Use Rules to award userpoints for posting every day for a period

Hi,

I am new to the group, so forgive me if this is not the appropriate forum for this.

I am looking for some pointers/a recipe to encourage users to post content of a particular type daily by granting userpoints if they make it to a certain number of consecutive posts.

How can I create the rule to do this?

Minimally, it would be:
1) that a user creates a node of a particular content type that
2) meets a particular workflow state (i.e. must be published, not a draft) and
3) a minimum of once every 24 hours for a period of X days.

Newb: How do I link to a specific OG url? **SOLVED**

Hi,

solution>

My final setup looks like this:


[group:author:name],

[account:name] requests membership for group '[group:title]' in [group:url].

To activate this user, make sure you have logged in here: [site:login-url]

and then click the link below:

[group:url]#overlay=group/node/[group:nid]/admin/people&overlay-context=content/[group:group-group]

[og_membership:og-membership-request]


This takes the user straight to the page where they can activate the user.

Data not available To rules to set fields

I created a module using hook_rules_action_info. I can access the menu in Rules and I wrote a function in the module that takes numbers 1-10 and I shuffles them up to apply them to fields as to create a random pool. When I dpm the variable $numbers I see the array as integers displaying, but I am tiring in vain to use 'provide' as described in some tourtorials but I can not get it to be accessed by the entity api? I do have a return at the end of the function that does the number shuffle. I feel this is where I am doing something wrong? Or is there something else?

Weekly Email with Rules

I am trying to setup a Rules based email that is sent out weekly.

I have the 'Actions' set up, I just need some assistance with the 'Events' and 'Conditions.'

This email is not contingent upon a node or any sort of content being created, just day of the week, in this case every 'Monday' @ 5:00 AM.

I feel like this should be somewhat easy, but I am just missing something. Is there an easier way to do this?

I will possibly use 'Elysia Cron' going forward.

Recap:
- Sent an email with a static URL
- Weekly on Monday at 5:00 AM
- Repeats indefinitely

Thank you!

Set node->changed with Rules? Rules Link examples?

The task ir pretty much simple: with the click on the link, node "changed" time is modified to current time.

Cannot modify node->changed time with data selection - it is forbidden, or with custom php code:

$node->changed=time();
return $node;

Some other actions do work.
I use Rules Link, if it does matter.

What I am doing wrong?

Conditional message based on "start date" field

Scenario: I have a content type that describes an event that I want to keep visible after the start date but want to notify the visitor that the event is past the start date.

I found a module to hide the displayed start/end if "now" is greater than the start date but that's not really what I want.

I'm looking at how a "rule" might solve my problem but I'm a little lost.

What I've tried:

  • Created Component called "Expired Auction"

    • Data to compare: start-date
    • Operator value: Is Greater Than
    • Data value: now
  • Created a rule called "Auction Expired"

    • EVENTS

Error message while using User_block

Hi,

I am kind of new with Drupal, so I am not sure if I am writing in the right place.
I am using Drupal 7.28 with rules 7.x-2.7.
My goal is to control if admin validation is required depending on new user's role, but I get the following error message.

Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '238-5' for key 'PRIMARY': INSERT INTO {users_roles} (uid, rid) VALUES (:db_insert_placeholder_0, :db_insert_placeholder_1); Array ( [:db_insert_placeholder_0] => 238 [:db_insert_placeholder_1] => 5 ) en user_save() (C:\Apache24\htdocs\meetingpoint\modules\user\user.module).
