Ok, yeah I got it working now thnx :)
@Fuzzlr
Could you make an option to disable the /sync [nick] [password] because lots of my players are either to stupid but they think its the minecraft password..
A simple /sync would just be easier imo

Yes, I meant to say the display style group.

Posted Apr 1, 2012Hi Looks great, any news on a 1.2.4 R1.0 compatible version? I tried your v 3.5.0 and then i tried the 3.5.1 snapshot on our 1.2.4 R1.0 server for the hell of it and of course got a load of errors in console - I dont want to wait though! lol.

Yes but why do it that way when it can be much easier done by checking the style group? Or have options doing it both ways, I now think my way is much easier and better for my server and especially for XenForo.
Regardless of this you have done a awesome job and I can't thank you enough!

To know how a rank is higher in your permissions system you need to put a "priority" or "rank".
Example with PEX: https://github.com/PEXPlugins/PermissionsEx/wiki/Basic-Permissions-Setup#wiki-set-rank-order

I still can't figure out how it knows what rank is higher?
I compiled my own test just to see if my theory worked by using "display_style_group_id" and it seems to work. Although I can't change ranks because in XenForo you can't change ranks in the database by just switching numbers in the column.
But I'm just having this feeling I'm just completely misunderstanding everything here ^^

It reads the column and simply put the people in the according groups (Example I got a group ID 2,3,4 that someone belongs to then OKB will associate the user to group 2,3,4 of your configuration)

Hmm I can't find "display_group_id" only "display_style_group_id", but I still don't understand how OKB3 reads the right group from the secondary_group_ids, or maybe you don't use it?
Because my XenForo is setup that way so everyone is in the "Registred" group (even admins) so everyone has the same permissions. And if I want to give someone more permissions I just set them into a secondary group and they will get all permissons that "Registred" has plus those in that specific secondary_group.
But if my idea doesn't work I would greatly appreciate if you told me how you made your solution work.

This is my solution for Xenforo users:
In your xf_users table there should be a column called display_group_id. This is the rank that users are displayed as on the boards. Now, if you have correct priorities to each group, an account upgrade would override the default member group and change the display_group_id to the higher rank.

Posted Mar 31, 2012I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I really can't get OKB3 to sync my donation ranks. When I give someone a upgrade they still are the normal rank. The database says [31,32] where group 32 is the higher rank.
If someone solved this please help me I really need the help!

Posted Mar 31, 2012I put a pull request on Github for the IPB class. You just had a minor typo in the field name for a member's group ID.

So it does figure out what rank is highest or what?
@Fuzzlr
Display ids? Could you explain this for me please, I would really appreciate it.

User rank and Secondary groups are 2 different things. At this moment what im doing if you set the plugin to use secondary groups only it get's all his secondary group and give what each rank belongs to.

There's no need to customize OKB3 for your purpose because you can just use the display ids on Xenforo, given that you apply the appropriate priorities to each group. This will automatically promote users to their donation rank with the standard OKB3 Renewed.

Is there anyway you could make OKB3 actually use secondary_groups? Because XenForo is a little special so if a player donates via the forum they get another group added to their secondary_group_ids. Now for OKB3 to read the newest rank we have to remove the last rank from the list
Example:
User1 has rank User (id:1)
User1 donates for rank Super (id:2)
XenForo adds id: 2 to the list of Secondary_groups like this:
[1,2]
So is there a way to make OKB3 read that comma and then by a rank ladder figure out what rank is the highest and then give the user that rank?
