Question jAwards Plugin

I'd like to turn the old jAwards Hack into a full plugin that displays the users awards beneath their Avatar or beneath their signature, but I'm a bit of a noob at writing plugins. What events could I use to trigger these plugins? Thanks.

I'll be using Kunena 2.0.4, but I'm still on Joomla 1.5.

I don't know but this information may help: Kunena 2.0 plugins events . This is all I can find for you about Kunena "events". I hope the information is useful to you.

Thanks Sozzled. I know about those though, but none of them seem to be what I'm trying to do. The only one that may fit is onKunenaGetProfile, but I think that's more for the actual profile page then the profile in a post.

Are they any devs that could help me out?

As much as the team would love to drop everything and help you with this, the team is currently fully occupied with the building of K 3.0.0. It might be easier to engage a skilled PHP/Joomla specialist if this is urgent.

Hi Nicolas, did you ever figure this out? I was able to get this to work in Joomla 1.5, 1.7, and 2.5, and all in versions prior to Kunena 2.0, by adding the hack in components/com_kunena/template/default/view/profile.vertical.php

Put it in /components/com_kunena/template/default/view/profile.vertical.php on line 81 after:
<?php echo $this->profile->profileIcon('email'); ?>
</li>

And install this:

<?php

// Hack for jAwards integration, displays some medals of the user for Kunena 1.6
$number_medals = 10; // number of medals to show
$query = "SELECT b.image, b.name"
. "\n FROM #__jawards_awards AS a"
. "\n LEFT JOIN #__jawards_medals AS b ON b.id = a.award"
. "\n WHERE a.userid=". $this->profile->userid
. "\n ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT ".$number_medals;

$database = &JFactory::getDbo();
$database->setQuery( $query );
$medals = $database->loadObjectList();

// URL links to the jAwards-Tab for Community Builder which displays all
// medals of the user - change to another URL of needed
$awards_url=JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user='.$this->profile->userid."&tab=getawardstab");

// CSS-class "ja_medals" allows individual styling of medal images and
// container. "nobr" keeps the medals from breaking apart, display them
// in one row.
$msg_jawards = "<div class=\"ja_medals\"><nobr>";
foreach ($medals as $med){
$msg_jawards.= "<a href=\"$awards_url\" title=\"$med->name\">"
. "<img style='border:0px;padding:0px;' src=\"".KUNENA_JLIVEURL."/images/medals/".$med->image ."\" alt=\"".$med->name."\" />"
. "</a>";
}

$msg_jawards.="</nobr></div>";
unset($medals);
echo $msg_jawards;

?>



However something has changed in Kunena 2.0, which doesn't allow it to work for some reason. Any ideas what has changed?
