hi, when i first got my board (about 1 week ago!) when you clicked to add to someones reputation, a thing came up giving you 2 options saying something like 'give or take from stu-j reputation?' (something like that!) now when you click it it just takes you to the top of the page, without changing their reputation.

could anyone tell me why this is and how i could fix it?

thanks

Are you using a custom skin?

yes! i am indeed!

Ah, ok.. that might be it. Is it made for the vB version you're running?

well the skin is for '3.5.x' and mine is 2.4, so yes, i should think so!

add if it helps - when you put the mouse over the button to press to add to reputation instead of the url for it being for example '/addrep.php' it is '/showthread364,php'
if that helps!

The way giving reputation works changed in about 3.5.2 - so a custom skin may be out of date.

Indeed.

Try reverting the specific template, but back up the old one first.

This might sound like a stupid question, but how do you revert the template?

Remember, there's no stupid questions but to ask me for a cookie! :p

Login to your admincp and go to:
Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Click 'edit templates' in the dropdown next to your skin -> Click the " [« »]" button next to the "User Reputation Templates".

One (or all) of these templates should now show in red. Open them all, and back them up to a text editor, then click [Revert] next to them, and they should be reverted.
