File Name: Promote Members by Reputation Points/Likes

File Submitter: Adriano Faria

File Submitted: 25 Feb 2013

File Category: Promotion

Supported Versions: IP.Board 3.4.x

This hook will promote members when they reach the number of reputation points/likes set for each group on Manage Member Groups.

A new tab will be (named Promote) added on Manage Member Groups. There you can choose for which group those users will be promoted and you will type the number of reputation points/likes that each user must gain in order to be promoted.

Compatibility:

• IP.Board 3.4.X
• IP.Board 3.3.X

Nice mod though it show be able to set a secondary group also.

I want members to advance in groups through post count

and through reputation - secondary group so a member would have the best of both groups.

[Adriano Faria]

The idea is to work exacly like default feature from IP.Board: primary group.

[Maxxius]

so you will not be considering that? secondary group involvement I mean.

[Adriano Faria]

Not now... Will think about it.

[Maxxius]

good, at least there is hope :)

Does this work with negative reputation levels?

Honestly, didn't test it. Why use this ? To promote a -100 neg. points a XXX group ?

Hey, Adriano - I just purchased this and it is not working... I uploaded into the root folder and it is not showing into the "Applications Not Installed". Can you check if you included everything needed into the zip file? Thanks.

Edit: Never mind - it is a hook not an app. You should update the installation instructions. It seems to work as intended.

This plugin isn't quite working. It seems to be also including secondary groups when deciding to promote users. So let's say I have three levels of users A > B > C that promote in this order. A requires a min of 0 rep, B requires 500 rep, and C requires 1000 rep..

If C happens to have A as a secondary group C will be *switched* to B even though it already has enough reputation to remain at C. Also it doesn't seem as though the second level of promotion even works. If A is promoted to B that's where it ends.. the B to C never happens.

[Adriano Faria]

It doesn't check secondary groups. It works exacly like reputation thingy (by posts) from IP.Board:

            if ( $user['g_promotion_reps'] != '' )
            {
                list( $gid, $reps ) = explode( '&', $user['g_promotion_reps'] );
                        
                if ( $gid > 0 and $reps > 0 )
                {
                    if ( $user['pp_reputation_points'] >= $reps )
                    {
                        IPSMember::save( $member_id, array( 'core' => array( 'member_group_id' => $gid ) ) );
                    }
                }
            }

It creates a new column on groups table and compare everytime a like/positive reputation point is given, it checks with that column to change the member_group_id.

will this work with the post system so will it work side by side say a group to be promoted once he has 50 post and 50 rep will it work like that

[Adriano Faria]

Yes, it will work, since they are different stuff. I just don't think it's a good thing to do. You can mess things. Example: you set Group X to 50 posts and Group Y to 100 posts. But if you set 100 likes to Group X, user will come back to Group X.... And when he posts again, will go to Group Y again. Next reputation point, Group X.

The ideal is user one OR another.

[wmarcy]

Adriano, I need this to check both post count and like count. If post_count => 500 & like_count => 500 promote to next level kind of thing.

Doable?

My previous post gives an idea.

[wmarcy]

So there is no way to add a conditional AND into the equation?

[Greenie]

Is it possible to promote user by xx posts and xx reps?

[Greenie]

Yes but like this lets say this is what i really want to do:
I have rank Newbie and rank Member now
I put on newbie 25 posts to promote to member
And i put on your hook 50 rep to promote newbie to member

So it will work then to promote newbie to member on 25 posts and 50 reps or it will promote it directly when it hits 25 posts? :S

[Adriano Faria]

Nope... one thing works regardless the other. So if you use 25 POSTS to go from newbie to members and 50 LIKES from members to something else, it will work... UNLESS you allow newbie to receive reputation and the user got 50 likes before 25 posts... that's what I say that can confuse you... in this case, he'll go from newbie to something else, skipping MEMBERS. Do you understand ?

[Greenie]

Umm yes.. And there is no possible way getting re-coded app to support both post and reputation?

[Adriano Faria]

There's no way I can control the default feature.

[Greenie]

if ( $user['pp_reputation_points'] >= $reps )
                    {
                        IPSMember::save( $member_id, array( 'core' => array( 'member_group_id' => $gid ) ) );

to something like

if ( $user['pp_reputation_points'] >= $reps && $user['pp_posts'] >= $posts )
                    {
                        IPSMember::save( $member_id, array( 'core' => array( 'member_group_id' => $gid ) ) );

this is not correct for sure $user['pp_posts'] idk how is it managed in ipb :smile:

And users could just ignore default feature or remove it or edit it idk ?

Hi Adriano,

 

I cannot make this thing working.

Users are not promoted to the new group, even if all set.

Can you support?

 

BR,

Tom

 

[Adriano Faria]
