what custom mods are you running on your site? If any..

[Darkwaltz4]

I think I'm using a style system where the template hooks don't work for some reason, so am basically adding them in as I go along. Although, if the credits itself shows up accurately, shouldn't the decimal do so as well? *confused*

All I'm really doing right now is adding $post[credits] and that alone to postbit_legacy, actually.

Alright, well you will have to wait for 1.4 for the variables to be corrected automatically for you.

That is really weird, and apparently the first person to have this happen to them. What version of vb are you running?

[Wais]

Ive got 3.6.8.

[Head Roller]

I am very interested in adding a "points" or "rewards" system to my portal... however I am looking for the points/rewards to be able to be redeemed in my retail store and for our services. Is this mod created primarily for arcade and gambling sites? Would it make sense for the purpose I need?

Also, I use vbPortal, and PhotoPost. Would participation in these Modules be able to integrate into the points system?

I apologize if any of this has been addressed previously... 52 pages is a lot to read!! hehe

Thanks in advance.

ok now i removed some useless hacks and cleaned my db but isnt still importing:confused:

[Darkwaltz4]

Come talk to me on IM so we can figure out which one is interfering with your product imports (I see a couple possible candidates but I cant be sure until i see what some of them are, like the german ones)

sorry for ignoring your post. does your store take points? if not, you will have to wait for vBCommerce which will have that kind of functionality.

as for vbportal and photopost, what kind of integration did you have in mind?

[Head Roller]

My store does not take points, no... But I thought i could convert them to a coupon or something. I am very interested in the vBCommerce... Do you have a timeline on that yet?

As far as the vbPortal and PhotoPost, I would just like points to be awarded for all kinds of participation on the site, including uploading images to our Gallery and adding articles to the LEARNing Center that is in the Portal.

[PixelFx]

we use photopost vbgallery v2.3 on vbcredits.com :D but haven't intergrated vbcredits yet with it .. vbgallery vs pro is much easier to intergrate .. devs at photopost converted all 5 of my own pro licences to vbgallery licenses which was nice of them :D

[GekkoPixie]

I have two things to say:

1) PixelFx and Darkwaltz4 are awesome, and the hard work on this hack and the rest in the series is awesome and much appreciated.

2) I have been quietly awaiting vBCredits 1.4, as well as vBCommerce to complete my forums, and have been reading vBCredits.com every so often to check the status. Anyone with an RP forum should be jumping up and down by now, waiting outside with signs and flags at midnight, lol.

[Digital Jedi]

Digital Jedi: so, is it working for you then?
Yes, seems to be working just fine. I have yet to test the actual function of the product. But I'm waiting to have my users do that as sort of a beta run.

[Hendrizius]

What is your copyright notice? A link in the footer?

[Digital Jedi]

Something like this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

[GekkoPixie]

I forgot! I was going to ask: Is there a way to assign an image, such as a dollar sign, to the system so that the image shows up instead of saying 'award ____ credits' in the postbit?

[Darkwaltz4]

do you mean the post award system? right now it is a coin icon, which you could replace. if there isnt a coin you probably never uploaded it :-p

you could also assign an image for the 'credits' phrase :-p (or an image and words, who knows! lol)

[Hendrizius]

Something like this:

http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/6966/tempqw9.jpg

Oke, don't you think that is a bit too much? I don't know if you are experienced with Search Engine Optimization, but the more Links you have on every page, the less important Search Engines think your website is.

I do not think so you should add a link for now, as Links are only in my opinion awarded for Addons like Zoints SEO, or VBSeo who aflect every page and even the server as they use some special Apache Options. In my opinion you should if, use a text link, or make a new page where Info about your MOD is written with a link on there, like a FAQ item.

Let me know what you think about this =).

[PixelFx]

What the point in even trying to discuss it ....

[jonty]

is it possible to exclude groups from viewing/using credits ?

[Hendrizius]

The branding/copyright notices are fair, and our core scripts are free, I would rather spend my time supporting our scripts than complaining about something that is so trivial. We've worked hard to support all our systems, and those that use our systems and scripts.



I've been doing seo/sem for 15+ years, long before google and other companys came along. Our branding links all meet the required optimizations. If you read the guidelines it says not to have more than 100 links on your page, and that the quality of the links that are list are more important.



Quoted directly from google guidelines, branding/copyright helps with word of mouth about the systems we've made. Seems fair.

From this point forward I'd rather focus time, on supporting and building our scripts, than discussing if our copyright is going to hurt someones seo ranks, its not.

Sorry to say, but that is completly wrong, SEO is dependent on every small change on every Website, one Link more could at least get you one place lower for special keywords on every page, as Search Engines rank the importance of your Websites / of your Links by counting all the Links on your Website. Have a look at the Pagerank algorithm (I know PageRank is not very important for SEO). But as the rank decreases, it is a money-loss for many website owners. So that why it is not trivial, it is important.

Well, it seems like Backlink farming to me, you should offer a Link-free option with just text, like VBSEO does, then to come back to your point of fairness, it sounds "fair". I just wondered, you did SEO long before companies came along? What is the Point of Optimization then if there are no Search Engines? ;) And, do not trust Googles Guidelines completly, they do not give out much info.

[Darkwaltz4]

Hendrizius: you havent even downloaded this, so why are you raising such a fuss? I have already established that this permeates your entire board and some aspect is always displayed due to it. As you dont agree with the terms, it is completely okay that you have decided against using vBCredits. If youd gone to vbcredits.com youd see an enormous amount of stuff available and in the works for vBCredits, not available here at vbulletin.org, and still completely free. This is the small price you pay for all of it.

is it possible to exclude groups from viewing/using credits ?

Not until 1.4

the error is something that is using an hook within the vbcredits page. (credits_start)

check if anything uses that hook in the plugin page.

Thanks, and how do i change the name of the currency from Credits to something else ? :D

[cheat-master30]

Search Credits or credits and edit that phrase which has nothing else except for that word. This phrase I think:

$vbphrase[credits]

[TaTTol]

thanks!

Hey Dark,

Any update on Vbcommerce? I can't wait for that to come out

[raiderlax]

Hey Dark,

Any update on Vbcommerce? I can't wait for that to come out


Most likely vbcredits 1.4 will come out before vbcommerce, so...

[Darkwaltz4]

Odd... Sorry, I didn't realize. See attached:

Yeah you are missing the icon. If you have style folders for custom styles be sure to add it to it. Look for it in the upload/images/buttons folder in the zip.

Hi, how can i set the amount of credits per post and per thread? i could not find it!

Usergroup editor.

Thanks, and how do i change the name of the currency from Credits to something else ? :D

edit phrase 'credits'

Hey Dark,

Any update on Vbcommerce? I can't wait for that to come out

check my site for updates and demos

[GekkoPixie]

Yeah you are missing the icon. If you have style folders for custom styles be sure to add it to it. Look for it in the upload/images/buttons folder in the zip.
That worked! I never would have thought to do that, so thanks. :)

Another question: I just noticed that one of my skins has an odd white spot behind the credit info (see attachment). Can you tell me where to edit the style info to get rid of that?

[Darkwaltz4]

the problem is you need to add the respective class to the creadits row being added to the postbit. however this behavir is changed to fix precisely this problem. the only real fix is to use 1.4 for the plugin code, which i would have to apply to your board.

[Robert7]

vBcredits is nothing whithout vBcommerce... waiting for commerce...

[GekkoPixie]

It seems to only affect the one skin (though it is oddly the most popular =\ ) so unless I get major complaints I will wait out 1.4. If my users complain, though, expect a PM, lol. Thanks again, Darkwalz :)

[DoUnCaDa]

have u ever been get a problem when u were converted vbplaza to thıs mod?
is this mod safer than plaza.
who can tell me ı was installed or converted and ı have no problem now and great than plaza.

ı want to ınstall thıs but ı get confused about thıs questıons...

and can we use all feautres ın thıs mod ? or must we a pay?

[Darkwaltz4]

what problems are you having? for starters you are using an old version of vbcredits so you are missing lots of new features. if you indicated you have installed you will get update messages.

[adc-arab]

^^ dark can u add a small icon for a dollar or a gold coin after the number of credits the user have
example:
credits:1000 (the icon appears here)

it would be great if u add it ^^

[Darkwaltz4]

in 1.4 you can edit the template and add your own icon

you can still do this in 1.3, but requires editing two locations in one of the plugins.

[adc-arab]

lol sorry my bad i hadn't think of that :D

[Retal]

This is one of the most potent mods for vBulletin ever released, Darkwaltz4 provides support on a level I haven't seen even with commercial companies and some of you are b*tching about two f**king links in the footer or measly 60 dollars for the brand-free version.
I am impatiently waiting for the release of vBCommerce and I am more than willing to pay/donate a nice sum to Darkwaltz4 and PixelFx if the combination does what I need.

- voted MOTM
- eagerly expecting vBCredits 1.4 and vbCommerce!

Darkwaltz4, will there be / is there a bank (purchase credits via PayPal, possibly even sell them back?) and an exchange market in the pro version, something like NamePros have?
http://www.namepros.com/npexchange.php
Also will it be possible to highlight or sticky threads for credits in the vBCommerce?

Keep up the great work!

[Darkwaltz4]

:) Thanks for the kind words..

Bank is being developed for v1.4, it is the main highlight of the build, and because of numerous strengthenings is why its taking so long. To see the alpha version of the bank, its installed on vbcredits.com

PayPal support addon is here: http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24
In the next versions I am going to make a sellback system, however it will not be completely automated (this is impossible as PayPal does not allow transfers to be initiated by the seller)

vBCommerce contains the itemshop, including for members

vBCustomizer will handle those things and much more in regards to threads

[RoutineX]

Hi there, just wanted to say thats an excellent mod you got there.

Was also going to mention how NamePros did it. They are using uShop, but since unfortunately most of the shop mods aren't supported anymore, it would be an excellent addition if you were able to develop vBCommerce and keep going like you're doing with vBCredits.

NamePros is using uShop so people can purchase title changes, purchase a sticky for X days, changing of the username, buying ribbons and other things.

You have to register to see the page Retal mentioned (http://www.namepros.com/npexchange.php) where members can auction off their points and set rates to sell it for.

hello john
I was play around crdits to make it look with red color
I go to admincp and edit phrase then search for credits
and replace it with
<b><font color="red">creditsة</font></b>
also I go to navbar and replace $credits_navbar with
<b><font color="red">$credits_navbar</font></b>
now all work gr8 and look with red color just 1 thing I don’t know how color it
the color of xxx number of credit on postbit
can u help me on this?

thanks

[Darkwaltz4]

for now until 1.4, you have to edit the plugin that says display credits in postbits.

youll have to edit it twice within that plugin, and it requires a little bit of php knowledge. now you know why i am switching that out of the plugins :-p if you cant figure it out i might post some of the 1.4 plugin and postbit code so you can modify the templates instead, and itll be much easier

[solinarius]

Hello.
Any idea how to change this mod for rpg integration hack?
I have some problems with that, error like that appears:
Invalid SQL:

SELECT `userid`, `rpg`, `items`, `inventory`, `uttpoints` AS `points`
FROM `vb_user`
WHERE `userid` = '2342';

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'uttpoints' in 'field list'

[Darkwaltz4]

is that for lite or full version?

[solinarius]

Its different rpg system, You can find it here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=108790
But im stupid, that's all. I just saw one person which asked about that before, so i thought this mod need special integration, but i had to change vbulletin options->rpg hack cash options
"uttpoints" for "credits" and that's it, You can add this rpg mod to list of hacks working with vBcredits.
Anyway, thanks for trying and sorry for disturbing .

[Darkwaltz4]

:-p that would be the 'lite' version, and if youd said that I would have told you about the points row :D

the full version is getting a converter

[habasabi]

WOOT finally got the chance to install this!!! It's great!

[Ba$im]

I would if u have time tell me what word
should I edite to make it show Number of xxx credite on postbit withe red color
cuz when I make check on what code add on postbit
<if condition="$show['credits_postadd']">
<span id="creditsmenu_$post[postid]"><a href="credits.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]" rel="nofollow" id="credits_$post[postid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/credits.gif" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]" 2="$vbphrase[credits]">$vbphrase[credits_threadaward]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></span>
<if condition="$show['popups']"><script type="text/javascript"> vbcdt_register("$post[postid]")</script></if>&nbsp;
</if>
now this code I try play aroun it but I confused
cuz there are nothing like $post[cedit]
cuz if was that will be more esaire to make it with red color

[Darkwaltz4]

thats template code. i said plugin. 1.4 is different, but for now...

Display Credits in Postbit:

$credits_this = array($this->post['postid'], $this->post['userid'], vb_number_format($this->post['credits'], $this->registry->options['credits_decimals']));
$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right'] = str_replace('<div class="info"><a href="credits.php?' . $this->registry->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u=' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][1] . '">' . $vbphrase['credits'] . '</a>: <span id="cdt_' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][0] . '_' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][1] . '">' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][2] . '</span></div>', '', $template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right']);
if ($this->registry->options['credits_public'] == 2 OR ($this->registry->options['credits_public'] == 1 AND ($this->post['userid'] == $this->registry->userinfo['userid'] OR ($this->registry->bf_ugp['creditpermissions']['credit_special'] & $this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['creditpermissions']))))
{
$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right'] .= '<div class="info"><a href="credits.php?' . $this->registry->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u=' . $credits_this[1] . '">' . $vbphrase['credits'] . '</a>: <span id="cdt_' . $credits_this[0] . '_' . $credits_this[1] . '">' . $credits_this[2] . '</span></div>';
}
$GLOBALS['credits_last'] = $credits_this;


to colorize it you have to change it in two places:
'">' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][2] . '</span></div>' to like
'"><font color="red">' . $GLOBALS['credits_last'][2] . '</font></span></div>'

and then
'">' . $credits_this[2] . '</span></div>' to like
'"><font color="red">' . $credits_this[2] . '</font></span></div>'

again, this is kinda messy, but its been redone in 1.4, and if you want that plugin before release you have to come talk to me.

[Ba$im]

work gr8 thanks
also credit on navbar
I don’t want be as a link
what should I do?

[Darkwaltz4]

edit the show credits in navbar PLUGIN

again, also changed to templates in 1.4

[helloxy]

help!! when i try to transfer Nexia Points to vBCredits. it said:
The following dependencies were not met:
The product vbBux / vbPlaza must be installed before this product may be installed. (Compatible starting with 1.5.8)

but i didnt install vbbux/vbplaza at all.
i only installed Nexia's Points System 1.0.1.
and i had uploaded nexia_to_vbcredits.php.

whats wrong??

[Darkwaltz4]

:-p the issue

is that i apparently put the wrong error message. (nexia's converter was originally the vbux version heh)

however, you are running an old version of nexia's point system.
the converter works with the latest version that was available. i could try lowering the version but i cannot guarantee the database will match up, so come talk to me on IM so I can coach you through an edited version.

[helloxy]

thx for your help, ill update the Nexia's point system and try again.

[Smiry Kin's]

whats the best shop / purchase system to use?

[vitrag24]

hello.
Thx 4 such a gr8 Mod but i've some queries.

I have installed it but credits are shown only in user profile not even in usercp,below pm, posts....

where is the problem?

And in vb options what should i keep ideally for vbcredits plz tell me..as i'm confused :D
have a look at my forum[link in my signature]

[Darkwaltz4]

you are probably missing the template hooks, so add them to your custom style from the directions at the bottom of the instructions file

also, for another interested, there is now a HIDE HACK addon for vbcredits, see it in action at vbcredits.com, more info on it there.

[vitrag24]

added templatehook in postbit template and got but usercp and what abt postbitlegacy?
i'm confused where to add.
any other small queries too.

[chris1979]

When is 1.4 coming? :)

[Darkwaltz4]

haha, 1.4 contains an enormous bank with many interest and loan systems :-p its being stabilized on localhost. as thats the highlight of 1.4 i want it perfect (how many sucky bank hacks have there been so far??)

vbcredits.com will always have announcements and latest-stable-version testings.

This bank version looks like the best bank mod released here so far, and it's actually built in to the point system. If it has all those features you say, then tgat will be extremely and very much awesome. Is there really any other possible use for a points system other than what you have in vB Credits, vB Commerce and vB Customiser?

[Darkwaltz4]

sure, credits can be used in pretty much anything, although a bunch will need addons :-p if you have something you like and think credits would make a nice addition to it, feel free to suggest it at the addon forum for vbcredits at vbcredits.com

theres also the nifty hide hack ;) (charge credits to view content!)

[cheat-master30]

It looks like the modification developer here has thought about everything when it comes to credit use. I mean, credits, shop, customisation, arcade, card games, downloads, bank etc...

What about something that adds user account enhancements like uShop (vb 3.0.x) used to have. By user account enhancements, i mean: Bold Username, Italic Username, Underlined Username, Colored Username, Glow Username, Custom Title, Change Other's Title, etc.

[Darkwaltz4]

yes, thats the entire premise of vBCustomizer. theres a demo link to it at the top of the screen.

[Darkwaltz4]

um, thats completely offtopic, but its a 3.5 activity hack available here at vborg

[Smiry Kin's]

what is http://www.domain.com/credits.php?u=1
ment to bring up? is it ment to bring up the list, or the information for that person?

because at the moment it seems to just bring up the list.. e.g
http://www.domain.com/credits.php?u=5
http://www.domain.com/credits.php?u=10
http://www.domain.com/credits.php?u=999

etc etc will bring up the list, rather then information for the person

- if thats how its ment to be,

wouldn;t it make sense to rather have the Credits bit in postbit, do the same thing as the "button" does?

regards

[Darkwaltz4]

the links in postbits, profiles, and navbars link you to the donation form with that user filled in as recipient.

furthermore, if your group has the perms to view other user's transaction logs, then that person's will be loaded there.

because its somewhat blurry thats whats going on, 1.4 fixes this, and you can see how it works now on vbcredits.com. new is the Donate link which makes it clear thats what youre doing, and a "check" link which goes to the bank accounts of that user, if your perms permit that.

ah i see that now,

imo yo need to remove the top 10 users from that section..

e.g if you go to the url like this

http://www.domain.com/credits.php?u=1

you should see just the transation logs, if not be redirected to something else maybe?

[Darkwaltz4]

yes, 1.4 has two credits pages now.

first contains all the banking stuff, loans, and the transaction logs.

the second is sort of the page which you are using now, with the donation, top x, and lottery stuff.

ahh nice also another lil minor problem - check image attached

[Darkwaltz4]

oh yeah, 1.3 style issue.

you can fix it by setting the first cell to valign top (it was accidentally at bottom...)

and shortening the size of the comment input.

its corrected in 1.4......

if you click install youll get an update when its out :D

[Deadly Assassin]

How can i stop it showing my credits, like this.

660.3333333333333333333333

With that many 3's?

Thanks.

[Darkwaltz4]

normally you set the decimals in the acp.

but if you added it manually to the template then it wont. 1.4 fixes this, and i can set you up with some modified plugin code if you come IM me

[Deadly Assassin]

Cheers m8, will do :up:

[cpvr]

One of my users suggested a good feature for this...


I think when you click on "Preview Post" you should be able to see how many credits you will get with that post or new thread
Is it possible be add this feature?

[FatalBreeze]

A user in my forums has reported a bug. He says that when you give a user credits, and that user has reached the capacity of its PMs then he doesn't get a PM about the credits transfer, moreover, the transaction doesn't appear on the the transaction list.

Can you verify?

[pspcrazy]

Any sort of integration done for rpginferno v3 as of yet?

[Darkwaltz4]

Possibly, but maybe not until 1.5

A user in my forums has reported a bug. He says that when you give a user credits, and that user has reached the capacity of its PMs then he doesn't get a PM about the credits transfer, moreover, the transaction doesn't appear on the the transaction list.

Can you verify?

That should not be a factor, and they should still get the message even if they are at their limit. Something else had to have been the cause of not sending the credits. If you can repeat it, try to get more information on what was attempted.

Any sort of integration done for rpginferno v3 as of yet?

Not yet sorry, I have the files though and it will certainly be getting some integration and converters :)

[Adam21]

May i know how much credits does the thanked person received per thanks?And where's the settings for it?Thanks

[Darkwaltz4]

if you install the thanks hack-credits addon (look in the extra/addon folder of the main zip) then you will find the settings for that in the usergroup editor

Geez!How could i have missed that!Thank you,great mod!My nomination of MOTM goes to you.:up::)

[Darkwaltz4]

:D no problem

also, thanks again to everyone who nominated AND voted for us for MOTM :)

[Adam21]

Sorry,2 more question if you dont mind.Whats the row name for the vbcredits if i were to manually add them using a query?

i.e

UPDATE user SET vbcredits=vbcredits+100 WHERE userid IN (1, 11)

Is that it?

And is there a way to disallow certain usergroups from donating their credits to another?Thats because some might just have duplicate accounts to do so.

[Digital Jedi]

You know, a snazzy option for a future addition might be an admin option to disallow donations from users to users with the same IP addresses. Maybe a little box you can fill in to allow specific IPs for those special cases where family members use the same computer. Just a thought. I have no idea how feasible that is.

[dpatel304]

Fantastic mod! A couple questions though:

1) I want to award 1 point everytime someone posts. Is there any quick way I can award users for their current post count? When I installed the mod, everyone had 0 credits, regardless of how many posts they have.

2) When users are in more than one usergroup, the credits seem to be adding up different. Instead of getting 1 point per post, I get something entirely different. It only seems to work fine with users in 1 usergroup. Is there anyway around this? I would prefer to keep my usergroups the same. Thanks.

the row is `credits`. 1.4 has usergroup locks :) (not 1.3, sorry)

o.o you can suggest it on my site, not sure when / if i would do this. i dont really trust ip things.

1) yes, use the mass credit updater located at the bottom of the update counters screen. you can update most awards, not just posting :)

2) are you sure you dont have post size awards enabled? (per char / word)

You can use admin log in as user hack posted somewhere here.
you can log in as any user by that mod and check their problem and find solution. :)

[megamoose]

Probably one of the best, most feature-full and easy to install points system I've seen on any board software.

Well done on this. It truly is an amazing piece of code.

[kartik786]

any updates on ushop ucash integrations :( !?

[Darkwaltz4]

To use vbcredits with ushop, go to the ucash settings, and set points field to credits, and set all the "points for.." to 0, so awards dont double up anywhere.

as for a converter, it is not ready yet, sorry

I wrote something for Nexialys that allowed developers to add their own link under a central menu by using a hook which you can read about here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1225023)

Is there something similar in vBCredits?

[pspcrazy]

Thanks looking forward to the RPG integration really badly :)

add their own link? right now theres really only one link (two in 1.4) so i dont know what good a full menu would be. perhaps for vbcommerce though.

working on it. i know in the lite version you can input the points hack to use, but in the full version i think it has its own which will need to be replaced...

I'd love to see Reviewpost and Photopost Pro intergration.

feel free to suggest this at vbcredits.com, and elaborate on what kind of integrations you would like to see :-p

[applyimage]

Hey a little confusion with what this mod does, I understand you gain points but does this include the 'shop' to spend them in or will I require another hack for this? :)

[djilou]

or will I require another hack for this? :)
yes :(

[applyimage]

:( So what hack on top of this would I then require? I hear the name vbplaza everywhere, would that be it?

[Boidy]

The developer of this hack is also developing vBCommerce which will complement this hack, providing similar features to vBPlaza.

[pspcrazy]

I'm having some odd glitches with this software as of yet. With the rate thread feature i can get 500 points from one rate when i set the multiplyer to 0 and the rate feature to 5. Also i woke up today and someone had -45000 points randomly and that person was a mod :|

[pspcrazy]

Very nice i can't wait for vbcommerce until then i'll keep the shop software nothing :)

[harmor19]

I meant for people creating add-ons to vBCredits. For example let's say I'm developing an add-on for a lottery system (I know it's been done before). I can use a hook to add a link under a central menu that links to my lottery script.

Yea she did, but i removed all the multipliers so im a bit confused :|

[Darkwaltz4]

yeah - i know all about that bug.

to fix:
Edit Plugin: Thread Rate Credit Application
FIND
$reward = (1 + $this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['credit_threadrate'] * $this->registry->userinfo['credits_numrefs']) * $this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['credit_threadrate'];


replace with
$reward = (1 + $this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['credit_refbonus'] * $this->registry->userinfo['credits_numrefs']) * $this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['credit_threadrate'];

might want to recalc everyone's credits afterwards

you only need to update the plugin if you use the thread rating credit award

this is great. will it work for 3.5.x? tia

no, i havent made this hack to work for 3.5 and i might not until everything else is done. rest assured youll have to do more file edits :-p sorry

some NEWS
theres been two new addons added, check out the addon section at the top post.
and to see the feature lock for 1.4, check out front page of vbcredits.com, youll see why everything is taking so long :-p (try to remain calm)

I'm still reading through the 875 posts to see if anyone else is having these issues but so far I'm not seeing anything.

I installed this yesterday. I have it set to give everyone 10 points a day for logging in. Last night it gave everyone ten points, even if they haven't been to the board for months (or in some cases, years).

Also, I had 2xx points when I went to bed. I woke up to over 900. Any ideas why? Lots of people got points over night for reasons I can't figure out.

[gingery]

A couple of more things...

I checked and my time credit is set to zero and my activity credit is set to 10. I have the activity credit set to "log in".

From what I can tell, everyone got points for referral overnight. (Is there a log somewhere that shows where my 9xx points came from?) I'm resetting everyone to zero tonight so that I can run a September contest. Will the referral points be issued again at midnight (or worse yet, every day at midnight) or was that a one time thing?

Yes it is possible that they all got referral credits - and for one time only. You see, in vbcredits referrals need to be validated before they are "counted" in the system. so, lots of people have referrals, but 0 were validated, and as they were, the users get the referral awards. This also builds up the additive referral bonus (which gets some new caps in 1.4), so this also induces some differences between seemingly similar users. the equations for each award always include several factors which you might have forgotten had something to do with them.

Is it possible to add credits outside of vbulletin? Such as if they submit something when they are login on a page outside of the forums, and then they receive credit in their vbulletin account.

its possible to add credits to any vbulletin enabled page, but will generally require some tweaking or an addon. suggest it in the addon forum on vbcredits.com

Works like a charm. Another suggestion: Integrate a shop yourself, as there are currently only rather bad shop-systems out. That would certainly improve the quality of this mod even more.

He's working on vB Commerce and vB Customiser, two shop like systems. One allows buying of images and the like, one allows you to charge for user options and name styles. And I think another one allows for real money donations and real items to be bought.

Hi,
" If you do NOT have TMS installed, apply the 7 Template Edits listed below. "
What does TMS stand for? I am trying to install but can't understand what that stands for.

[Darkwaltz4]

If you dont know what TMS stands for, you probably arent using TMS, so make the template edits manually. It wont hurt your forum if you had it installed and still made the edits manually.

[haytham]

How do I explain to my members what they can do with vbcredit? Anyone make like a file or thread to show their members how to use it?
I installed it on 3.6.8 with no template edits. It was pretty easy. Thanks

[Darkwaltz4]

there is a list at the top post which includes various third party hacks you can use it with. im also making two huge addons for it as well :-p or check out vbcredits.com for some extra stuff and premium addons not listed here.

[haytham]

Ok man thanks. So the template edits aren't essential right? Ok one more dumb question ( on my side) where can I get this " quiz" mod that you have in your addon folder? Thanks.

Sorry forgot...on your forum I saw a message saying something like " you need -- credits to see this post" so how can I do that? What good is the credit if the members can't use them ..right?

[Darkwaltz4]

ummm, the template edits are VERY important. if you have TMS they get installed automatically, otherwise you have to do it manually - either way those template edits need to be done or nobody will see anything.

the vbcredits hide hack is a premium addon, look on vbcredits.com for where and how to get it. the quiz hack can be found here on vborg

[haytham]

Yeah the only time the word credit shows up is if a user posts anything or replies. I tried editing the templates but for ex. couldn't find what I was supposed to in the navbar bec. it's not the default style. I'll try again tomorrow. It's late where I am now. Thanks for your help. Great mod.

[Darkwaltz4]

Sorry, but my hack isnt the cause of your errors. Look in your plugin manager for a plugin using the newthread_start hook - that would be the culprit. (none of vbcredits' plugins use that hook)

I would like to use vbCredits now for the vboookie, I used to use vCash so everyone has some vCash and are just starting to build up vCredits, is there a way to tyransfer all their vCash to the credits table so both totals are combined? Then I will switch the vBookie from using vCash to us credits only?

Any help would be great on this.

Cheers.

PS, I have tried using credits with vbookie and it works but of course until I find a way to transfer their current vCash totals it doesnt make sense to use credits on vBookie, they wouldnt be happy campers losing all the vCash they have so far earned.

[wsdeluxe]

Nice mod :)

Although one request (dont worry....its an easy one :p)

PayPal integration (for buying & selling credits).

well, i have a converter for it which i am releasing with 1.4, unless you are comfortable with running queries, you can run this:


UPDATE user SET credits = vbookie_cash


Nice mod :)

PayPal integration (for buying & selling credits).

there is already an addon for this, available on vbcredits.com

[Cybertims]

UPDATE user SET credits = vbookie_cash

Just so I understand, what will this query do exactly?

I have ran queries before, so no problem running it, just need to know what it will do.

Cheers again.

[Darkwaltz4]

its a quick way to set everyone's credits to their vbookie cash values, so you can then apply the vbookie/vbcredits addon

Hi Darkwaltz4,

really great mod and I am glad that you won award Mod Of The Month, congratulations!

I am waiting for version 1.4 (like others), but until then I have one question for you. The Transaction Log is always showing data corresponding only to the one particular user. What about new page as an option, where would be data corresponding to transaction logs for all users (only who received some, of course)?

In case of our forum (to be accurate, in case of our way of using vBCredits) there are only few new data for one week that are belonging to the transaction logs (and they are only points from admin, donations from users are not possible), so it would be great to have all transaction's data in one page for all users (only who received points) for summary and verification (and without some unbearable load to the server).

What do you think? It would be great... well, at least for me in my case :-). As far as I know there is no option like this in version 1.3 and I am not familiar with version 1.4.

[Darkwaltz4]

i have no real plan to do that, maybe for 1.5. you should see the changes for that in 1.4, you might change your mind.

[Vesica]

Addon: Point Rewards for Signature of the Week Mods. Both of them for people using both.

hi Darkwaltz4,

you mean the post award system? (the coin icon next to posts)

if so, 1.4 already has something like this, youll see

[PinkDaisy]

Yes, set money row to 'credits' in the IShop settings.


This does not work for me. I have installed the new Ishop and have had vbcredits working for a bit.. and changing the money row does nothing for me. :( Any idea how I can have my users buy these items with their credits??

Thanks!

[Darkwaltz4]

are you sure you are editing the IShop settings and NOT ICash? (you wont even need ICash installed)

[Charles_1]

i have no real plan to do that, maybe for 1.5. you should see the changes for that in 1.4, you might change your mind.
OK, I will wait until the 1.4 will appear.

But I have another request/question. Data in transaction logs are unchangeable - this is correct in principle (becouse they are representing all non-standard actions from another users). But as I wrote earlier, I am using this function (adding credits only by myself) only a few times per week and it is really important to be lucid (to other users especially). So in the case I assign some points to someone by mistake (and there is always some mistake from human element sometimes), I have to remove these points by the same method (there is no transaction fee, fortunately). So in the transaction log will be record of both actions and there is no chance to remove them or at least to change the comment (if the comment would be editable, it would be really great). And there could be some other reasons to edit comment - for example to type more detail note over time or to correct grammar mistakes.

Perhaps it is possible in version 1.4 already, I don't know.

[PinkDaisy]

1.4 introduces moderation for donations and post awards (and loans and savings deposits...) which include the ability to deny / reverse any of them via the ACP. there is also a marking system to indicate which posts have been awarded (turn offable of course) kind of like the post thanks hack, but expanding what the post award system does already. the post award system is completely expanded from 1.3

as for ishop, check your settings that they match mine. im using the latest versions of vbcredits and ishop available here on vborg (although if credits dont show up in the navbar its 1.4 code :-p). The settings is ALL i did to get it to use the credits.

[PinkDaisy]

Thanks. I'm just a dummy. It would have helped if I had enough credits to spend so I could test it! LOL

i just finished redoing the thread / post awards - so that it removes everything you gained when the post is deleted, merged, or moderated, and returned when the post is undeleted, approved, or copied. i am making sure this is absolutely perfect. all thats left is to update the interface for the bank and lottery (theyve changed a ton) but this should go quickly because its all my code and not vb integrations. i think at most two more days of me working at the speed ive been to put up a beta, and while thats going on ill clean up the acp and put in admin help and so on.

some stats for the impatient:
24 total DIFFERENT ways to earn credits. 13 of which can be "reversed" (that is, undone and you lose the credits you gained from it), and 12 that can be overridden on a per-forum basis (indivually mind you - see screenshot from earlier). also note that i got rid of a couple award types because they were "negations" in favor of the new system i have, so 10 are truly new. also in 1.3, only 1 was reversed and there were 3 that were negation awards. anyway, these are all *DONE* and functional http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif which was the hardest part of the system (as a points script, naturally) just the bells and whistles being upgraded :-p (bank, lottery, post award system, donations). also 23 options on the first page of options alone http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif (still cleaning up the other two pages)

will have more screenshots as i finish sections throughout the day, posted at vbcredits.com

you mean the post award system? (the coin icon next to posts)

if so, 1.4 already has something like this, youll see

I mean something like the information for the post award. If the that post is award, so in the end of that post (below the signature) have some information about the award like: This is a good post, +4 credits

[FatalBreeze]

Hello! Great Hack, but there is something bothering me..
While i can see the coin in postbit_legacy in the SHOWTHREAD, i cannot see the coin on showpost...

Can you tell me how to fix it please?

Thanks in advance :)

aha! thats interesting, thanks for pointing that out :) will be there in 1.4

[hiphopave]

about to install this great looking hack. Any ETA on the shop?

[PixelFx]

ETA on shop is after we release vBCredits v1.4, aka we'll have more info on that after this release :P

[muise]

when will 1.4 be released

[slyreptile]

Soon. It's all about the patience when getting something for free!

[silvermerc]

When will the shop or something be released?

[MThornback]

When will the shop or something be released?

He just got through saying after the Credits update.....

[Chase]

1,281 people have downloaded vbCredits from here. Why not show support to Dark and PixelFX for ALL OF THEIR HARD WORK and mark this hack as installed. They could easily charge money for this script but they choose not to.

Give these guys some support.

Keep up the great work!

[Darkwaltz4]

:D thanks for sticking up for me Chase...

anyway, the shop will be out soon after vbcredits 1.4. vbcredits 1.4 will hit beta stage in about 12 hours. however, if you want to try it you will have to check out vbcredits.com (I will also announce how you can get a copy for yourself early). after a few days the final version will be out, and then finally announced here. if you havent looked already, the build notes are on the front page and screenshots are in the vbcredits forum. vbcredits 1.4 is a major feature upgrade, worthy of being called 2.0 (but I dont want to call it that lol)

also, since vBCommerce (the shop) is around the corner... it would be *useful* if everyone would tell me what you would like to see in the shop. I have some basic ideas, but your suggestions are what help make it great :-p please tell me in the vbcommerce forum at vbcredits.com though, thanks

[Cybertims]

I think a great idea would be to have a Bank Robber feature, as the Bank holds members credits as such, it would be cool to have an option to attempt to rob the bank, if you fail you get banned for a period of time or something of that effect.

I would love the stealing add on, for the pure sake of having everything. As for the premium add ons, isn't the only one a real item shop mod, or is there more?

[Darkwaltz4]

premium addons: paypal support, and hide hack (charge credits to view content) both can be seen and played with at vbcredits.com, and details on obtaining them

vBCommerce (the shop) and vBCustomizer (colorful usernames, etc etc etc etc) are free

Great MOD. But would love to know how I can I delete the extra break in the navbar. I added the $credit_navbar in the navbar template and it gives an extar line between this and the rest of the content.

thanks a lot for your help.

[Ohiosweetheart]

Dumb question, I know, but did you check to see if there's a <br /> between the code for time/date, and the code for this mod?

[reza1217]

I have checked it but it seems to be in the $credits_navbar code as I have replaced it with "some text" and that's what it shows.

[reza1217]

The html page shows this code, note the <br /> code in the begining of the line. I just don't know which template to change to get rid of that <br />

<!-- / clock hack -->

<br /><a href="credits.php">Credits</a>: <b>13.5</b>
</div>
</td>

[Ohiosweetheart]

from looking at your attachment, it would be in the navbar template.

[reza1217]

anyway, could'nt find a better way to fix this. in the product xml file I took off the <br /> from "$credits_navbar .= '<br /><a href="credits.php'" and reinstalled with overwrite and it's gone now. Now I am happy.

{
$credits_navbar .= '<br /><a href="credits.php' . $session['sessionurl_q'] . '">' . $vbphrase['credits'] . '</a>: <b>' . vb_number_format($vbulletin->userinfo['credits'], $vbulletin->options['credits_decimals']) . '</b>';
}]]></phpcode>

how bout an automatic pm telling users they have gotten credit, we have this siet so we only give it out for certain things

[RollaJedi]

I'm a fairly new forum owner on VB and this whole 'buying and selling' items at a fictional 'store' is intriguing. These items, are they able to be created by me on a photo program? Also, will they actually have some kind of use? I mean, are you just buying fictional items just for fun or will there be some ability to let them do some kind of fuction? Thank you. :)

[Darkwaltz4]

users get PMs when they are donated to or awarded via posts. if it is not sending PMs, set a userid in the Sender Userid setting in the options. (usually 1 for the main admin). this has been in there since 1.0 :-p

Yes, although theres a variety of stuff you can eventually sell, but most will probably want an icon of some sort. Also, my itemshop will have programmable items, so they can have a use (there are some predefined types such as "paid subscription" "postbit icon" etc. Also please note that vbcredits is not an itemshop, but the addon I am building still is, vBCommerce

[vitrag24]

i think it'll be called spam then as users get credit for everyaction
but i would suggest better..
users shoud get pm for each 500/1000/5000 points and we can set manually for each usergroup that option.

[Veronica Vain]

my donation system doesnt work, can some one help me??

[RollaJedi]

I'm just making sure I'm correct here, but the vbcredits site is down currently for everyone, correct? I get this message:
I'm currently moving our site onto our new web server, this will improve speed issues we've been having. I'll try and have it backup asap. We'll also be doing a style update as well. To prep the site for our upcoming release of vBCredits v1.4 and other systems :D *gets all tingling its getting close*

PS: for support feel free to MSN message me at pixelfx@vbcredits.com or vbcredits@gmail.com for google talk messenger.

[slyreptile]

Yes, it's down right now.

additional ways to earn credit :

by doing threads in certain sections of the boards which you have implemented

any chance to make them pay certain credits before they download attachments (in certain sections only - not board wide)

threads in certain sections of the board? you mean apply overrides for values in different forums? its already in 1.3 (but getting a major upgrade for 1.4)

as for a download attachment system, theres addons coming for that. 1.4 introduces a credit award for uploading attachments (but not download management) so you can tax or award uploads

[68 Z-28]

So... I had installed Icash and now have vBCredits installed and working great.

Can I go through and completely uninstall iCash with no problems?

[Darkwaltz4]

yes, although you may wish to run the icash converter so your users dont lose any of their points :)

What Is Tms Just To Ask ? And How Might I Get It

[bazzup]

What Is Tms Just To Ask ? And How Might I Get It


Its an automatic template system which can be found here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=152931) on this site

[Spank]

How difficult would it be to charge credits to post in a particular forum, if the member has no credits then they can't post in that forum?

Edit: Ok I see that you can change the credits in each particilaur forium. So I can set it to say -20 to take credits away when posting, but if a user has 0 credits then it just puts there credits into minus figures. How can one prevent posting in a particular forum if the user doesn't have enough credits?

[Darkwaltz4]

that capability will be in the upcoming addon called vBCustomizer. vbcredits 1.4 is about to be available as a beta in an hour or so, check out vbcredits.com for details

[Spank]

ah ok. thanks. Great hack btw.

[catfish_pete]

Just installed VBCredits on VBulletin 3.6.8 – the instructions to modify postbit_legacy aren’t accurate – the “find” code can’t be found (default template).

Is this going to be fatal if we try running the system?

I'm using it on vBulletin 3.6.8, so if you want say, the edited template code I can give you it easily. Because I had no difficulty running it after upgrading and even readding the template changes.

[catfish_pete]

Yes please, if you have the modded postbit_legacy template, do post it!

[FredTT]

Nevermind :-)

[cheat-master30]

Postbit legacy eh? Sorry, don't use that template, therefore it's not hugely customised with the icon or AJAX stuff. Apologies though.

[bazzup]

Importing Style, Please Wait...

you dont import a style you import the xml file via admincp/plugins and products/manage products/ add import product

while the beta process is going on I am cleaning up mainly the ACP. provided the beta users dont find anything, should be only a few days for final release :-p

Am I required to pay you to test it???

:eek:

no, not at all! premium members on my site get a prerelease copy of the beta until the free stable version is completed. you are welcome to test any aspect of the latest version on the site for free too, if you needed extra credits for something just send me a PM and ill hook you up.

[scart3r]

Search Credits or credits and edit that phrase which has nothing else except for that word. This phrase I think:

$vbphrase[credits]

Can someone please tell me where I need to change this - so that I can make it say something other than 'credits'? ie. in which file/s?

Cheers,
Cindy

[Darkwaltz4]

In the phrase editor in the ACP, search for the global phrase credits. Apply a translation to it to change it to something else. 1.4 has a link to it :-p 1.4 should hit full version in a few days

[Darkwaltz4]

man you guys dont give up :-p do you know how much sleep i havent had in the last 3 days?

really though, know that i am working nonstop on this stuff. its big, and those who have already seen 1.4 know ive really outdone myself, and everything else will be just as good

[lasto]

to download the new beta u got to be a privledge member which costs money so basically you cant get a copy now till its released here unless u pay to become privledge which defeats the object.
Nice hack dont get me wrong but paying to test out betas is wrong.

[mikeylikesitz]

You are NOT paying to test betas, you are buying a premium membership, and as a benefit of that membership you are allowed to obtain the mod early and test it in its beta stage. As far as i know you would also be able to test other mods released there in thier beta stages. Just perks of being a premium member like any other sites with premium membership.

[Roxie]

I have 1.4 installed, should I ask questions here or on the other forum?

[Chase]

You'll wana ask questions and post bug reports over at vbcredits.com.

[PixelFx]

We're eyeballing both sites, but its easier for those helping test our beta scripts if they post on our site. Once we release final public stable version we'll be supporting the updated version both on this site and our site as best we can, although it does make it eaiser on our site.

As for charging for the script ARE not we just felt those that bought products already and or old/new premium accounts would be the best cadidates in a controlled group to test this mod before we release it to the masses here for free..

Imagine trying to support 202,000 members vs say 20 in a controlled beta...

So far dark is getting a few hours sleep, then he'll be working on making sure all our addons and converters are working with vbcredits 1.4 and or cleaning up the script its self for final release.

Those that want to help us know great, those that complain we don't have time to explain everything, you'll be getting it for free once stabke anyway in a few more days.

Props goes out to everyone that's used our script or us helping us iron out bugs so we can get this out faster :D

[asw]

I've installed 1.4 as well and will say that 'This Thing ROCKS'!

Get some rest Dark, we'll be patient! :up:

I have to be honest and say I also had this same thought when I read this thread earlier, I am happy to donate to a good script, but I wont pay a fee to beta test a script then offer feedback on the script to make it better then it gets released for free, that part I have difficulty getting my head around.

It's either a free script, or it isnt.

They're NOT charging for the Script. They are simply giving advanced BETA copies to folks who are generous enough to support them or have purchased their premium products. In case you haven't noticed, we don't have anyone else out there developing quality add-ons of this type. It takes a LOT of time, hard work, and money to get something like this going. They need support (and not just by clicking install). If you don't want to pay, then wait, it's that simple.

Quite true Harley77.

The release of the final product version will be free from what I have read on the vbCredits website. Some of us have chosen to pay/support this so that everyone can benefit from the use of this incredible system. To each their own I say. :up:

I don't mean to bash here but i cant believe that you would UNinstall a script because you didn't read the post fully or were too goofy to understand that they are NOT charging for the script. The level of support i've gotten from these guys rival any major mod i've bought for vbulletin and let me tell you, the others weren't free like these are. Again for a second time, they are promoting Premium Membership, simple as that. As a benefit of that membership you would get access to the beta versions of those mods as well as other perks of being a Premium Member! If you dont want to pay for a premiun membership, then by all means wait a little while for it to be released free like they said they would.

[Darkwaltz4]

Everyone, even if you would prefer to wait for the REGULARLY free version, you can ALL see and try vbcredits 1.4 on my site for the time being. for free >.< why are we arguing over this?

i can think of a certain other major points hack which is only offering the beta to users who buy branding free. until then, users test it live on the official site, and nobody seems to be mobbing him over it, yet hes been late for months on end :) we are following a similar release model, except with a little expansion of it.

as for those who uninstall over this...why? 1.3 is still free, and 1.4 will be free, and all the way to v7.9 will be free too!!! (if im still upgrading it in 30 years ;)) but...version 8.0, i dont know... lol

if i had no intention of having vbcredits be 100% free for the entire time in existence, i would not have initially uploaded it to vbulletin.org. 1) cause it breaks the rules 2) because i want everyone to be using the best, no matter what financial background they come from, because i started out as a broke 13 year old admin who had to pay back his mom for 4 months too :-p
