VBA Pro

That's the idea

Updated a few minutes ago, after reverting all the templates I few questions.

I noticed the postbit,(see attached). The text (which you cant see) at the top the border box is not using the sites stylevar colors (set to grey) in this case, also is the border still hard coded into a template or did I miss a stylevar?

Also on the activity page, in the points column, its displaying the numerical value down to the hundredth zillion, is that working as intended? (see attached 2)

MySQL can mess with certain number values when working with decimals, I believe when I discussed this earlier with Fillip H. we agreed the best option was to change field types to Double so MySQL doesn't choke on decimals. This was implemented, but any values already messed may have been maintained. I'd suggest running the rebuild within vBActivity, should correct the decimals

Under the VBA maintenance window I ran the recalculate points, achievements and promotions and nothing changed. I however did not see a "rebuild" where is that located?

Also the activity % calculations, (see attached) I'm on the site every day.. its currently showing me as 0% daily, 93% weekly and 0% monthly, and then at the bottom it's showing someone that hasn't even been on the site at all for over a month as 147% daily, 25% weekly and 5.71% monthly....

The odd activity thing will be due to the recalc =)

 

[Volion]

I understand a recalculation changing the values but how is coming up with those numbers, should not someone that has not been on the site also be reset , rather then having more activity then those who are active?

My thought, though Fillip H. will have to confirm, is that because you guys *are* active, all of your points are already in the correct place in the database etc (in the week column in this case). On the other hand the other guy not being active this week, has all of his unaccounted for activity shoved into the daily (which weekly and monthly seem to be extrapolating from)

Fillip H. will have to confirm, but that seems like the most likely case to me.

 

[Fillip H.]

I'm not entirely sure what Cosmic is trying to say here xD

It's possible that the weekly points storage hasn't reset properly - can you run this query:

SELECT dbtech_vbactivity_pointscache_week FROM user WHERE userid = 1

Remember to add your table prefix if you use it, and replace 1 with the userid of the inactive user.

I'll check that, also this issue is not fixed forme, there is only one XML file now and in the products page it says pro, so I dont see how uploading pro is going to fix it.

[Fillip H.]

If you delete any downloaded zip, then download it again from your member's area, re-upload all files and re-import the product XML file, it will be fixed.

I ended up having to remove and re-install the product to fix it, still have style issues for the table description text color both in (see attached) and as mentioned before above in the postbit, I have set a hex color in your CSS { fieldset yet it seem to have zero effect on either, do I need to go into every template and hard code these?

Also, everyone that has checked out the activity mod on the site is really confused about the %, why do any of them even go past 100%, by definition 100% is recognized as max effort, I currently have 8922.39% , how would anyone even begin to figure out where that is comparable to others? And the fact that the achievements only show all of the last achieved, rather then the highest achieved in each category in the postbit is also a concern of theirs. Is there ever going to be a way to set and change the way these two features display or it this pretty much set as is?

There's only these templates; dbtech_vbactivity_postbit, dbtech_vbactivity_postbit_medals, dbtech_vbactivity_memberinfo_achievementsbit, dbtech_vbactivity_leaderboards_leaderboardbit.

I don't know why some skins fail to properly set the colour, but I'll change the display method for v2 so this should no longer be an issue.

We go past 100% to show just how active people are, the 100% is "average forum member" not "max possible attainable activity".

Try setting your Minimum Points higher (Activity Stats option group).

Any idea when v2 will be out? I'm already pulling my hair out and may just uninstall it until then.

End of the month most likely
