User titles

[DaveL]

I feel like whacking my head against the wall several times! Ive just spent ages typing into Xenforo 140 custom user titles, but I misread and infact typed in 140 trophy titles. I thought it said "Minimum Posts" and not "Miniumum Points"

My question now is... Does Xenfor have user titles based on posts? If so, where can I find the setting in the ACP?

The user title ladder is linked to trophies.

One of the criteria for a trophy is the number of posts.

I cant quite work out how im going to do it though.

I have 140 user titles ranging from 1 post upto 19000 posts. The gap between the number of posts isnt the same all the way up the ladder.

On most other forum software, you just enter the title and the amount of posts. Xenforo seems to be going around the block in this area.

Just create the trophy user titles as required.

Then create the corresponding trophies to award the points.

Ive already created all the trophy user titles.

So I now need to go and add all 140 to the actual trophies list now? That really does seem a bit backward, as its double to work and I lose the option of using the trophies system for anything else!

Trophies are linked to user titles, that's what they're for.
However they aren't intended to be used as strictly as you plan to use them.

It's much more flexible than awarding user titles based on post count alone.

In 1.1 the criteria are expanded even further.

Ive just posted a thread in the suggestions area asking if possible for user titles tobe seperate from trophies.

I love the trophy idea and want to use it for members logging in, liking posts etc plus what ever new features will be added - But if I use the current system for user titles, that would be out of the question. Really does seem like a bit of a step backward. I thought user titles based on post count was quite a basic feature.

Im just a bit pee'd off that ive spent over an hour typing in my user titles only to find I cant use them now.
