Change reputation 'gem' levels
Mod Version: 1.01, by boozehound

Change the amount of reputation needed to acquire each reputation 'gem' (as displayed in the postbit) and the type of gem displayed for each level (bright or normal).

Adding this hack will add a new option in admincp, called 'Reputation Level Manager'. In this page you can:

• Change the amount reputation needed to acquire each gem
• Change the type of gem displayed per level (either bright or normal)
• Add new levels
• Delete levels

Note that these 'gems' are separate from the normal 'reputation levels' which govern the description shown when you mouseover the gems in the postbit.

The levels are shown for positive values only; negative reputations are simply a mirror image of the positive reputation levels, and the same rules apply regarding the type of gem displayed and the amount of reputation need (albeit, negative).

Further note that to install this hack requires the ability to run SQL queries, as this hack adds an additional table.

Fully tested on 3.0.3, 3.0.4, 3.0.5 and 3.0.6.

Update 1.01 20th Feb 2005

- Settings are now cached, so this hack incurs a cost of only one query per page (for pages that show reputation levels, e.g. threads)
- Installer included
