the group_details.asp it will affect on the admin?

if i will change the admin stars in the group_details.asp from 5 to 6 it will affect on something badly or it will be ok and just change the stars?

I was wondering about changing the number of stars too.  I have 9 levels instead of 5 and know I have to modify something to make the "sort by number of stars" feature to work properly.

Maybe somebody could help us?

I'll be upgrading to version 7.5 this weekend or next.  When I do, I'll look into how to do it and will post my results here.

I guess noone else needs more than 5 stars?

If someone has done it, I would appreciate it if you share.

What's with all the hostility you too.  Chill.  Both of you.

And Mad Dog, there was nothing on changing the asp code to allow more than 5 stars when I posted.  There were lots of posts on how to change the image.  I'm not talking about changing the image, I am talking about changing the asp code.  And I am not talking about permissions.  We never even mentioned the word permissions.  What are you reading?

Borg has done several things to the forums.  One of the things he has done is allow you to go to the members list and sort by number of stars.  What I personally wanted to know was that if I change the asp code so that it has more stars so the members list sorts correctly, will I be messing up any other part of Borgs code without realizing it.

And, chill man.  I can understand a request to do a search, but you didn't have to swear! 

Thank's guys

How would that sort in the members list page when you sort by number of stars? 

I was thinking that we had to change the asp code to include more options for more stars to make it sort correctly.

Also, a suggestion for future editions: Allow sort by number of starts to show the highest number of stars first.  Personally, I am more interested in seeing who the heavy hitters are rather than who hasn't posted much.  But maybe that is just me.  Ascending and Descending would be nice.

1. Lets say we've created a new group in the group admin called "supertechie". For the rank, there are currently only 5 allowable ranks in the drop down field in the group configurator, so we pick 4 out of 5 stars for for this group. We now add a custom star pic that has 8 out of 10 stars for rank. And lastly, we choose the non-ladder group option.
2. Now lets create a new user called "XuSeR" to go in this group. We assign XuSeR to the group supertechie.
3. When you access the MemberList in sort by star mode, it shows XuSeR as member of the supertechie group with the custom  8 out of 10 star graphic, BUT it puts all groups with 4 or more stars (selected at time of creation in the group admin) below him.

Now for what I think you would like to see happen:

1. Code for creating a new group in the group admin needs to be edited to allow 10 ranks in the drop down field in the group configurator. This will accommodate the custom star pic that has 8 out of 10 stars for rank .
2. Now when you access the MemberList in sort by star mode, it shows XuSeR as member of the supertechie group with the custom  8 out of 10 star graphic, AND lists him in the proper position. Only groups with 9 or more stars (selected at time of creation in the group admin) will be below him.

That's what I am looking to for, and sounds like you are too. I don't think that adding/changing all the code will be that hard, but I could be wrong. I am going to try to do this mod, but am not the best coder. If anyone else is up to it, we could use the help.
