I would definitively buy this if it has a vbulletin importer. Or even 3 licenses to support the development.

I do not use vb for quite some time now. Anyway, I can write an importer for you to import the vb reputations for an extra fee.

Anyone else having trouble with Nodes as Tabs when using this? I find that when I save a node and enable it to display as a tab it doesn't save the selection. As soon as I disable this it works fine.

@borbole, any chance you can figure out a way to allow us to set a user's reputation to a negative value? It's a little annoying that if I edit a member who has negative reputation it automatically resets to zero.

I just want to say that I love how many features this addon has however I really like the way it is done in IPB and since this is by far the best reputation system addon for XenForo I was hoping that it could be modified to support a simple +/- system.

It would be relatively simple to add as an option for this addon and add even more value for customers.

Basically, on the right side of the foot of every post is a + and - sign and a box that shows the reputation of that current post.



Clicking or hovering over the box displays the usernames of all the members that gave rep to that post and whether it was positive or negative.




Lastly, every user's postbit has a reputation bar displaying their current rep level.





Please let me know if this can be added.

It is a simple + and - system so perhaps it can be done as a different addon.

Indeed. As this goes a little outside the scope of this mod.

I've been running into the following error. Any suggestions?

The reputation system (a previous version of it) did install fine before. I've had it removed for a while and have since installed other add-ons. Could it be clashing with something else now?

This add-on seems to conflict with the NodesAsTabs add-on. When I have it enabled, I can't make any changes within the NodesAsTabs settings. If I disable the reputation add-on, everything is fine. Likewise, if I disable it, make changes to NodesAsTabs, and re-enable it, everything is okay.

That error (Temporary file write failure) might happen due to several reasons other than a full disk like wrong permissions etc. Would you mind to give me temp admin&ftp access to check it out for myself?

The thing is that mods are written to be compatible with a vanilla version of xenforo, i.e. out of box and not compatible with other third party mods, styles etc.

That being said, I can have a look at this for you for a fee.

All due respect, but what you're saying is simply not true. I understand incompatibilities between mods but saying that all mods can only be compatible in a vanilla state isn't reasonable, especially with the #2 most popular resource. I have a workaround so I'm all set.

That is true. All coders here and elsewhere when they code a mod they do it to be compatible with the out of box software that they code for. That is the rule. But you do not have to take my word for it. Go and ask other coders and see what they will have to say.

While developers indeed create their addons for the vanilla install, but when a conflict is discovered developers generally seek to find the bug and fix it as part of their support. It is of course your choice to offer such support or not.

XenForo is still relatively new software and a lot of essential functionality can only be added through addons. This means that many of us will install a lot of addons to get a full suite of functionality. Addon conflicts are a frequent reality. If you are intending to say that your addon should only be used on a vanilla install then you are ruling out 99% of your customers.

This is exactly what I mean. As I said, I understand that you can't pre-test every permutation of every install, but you also can't expect all of your customers to use them in a vacuum. Especially for a paid add-on, I don't really expect to be paying again just so it doesn't break another one of the most popular product addons. It's certainly up to you, but it's not the most customer friendly way to be.

Not four posts above mine there's another customer with the exact same problem.

I'm not speaking from a point of ignorance here, I work for an electronics/software company, so we support a lot of different environments. I understand there's a time cost associated with it. And I'm not trying to lecture, just provide my perspective.

I provide the support to make my mods compatible with other mods but I am charging for it as it involves extra work and time.

I respect your perceptive and opinion on the matter. But I have another perceptive/opinion. Maybe you or others can afford to spend extra time to work for free on something that falls outside the support scope of your products but I can not afford to spend my time for free.

 

[Alpha1]

Which addon is causing the conflict? Is the bug in this addon or in nodes as tabs?
How much do you charge for fixing this bug?

In regards to a vbulletin importer. Maybe some of us can poll together? @dutchbb

 

[XxUnkn0wnxX]

ok this version seems to be working for me with no issues yet..

there are two things which confuse me though:

what do those two options mean?

as for Daily rep i know what it means but how does it act with the other setting below it?

They are both self explanatory. What it is that is confusing you?

well what is it meant by user spread limit?

say me the administrator gives rep to a user post who is in the user group registered do i have to wait till 200+ admins give rep to that user before i can give rep again? or do i wait till 200+ other registered users give rep to that user before i can give rep again?

its confusing..

It means that after you rep a member of that group then you will have to rep x other members before you rep the same member twice. Just like it says at the mod description. Better than this I can not explain it.
