I assume you mean with vBulletin using YAAW?
If so then read the install.txt document you get after you downloaded the zip

Installation:

Step 1: Unzip the files to a directory on your computer.

Step 2: Upload the files to your forums directory.
Directory structure:
{ROOT}/awards.php
{ROOT}/award_request.php

{ROOT}/admincp/award.php
{ROOT}/admincp/award_cat.php

{ROOT}/includes/settings.request_award.php
{ROOT}/includes/xml/cpnav_awards.xml

{ROOT}/images/medals/*

Step 3: Import the YAAS Product into your plugin system
- Go to AdminCP/Plugin System/Manage Products/[Add/Import Product]
- Select the file: product-yet_another_award_system.xml
- Click Import

The installer will create new tables for awards, add new phrases, and templates to your database.


Step 4. Edit templates. Read instruction in /docs/awards_install_template.html

Step 5 (optional): If you use Award Request function, configure
{ROOT}/includes/settings.request_award.php and re-upload the file. Read the file for detail instruction.
