Asgaros Forum v1.15: Ranks & myCRED Integration
Quote from Asgaros on August 17, 2019, 3:02 pmI am happy to announce version 1.15 of the Asgaros Forum plugin for WordPress which brings great new additions to your favorite forum-plugin.
Ranks
The new Ranks feature is a great new way to visually promote the most active users of your community. It adds a new star-indicator system to posts and profiles which is based on the amount of posts a user has. The required posts for all five available levels are fully customizable by new settings accessible via the administration area.
myCRED Integration
Are you looking for a more advanced ranking-system which gives you more control about how ranks are calculated? Then I have good news for you! While other forum-systems let you pay much money for it, Asgaros Forum comes with a full integration of the popular myCRED Points Management System for free including the following features:
- Create Badges & Ranks based on the amount of posts, topics, likes and dislikes
- Show Points, Badges & Ranks in posts and profiles
- Give Points & Penalties based on created/deleted posts & topics as well as received likes & dislikes
Additional Changes
- Added a new option to change the login URL
- Added a new option to change the register URL
- Added asgarosforum_profile_row action
- Added asgarosforum_after_add_reaction action
- Added asgarosforum_after_remove_reaction action
- Added asgarosforum_after_update_reaction action
- Fixed missing users in suggestions if their display name contains special characters
- Fixed missing users in suggestions if their display name is not equal to their unique name
- Prevent that users react to their own posts
- Fixed display issues with some themes
- Updated Font Awesome to version 5.10.1
- Additional performance improvements and code optimizations
Version 1.15 of Asgaros Forum is now available via the WordPress Updater!

If you then again click on dislike, undoing it, then the reputation of the unit is not added. Dislik cancelled, and the reputation of -1. If you then put like, reputation becomes zero, and should be +1.

This behavior is currently by purpose. Imagine the following:
- A user write bad things so you give him a dislike. In this case he lose points.
- Now he edits his post so it is fine again and you give him a like. Now he get some points for it but because he did something bad in the past, this behavior is still included.
You can also think of it as the following:
- User A is doing something good
- User B is doing something bad and good
In this case User A should have a better record because User B has something bad in his history.
