. . . after a certain amount of posts.
I'd like to know if anybody has or knows of the code that I can use so that when a member reaches a certain number of posts they can add an avatar. And also, if they reach a certain number of posts they can change their own Title.
I'm sure it has something to do with if mlev = but I have NO idea where the code would go. I was thinking maybe "inc_profile.asp", but am not really sure.
TIA |

| Not mlev, you're looking for the postcount variable (whatever that happens to be). Editting titles would be a bit harder, but reaching a certain postcount before displaying an avatar should be a lot simpler. |

I figured it would be mlev because you set those variables under Ranking Configuration. Therefore, when you reached a certain mlev, then you could make the changes. I have mlev 5 at 3K posts, at that point, I would like members to be able to change their own title w/o having to ask me.
To get an avatar, I would like that set to 50 posts, or mlev 1 on my site.
EDIT - I think the code would have to be in the "pop_profile.asp". I'm thinking a new field would have to be added to db so that it showed up after a certain mlev.  Although, I have noticed that only Administrators can Modify User Profile, so . . . |

| mlev determines whether the user is an admin, moderator, normal user, or author of the post. mlev isn't associated with the post count afaik. |

Rank Level then?
What's the "mlev" for Rank?
EDIT - I didn't ask that correctly, what's the variable for Rank, is it [colde]intRankLevel =[/code]
I'd have a statement like:
if intRankLevel = >0 <- This would be for an avatar
if intRankLevle = 5 <- This would be to change title |

How about this?
if M_POSTS > 3000 then
Response.Write "blah, blah, blah" <- Don't know this part.
And would go in "pop_profile.asp" |

Okay, here goes . . .
if M_POSTS > "3000" then
Response.Write " <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td bgColor=""" & strPopUpTableColor & """ align=""right"" nowrap><b><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>Custom Title:</font></b></td>" & vbNewLine & _
This is where I'm stuck. I'm thinking that this code will show "Custom Title:" underneith "User Name" in "pop_profile.asp". I'm also thinking it will have to go after "goEdit" somewhere. Just exactly where I don't know, and I don't know enough to get it to show the box that I want to input the text for a Custom Title and how to get it to write to "M_TITLE" in the "FORUM_MEMBERS" table. I'm also thinking I would have to add some sort of "if" statement in fron of the Avatar Section so that it won't even show that until "if M_POSTS > 50 then". I can worry about that after I (with some help) figure out the Custom Title part.
Again, thanks for at least looking and even bigger thanks for helping. |

I'd probably do it a different way : don't change pop_profile at all. Let them choose their avatar straight away, THEN when they hit the magic postcount number the avatar shows up immediately. Purely from memory, there are 2 places to alter topic.asp.
Actually, your changes to pop_profile could easily work for both avatar selection & title editting. |

See this topic on how to allow users to assign their own titles. You could do something similar for the avatars.

| I added your code from the other thread, but it's not showing where a user w/ RankLevel5 (3000 posts) can change their title. It should show up in "pop_profile.asp" correct? They should be able to change it when the clikc on "Profile"? |
