Thankyou

This has corrected the Moderator and Administrator issue but the issue still exists where every user (not admin or moderator) still says they are 'fresh users' instead of the ranks i have created in kunena.

Any ideas?

peetree21, have you assigned all your users there custom ranks?

Also, if you set up custom ranks - set post required count to 0 - and check special rank. If I'm not mistaken you can also assign the rank to an acl group.

Finally if all else fail try the fix above... I did not have to modify anything but what I have explained in my resolution post.

P.S. Might be an issue with kunena 1.0.10 cause I am still using 1.0.9

Peetree,

I found something else... if you are using the default_ex template with custom ranks, you should also upload the custom rank images to the default templates rank folder as well.

this solves the issue of not showing custom rank images when using the default_ex template with custom ranks.

Mahalo,
JBHawaii

Option 1: Replace query
In: cb.simpleboardtab.model.php
On: 105
From:
[code:1]
$query = 'SELECT ' . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_title' )
. ', ' . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_image' )
. "\n FROM " . $_CB_database->NameQuote( '#__' . $forum->prefix . '_ranks' )
. "\n WHERE " . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_id' ) . " = " . ( (int) $userDetails->rank ? (int) $userDetails->rank : 1 )
;
[/code:1]
To:
[code:1]
$query = 'SELECT ' . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_title' )
. ', ' . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_image' )
. "\n FROM " . $_CB_database->NameQuote( '#__' . $forum->prefix . '_ranks' )
. "\n WHERE " . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_min' ) . ' <= ' . (int) $userDetails->posts
. "\n ORDER BY " . $_CB_database->NameQuote( 'rank_min' ) . ' DESC'
;
[/code:1]

thanks that seemed to fix it

The solutions shared so far does not work..

JBHawaii..
- this works only for modified moderator and admin ranking
- this does not work with modified forum ranking for regular members
*all the regular users always get the first rank. e.g. fresh boarder

krileon..
- this works only on modified forum ranking for regular members
- this does not work for modified moderator and admin ranking
*for mods/admin, the rank name will be the rank depending on the number of posts they've made not the custom mod/admin rank name that i created

i may be wrong but i doublechecked it a couple of times with all the solutions given above.. anyone encountered this?

for my case i modifie/customized the rank names for admin to moderator to regular members.

Hello

Are the mentioned fixes also true in fb 1.0.4 + CB1.2.1 + J1.0.15?

i am experiencing only with regular users having "fresh boarder" forum rank all the time after an upgrade from CB1.1

thanks.
