hi, I want to add more promotion group methods,

I'm newbie so I dont understand a lot of this.

I have searched, and I found this in the "inc\tasks\promotions.php" file:

		$and = "";
		$sql_where = "";
		// Based on the promotion generate criteria for user selection
		$requirements = explode(',', $promotion['requirements']);
		if(in_array('postcount', $requirements) && intval($promotion['posts']) > 0 && !empty($promotion['posttype']))
		{
			$sql_where .= "{$and}postnum {$promotion['posttype']} '{$promotion['posts']}'";
			
			$and = " AND ";
		}
		
		if(in_array('reputation', $requirements) && intval($promotion['reputations']) > 0 && !empty($promotion['reputationtype']))
		{
			$sql_where .= "{$and}reputation {$promotion['reputationtype']} '{$promotion['reputations']}'";
			
			$and = " AND ";
		}

with this... , can I add new colum like this?:

		{
			$sql_where .= "{$and}VAR_OF_NEW_METHOD {$promotion['MY_COLUMNtype']} '{$promotion['MY_COLUMN']}'";

//simplify: $sql_where .= "{$and}VAR_OF_NEW_METHOD > 5 ";
			
			$and = " AND ";
		}

is something like this? or am I wrong?


the question is "VAR_OF_NEW_METHOD" how to do it?,

i mean if you see in:

$sql_where .= "{$and}postnum {$promotion['posttype']} '{$promotion['posts']}'";

postnum is the variable of posts but i dont know how it create it
or call it.


I think I have to do another table with the id and var of each user,
or use some variable , for example ehm , pm's recived,
"a promotion for who recived 34533 pm's xd",

how could I put something like this there?


s: i know is very crazy , and my english is so bad...xd
but i want to try it.

Just glancing it appears that you have it right. I would run it on a test site first.
