma..  but it still remains at 1.

Any ideas?

Hrm.. I think I know what the problem is.  Looks like I messed up.  I have to test it to make sure it is doing this, but I suspect if the target has karma over 50, then his/her karma will be modified by 2 points whenever anyone applauds or smites them.

Oops.
