Major Additions - vBCredits - Ultimate Points System [Archive] - Page 8

Please help. I installed this point system for the 3.6.9 version. Now I am upgrading to 3.7 version. What do I do.

Should I reinstall the points system for the older version first, upgrade for vBulletin to 3.7 and then reinstall the point system for the newer version.

Please help.

Thanks

go and download the vb3.7 version of vbcredits 1.4rc2. basically follow the regular upgrade instructions, but go through the installation template edits to double-check your edits are still there (some have changed for vb3.7 specifically). you should not lose any settings or accounts if done this way (uninstalling will). if you need help PM me.

You said that the mod doesn't automatically add any template edits. But what about automatic file edits?

I was hoping to resolve this without having to give anyone admin access to my site. I'll reinstall again and see what the problem is. This time it would be on 3.6.10 instead.

And what exactly is TMS?

Thanks.

it does not make any automatic file edits; it uses the vbulletin plugin system. these are more like amendments made to the file at runtime only and can turned on and off; the actual files themselves remain exactly how vbulletin provided them.

like i said, you might have missed uploading the plugins file. there has yet to be any problems with it since rev1, but i would have to see your site if theres something new indeed.

also, TMS is the template modification system available here at vborg. i do NOT recommend installing it solely for a single hack; it is best for site-wide conversion to the TMS system, which you may or may not want to do in exchange for not doing a couple template edits from one hack.

I did as the installation told me to do with all the template edits. However, the blank page still occurs for my forumhome. The only time the forumhome page is restored is when I disable the modification via the manage products section of the acp.

Even you said you'd like to help me out, but I do not wish to provide any admin login info to my site so I have decided to uninstall this modification instead. Thanks again for your time.

...the other reason i would have liked to see your homepage, is that you may have indeed found a bug that i should know about to prevent this from happening to other people.

if you would like you could give me a separate admin account which you can delete when i am finished. just start out with plugin access so i can troubleshoot the homepage plugins. i would encourage you to even be talking to me via IM while I diagnose the problem, so you know fully what I would be doing. i have helped literally dozens of other sites such as yourself, and i hope i have proven myself completed trustworthy to everyone thus far.

in any case, i hope you change your mind in the future, but thank you for trying it anyway :)

I am installing the blog addons and when I try to import the xml file from the server, this is the message I get.

A conflict was detected in the bitfields. You cannot continue with the installation of this product until this has been fixed. The conflicts found were:
Bitfield Collision: prefixrequired = credits_cantearn

Is is because of the credits vbulletin cretids.

Thanks.

you are using the wrong vbcredits version with the wrong version of vb :p i would guess you are using vb3.7 with the vb3.6 version of vbcredits. the other version is linked in the top post :)

because you are using vb3.7, you need to be using the vbcredits for vb3.7. if you are using rc2 for vb3.6, then follow the instructions in the post i linked to switch versions, and get rid of the error.

I installed vbCredits and decided I didn't really have a need for it, so I uninstalled it. Now that I've upgraded to vB 3.7 I'm getting the Bitfield Collision: credits_cantearn error when I try to add other products. I've read the frustration with the repeated questions but didn't really see how any of those can help me. Should I install the new vbcredits and then uninstall it again?

Any thoughts?

One question. Do you release the final soon? Because i can?t use this version because the deleting of posts are not working with vbcredits. ;)

And the old version (1.3) don?t work on 3.7, i can?t update my vBulletin before update. :p

like i said, you can use the post award system from threads to adjust user credits after post maintenance. i havent been working on vbcredits itself lately as im working on the other addons.

however if its extremely important i can help set you up with the old code back in. it wont work very well when you do things like moving/merging/copying threads and posts, but at least the basic deletion stuff should be well enough, just not fully accurate...

Ok, i have tested the 1.3 in my 3.7 test board. It works without problems. Must I still follow something? Or change something to run the vbcredits error free?

I?m using only the following settings:

Do you think it will works without problems? In my test it works correct, but you are the author from the hack. ;)

One of the greatest Hack here !!
***INSTALLED*** :up:

One quick question, on my .... credits.php?do=banking page I have the below message for Bank Account and Loans. How do I change those high percentage numbers and 0 credit numbers. I have been looking in the admincp but not seeing where to change it. Members are using it like crazy to build up credits.

Bank Account
Minimum savings of 1,000 Credits required for 500.0% interest every 30 days. Deposits require pending time of 1 days before interest accrues, or a 5.0% early withdrawal fee applies. Deposits may be moderated. Maximum savings of Unlimited Credits allowed. Transaction fee of 0.5% applies on all transfers.

Loans
Amount must be between 0 and 0 Credits, and may be moderated. Minimum payments of 10.0% need to be paid back every 30 days to avoid late fees. Interest on outstanding balances is 1,500.0%. You may set up automatic payment plans. Your credibility rating may impact your interest rates or spending abilities.

Hi there,
I've tried to install VbCredits on 3.6.5 and every time I try to import the product I get:
Apply the Fix for Old vBulletins.txt for your installation of vBCredits to work on this version of vBulletin!

Yes I've done that file change, and I've reinstalled Vb from scratch again and it still doesn't work. Can someone please tell me how I can fix this?
Cheers,

You reinstalled vb from scratch?? If you were going to do that you should have put the newest version or something 3.6.6+

to bypass that, in plugins/credits_installer.php find and remove

if (!method_exists(new vBulletinHook, 'fetch_hookusage'))
{
print_dots_stop();
print_cp_message('Apply the Fix for Old vBulletins.txt for your installation of vBCredits to work on this version of vBulletin!');
}

then you should be able to install

It now works the exact way I wanted it. :up:

Savings Interest Rate: 5 to 0.05
Loan Interest Rate: 15 to 0.15

I answered in the other thread, but if anyone is wondering the same thing:

There are many integrations which use vbcredits, found listed here (as well as links to download those addons)
http://www.vbcredits.com/projects/vbcredits/index.php
There are also hacks which can use vbcredits simply by setting a value in the third party hack's settings. I generally dont maintain a list of such hacks because they can be made without me knowing about them :p but if you have something in mind ask and I will try and point you in the right direction.

I have opened up the demos for the addons to guests, so you dont have to register to my site to check them out (but if you want to ask something about it or give your feedback you should do so there)
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/commerce.php
also opened up my vbcustomizer demo to guests as well
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/customizer.php?do=usercp
both are strictly nonfunctional for the time being.

I have also recieved a little help with the financial burden of developing this stuff sooner without going broke :D a little more details in the new announcement on my site. basicially, im now under contract to have both vbcommerce and vbcustomizer completed within 3 months. just thought everyone might be interested in that.

Hi,

After an Update does all the template edits have to be redone?
Is there a simple way to update the forum version, revert the templates but still have all the template edits for VbCredits

Thanks

Darkwaltz4

06-28-2008, 06:32 AM

updating the forums does not automatically revert your template edits, but they may show up as needing to be updated. in those cases you should check out the template comparison tool included in vb to see highlighted what exactly needs to be changed, and then merge the two together. there isnt a way to preserve vbcredits template edits in the current version, but this is a goal for the next version.

Darkwaltz4

07-08-2008, 05:48 AM

check the following:
is credit earning enabled globally?
are you or the person you are looking at a member of a usergroup NOT blocked from vbcredits?
are you or the person you are looking at set to enabled to earn credits in the user editor?
is the awards you are trying to earn set at something above 0?
are you in a forum that is set to have credit earning disabled? or an override for that forum for your group and that action as 0?

Unfortunately, I have not tried to install on vB3.5, nor did I consider it during development. While I did intend to backgrade it a little, it would not be until I was at a version I felt was complete, and at very low priority. Sorry >.< installing outside of the recommended versions is pretty much at your own risk, and I think you should uninstall until there is a version I deem suitable.

ArchangelX

08-20-2008, 07:47 PM

Thanks a bunch Darkwaltz, I should have just asked in the first place. I tried to search for it, but the vb software doesn't let you search for stuff like "3.5.x".

I'm currently using iCash, but I was always hoping to upgrade this. My forum has a ton of custom work, and until vB hits the big 4.0 I wasn't planning on redoing it because it would require a seriously huge amount of work.

Please keep us older 3.5 guys in your thoughts, as there's currently not many solutions out there for us. Thanks.

Darkwaltz4

08-20-2008, 09:08 PM

well, vborg has this nice little directory
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=198

and then you can select the version you want to go through, and search specifically in them - no need to search for the version numbers.

vB3.5/6/7 (and presumably, 8) are for the most part similar, and not that impossible to up upgrade between them. Also, most hacks from 3.5 will work okay on 6/7, just not going backwards (of course, some hacks offer specific versions which you should always take advantage of). The point is, itll be just as much work upgrading to vb4 from vb3.5 than it will be from vb3.8, so go ahead and upgrade to vb3.7 for now to take advantage of what you are missing (hacks included) - besides vb4 still seems quite a bit away.

Yes, if you want to use some of our newer addons. You will not lose any of your previous settings or credit amounts if you follow the directions for upgrading.

I've tried to disable the loan option -- and lower the award system, but still spending options are disable to some users.

Oh, how can I check on the balance of a central account? And is there a way that I can raise the value of that account? Again, thanks for your support.

Because users already have such poor ratings, you have to adjust your bad credit score threshold in the global bank settings, or else it will still keep dropping people's access despite loans disabled. Try putting like -99999999.

Currently the central account cant be directly manipulated (unless you know your way around your database :p) but theres a trick to seeing how much is in it. Enable your admin usergroup to use the post award system with no limits (-1 for all 4 values). In the global specialty settings set to spend from central account. When you go to use the post award system within a thread, the available credits will display the exact amount that is in the central account.

does this work for vbulletin 3.7.3?

Yes, but you have to use the one here:

For some reason a few users credits are not counting when they post. I have checked the usergroup options and they seem fine but still their credits are not increasing. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you

Thank you

Check those users' profiles in the admin control panel. Their Can Earn permissions might be set to no. Also, you might have some forums turned off for posting, or overrides to 0 for certain usergroup / forum combinations.

vBCredits contains useful descriptions and admin help throughout the admin control panel. Where it is missing or unobvious, you are welcome to ask us here. vBCredits is not yet the final version, so it is missing that sort of thing.

Hi Dark,

I've just transfer the hosting for my forum, for some reason -- the vbcredit is now missing an "award system option". Do you know what I've missed while transfering the host?

do you mean the post award system golden coin? What version of php is your new host?

yes, post award system -- we currently use php 4.x (i'm not sure the exact version, is it the cause of the problem?)

:D for anyone else, if you are using vb3.7/8 you should be using the vb3.7 flavor of vbcredits (linked in the top post). If you upgrade from vb3.6 you need to upgrade vbcredits to the corresponding version as well, otherwise you will get bitfield collisions on anything you try to import (not just vbcredits)

Is there anyway to show the total amount of credits earnt on the site. Id prefer it count the total number of points earnt all together and disregard any credits spent or taken away but if it can only count how many credits there currently are on the site then thats fine as well.

I have another question, hopefully, this will be my last one :-)

A problem occur, am not sure whether it's bug or because I set it wrong in some section, but almost everyday, there will be random member have credit increase tremendously (and this could be an active or inactive member). I have to manually reset it back in the user option from ACP. Can you help? Again, thanks for all your support.

How much tremendously? did you enable unlimited access of the post award system to your regular members?

No :-/ if you enable the display of credits in your memberlist settings, you can see a column of credits for all users that way (plus with sorting :p)

no, only mod can use the post award system -- I set 100 credits for all members at base, and within couple hours, credit of a random member can increase up to 10k -- not sure why

On the first nav template edit I'm getting this message:

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

The conditional on line 23 appears to be missing its end tag (</if>). The template will not function properly unless this is fixed.

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

hi,

I tried installing the plugin just now on a 3.6.4 install, but the product manager keeps asking me to perform the Fix for old versions. I have gone through all the setup steps in the right order, and I even double-checked the changes I made, but it still keeps saying this.

Any ideas?

-edit-
Hmm, in the version I downloaded from this thread there was only 1 fix, on includes/adminfunctions.php

Here (http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2525&postcount=1) I found a whole other Fix. Trying that now.

edit forum/plugins/credits_installer.php and find

if (!method_exists(new vBulletinHook, 'fetch_hookusage'))

replace with

if (!method_exists(new vBulletinHook, 'fetch_hookusage') AND false)

the fix is no longer relevant, but i forgot to remove this check. didnt think anyone was using such an old version still :p

I uploaded the contents of "upload" folder and imported the xml file successfully. The Admin panel now shows vbCredits but the credits are not showing on the forum itself. Member profile does not show any credits system

if you followed the installation instructions, it would show you that you missed the template edits step

Need an Addon making for vbcredits - it can be stand alone but needs to work with vbcredits as this is the system i will be using for points.

What im after is the abilty to restrict members from downloading attachments in certain sections as i dont want it board wide.

1 - pay to download attachments (certain sections only) rar/zips (not jpegs etc)
2 - Pay uploader a set fee for uploading attachments (certain sections only) rar/zips
3 - no credit no download (must be secure so no one gets stuff for free )
4 - Stats page addon will be discussed when job taken.

As simple as that really - Need it to work only on attachments such as rars/zips - not jpgs

Contact me with timeframe on how long to code etc and with price.I pay fee on completion and can supply refs of coders ive used in the past.

i have half the admin functions for vbcredits II done, just the other half and some actions and displays to go. should be done in a few days, but before its perfect ill be needing a bunch of people willing to test it while i smooth out the phrases and ux effects.

priority will be given to big boards wanting to assess the performance and those of you who've been with vbcredits the longest :) i dont know how many ill want yet, but details will be announced on my site as i get closer to finishing.

I'm using version 3.5 and installed this and completed the instructions there were in the Old VB text file, and the post here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1747945&postcount=1840) but now I am getting a query error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.4:

Invalid SQL:

Any suggestions?

sorry, this addon was not developed for nor tested on vb3.5, and probably will not be as it has not been updated in years and has been EOLd by vb itself.

Please help! Where do I find my settings chosen in the MySQL database? I'm trying to find how many points I had set each activity to. How many for creating a poll, replying, starting a thread, etc. Because of an upgrade, the whole vbCredits menu won't display, so I'm trying to find it using the SQL data. Are they named like "credit_ownthreadview_label"? I can't even perform a big search because the host won't allow long running processes. Thanks.

After 1 year offline ive reopened my forum. Ev its good but ive got this error

This installation of vBCommerce is pending activation - if it has been over five minutes, please ensure you have a valid license at http://www.vbcredits.com

As i remeber i had vbcommerce licensed for forum.cfg.ro

can you please advice

Best Regards
_______________

Check my name for releases, we released vbcommerce v2.0 (vb3.8.x) which no longer requires license activation to use. It also features unlimited shops and other. I'm currently working on an update for vbcredits.com site then will post more apps for users and updated item types.

You will also need vbcredits v2.0 for vbulletin 3.8.x for that version of vbcommerce which was also released under my name.

This systems above are the original systems released by vbcredits.com and PixelFX Studios. And have nothing to do with Dbtech and are no longer supported by darkwaltz4. Although I'm doing my best to support them when possible.
