A new version is now available for download.

If you are upgrading from the previous version, all you need to do is reinstall the Hook XML. Please let me know if this resolves the issue.

Pics? Demo?




My site isn't up and running yet (we're in the process of re-doing it), so I don't have a demo available. I'll try to get some pics together over the next day or so.

yeah it works now, but i dont think i will be using this yet, for 2 reasons.

1. doesnt parse bbcode in the posts.
2. there is no link to the post in the forums, i have to go and find that post myself if i want to reply to it.

also im sure there is a hook point for the button to mark as post of the week, that will remove your skin edit ;)

good work, keep it up, great to see a new modder for IPB :)

I can definitely take care of your 2 points. I'll try to get to it at some point this week, and I'll post here when a new version is available, so watch this topic. ;)

I have been looking at a possible hook point like you suggested, still in progress.

Is it possible to change from post of the week to post of the month?



Sure. You can modify the following language strings:
forums_public_boards - post_of_week
forums_public_forums - post_of_week
forums_public_mod - cp_pick_postofweek, cp_unpick_postofweek
forums_public_topic - cpt_pick_postofweek, cpt_unpick_postofweek


Wonder if you could add "show the picture or avatar of the member" behind the post ?



I'll add this to my enhancement list. Watch this topic for updates.

a month :)

Another thing will be great as well is anything in post itself. Some small icon to identify the best post in topic view.

Or you may know if any hook exists for that purpose ?

cheers

I'm confused... why are you trying to uninstall the hook settings instead of the actual hook?

Also, can you please tell me exactly where you are getting the DB error and what the error is? I installed the hook on a brand new environment, and I'm not getting any errors at all during installation. Thanks.

Thank you for reply!

ok.
Here is my sad story

First I tried to update the existing version to the one you provided. After installation of hook (system>manage hooks>install new) I was getting the database message i described above....but even after that message seems like hook was installing itself becase after when I checked the hook properties it was giving me the display avatar option and i could see the new version id...But nothing reflects to my board (not showing on the side bar and nothing globaly)

Then I decided to unistall the hook...and to install the brand new version...wich was't gave me anny luck(still no reflect to SB) ..but the error message from database disapeared.

later I tried to put old version back again...but now I could not use it even....when I'm marking the post as best of the week...nothing appears on side bar and globaly. ((

Finaly I desided to uninstall the hook. Managed to unistall it from system>manage hooks>..Removed the file from folder by ftp...but can't remove the settings for hook...getting message #You cannot remove this setting group as it still contains active settings. Please remove the settings inside it first.#

I got really excited when I saw the title, I thought it was a mod similar to one I used to use over at VB which my members loved, but sadly it isnt :(

Topic Of The Week/Month is based on a simple nomination system. Throughout the selected forums, members with adequate permissions can nominate their favorite topic by clicking on the award nomination button below the post.



The five topics with the most votes during the course of the week/month are automatically displayed on a nomination thread including a poll feature. At the end of the week/month, the first three topics with the most votes are the award winners of the contest.

How to remove post of the week from forums? thnak you :)



post-191452-0-10260200-1291371183_thumb.

Well, there are 2 ways:
1. You can go to the topic, select the post, and then from the moderation options choose "Unmark as Post of the Week"
2. If you want to turn the mod off completely, go to the ACP System Settings and set the number of posts to show as 0
