PopMeter adds a popularity bar to members posts and profile.

On the popularity bar other members can express their opinion on the member.

In PopMeter.pl, near the top you can set the bar-width and the minimum number of minutes between two "opinions" from the same IP.

Carsten you are the man... thanks. Worked fine for me and I liked how people can't vote for themselves.

One question... I looked at the popmeter.pl file and saw the number set for how the amount of time in which people can do this from the same IP being set at 60. What is 60 exactly? minutes or seconds? Something else?

This is a nice substitute for the Karma mod that someone was asking for somewhere...

... not that I'd use it on my board.  No disrespect intended.  If you start playing favorites, someone is going to become upset, and either leave, or take drastic retributive actions.

Let's not forget also, although it is not possible for you to vote for yourself, it opens the doors to all sorts of alternate accounts by the same people... to be used only once and then abandoned.

I'm sure it has a place... but the admin of the board should weigh the pros with the cons before installing it.  It may work structurally, but it can bring about some unexpected, undesireable side-effects.

@mrdale96 - minutes - as it says in the comment in the code, and in the description in the mod-file, and in the description in "Installed Mods" in admin center, and in the error message...  Wink

Yep - goes for about every mod i guess - that's the beauty of mods - take it if you want it. or leave it if you don't  Wink

the last step does not work if the skype mod is installed, because of the word "skype" in the long line.

I have installed it manually and it works perfect.

Yep Karl - i know. It's a problem for every mod that will add stuff to members vars file. Guess i'll go find my slapping fish and slap my good old Dutch mod-friend Ron for modding the member array instead of 'pushing' the skype element in  Grin

Great mod, been looking for a thing like this for weeks Smiley

Would it be possible to add  the option to look back at who gave you a pop point ?

My members are happy  Thumbs Upsup:
