Hey guys, I'm working on some code to post statistics about review submissions for forum members, and also ways to automatically select winners etc. For this reason, it is CRITICAL that you ALWAYS use the exact display name from the forums as your Author or Name element when you post an equipment or course review. For instance, "DON", "srushing", "Klun", "Aimee", "laney", "DocT", etc.

Please advise if you have any questions, thanks.

Also for those previous records that might be slightly different, I'm working through the database to update them now, so no action is needed on your part.

I've also got another idea in the back of my mind that is going to involve a revolving account for registered members that will always keep track of the forum and review submissions, and they will get points over time that can be redeemed for gift cards or something. No promises here, but just giving you guys a heads up of some things to come in the future. This illustrates another reason why using the exact display name will be important - you won't receive credit if it's not an exact match.

Hmmmmmm.....You're asking a lot Chris.. smile My typing after a few beers or a bottle of wien isn't always so good smile

You might be giving us more credit than we deserve....

Hey, as an alternative, when people login, could you store a variable in the cookie that's the userid? So that you could link things that way? Just a thought.

Hmmm.. let me look into it. Admittedly, I have absolutely zero experience with cookies, but have always been meaning to learn about how to utilize and program with them. Thanks for the challenge.. smile
