Create A Forum - Support Forums

Plugin installation won't happen since it would affect all boards that are hosted here. We have developed some of the popluar adddons and they are apart of Create A Forum

Could be but I would have to build my own awards system.

This is the awards system i want: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=475 you could install this on the servers as an option, people just dont give out awards, i think it will work very well in all forums and people will love it.

As Createaforum said, he would have to make one himself and it has to work on smf 2.0
There are few alternatives such as setting custom profile fields where only admins can edit or you can use codes to have an award system.

how could we do that?

To make an awards system:

Admin>CP>Features and Options>Profile Fields.
From here, add a new field for user awards, check "Show on topic view", and make the placement "With Icons".
Input Settings: Text
Max length: (any number you want so long as you can do what you want with it.)
Check "Allow BBC?"

Make it so that users can see, but only admins (or owner) can modify the field.

---

You can then give users awards in the form of images by adding the images in  the BBC image tags under that users Profile>Forum profile.

I looked at that mod and i'm not quite sure what banners you're talking about? Anyhow, like I already stated, we probably won't have a modification like that available to us unless CAF creates it, as he likes to be the one who creates the addons used here.

Plugins can't be installed.
