Re: Ranks w/ stars ?
There is a french guy who coded something like that.
Go to to PunBB.fr to see the code,
and to CtrlAltSuppr.com to view the demo.

Re: Ranks w/ stars ?
I talked with the mod creator (Ju) very nice person!
and he told me what to do..
this is the mod:
open "viewtopic.php"
find:
$post_count++;
$user_avatar = '';
$user_info = array();
$user_contacts = array();
$post_actions = array();
$is_online = '';
$signature = '';
// If the poster is a registered user.
if ($cur_post['poster_id'] > 1)
{after add:
$rank_pips = "";
if($cur_post['num_posts'] > 5000) { $num_pips = 10; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 3000) { $num_pips = 9; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 2000) { $num_pips = 8; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 1000) { $num_pips = 7; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 500) { $num_pips = 6; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 300) { $num_pips = 5; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 100) { $num_pips = 4; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 50) { $num_pips = 3; }
elseif($cur_post['num_posts'] > 10) { $num_pips = 2; }
else { $num_pips = 1; }
for($pip=0; $pip<$num_pips; $pip++) {
$rank_pips .= '<img src="img/pip.gif" alt="" />';
}Find:
<dl>
<dt><strong><?php echo $username ?></strong></dt>
<dd class="usertitle"><strong><?php echo $user_title ?></strong></dd>After, add :
<?php echo "<dd class=\"usertitle\">".$rank_pips."</dd>\n"; ?>Save viewtopic.php and upload (overwrite)
I didn't creat this mod... all the credit goes to "Ju" !

The last step needs changed to
<?php echo "<dd class=\"usertitle\">".$rank_pips."</dd>\n"; ?>else it gives a parse error.

Re: Ranks w/ stars ?
I did when I used the one from punres because the double quotes weren't escaped.

Ok, good to know then. When I tested it, ie wasn't showing this character, but could be caused by the OS.
I've Installed this little mod, and seems there is some kind of problem with the rank of guests. They were getting more rank than the members. I didn't know how to solve this, so I moved the rank bar to the bottom of the user info, together with post count, and this way the rank is not being displayed for guests. ^^
Re: Ranks w/ stars ?
Hello. I had the same problem, but now everything is working OK. Thank you.
What if... im the admin and i decide to give all the stars to mods and admins without the need to the post counter?.
thank you in advance.

I've made some pips you may use. You can download the files here:

This is what you're getting (separate of course):
Re: Ranks w/ stars ?
if you wana update your ranks, you have to update it in the options and than change the code, maybe there should be a way to rank set up thats in the database, like adding an option like how many pips do you to show with each rank

IMHO should be more like this :
$postct_split = array(10,50,100,300,500,1000,2000,3000,5000);
$pip_img = '<img src="img/pip.gif" alt="" />';
$rank_pips = $pip_img;
foreach($postct_split as $stars) {
if($cur_post['num_posts'] > $stars) { $rank_pips .= $pip_img;}
}Saves 9 lines of code
