@Nicolas

Sure.. here you go - notice that there are two different sizes of the progress bar:

[Nicolas]

What browser and OS do you use?

[whitts]

@Nicolas the screenshot is from the latest chrome on win 7. I will try it in IE as well.. From the looks of it, it looks like the long usernames are causing it.

[whitts]

Just checked IE - looks fine in IE.

Bug found

If you upvote and downvote the same comment a few times, everytime you upvote you give the person 2 points.

It's matter of time, while someone will find a way how to abuse the system.
It's a cumulative system. That is why it's simple and robust.
In the same way you can abuse by writing many trash messages, or creating topics.
I would like to omit functional in the plugin, where points could be subtracted.
From the other hand, I would like to have something to prevent so easy abuse.

For now i have just adjusted the header font:

.page-points .container .points-user-name
{
  font-size:1.0em;
}

This seems to make the headers short enough that the porgress bar doesnt get cut off, only problem is that the user avatar now looks way to big but i can live with that.

[Nicolas]

@whitts by design, long usernames should be truncated.
It worked well before, especially in latest Chrome.

Hi, I really like this plugin but I am a total noob when it comes to coding. Can anyone help me with an idiot's guide to implement this plugin ?
I am using NodeBB v1.0.0 with the persona theme.

[Nicolas]

At current phase, a few plugins are compatible with v1.0.

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

@Nicolas I read the instructions to integrate the plugin but it was all Greek to me. I am using the Persona theme, are there any step by step instruction to get the plugin to work and display points ?

[Nicolas]

If we talk about v1.0 NodeBB. In order to have workable solution, I have to update plugin. As for step-by-step, I will try to provide more simple step-by-step guide as part of plugin's documentation.

How? - I have to check breaking changes and accommodate them with next update.
When? - I'm going to do it at weekends (5-6 March)

Actually I have waited for major release of NodeBB, so I need solve compatibility only once in a while

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

@Nicolas Thank you for the prompt response. Also let me know if you do custom development, but not at completely un-affordable and unsustainable costing, lol. I also think that as community members we can arrange for Nicolas's coffee/beer if he can finish up hi TODO list real quick.

Version 3.0.1

It's a security update.
Also, plugin awaits for the major update.

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

Not compatible with V1.0.2 ?

[singhnsk]

@Nicolas is the plugin already updated to be compatible with NodeBB 1.1.x? If yes, I'd love to go ahead and implement it Thanks!

[UncleSam]

@singhnsk I updated my forum to v1.1.2 few hours ago and have not had any problems with nodebb-plugin-ns-points yet .

[Nicolas]

@singhnsk minor 1.X.0 or patch 1.0.X versions should break anything. So it should work well without any extra actions.

[Nicolas]

Version 4.0.0

New version is available. Summary: ACP part is added.

• Fully functional ACP panel with an ability to change different settings: weight for actions, base values for computation, general settings
• Compatibility with v1.x.x forum

Screenshots will be added later.
