Your instructions say:
3) If you do NOT have TMS installed, or if TMS fails on your custom templates, apply the 14 Template Edits to the 10 Templates listed below.
What 14 edits are you referring too? I did the 10 that was shown in the instructions. do I need to do 14 more?

That is why Im not switching to vbcredits just yet. They keep saying their working on a gift shop like vbplaza but its been almost a year if Im not mistaken and still no gift shop.

I guess i will wait until they have gift shop ! thanks for the infos .

vBCommerce 1.0 still in process i believe but seem very long .

It says do the 14 total edits to the 10 total templates. Some templates have more than one edit.

I was wondering whats the difference between vbcredits and vbplaza

vbplaza is no longer available for free. vbplaza comes with a preset shop. vbcredits has all of the points-earning features of vbplaza plus more. read the feature lists, I actually havent studied vbplaza closely enough to be more specific.

Done, Thank you.

the site is back up, so you can download that addon in the thread I linked in my response :)

^You also forgot that vB Credits at current is very secure, and has no known security issues while vB Plaza had security issues and multiple people tried and failed to fix the modification...

Well, this is a nifty mod and I like it very much, but what do I do with it? I do not see anything to spend the credits on. I saw a casino mod that allowed the use of this money system, but what else is there? Is there a store of any kind?

Hi all,

i have installed the plug in, but one thing not working is when i enable this option below... and click donation title... i get this message: No Phrases Matched Your Query

What is the problem?

Enabling this option will send a private message to users who receive credits outside of normal earning means. Please input the username of the user that these PMs are to be sent from. To alter or translate these messages, use the following links:

[Donation Title] [Donation Body]
[Award Title] [Award Body]

Is anybody working on getting VBCredits intergrating with ibProArcade v2.6.7+ ?

I know there was something that worked with the older version of ibProArcade, but I dont know who or what :o

I'd like to deduct tokens for members playing/saving scores etc....

Many Thanks to VBCredits and ibProArcade for two of the best mods around :up:

This is a confirmed bug in the links... try searching for text instead. The phrases are still there, just no longer in the GLOBAL group. Also, if you hover over the links you should see the variable name for the phrases, which if you search for them in the phrase system it should find them in their new phrasegroups.

Hopefully soon.

i have posted pre-edited files for 2.6.7a+ a couple days ago in this thread:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=153822

if you were using the old version, just apply the file edits. full installs need all instructions followed, not just the file edits.

you can find addons that i have made integrations with listed on this page
http://www.vbcredits.com/projects/vbcredits/index.php
note that ones that just need a setting change to use credits arent listed, but there are quite a few.

Their making sure the core script is as perfect as possible first. Too much hinges on vBCredits being completely stable. Something a lot of the other point systems didn't do starting out.

As soon as its out and I see good reviews Ill be downloading it. From what the author writes and from what I see here and their site it looks very promising.

Just got this installed and am very impressed. I can't wait until vbcommerce comes out, I will be installing that right away! I also appreciate that you guys take so much time to bug test, makes me very confident in installing the product!

One quick question, this may not be possible, but thought I'd ask. on the post count credits, is there any way to make posts in a specific forum give you more credits than another foruM? As in if they are posting in one forum they get only 5 credits per post, but are posting in one of the other forums they get 15 per post?

Or the other question I guess if I wanted to make posts in a specific forum not count for their credits I could jsut turn off posts counting for that forum?

Thanks!

Out of pure curiosity, you mentioned the next version of vB Credits (I think v2) earlier, so what exactly is there to add? I mean, most possible uses are probably covered by vB Commerce and Customiser, or Limiter, or whatever...

Darkwaltz4
05-22-2008, 10:17 PM
i want to repeat i wont be working on v2 for quite some time as there are other pressing hacks to finish :p probably not until the end of the year.

but theres some features people have wanted that require changes to the core of vbcredits such as logs. as ive been developing vbcredits ive been adding on the different requests and now that they are all there the system could really use an optimization over all of them (instead of just adding things in here and there). also a lot of the mini-hacks inside vbcredits like the bank, lottery, and post award system really could use more controls and stuff so i might remove them to addon status to make them more optional as well as more things to do with them. finally of course theres some new stuff to infuse credit support into that has been introduced in vb3.7 :D

so as you can see, vbcredits is far far far from finished, at least to me

Great Mod!

2 questions..

1. Where can I set the starting credit for a new user? I couldn't find it either in admincp settings or group setting, and the new users start from 100 credits

2. Where in admincp do I decide which group (admin included) can give awards for specific post? and When a group is allowed to do that, where can the award be given?

- Post Award System
* AJAX Through Thread or Profile
What's that option? can I assign awards if I like a post?

thanks a lot

integrations with those hacks dont exist. also, the backend for producing stats or statements will not be there until the next major release of vbcredits after 1.4 final.

If you are talking about the post award system, the old setting was split into 4 different limits which you must set. to give the same power to admins as they used to have, use all -1 (unlimited).

All of the settings you are looking for can be found in the usergroup editor. The new registration credits is the Induction award. The post award system is a way for you to grant (or take away) credits out of thin air basically, and the limits to prevent it from getting out of hand (or unlimited for trusted groups like admins) are also in the usergroup settings.

The new registration credits is the Induction award.:

It is set to 1 but for that group always starts from 100 :(
any reason why does it happen?

What about the credits.gif image? Where should it pop out?

keep in mind that if you have email verification, users actually are inducted into two usergroups. first, the "users awaiting email confirmation" and then "registered users". I recommend putting 0 for awaiting confirmation, and 1 for registered users. Also to avoid confusion make sure induction is unchecked from the applicable negation awards in the global award settings for vbcredits.

credits.gif shows up for the post award system only. if a group has a nonzero limit available it will appear and be the icon for the ajax menu that pops up.

Hi, about the induction It is set "0" to all the group and "1" to the "new user" group, but they still start from 100 when they sign up. Is there any table of the vbcredits menu where this 100 credits could be set on?

About the "nonzero limit", sorry, I cannot find it! This nonzero limit should be set for the usergroup (adminsitrator, moderators) who will assing the awards?

I go to VbCredits/ Manage usergroup awards/ usergroup
I can find the 4 sections "vBCredits Awards", "vBCredits Permissions", "Donations and the Post Award System", "Banking, Loans and Drawings", but I don't see the nonzero limit area
thanks again for your help.

05-26-2008, 04:56 PM
nope, you must have missed one which still has the default 100 induction amount.

the last 4 settings in the donation and post award system block of settings need to have nonzero values (that is, values that are not 0...) if you want unlimited, put -1 for all 4.

I'll let you know about the induction, now it is all set like you told me to be.
ABout the credits.gif image, I put "-1" in the last 4 settings, either for the administrator usergroup setting, and the user usergroups setting. So technically I should see this image (link is in the folder www.mywebsite.com/forum/images/buttons/credits.gif) but i don't see it..

code in my postbit legacy should be correct also..
<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>

Hey Dark, i've just come across a small problem. I've set all of the awards to 0 as it turns out that members who make new threads get 2 points and if they reply to threads then they get 1 point without me allocating such points in the first place :(

I've been spending the past 2 hours trying to see how they're getting 2 points for new thread using a secondary account and can't seem to figure it out.

I want to offer them 5 points for new threads so is it worth me setting that to 3 (3 + the random 2 making it 5) and 1 point for posting replies so leaving that option to 0 cause of the random 1 point out of the blue for posting replies? As this might be a bug with the current version?

If it's not a bug then could you please help me solve this little problem? :D

Thanks

k, thank you, now I get how it works, but for some reason I still cannot see the credits.gif image. I checked all the templates edit too (as in the install txt file..) but nothing, this image doesn't want to appear..
Meanwhile I changed in the template the condition to show the credits image, and I used the same as the "infractions" one. So now the credits.gif image shows up to the admin (because the infractions one is active) and the link related (http://www.myspace.com/forum/credits.php?p=xxxx) actually works fine.
So the problem should really be in the "if" condition.
If you have any other suggestion where the problem could be in the original If condition I'd really appreciate it.

Another little problems I've found is in Vbadvance:
if i click on the "check" link in the welcome box in vbadvance the link is
http://www.mywebsite.com/credits.php?do=banking
and of course I get an error page.
If I enter the forum and I click on "check" in the welcome box of the forum the link is
http://www.mywebsite.com/forum/credits.php?do=banking
and it works fine.


any tip how could I solve this problem?

Quick Question, If I have someone a part of a few usergroups and each usergroup has a different award amount for certain things is that a conflict? I have my basic group as 50 for referrals but if they're in the VIP group they get 500 credits for a referral, but I'm only seeing the 50 be put into their account unless I remove them from the basic group.

In your vBCredits settings, there is a area that ask you to put in all files that need to be associated with vBAdvanced. trying typing in file name, which I think is vbcredits.php. I'm at work right now, so I can' give you a more definite answer.

Thanks for the mod, I am using this with the ibProArcade.

I added a scheduled task to run every hour but am getting more out of it than I'd like. My goal is to increase the jackpot for every arcade game by 5 every hour. Here's my code.

$Jackpot = $vbulletin->db->query("SELECT * FROM vBull_games_list");
while($row = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($Jackpot)) {
$vbulletin->db->query_write("update vBull_games_list set jackpot = jackpot + '5'");
}

Rather than going up by 5, it is increasing by 40. Since I only have 8 games installed right now, it appears to by multiplying 5 x 8; is it running 8 times for each game?

What change should I make to have it only run once per game? Any idea?

Thank you for your time.

EDITED:

Well, this appears to have fixed my problem; I think there is an easier way. I remember doing an update similiar to this once upon a time, but I can't remember how.

$Game = 0;
$Jackpot = $vbulletin->db->query("SELECT * FROM vBull_games_list");
while($row = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($Jackpot)) {
$Game = $Game + 1;
$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE vBull_games_list SET jackpot = jackpot + '1' WHERE gid = '$Game' ");
}

I installed this mod and love it. However, at the bottom of every page is a piece of text that says "vBCredits (http://www.vbcredits.com/) v1.4 Copyright ?2007 - 2008, PixelFX Studios (http://www.pixelfxstudios.ca/)". This is nopt a problem. What is a problem is that when the links are clicked, it goes to these sites and leaves mine.

What I want to do is make the links open a new browser window. I cannot seem to find in the templates or phrases where these links are set. Can somebody please tell me how to make a modification to this so I can just add "target='_blank'" to these links?

Meanwhile I changed in the template the condition to show the credits image, and I used the same as the "infractions" one. So now the credits.gif image shows up to the admin (because the infractions one is active) and the link related (http://www.myspace.com/forum/credits.php?p=xxxx) actually works fine.
So the problem should really be in the "if" condition.
If you have any other suggestion where the problem could be in the original If condition I'd really appreciate it.


What version of PHP are you using?

i am waiting for a german language file. anyone here who have one ?

The german translation can be found on my site

can someone please inform me how i configure vbcredits so that it doesnt deduct credits when people are not active on the forum

In your global award settings make sure that Activity is NOT checked as an Applicable Negtion award

i add the memberinfo temp and this no to be displayed ..
what i to do ?

I'm sorry, I do not understand your problem?

Im thinking about adding this feature to my board, the only thing im wondering is my members are quite compedative and have built there casino $$ up quite a bit, now what would happen to that when I add this, is there a converter for that, or a process, or is this not compadable with that?

Thanks,
RON

The casino can be configured to work with vbcredits. I forget if the hack had its own internal points system or not, but if so I will make something to convert from it and then you select to have it use credits.

Thanks for the mod, I am using this with the ibProArcade.

I added a scheduled task to run every hour but am getting more out of it than I'd like. My goal is to increase the jackpot for every arcade game by 5 every hour. Here's my code.

$Jackpot = $vbulletin->db->query("SELECT * FROM vBull_games_list");
while($row = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($Jackpot)) {
$vbulletin->db->query_write("update vBull_games_list set jackpot = jackpot + '5'");
}

Rather than going up by 5, it is increasing by 40. Since I only have 8 games installed right now, it appears to by multiplying 5 x 8; is it running 8 times for each game?

What change should I make to have it only run once per game? Any idea?

Thank you for your time.

EDITED:

Well, this appears to have fixed my problem; I think there is an easier way. I remember doing an update similiar to this once upon a time, but I can't remember how.

$Game = 0;
$Jackpot = $vbulletin->db->query("SELECT * FROM vBull_games_list");
while($row = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($Jackpot)) {
$Game = $Game + 1;
$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE vBull_games_list SET jackpot = jackpot + '1' WHERE gid = '$Game' ");
}

You could just do this:


$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games_list SET jackpot = jackpot + 5");


and use whatever number you want instead of 5 to increase every jackpot by.

I installed this mod and love it. However, at the bottom of every page is a piece of text that says "vBCredits (http://www.vbcredits.com/) v1.4 Copyright ?2007 - 2008, PixelFX Studios (http://www.pixelfxstudios.ca/)". This is nopt a problem. What is a problem is that when the links are clicked, it goes to these sites and leaves mine.

What I want to do is make the links open a new browser window. I cannot seem to find in the templates or phrases where these links are set. Can somebody please tell me how to make a modification to this so I can just add "target='_blank'" to these links?

This footer cannot be changed from its current form; I can only move it around for you. Branding free is available however.

I found how to turn of loans but now I have 2 new questions:

1) Is negative awards working yet? Last time I asked Dark said it was turned off for the last release.

2) Where is the log of all member transactions? I can't seem to find that anywhere.

Thanks for the help.

1) all negation awards are working except for post/thread awards. Those do nothing.

2) You can use the moderate donations/award link in the acp to see all of that, or if you have the usergroup permission to view all user's transaction logs, a Check link will show up next to users' account amounts to take you to their specific log


The release notes mentions that VBC can be used in conjunction with other mods, does anyone know of such mods?

On my site is a list of some addons that I have to integrate with other popular hacks. There are more that I generally dont track which you can just use a setting within that hack to make it use credits (for example the casino)

Make sure...

-you are looking at a style which you successfully applied the template edits to
-the global display options are set to everyone, or you belong to a group that can see private credits if set to private
-you and the person you are looking at dont belong to a group set as blocked from vbcredits
-the group the person you are looking at isnt set to hide credit totals
-the forum you are in isnt set to hide credit totals

Seriously man... don't pay me any attention. I have installed maybe 40 hacks in the last 2 months and every one of them have gone somewhat smooth until now. I somehow managed to neglect all 14 template edits haha. Now that I think back I had to leave and I was supposed to remember to come back and do it. I didn't. I thought I did though... ugh.

Sorry man it's all working now. Thanks alot for a great job!!!

1) so if I delete posts and threads that are irrelevant, it won't deduct their points? that's too bad.

2) with logs, I was hoping there was a page where you can see all logs from all members and not a specific member. Maybe another addition in the future?

thanks for you help.

06-09-2008, 08:36 PM
1) Yes, for now until 1.4 final when that will be restored

2) Thats why I offered that you check out that ACP link which has all of the transactions between all members in one place. It will be expanded in the future in the next major release of vbcredits after 1.4 final

The answer is related to both of you.

The post award system is what you are looking for to award posts directly on threads. In the usergroup options there is a section for each group to set limits for the power to award credits out of thin air. Using a value of 0 in any limit will restrict access completely, or use -1 to make one of the limits be ignored (and -1 for all 4 for unlimited use). I recommend that unlimited be given to trusted groups only such as admin, and should you choose to grant it for anyone else, think carefully about the limits you want to impose or it will get out of hand very quickly. In the specialty settings of vbcredits is the option to publicly display the post awards under the respective posts.

Question: How do you take away points when you delete a post from a member?..

Ex:i member spammed a thread and received 5 points how do i take away the points when i delete the post.

The main reason vbcredits 1.4 is still rc is because of some bugs in negating credits made in posts and threads. To avoid errors I opted to remove that section of the code while I fix the problems. So for now deleting posts and threads wont affect credits, but you can use the post award system explained in my previous post for the time being as a second step during regular maintenance, accessible right there on the posts.

a quick way to disable the bank for everyone is to set the registered days requirement in the global banking settings to something really high like 99999. Otherwise to disable for specific groups, set the maximum savings amount to 0 in the applicable usergroups in the usergroup manager.

your number of referrals per referral point needs to be 1 or higher (vb3.7 introduces some useful stuff for validating this now yay, but not in the existing version of vbcredits) in your global vbcredits settings.

note that a "referral point" is not a credit award and if you dont want to award for referrals set 0 in the usergroup settings with the rest of the vbcredits awards.

1. can members set up their own shops.
2. can members buy/sell/trade
3. can we or could we setup a VBCREDIT ebay style bit aswell lol

Can we set up a main central warehouse/supplier.

Where we can sell goods, items, and members can then stock their shop, and or buy and sell etc etc

Crikey im getting carried away.

Okies back to basics,, could it be configured, to show a link in postbit of users, goods/items bought, and or sold...
Can it be configured so that we can GIFT an item to another member.

looking at vbexperience, i dont see a way to bridge it without hacking something. not to mention they kind of look like they are shaping up to compete with me :p I will put together a converter though for anyone who wants to use the points they have in vbexperience in vbcredits...

It is already set as 1, the problem is there...

at the top of the forum i get this messageand in the middle, I get this

actually I just checked the files, and your problem is that you set the interest interval to 0 when it also needs to be 1 or higher :D in the global bank settings.

If you dont want to give interest to users, set 0 as their interest rate in their usergroup settings instead.
If you dont want certain groups to have any savings or loans set 0 for the appropriate limits in the usergroup settings (maximum savings and/or maximum total loans)
If you dont want anyone to use the bank at all, you can put a really high number for the number of days required before the bank can be accessed, in the global bank options (like 99999)

Before i download this, i just want to know.
What are the credits actually used for? can you buy things with it???

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 would like to encourage you to continue discussion of vbcommerce at my site instead of here; this thread is for vbcredits and the staff might object (and have before).
But to answer your questions: yes to everything that you asked, except it goes a bit deeper than that :p

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.

There are options which allow you to set negative credits for some actions as a punishment, so go back through the usergroup options and make sure no actions are set to take away credits (no numbers have - next to them in the boxes). Then, recalculate the credit totals.

hmm, tbh i havent looked at vbexperience yet. From what I understand both can somewhat be used next to each other as they kind of do separate things, although vbexperience is more for weighting actions vs other actions, wheras vbcredits is about earning for explicit use later, not as a score or something.

Hi,

I have the system installed and everything it working fine. But for some reason i see that when a user creates a thread and then replies to their own thread the credit count does not increase, this is further clarified by statement under posting credit in the usergroup settings.

My question is, can i some way get the system to add a credit when a user replies to their own thread, or maybe removing the slice of code that prevents the count increase.

EDIT: I found the code in credits_admin.php to allow this, but thats only for mass updates, nothing in the realtime situation which i assum is credits.php

Thanks

there is a specific award in the usergroup settings regarding what you get for a post in your own thread :) sounds like you have it set to 0

Your right.. this section in user manager: "Your Thread Posting Credit: Applied for all valid posts made in a thread which they originally created." i was mis-reading this, and then when doing an update for "Posting Credit", "New Thread Credit" & "Your Thread Posting Credit" was tipping the credits over the post count, but now re-looking at it i can see why. Thanks :)

First of all I want to say that vBCredits is great hack. I am working on upgrade process from vB3.6 to vB3.7 (which means also upgrade of vBCredits v1.3 to v1.4rc2) and I just bumped into one unpleasant feature/bug of vBCredits v1.4rc2.

In vBCredits v1.3 there are two options regarding earning reputation points:
1. Positive Reputation Credit (Awarded when these users receive positive reputation.)
2. Negative Reputation Credit (Awarded when these users receive negative reputation. You probably want this to be negative as a penalty.)
So when I recalculate user credits in "Update Counters", users will get correct amount of credits (positive amount of credits for positive reputation and negative amount of credits for negative reputation).

In vBCredits v1.4rc2 there is only one option regarding earning reputation points:
1. Received Reputation Credit (Applied when the user receives reputation. Can be set to multiply against the amount of reputation received.)
In "Configure Award Settings" is also "Award Negation Multiplier" which is responsible for realtime earning negative amount of credits for negative reputation (that works fine), but when I use "Mass Credit Updater" for recalculate amount of credits earned for reputation points, then every reputation is awarded by positive amount of credits - by other words every neutral (from users without possibility to spread reputation points yet) and even negative reputation is awarded by positive amount of credits :-(. Darkwaltz4, please, Is it real bug or there is something else for adjusting this?

When installing this, does the section have to be named vbcredits, or can we name it something else? Same thig with "credits", can we change it to "coins" or "cash" or any other custom names?

Also, I know that the same post keeps getting linked in response to this, but I fail to find the answer in the post or on the vbcredits website, but what can the credits be used for? vbcredits just does the points, but vbcommerce is what can turn points into money to be spend on little user-made shops on the forums, right? How do users go about making these shops, and where are members' owned items stored or displayed?

Hi, I just got one question before I'd like to install this addon.

Is there a system in the hack or an extra addon which people could use there points to promote themselves.

I currently run a site where people get extra content when they are promoted. After a month they get sent back to their original group just like a subscription. So is it possible for the members to use up points to get promoted?

sounds like a bug.. ill look into it and post to my bug tracker if you havent already.

as for the award change in reputation, giving negative rep is awarded as (negation multiplier) * (positive reputation award), if reputation is checked as an applicable negation award in the global award settings for vbcredits.

i have big problem.
after i upgrde the credits they strat to go crazy.
members get credits for no reason at all.
what to do?

sounds like you enabled the post award system unlimitedly for regular members. if you send me an admin login i can take a look at your settings to make sure.

When installing this, does the section have to be named vbcredits, or can we name it something else? Same thig with "credits", can we change it to "coins" or "cash" or any other custom names?

Also, I know that the same post keeps getting linked in response to this, but I fail to find the answer in the post or on the vbcredits website, but what can the credits be used for? vbcredits just does the points, but vbcommerce is what can turn points into money to be spend on little user-made shops on the forums, right? How do users go about making these shops, and where are members' owned items stored or displayed?

Generally "vBCredits" does not appear on the public forum area except in the copyright line. The term for points "Credits" is a phrase and can be easily changed in your language manager. This phrase is also linked to in the very first option in the global vbcredits settings.

vBCredits is a points system. You can use these points for pretty much anything, only some of which ive made myself for everyone else. You dont have to wait for me to integrate them with something else, and theres more to spending points than for postbit icons :p Theres even a few other existing shops which can be configured to use credits if you really wanted. For full list of whats already available and whats in development (as well as where you can suggest more) go to vbcredits.com

I have a problem, i created a thread and it awards points with no problem, but when i deleted the thread the points was not deducted,
I have the negation award= -1

whats wrong

in 1.4rc1 there were some fatal bugs with the negation of post/thread awards. as a temporary fix i removed that functionality so that you could at least delete that stuff again without problems. it will be returned fixed in the final version.

Darkwaltz4
07-04-2008, 04:00 AM
3 billion? im pretty certain ive gotten it up to like 100+ places and i just stopped trying to get any higher. It is possible that the exact max is specified by your mysql server settings for the signed DOUBLE datatype.

I think the only way to allow upwardly more is to require you to have a arbitrary precision math module installed with your php, but thats server intensive and personally unncessary - i recommend that you consider scaling your award/cost amounts down a bit instead.

Do you have any publicly joinable usergroups at your forum? Because if so, I heard that might be how they got so many credits, so you should scale down all the usergroup credit options and not just the default ones.

And for that serves all the points they earn?

aceofspades
07-06-2008, 03:33 PM
Hi,

Quick question. How many queries does this add? Is there a way to track if the users points have gone up or down since the last point given?

I.e If user had 10 points and had negative rep added or something that would remove points, would there be a way to indicate that points have been lost, perhaps with a red arrow down or something.

Darkwaltz4
07-06-2008, 05:37 PM
currently this adds 1 query per area anywhere where an award occurs. for example, during posting is 1 extra query, profile viewing is 1 query, new thread 1, etc. nowehere however is it multiplied by say posts, so always the barest minimum, which actually affects your second question...

right now there is no general log for regular earning in order to track that sort of thing. at the very least it would double the query requirements as it would also be inserting into the log. i am looking at this for the next major version of vbcredits after 1.4, as it would solve many issues and add in some functionality many of you have wanted. just weighing the pros and cons.

you have to check off 'credits' as a displayable field in your vbulletin memberslist options

there are two award types, one for what you get for replying to your own thread (Your Thread Posting Credit) and the other for what you get when someone else replies to your thread (Your Thread Replied Credit).

vB3.7.2 changed some of the target code for the memberlist template, messing up that edit done by TMS. See this bug report for the new find/add code:
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/tracker.php?itemid=316

I'm pretty sure you could use both together. While vBExperience has more addon options right now, they arent as in-depth as the ones for vBCredits. Also, I wouldn't say installation is so bad - the actual steps are not beyond what you would do for most other hacks. Much of the reason it seems like a lot is that I explain EVERYTHING, to minimize absolutely anything that could go wrong. The result? much less repetitive installation support questions :p something thats been a godsend when you have hundreds of people installing it.

In any case, if you need help I am happy to assist you, here, at vbcredits.com or in a PM.

there are more third party addons which can use credits simply by changing a setting in the third party hack, but i dont have a comprehensive list (mainly cause they dont need to inform me when they get made) for example.. the casino, p3tz, ishop, name that tune, etc

Thank you.

that is part of the Post Award System, and to get it to show up you must belong to a group that has nonzero limits set in the usergroup settings for that feature. for unlimited use for groups you trust, like admin, set all 4 limits to -1 for unlimited.



Can you explain a little better, I am not getting it. What do I need to check or change? And where ?

in the usergroup editor, there is a new section of settings called Donations and Post Award System. The last 6 settings in this section detail the limits you can use for the system. Because credits awarded through this system come from thin air, you generally dont want to give free reign of it to just any group (except perhaps admin). So, if you want to give access to everyone but keep it from getting out of hand figure out the different ways to limit the system. Any limit with a value of 0 will prevent that group from accessing the system at all, and any limit with -1 value will cause it to be ignored - all 4 would be unlimited access overall (again, best for admin). Once a group has some level of access the icon will appear in threads with the ajax menu for them to award up to their defined limit (or as much as they want if they have unlimited).

Two things:

1. How can you add the banking and credits links to the custom user CP template used by the user cp icons modification? Could a future version use a template hook instead for these user cp links to make it workable with various modifications?

2. Progress on vB Commerce?

When I try and install other mods, i get the following error:

"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: credits_cantearn = prefixrequired"

Any advice on how to resolve? Thanks.

I have 1.4rev2 installed on 3.7.2

Are you using this vb3.7 version on your vb3.7? Did you install the vb3.6 version on your vb3.6, upgrade to vb3.7, and not upgrade this hack for it? Upload from your vbulletin zip file to your server forum/includes/xml/bitfields_vbulletin.xml

Two things:

1. How can you add the banking and credits links to the custom user CP template used by the user cp icons modification? Could a future version use a template hook instead for these user cp links to make it workable with various modifications?

2. Progress on vB Commerce?

1) Just apply the same template edit to the new template. While the find code may not fully match anymore, try searching for the word miscelaneous (sp) thats what i always do. Theres at least 2 hacks that i know of (probably more cause nobody has to tell me when they are making a hack that completely replaces usercp_shell) that do this, and i really cant give template edit instructions for anything but the default style cause thats the only standard one i can rely on (for the most part)

2) whenever there is news for vbcommerce, it will be posted at vbcredits.com, not here :D

when donating the credit the pm is sent as guest, how can it be made as sent from administrator or the donatee if possible

Darkwaltz4
07-21-2008, 09:41 AM
in the global settings for vbcredits you indicate the sender account for pm alerts. if you blank it out it should cease sending messages, but if the account it originally had got deleted it might send as guest which is what you are experiencing.

How do you turn on the threadaward gif pic so credits can be awarded per each thread or post. It is not showing on my forum. I have completed all template modifications

vB: 3.7.2

that is part of the Post Award System, and to get it to show up you must belong to a group that has nonzero limits set in the usergroup settings for that feature. for unlimited use for groups you trust, like admin, set all 4 limits to -1 for unlimited.

naturally, not exceeding the credits you have in the first place is already built in. go ahead, try it.

what does the moderator awards and donations stand for ?? The usergroup can moderate the awards or it carries the usergroup awards for moderation quee

Donations and awards have the option to send for moderation before they go through (in the usergroup settings). When that happens they will show up under that link. You can also reverse transactions that have already taken place.

Hi,

I am using this product for a few days. Its great with loads of option, but I am facing a Huge bug which makes me worried about this mod.

Now the Problem occured a few days back. Sudden;y I found all the points were reseted to 0. Then the forum had a few members, so I manually updated their points. Then today, the bug triggered again. All my point system is set to 0. Now I have more than 40 members. So it will be a problem for sure. And I wonder if it trigger again at a later point I might go crazy. :)

I am using the vBCredits 1.4rc2 (rev1) vb3.7 and My vB version is vBulletin 3.7.2 Patch Level 1. Am I the only one having this problem? Is there any solution or may I know the Trigger?

Looking forward to a resonable solution.

BTW, Cool Mod. :P

Yes I do have a lot of hacks installed, but I'm fairly certain it's the auto tagger that is giving me the issues. It happens when I run the maintenance script to either auto-delete or auto-add tags. The default is 1500 threads per cycle, but anything above around 350 gives me the memory error.

Well, yeah, there you go, even 350 (let alone 1500 !) is a lot to be processing in your server memory in the same script run - especially if you have many hacks that use hooks in the thread datamanager. You could look to increasing the amount of processing memory allowed in your php.ini, but while it will get rid of the error it will also drag down your server during that processing. It would probably be better to just continue to use lower numbers when using that function.

There should be a link on each game's individual profile that shows at the bottom of the main arcade screen. If it's not there, you might have missed an edit.

They are upset that people have recently been critical of their making promises of various release dates and never delivering the final product. Apparently vBCommerce was promised 10 months ago for example and still not even the sign of an Alpha release. :)

The simple solution would be stop making promises unless you are 100% sure you can deliver upon them. vBulletin developers learned that lesson. Maybe these guys will learn now. Especially given they are part-time (at best) developers struggling to find time to develop vBulletin add-ons.

Personally I don't think we will ever see vBCommerce. :)

They likely shut down the site so they could spend more time developing vBCredits/Commerce/Customizer, rather then answer and admin a site all day long. If you've spent any time on the site, or spent any time talking to Darkwaltz and PixelFX, you'd know that vBCredits is a HUGE investment on their part. This isn't something their doing in their spare time just for kicks. Their looking to make their products reliable and safe, considering that money is going to be exchanging hands utilizing a lot of these products. Their reputation for a solid product is more important to them then their reputation for a speedy product. Speedy products seldom deliver anyway.

If the site is shut down, then I can only imagine it's to free up time to work on their core scripts. I happen to know that their making progress, but that there's still important work to be done. Work that has to get done along side spending time with their families, and working on their real life jobs that provide genuine income; the higher of the priorities then any vB releases. You'll notice that Waltz is still taking genuine support questions via email.

I don't see any evidence as of yet that they aren't 100% certain that they can deliver on their products. What I do see is a lot of non-coders (myself included) criticising the amount of time it takes to code a complex and intricate project, when they have no idea how much time it actual takes to accomplish such a task and they have no idea how much time the developers have to do the actual work. Just because you've been told that a product is under development, doesn't mean you've been promised any kind of time line. The fact they have a heavily developed site, and already a number of deeply intricate products and scripts should tell you that they take this seriously.

I agree 100% with you. Sometimes the eyes are bigger than the stomach and you can't deliver. It happens. If they're working out the kinks and bugs, I'd rather they do that than release it and it destroys forums...
