Bug Manually awarding awards problem

[racersimage]

Before I upgraded to the latest version of the awards mod I was able to go into "Manage Awards" through the Admincp and click on one particular award for example and scroll to the "Give out new award" option and when clicked, the award selected would always be the one I went into manage so I could just add the usernames of those I wanted to award it to. Now when I give out new award I have to manually select via the dropdown the award I want to give out because it defaults to one particular award in the dropdown every time.

This is because you can now give the same award to users multiple times. This is not a bug, it's working as intended

I could do that before, got me messed up sometimes haha! What was convenient was being able to choose an award to manage users, and choose give out new award and the award I went to manage was the default selected award at the time. This is like a downgrade now having to select the award from the list when I went to manage that particular award. What's the point in being able to click give out new award within an award management page and that selected award not be the one selected?

I understand going to the main award page that lists every single award and clicking to give out a new award via that page and having to select which one but selecting to manage a particular award and then clicking to give out that award should automatically select the one we went to manage on the give out award page. That was genius...before.

We'll take any UI changes into consideration for future versions

Can you tell me when this adjustment was made. I want to downgrade. It's really dumb to be able to pick an award and click "manage users" and at the bottom of said award user list is a button to give out a new award yet on the following page the awards dropdown is listed in alphabetical order.

When I want to manage users for a particular award and then on that same page listing the users for that award I want to click to hand out that award to new users, the following page should by default, have that award selected so all I have to do is enter the usernames and not once again select that award at every dropdown. That's the most preposterous removal of a feature that I've ever seen.

Once again, this is all I'm asking. I've included pictures.

I don't remember what version it was changed in, probably 2.0 which is when the majority of changes to awards happened. In either case, downgrades are not supported and we won't be able to support outdated versions of the software in case you run into any issues using it.

If you re-post your grievance as a Feature Request, it will be a reminder for us when we're planning out the next feature version of vBActivity
