Support Forum
not just yet no, I didnt want to try and impliment anything that hadnt been tested until i have my server press installation up and running so i can tiner with things like this without causing issue on the active site (which is proving troublesome but I'm working through it with their support) I was just posting on the off shot that the idea had maybe come up before and there was a known way to do it allready.
took a quick look at the plugin... looks like it just updates all the cubepoint stuff in the database... then you just use the standard cubepoints method of displaying... so however you display that now, would be the same... just add the command into the sp template file where you want it to appear (would be in spTopicView.php based on your previous)...
one caveat, the cubepoints plugin for wp lacks documentation, but appears only to support shortcodes... so if you want to do a shortcode in an sp template file, do it like:
do_shortcode('[cubepoints_sc]')
obviously replace the stuff inside the [ ] with the shortcode and any attributes...

Hey guys just wanted to report back that I found A way to do it, it isnt quite as elegant as I would like as the text displays a little larger then I would want but im going to look into that later, what I did was edit the spTopicView with a little trial and error, to save people time in the future:
Your Looking for the section that begins
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
sp_ColumnStart('tagClass=spUserSection spLeft&width=15%&height=50px');
With In that section choose the element you want the Points to display above and or below of, and enter the following on a new line:
That snippet will display the posters Cube Points Rank along with the adequete space added above and below the read out to improve readability (though if you dont want that space remove the first and last
from that line
ah good work... wasnt much docs on cubepoints and I did not troll through the code, but you can do the same with any other plugin or theme function that is callable... power of themes!
