sPoints not getting updated in every module

Hi All!

I have found a couple of places where RavenNuke is not updating the points: submitting news id=4 and recommending the site to a friend id=3. Although you can change the points that would be assigned, the points are never updated because update_points() is never called.

In the case of submit news, it is not even called in the original 7.6 code, so it is not surprising that it is not included in RavenNuke. In the case of the Recommend_Us module, it exists in the original 7.6, but not RavenNuke. Since this module was completely reworked (apparently to prevent spamming), I am also not surprised that it got left out considering the lack of enthusiasm for the point system.

As I mentioned in another post, I am in the process of implementing a combination of the standard nuke groups and the NSN Groups, so this is a somewhat important aspect for me. Finding an appropriate place in the code is not really the issue. I am more or less just pointing this out to anyone who cares.

regards,

jimmo

Turns out the News module does all of the work itself. The function postStory() in News/admin/index.php updates the database itself, without calling update_points.
