vBCredits - Ultimate Points System

[MikalMirkas]

If this was compatible with vBExperience
I would be like
BEST.
MOD.
EVER.

[Darkwaltz4]

compatible in what way?

[RollaJedi]

it would be nice to be able to integrate vbcredits with vbexperience so that VBE's points can be turned into VBC's credits. Any idea if this is possible now or later?

[dynamite]

I am putting together the plans for vBCredits 2.0 which will be released for vB4 (once I get access to it).What about vbCommerce also?

unless vbexp has a setting to change the points field then no. vbcredits 2 is being built to enable hooking into any existing points fields including that one, whether the target addons have settings for it or not.

What about vbCommerce also?

thats a given! but it would rely on the new structure of vbcredits 2

Downloaded and installed. Installation went like a charm. Installation instructions in the readme were terrific, especially for a n0ob like me who doesn't really know what he's doing. That's very much appreciated. :up:


What I can't seem to find in this thread or at vBcredits.com is some sort of primer on how to set up credits (dollars in my case). I'm not really understanding the math between these things. This is just Monopoly money for my site; no actual commerce is going on here, but I don't want to screw it up and have to obliterate everyone's accounts because I screwed up and wound up giving everyone $1,000,000 per post or something.


Is there any sort of beginners' guide or something like that to get me started?

Thanks.

[zombietom]

anything special i need to do if i upgrade my forums from 3.7 to 3.8 to insure i do not lose any of my vbcredits stats or anything?

thanks in advance

Congrats! :D I am putting together the plans for vBCredits 2.0 which will be released for vB4 (once I get access to it).

Yay!!!! That is lovely news.... but you forgot to answer my post even though you quoted it. ;)

[rollerman]

OK, I'm trying to get this set up today, but when I go to my userCP and click on "Dollars and donations" or "Banking and loans" I get a 404 error.

Any help? I can't seem to get anywhere with the vBcredits.com board because I never got my registrastion e-mail so I'm permission-less for most of the threads there.

all of the settings describe the functions that arent self explanatory, however the basics of vbcredits is simply set up the awards in the usergroup settings for each action - there are defaults so you can get an idea for your own scale. once you give it a try and there are specific features you dont understand, just ask and i will be more detailed for them.

you dont need to do anything for vbcredits when upgrading vb3.7 to vb3.8 :)

Yay!!!! That is lovely news.... but you forgot to answer my post even though you quoted it. ;)

whoops! as you can guess i quote a bunch of posts at once and answer them in one reply... must have forgotten that one.

I've been looking through the files and there isn't a specific config, and I can't seem to figure out which variable(s) do the cash. Would you consider a paid request for a converter like you have for some of the other cash systems?

the file is (forum)/gameroom/settings.php
set $this->cashType to "credits"
then scroll down to the eight $this->bonuses settings, and put 0 for each (otherwise they will get awarded on top of your regular vbcredits awards)

unfortunately, due to the way the gameroom's settings are in this file, you will have to reapply these edits upon every update of the gameroom on your site.

are you sure you uploaded the credits.php file to your server? if you missed that one you probably missed others. I have activated your account on my site; sorry for the inconvenience.

After reading a bit more, I've decided that what I really need to do is just play with it a bit to get my desired results. I suppose that's probably the best possible solution for anyone wanting to "customize" this to their site. A little time, a little patience....

Bingo! That was one file I missed. Checked all the others against my un-zipped download file, and all the rest are there. Working now. Thanks!

I'll drop by your site to see what other goodies I want to add on. I gather that vBcredits is the base off of which much more interesting stuff can utilize.

Thanks again! :)

[rootsxrocks]

I used the default settings and they seem to be working out quite well, I advise you to be very Vague when explaining how to earn credits to your minions.

Here's all the contain of postbit_legacy: ...


all the find code appears to be in there, try searching for partial matches (like $post[posts]) and then examine if the match appears to be it (sometimes spacing can screw up finding the whole code)

did you finish the install process too? stopping after any template edits is not enough.

Thanks much for this hack and detailed instructions.

Wish to display image instead of Credits.

in the first global setting for vbcredits is a link to rename what they are called. you can stick html in that field, including an image tag.

Hey Dark,

The last update was .... Last Update: 11 Mar 2008

Any plans for an upgrade for us free users of vBCredit (not upgrades or promotions for your commercial products).

Hey Dark,

The last update was .... Last Update: 11 Mar 2008

Any plans for an upgrade for us free users of vBCredit (not upgrades or promotions for your commercial products).

As I mentioned in a previous post, I am currently making vBCredits II which should be available by vB4 gold. It is a full rewrite that will sidestep the issues that kept vBCredits 1.x from a final gold version

Still getting a page not found error?

As you sure you uploaded credits_admin.php to your admincp folder? If not, you probably missed other files.

[TheChaosFactor]

I will double check and get back to you on that. In the meanwhile can you unlock my account over on vbcredits.com? I registered but never got the e-mail so I can't access anything. It's the same name I use here...

[Darkwaltz4]

you are activated now :)

[TheChaosFactor]

Thank you.

Ok, so credits_admin.php is in my admincp folder.

The thing is some of the set up links work. It's just the bottom half that don't work.

Not a big deal though as I'm awaiting the release of 2.0 so this will be a fairly short lived version for me. Any word on vbcommerce for 4.0?

[Speysider]

I'm having a problem trying to access the file options.
I get an "Access Denied, you have been logged" error when I try to get to any of the options for vbcredits.

Can someone shed some light on the matter asap? Don't want to have the forum closed for a while to sort this.

[Speysider]

BTW, so I can get support, I've marked as installed :)

vbcredits isnt compatible with vbfirewall.

BTW, so I can get support, I've marked as installed :)

thanks!

[Speysider]

Ah. So I can't use them together? Shame :(
Well, I will just disable vbfirewall.

Will an update to fix the conflicting hacks be released?

[Speysider]

BTW, would you be willing to assist me in setting up my vBCredits? I have no idea what to do, and need a bit of help with it.

[Darkwaltz4]

i have no intention of making vbcredits compatible with vbfirewall.

why? it works with a whitelist. so, not only does it reject anything not on its list (which includes a million legitimate scripts such as vbcredits) but also anyone who reads that list can easily construct something malicious to get around it anyway.

at best its ineffective, at worst its disruptive.

--------------------------------------------

i am kind of freezing support for vbcredits (except for issues) because I am in the middle of developing vBCredits II. The core is done and being tested before I make the admin functions to configure it. Basically, setting up vBCredits II is much simpler and easier than it is right now, so it would be better to explain that one when it is available in a few days.

i am kind of freezing support for vbcredits (except for issues) because I am in the middle of developing vBCredits II. The core is done and being tested before I make the admin functions to configure it. Basically, setting up vBCredits II is much simpler and easier than it is right now, so it would be better to explain that one when it is available in a few days.
Okay.

[Darkwaltz4]

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.

[rootsxrocks]

Wake me up when its over, I lie at your mercy as does my forum. we are not Huge, but we are fresh and have experiance at another board with Credits.

There is a global donation switch in the specialty settings, and for each usergroup is a donation limit - if it is 0, they wont be able to donate.

I have a custom style installed and when I go to do the template I get a message saying "not found" any ideas please?

the style manager in your admincp? Or on credits.php on the forum?

Hello,
I use vB 3.8.4 PL2 and I have a some problems with vBCredits.
When I'm trying to change usergroups' options and click 'Update', a new usergroup is created (it's named e.g. as 'Registered Users'). BUT I have this problem ONLY when I edit options connected with vBCredits.
How to fix it?

[Darkwaltz4]

You are using suhosin and have hit the input maximum for your particular hosting setup. Technically, it is simply a coincidence that this happens with vBCredits stuff - it could have happened with anything you added next.

I do not support workarounds due to suhosin, but I do have a set of guidelines you can get your host to implement which should support my stuff, but thats all I can do: http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/announcement.php?f=5

[Cust0ms]

Thank you Darkwaltz4. I am going to check it.

[Cust0ms]

I checked my server configuration and I am sure there is NO suhosin.
So.. any other ideas?

[Darkwaltz4]

that has to be it, ive seen that happen numerous times (over a dozen) and its never been anything else. i can look around if you PM me an admin login.

[gamerfu]

Is there a way to grant certain user powers as credits?

Example: 1,000 points to enable signature.

[UPDATE]: 1,000th Install. Hahaa

Also, any word on Auto-Template?

[Darkwaltz4]

I have an addon that has been delayed which is supposed to handle selling access to those kinds of things. I have been spending my time with vBCredits II which is currently on its second beta with my testers. It supports charging for any actions which you could also reward for. It does do automatic template edits with template hooks :) once it is stable I will put a slimmed down version on vborg, but more info later (or on my site).

[gamerfu]

Is there a way to move Credits on postbit from the right-hand side to the left-hand side?

I have to much info on the right-hand side of postbit. *I think that is what it is called*

Also, I cannot wait until auto-templating. :cool: I have 24 styles on my site and I only have vBCredits coded for one out of the 24 styles. :erm: I have disabled all others due to not having oddles of time to update them all. :(

[Darkwaltz4]

well, feel free to alter the template code you added into the postbit or postbit_legacy templates. just leave the variables in there somewhere.

[kawe]

isnt compatible with vB 4 ?

[Darkwaltz4]

the vB4 compatible vBCredits II is currently being beta tested. Once it is stable, a new version will be available at vborg.

[Cust0ms]

Hi
I would like to configure my vbcredits in that way:
in specyfic forum user get 1 credit for each added attachment but.. only ZIP attachment. If user add any other attachment (like gif, bmp), will not get credits.
Is it possible to do that?

[Darkwaltz4]

Currently not possible to separate by attachment type.

[Cust0ms]

Another question: is any gallery to integrate with vBCredits? I would like to intergrate gallery with vBCredits (e.g. user must paid 5 credits for download image from gallery).
Is it possible?

[Darkwaltz4]

Currently no integration for those either :-/

[tafreeh]

the vB4 compatible vBCredits II is currently being beta tested. Once it is stable, a new version will be available at vborg.

Any estimated date? Because, i m just waiting for this mod.. and I m all ready to upgrade.

Hey,

It seems that some of my members are having their credits disappear. Is there other noted happenings of this?

Thank you

[Digital Jedi]

Check to make sure you don't have a negative value set somewhere. If I remember correctly, sending PMs is set as a negative modifier by default, so look for things like that.

[Wifey]

Every time someone joins they get 100 points, even though I've turned off points for joining. I've also reset credits about 4 times. Any idea? I don't want members getting any points unless they're awarded them by staff (part of our contest we need the points for)

I have moved my base of operations to dragonbyte-tech.com due to creative differences with pixelfxstudios. This means the version at vbcredits.com will be maintained by his new team. My version however, will be under [dbtech].

Apologies on the confusion sure to be had in the coming weeks. The grand overhaul of vBCredits is currently forked (pixelfx has what I was working on prior to the split).

Definitely confusion. We're not sure what a forked overhaul will look like, how these two things will overlap or operate with each other...perhaps you don't either at this stage? I think it's safe to say anything under the dbtech banner will be pulled apart and made into both a partialware ("lite") version and an expensive complete version.

[Darkwaltz4]

My overhauled version for vb4 is being wrapped up :) it was in development for six months. I doubt my version will work together with the vbcredits.com one. I think your projection for mine under dbtech is accurate, but bear in mind it looks and acts nothing like the ancient version at the top of this thread here.

=) The version released under the DBTech banner will have both a Lite and Pro version - we think it's important to give something free back to the community, even though some people act like it's their right to get things for nothing, which makes us sad =(

As DarkWaltz has already mentioned, our version will be the only one with him at the helm for the entire development, and will be the only one with him updating/upgrading it. the pixelFXstudios one will be with whatever coders PixelFXstudios is able to find.

I firmly expect our Pro version to be significantly more feature rich than any competing points system, and for our Lite version to be competitive with anything anyone else has released.

We plan on releasing both Lite and Pro at the end of the month, and are confident that everyone will be blown away by what the new version has to offer =)

vbcredits.com full versions will always been support on our site and we're working on full updates for 4.0.x as well. We're fully committed to supporting our clients including free upgrades to all 4.0.x for those that bought products through us and will continue to support all new and old products. We also have lite versions of our products which will be posted at vbulletin.org to meet with the site rules here.

Darkwaltz4 is no longer staff with our firm aka PixelFX Studios we had new programmers setup to carry on development of our systems, however and we have wished him to the best in his new position with dbtech.

We are not affiliated in any way with dbtech, although we've offered any of their users a 10% discount on products at vbcredits.com, just pm me for info.

We've read the posts above, and all we ask is that users be act professional so we all can release scripts that support end users as best as possible. Thank You

[MagicThemeParks]

Thanks for the reassurance of the ongoing support for vBcredits Robert! :up:

I always go by the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality and I love the vBcredits mod and addons that have been created (and will be in the future!) :D

[PixelFx]

Darkwaltz4 is a very good programmer I'm sure he'll come up with something at his new job to wow the masses. While we continue to support our vbcredits clients.

[War.Frog]

Thanks PixelFX. It's with great hope that Darkwaltz4 focuses on some wonderful extensions and add-ons to the upcoming vBCredits rather than a replica credits solution. I think that will only cause more confusion, and divide support and integration for other developers on vb.org. We have enough of that with vb's maintenance releases! :D

Looking forward to vBCII!

[DragonByte Tech]

ofcourse the danger with dbtech version is the classic disappearing act ;)

^.^ Less of a danger with DBTech than other companies since DBTech is a large successful team - even if one person was to leave, there are plenty of others to carry on the work.

Can't say the same for smaller companies mind you. I'm sure Rob has no intention of ever doing so, but there's always a greater risk of very small companies with only 1 person running things going down. At DBTech the way the agreements are set up, even if one person was to leave, the rights are still transferred so the products can continue to be sold, supported and developed by the remaining team members =)

=) Thanks for bringing up the point though. It's important for people to understand the relative risks in purchasing products - thats why all of our products are available for download immediately upon payment - theres no chance of everything suddenly vanishing without getting the product you pay for.

I feel this is important, and the more open way to do business.

Hope that helps! :up:

[Joey Link]

How soon after a user completes an activity, such as making a post, do their credits show up?

[ArnyVee]

The credits should show up immediately after adding a post. That is, if all usergroup permissions and credits are setup correctly. Default setup should be sufficient, but just check the specific usergroup permissions if they are not showing for you. :)

Hey there! I've got this mod installed.

For example if I wanted to create a competition between Usergroup A and Usergroup B to see which group could earn the most amount of credits, would I be able to do this?

This is not possible in this version. The pro version of vBCredits II Deluxe allows you to build bar graphs comparing the earning levels on several grouping methods including usergroup in the transaction manager.

How can I edit how many points are given for a new post, new thread, etc?

I see no options for that.

Those are in the usergroup settings.

Did you leave the post award system enabled for regular members? Check the usergroup settings for them. There is a tool in the vbcredits menu to find and edit the amounts people have all at once.

Usergroup settings. The main settings let you choose the days, but you cant choose a reference time point though (its effectively from when you installed the addon)

What the heck is the post award system even for? And what does that have to do with somebody being able to donate millions of credits to other users when he doesn't even have that amount himself?

And I honestly can't find that "tool in the vbcredits menu to find and edit the amounts people have all at once".

No offense, but this mod really needs to be more organized, user-friendly, and easier to find options.

[Darkwaltz4]

The post award system is a way for staff groups to award credits to other users without taking the credits out of their own accounts. Some people mistake this for other things and accidentally enable this for regular members.

I invite you to upgrade to the new iteration of vbcredits - vBCredits II Deluxe (works for vB3.7/8+4): https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245952

Ive tried to use the new deluxe whatever for vb4, but it's overly complicated compared to this previous version, and it seems less functional overall.

What's the status of this project vbcredits (not deluxe etc)? The vbcredits.com website seems to have been taken down and shifted, and I'm having trouble understanding who owns what and who supports what.

[Darkwaltz4]

The old version is no longer maintained as it has been replaced with II deluxe. It has all of the features of this version and much much more. Here is a quick start guide on using it: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/threads/1714-Quick-Start-Guide

Of course, if you have usage questions I am happy to help guide you.

[jayhawk785]

Dark, probably not the most appropriate place for this question--perhaps I should shift to the 4.0 thread... but let me explain my basic needs, and let you know what trouble I ran into on the development site:

NEED: purchase credit integration (previous purchased vbcredit$ addon)

NEED: subscription purchase to add bonus credits when purchased (this can be accomplished by usergroup promotion in deluxe, but ill explain why this isnt working for me later)

NEED: daily paychecks per usergroup, cron'd and not based on login

---------------

What I ran into in your newer version is a problem where, the new system seems to pay out only when a user logs in, or after x minutes if you use the cron. So, when a user subscribes and they are promoted, they may not see their credits instantly which can be frustrating.

I also need a way to have users purchase credits, I split the use of two credits fields (checking and savings). Purchased credits go to savings, monthly-earned via daily paychecks/subscribed credits go to checking. Checking credits can only be used with an active subscription.

I do not allow the use of the bank, or donation systems. This is basically "real" cash conversion to credit to allow the purchase of goods on the site (separately scripted).

can you suggest a way to do this with your new products? I have been unsuccessful in getting them to work the way I need them to (as described) and the inability to allow processed paypal/google co/payments is a really preventing me from using this.

Appreciate the help.

[Darkwaltz4]

The paypal integration is part of an in-testing pro version.

You can turn on immediate transactions in the global config (by default its disabled for deferred processing as the calculations required can be overwhelming to busy servers). At any rate why is it important that users get credits when they are not logged in? It wont matter to them unless they are present, at which point they would have their credits. There are many changes made which include that philosophy in an effort to reduce server stress.

[jayhawk785]

what if they have a subscription, and they are moved to a usergroup where they receive 2 credits per day for 6 months. Lets say they don't login for the last 3 months of their subscription. The subscription is expired at that point--do they still receive the paycheck for the last 3 months (up to the point the subscription expired)?

also, for me to report off usage etc, it's ideal that its more 'real' time.

Are all of those calculations suspended when the product is turned off ? I am trying to diagnose excess database hits and slow load times, I think it is mostly vb but I just want to be sure Every other process is turned off.

Hm, well for the short term, I am not changing it as you are the only person to have raised an issue with it. The previous vbcredits did those via midnight cron, but performance issues with large forums was a frequent complaint - it would be that much worse with the new one. I'll hang onto your suggestion though.

Also, paypal integration is now available in the new pro version at dbtech :) (link in sig)

Then I imported the xml file, but it doesn't work...
It says: Please upload all files that came with vbcredits.!!

What should I do???

Please ensure all subfolders were merged vs skipped.

You mean bring all files in one parent folder within forum root directory??

Hey there,

hopefully you can help me as I have a huge problem with the
CHARGE-Code in my forums.

See this for example:
http://www.sims3forum.de/die-sims-3-nachbarschaften-welten/12219-blue-lagoon-exklusiv.html

This is the problem:

f?r 1000:
7100

f?r 2500:
7101

f?r 4000:
7102

After refreshing the post cache to fix some issues with another mod
we noticed that the charge code contents aren't displayed correctly
anymore but instead show some weird numbers inside.

Can you tell me how to fix this issue? We have thousands of posts
with charge codes not working anymore. I am a customer, I love your
products.


Thank you so much for your help!

I found a bug.
When a new member completes registration an error code appears at the top of the page
"warning: invalid argument#1 is not an array on path/dbtech/credits/credits_vbulletin.php on line 440"
Something like that, but the registration process done without any other problems.
The points is updating succesfull on every new post and thread but no points for registration is given to new members.

I just tried to install the mod onto my site and ran into an error. I uploaded all the files to the correct folders and created the new plugins folder as well. The error I am receiving is below on the import of the xml.

Hello. I used to have a 3.8.7 board, with vbcredits installed. Then i've removed almost all hacks, this included, to upgrade to a 4.2 vbulletin.

When i was upgrading i've received this error:

Module: vbblog, Step 1 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: allowvideos = credits_cantearn
Bitfield Collision: bypassdp = credits_cantshow
Bitfield Collision: displaywrt = credits_cantaward
Bitfield Collision: canreputation = credits_modawards
Bitfield Collision: allowvideos = credits_cantearn
Bitfield Collision: bypassdp = credits_cantshow
Bitfield Collision: displaywrt = credits_cantaward
Bitfield Collision: canreputation = credits_modawards

In the middle of upgrade process. I've opened a ticket at vbulletin support, that told me to uninstall the vbcredits plugin.

Opened the admincp and the plugin isn't there in the list to uninstall it. How can i manually do that? Is there a way to fix the issue so i can continue with the upgrade?

Thanks

Is there a way to disable savings, loans, etc? It's unnecessarily complicated and confusing for our simple site.
