vBExperience 3.8

[matthewhotdude]

Bug I think

I set an achievment for someone to recieve after making 100 posts,

But people are getting them when they have less than 100 posts
in the compare option I have the arrow pointing towards the right and the value is set at 100 is that correct?

similar problem for an achievement I created for users with more than 20 referrals. everyone is receiving them.

[luan7749]

Yes, with settings in Experience: Shop you can set so items will be displayed in different places in postbit.
No, That is not my mean, I want to display IMAGE of goods in my members signature, not items. Please help me !

Not a Bug. It seems you both didn't read what I posted in the release notes/readme:
- Just a short note: Condition in Achievements and Promotions are calculated in POINTS, not in counts of items.
If you choose 10 Day, you must enter the points needed for this.
For example: You have an achievement for 10 days. You have set 2 points for every day since registering. Calculation: 10*2 = 20
You will have to set 20 as the condition.
vBExperience is collecting data and multiplies it with points you set via options.


No, That is not my mean, I want to display IMAGE of goods in my members signature, not items. Please help me !
Please define IMAGE. Items are represented by images.

[matthewhotdude]

I changed it did the recount but it's the same

[Phalynx]

Once an achievement has been assigned, it will not be rewoked anymore. I did not implement it yet, maybe in Beta 3 (in around 2 weeks!).

In the meantime clear the table xperience_achievements_issues and recount.

[matthewhotdude]

How do I do that, sorry for being dumb

[matthewhotdude]

you mean in my SQL in phpmyadmin

[BostWick-x]

I LOVE the new update. Thanks for taking our requests.

Great work. :)

[Phalynx]

Yes:
DELETE FROM xperience_achievements_issues

I LOVE the new update. Thanks for taking our requests.

Great work. :)

Awaiting more Feedback :)

[matthewhotdude]

Thanks sorted...will have a play around and leave feedback

[Leo Brazil]

Phalynx, as I always say this is one the best mods I ever seen here not only for your support but you're always trying to do your best to accept our requests and so on.

Well, on your to do list you mentioned - Download files with vBExperience as a credit system ("LDM Links and Downloads Manager", "DownloadsII")

That's a great idea, I don't know what you thinking about this but I have a few suggestions:

To download something from there users show have a certain number of points and spend their points in case they download it.
Possibility to set different "price" for every download.
Also, if you upload stuff you earn points.

I know this is not an easy task but as you always surprize us, here it goes.

[Phalynx]

Leo, let's have a surprise in Beta 3 :)

[digicom]

Much Apprciated Phalynx For Update Excellent Work Thankyou :up:

[Phalynx]

Yes, as I said.

[LGKeiz]

Oh I was rather confused, I didn't know If you were talking about the kill_xperience problem or that one.

[Phalynx]

I fixed both.

Please download the Beta 2 again, overwrite class_xperience.php and reimport product. Recount after then. This will fix the Achievements in Forums with Subdirectories.

[matthewhotdude]

[matthewhotdude]

Yes, thank you :)

Good News: I will release a Refresh of the Beta 2 with the following changelog:

3.8.5 Beta 2.1
- Shop can now control items of "Links and Download Manager" and "DownloadsII". Simply put the LinkID of the item into the Shop Item Properties. User cannot download the item until he purchase it.
- Fixed issue with Notification on forums with subdirectory (e.g. /forums/)
- Fixed issue with Achievements on forums with subdirectory (e.g. /forums/)
- Fixed issue with Google Chrome and Tabs
- Improved uninstall

How to upgrade?
Simply overwrite all PHP files and import product XML.


Awaiting feedback :)

[Phalynx]

How to implement Shop Items that can be downloaded after purchased.
1. Install vBExperience, enable shop.
2. Install LDM Links And Download Manager or DownloadsII
3. Install either ZIP\extras\Addons\download_files_shop_ldm.xml or ZIP\extras\Addons\download_files_shop_downloadsII. xml. Depends of which downloadsystem you have installed.
4. Upload the download content. Memorize the LinkID!
5. AdminCP, Experience, Manage Shop, Add Category/Edit items
6. Depending of the downloadsystem you have to enter the numerical LinkID into the correct field

If the user purchased the item, he can download it. If he sells or give it away, he cannot access the file anymore.

[Itchy Nips]

upgraded and everything is smooth so far. the problem i have is a 404 error with achievements that dont exist. Long story short, I created an achievement and decided to remove it because it gave it to everyone, rather than the people its supposed to. It sent a notification (under their PM notification on the top right of the page). When they click on the notification, it brings them to a 404 error page:

Not Found

The requested URL /forumsmember.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

How do I remove their achievement notifications? I tried a recount but that doesnt do anything.

[Phalynx]

Issue fixed and added also a possibility to clear issued achievements (AdminCP, Experience, Manage Achievements).
Please re-download ZIP, import product XML and update admincp/xperience_admin.php

[Itchy Nips]

thanks! will try it now

UPDATE: seems to be working. I'll let you know if anyone reports an error

[Itchy Nips]

one of my users just reported this error:

I have a Issued/Removed Award notification and I get this...

Perfect, that fixed the template distorting..

Heres a suggestion:

Make the tabs jscript so each tab doesnt reload a new page so it flows more..?
So clicking a tab would just switch to it instead of reloading the page..

That's why you have 0 in "Threads". It seems the point settings for single threads are 0. "Points for Threads" is a sum of all thread relevant data.

[intruder]

Is it possible to have a setting that gives different points for threads opened in certain sub-forums and for the whole activity of users in those sections?

For example, if I have a sub-forum called IT&Gadgets and certain users are always active there by writing reviews or getting involved into discussions, those users to receive higher points for their threads/reply given in that sub-forum than users active in others sub-forums like lets say "Funny things". What I want is a difference between the quality of threads/posts based on what subjects I want to be developed on the forum.




There is a plugin called Advanced Forums. With it you can set some settings depending of the forum.



Well, it might sound stupid, but if you're refering to this plugin: http://www.provb.org/vb_products.php?&vb_products=moreinfo&productid=11 I really don't see how it might help me.

What I wanted to know if it's possible to add in the tab Settings: Points an option to set custom points for thread / posts in forums with no 4,10,12 for example, just the opposite of ignoring some forums.

Thank You

The user will get the achievement on the next recalc. After login, posting something, uploading a picture.

[matthewhotdude]

Yeah, just define another "alt" or "div" at your CSS and edit xperience wrap templates (I don't remember names exactly)


Phalynx:

Did you added the word "issued" to "issued/removed award" phrase beacause you know IN FACT that es a REAL issue??

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Notice username Triz... He obviously has points for average posts per day, yet when showing his total in the left frame it only shows a total of the points shown in the other frames. His Average Posts per Day points are 4 so his left total should be 5553 eventho his average posts per day aren't high enough to show.

Hope you understand where I'm getting at...

EDIT: Wait I just realized I didn't even know what I was getting at. Why does it list Average posts per day if we don't get any points for it?

[OFFSHORE DAN]

Hello,

I have enabled promotions, set up a criterea and have someone that matches it, but the promotion has not occurred. Is there a scheduled task for this or am I missing something?

Same here. Some users have been active for at least 12 hours since I added promotions in vBExperience but the promotions system is not promoting them. I removed all promotions from Vbulletin so there would be zero problems but now no users are getting promoted based on Experience. Any suggestions would really help. I even did a manual RECOUNT to see if that would help but Nope.

I have read through all post here in this thread and tried so finally I am posting for help.

Glad to hear it's not just me.

Promotions are a seperate product/plug-in that you must install and you need to Run the task in AdminCP--> Scheduled Tasks -> Scheduled Task Manager

Did you enable vBExperience promotions under Settings: General?

[Guvadan]

Did you enable vBExperience promotions under Settings: General?

That option does not exist within Settings : General

[OFFSHORE DAN]

Did you enable vBExperience promotions under Settings: General?

Yes under the Vbulletin Options "Experience" is ask "Enable the Experience system?" and I have it set to yes.

I also have "Use the promotion system?" set to YES as well.

Thank you gamerfu for trying to help us on this, I really hope we can figure out what is wrong because I have tons of members waiting to be promoted. The rest of this mod works great except this bug for promotions.

[OFFSHORE DAN]

So here is where I am at now. I read through all the post on this 3.8 version and was not finding an answer so I went and read all the post in the 3.7 version (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=171014) and found one mention that you need to totally uninstall the .xml and then reinstall a new .xml in my case Level 5 because it is a big forum. So I did that and I am going to run a recount. Last time I ran the recount it took over 9 hours to run over 120k members so it will be a while before I know if it worked.

No Cron Jobs? Interesting...

I am reading the read me and I think it depends on their current levels. I read somewhere this was configurable/editable in the "level".xmls You might have to open up NotePad or WordPad to edit the "level".xml file.

"Promotion system
To motivate users to do more on your forum I created the promotion system. By reaching defined xperience points the user will be moved to another usergroup - where you can set graphics, shadows, highlighting, etc... What is interesting in combination with this: you can give the user more possibilities f.e. larger avatars or bigger PM box. A log of the promotions is available."

This might help. *crosses fingers*

Hi, vBExperience not update by itself makes the user statistics is = to 0

[OFFSHORE DAN]

No Cron Jobs? Interesting...

I am reading the read me and I think it depends on their current levels. I read somewhere this was configurable/editable in the "level".xmls You might have to open up NotePad or WordPad to edit the "level".xml file.



I was able to modify the level.xml but promotions part is still not working. I am having to manually promote people right now.

[Nephalim]

I got a problem where members get a message about acheivements. But when they click on it theres a error page. The link in the message dropdown ends with;;;; achievements#xpa but the page is just ;;;; achievements

really cool add-on though. Hopefully we'll get this little error fixed:)

[neoxephon]

I noticed that some people are having problems with the Notifications menu links for vBExperience 3.85

The links end up pointing to http://www.mysite.com/member.php...
Instead of http://www.mysite.com/forums/member.php...

I fixed this for my forums and thought I would share how to fix it.

1. First, if you already have vBExperience installed, uninstall it.
2. Open up "product_vbexperience385.xml" in a text editor.
3. Make the following changes:

Find:
$notifications['xperience_achievementcount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_achievements_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'/member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=achievements#xpa',
'order' => 150
);

$notifications['xperience_awardcount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_awards_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'/member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=awards#xpa',
'order' => 151
);
$notifications['xperience_promotioncount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_promotions_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'/member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=promotions#xpa',
'order' => 152
);Replace with:
$notifications['xperience_achievementcount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_achievements_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=achievements#xpa',
'order' => 150
);

$notifications['xperience_awardcount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_awards_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=awards#xpa',
'order' => 151
);
$notifications['xperience_promotioncount'] = array(
'phrase' => $vbphrase['xperience_promotions_notifications'],
'link' => $vboptions[bburl].'member.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u='.$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'].'&do=promotions#xpa',
'order' => 152
);4. Save the XML file and install vBExperience using it.

The links in the Notifications menu should now be fixed.

Hey it says import the xml files how do I do that ive ftpd the files binary and text only not sure what to do next

[OneShot]

I'm having some problems with vBExp 3.8.5 Beta 2 and Downloads 5.1.0. I'm running both on vB 3.7.5 PL1.

Through some experimentation I tracked the problem down to vBExp. The Problem is that whenever someone tries to download a file via the Download section he gets the message "You don't have permission to download this file"

When I disable vBExp everything works, but then thats obviously not the best solution. nybody got an idea where the problem might lie and how I might be able to fix it ?

Are you sure you uploaded all files and overwrote old ones?.
That issue was fixed in vbexp 3.8.5.2.1

[RK1gaming]

yea downloaded the package today and seeing the same errors with the achievements when people get them as a notification - getting a 404 error -

I am also not getting the points set up option and other things that i had before .. I will re-download and re-upload to make sure I a not missing something but i have had VB EXP for a while now - but will double check

[RK1gaming]

here is a view of my exp menu seems things are missing

[rugby]

i tried this activity code in forumhome template after $navbar, but its not working

$activity

i tried this also in forumhome template

<if condition="$foundactivity==0">
<td class="alt1" width="100%">
$vbphrase[xperience_no_activities]
</td>
<else />
<td>
$activity
</td>
</if>
</tr>

again that is not working too, is there something i can do to make this work?

i have attached screenshot below, it keeps on showing as no activities yet, but in xperience it shows all the activities.

please let me know the code to put in forumhome template to make that activities work properly.

[m3rl1nuk]

Yes double checked and all files upped ok, reverted back to the last stable version for now :-)

[Digital Jedi]

here is a view of my exp menu seems things are missing
You do realize that you have additional controls for Experience in your vBoptions menu, right? ;)

[thetgc]

great mod :)

for the bars, is the code available so i can place it where i want? as the option to place it where i want isnt there :(

thanks,

[Phalynx]

I'm back now. Will answer all questions today.

Yes, I'm aware of the problem with the forum prefix /forum/ in notifications. Also, I will take a deeper look at the promotions.
Disregard the readme for promotions that says you will have to edit XML files and import them. It has been replaced with the GUI in the AdminCP.


Phalynx...

Possible Bug.
http://www.sandboxgamers.net/posts.jpg

Notice username Triz... He obviously has points for average posts per day, yet when showing his total in the left frame it only shows a total of the points shown in the other frames. His Average Posts per Day points are 4 so his left total should be 5553 eventho his average posts per day aren't high enough to show.

Hope you understand where I'm getting at...


EDIT: Wait I just realized I didn't even know what I was getting at. Why does it list Average posts per day if we don't get any points for it?
AVG PPD are independent of the points for posts, as they are need for calculating the Activity percentage.



Sorry about double post.

Another thing....
There is no link to regenerate achievements just like in Awards or Show shop items at postbit

Maybe this is an issue:
I have deleted default Achievements but they are still apearing at post bit.
Permofming a recount.... be right back.

EDITED ***********
Nothing happened with recount. I have clicked on "Clear all issued Achievements and Logs" link too but nothing happened

EDITED AGAIN***********

Never mind, achievements at postbit have gone now :p
Will take a deeper look to make it more comfortable.

Thanks for fixing the first problem!

Now I'm having issue with a user receiving negative points when they gave points away he explained it 100% in this post

http://gamingsync.com/showthread.php?p=4756#post4756

can you check it out, thanks!
Will take a deeper look and fix it for next beta.



Also your showcase block is poorly coded, I've highlighted what you don't need in the showcase block


<if condition="$vboptions[xperience_achievements_postbit_wrap]">
<div class="alt1 block_row">
<fieldset class="alt1">
<legend>$vbphrase[xperience_achievements_short]</legend></if>
$achievements
<if condition="$vboptions[xperience_achievements_postbit_wrap]"></fieldset>
</div>
<else />
<br/>
</if>


It causes custom styles to have extra lining in the showcase box.

PS: I've tested it on my styles, and other styles, and default vb styles it looks the way it should look.
Please don't say poorly. It's just not optimized :D
Will change it.


Phalynx, can you make it so that the categories in the shop are in two columns? The long list of categories in my shop makes you scroll far down to see the items.
Added to my todo list.

It seems you installed the LDM plugin for vBExperience. Are you using it in the shop?

Check options, there you can move it in the template hooks of the postbit template.

[realmr]

can we set forums based pts (individual forum has different pts for post and threads) or is it global same pt system ?

[Phalynx]

It is a global system, but you can install a plugin to make it individual for each forum.

[OneShot]

Cannot confirm that.
It seems you installed the LDM plugin for vBExperience. Are you using it in the shop?

The shop is disabled. I might have installed the LDM plugin, but I'm not sure and its not visible under "Products". Is there a way to disable the LDM plugin?

[Phalynx]

Yes, just delete it. It's a plugin, not a product and it's called
vBExperience - LDM Permission Check for purchased downloaditems

[rugby]

It will not work as the code that is preparing $activity is not active on that place.

then what code should i use to make it work in FORUMHOME template?

[Phalynx]

You would need to create a plugin to an existing hook and take the code from xperience.php - very difficult for normal users. If you need further help with that you are not a programmer and therefore I think you can't do it.

Maybe I will implement such a thing in the future.

I'm having these strange messages in my forum using vBExperience. These lines appear over and over again in the xperience.php?go=awards page with only some minutes between them...

04:39 PM The Noid returned the award Game Author
04:39 PM The Swedish Tower returned the award Site Administrator
04:39 PM junhalestone returned the award Game Author
04:39 PM Ezo returned the award Site Administrator

[thetgc]

Check options, there you can move it in the template hooks of the postbit template.

I did look there and there are no options for me to place it in a location of my choice. I have placed it in 'postbit_userinfo_right (Below reputation). But below that i have the messenger icons etc... so how do i put the bans below them??

Thanks,

[gorentals]

Users are complaining they can't get rid of Gifted Items. They can't sell nor give them away. I have removed the items in question via phpmyadmin, it works for awhile then the items come back. Is this a bug with gifted items or is this something that needs to be added?

thx

[OFFSHORE DAN]

Phalynx any response to the promotions system not working? Otherwise good stuff. I look forward to further releases.

Any word on this yet? really need it.

[Sayid]

This is a crocked-best mod I have seen @_@

I have some ideas {todo features :D}:

Can you please add an option to give gifts in the shop and delete/remove purchased/gifted items?

one more request, is there a way to show items within username as you did with awards ?

This is an example

http://www.insideearth.net/showpost.php?p=131621&postcount=2

Benni has two awards displayed within his username. I try to show some purchased items of special category there.

Last request is to make achievements page separated with numbers instead of too long page like this :

i just installed the latest version, i have a few questions...

the achievements, there are only 3 when i install it. is there a product that adds more? do i have to manually add them myself? if so, are the icons in the xperience folder supposed to be used?

actually to simplify all of my questions, things like the promotions, the shop, the activities...are these all supposed to be set up manually or are there versions that i can download or enable within the mod for a default structure?

of course you have to customize them, add, edit or delet them.

"Activities" is only a log.
Awards and Achievements are already pre-filled with some basic stuff.
Shop, Promotions can only be filled by you. Maybe I will create a basic item in the shop to show what is possible.

No, and it will not be included. Currently the vBulletin API is not usable in that place.

just a suggestion for achievements, besides experience, there should be levels. so if someone reached level 10 for example, they have an achievement. etc.

also, on the experience page from the navbar, in the achievements tab i am getting this:

window.google_analytics_uacct = "UA-xxxxxx-x"

at the top of the page, is that a bug with vbseo or possibly the livestats plugin from vbseo?

also, i have an achievement for when a user aquires 10 posts. it is set to Posts > 10
users that have 6 posts or 9 posts...less then 10, are receiving the achievement. is this a bug or am i doing it wrong?

[OFFSHORE DAN]

Regarding the promotions.... Are you sure your promotions have a display order higher than 0? My problem is that promotions never work. Members reach the next level and I have to manually update their usergroup. I posted this and what I did from start to finish in this thread but your were on vacation.

I have a problem that prevent me from get my plugin for vBExperience working right.

I have customs columns in the users table. I need to pass this columns to "$xPerience->CalculateXP" and calculate them over there without calling another query in the SQL.

The problem is that vBExperience only use some users columns and no all the columns from the users table.

I recommend change this:


SELECT
u.lastactivity,
u.username,
u.userid,
u.joindate,
u.lastactivity,
u.reputation,
u.usergroupid,
u.membergroupids,
u.ipoints,
u.posts,
u.xperience_ppd
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user as u
for this


SELECT *
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user as u
I know that the first one is faster but is not scalable.

Sorry for my english

[Digital Jedi]

I was going to mention this earlier, as I just noticed it today, but I noticed a few errors in the HTML output, but can't quite seem to find where to edit. For instance, the Achievements images have a duplicate border attribute in them. And the alt tag is not specificied:

<img class="inlineimg" border="0" width="16" height="16" border="0" src="http://www.cogonline.net/forums/xperience/icons/dude4_16.png" title="Got three Friends" /><img class="inlineimg" border="0" width="16" height="16" border="0" src="http://www.cogonline.net/forums/xperience/icons/spheres_iridescent_16.png" title="First 1000 Experience Points" /><img class="inlineimg" border="0" width="16" height="16" border="0" src="http://www.cogonline.net/forums/xperience/icons/calendar_16.png" title="10 Days registered" />

There's a bug within the achievement "Days registered"...

The calculation for the days seems to be wrong: It shows more than twice the amount of days people really have been registered.

I get this too, as well as number of friends. It seems to be a multiple rather than a straight sum. I think I have 9 friends on my profile but Experience tells me it's 27. I also started my forum August 31 yet it's showing I've been registered 41 days.

Edit: Also, is there a way to disable the Award Showcase? It's redundant with the awards appended to the username, and members seem to like that best. More showy. :-D

I know that the first one is faster but is not scalable.

Sorry for my english
Will add a hook for this. A * is really a big oversize.

I was going to mention this earlier, as I just noticed it today, but I noticed a few errors in the HTML output, but can't quite seem to find where to edit. For instance, the Achievements images have a duplicate border attribute in them. And the alt tag is not specificied:
That's turning up quite a few validation errors for me.
Fixed in next beta.
There's a bug within the achievement "Days registered"...

The calculation for the days seems to be wrong: It shows more than twice the amount of days people really have been registered.

I get this too, as well as number of friends. It seems to be a multiple rather than a straight sum. I think I have 9 friends on my profile but Experience tells me it's 27. I also started my forum August 31 yet it's showing I've been registered 41 days.
No, no, no... this is NOT A BUG. It has been described many times, also it states in readme and changelog:
Just a short note: Condition in Achievements and Promotions are calculated in POINTS, not in counts of items.
If you choose 10 Day, you must enter the points needed for this.
For example: You have an achievement for 10 days. You have set 2 points for every day since registering. Calculation: 10*2 = 20
You will have to set 20 as the condition.

Edit: Also, is there a way to disable the Award Showcase? It's redundant with the awards appended to the username, and members seem to like that best. More showy. :-D

My activity for my users is not hitting 100%. I have the SPAM and RSS boards on ignore, but I suspect vBExperience is still calculating those boards because I have ignored those boards for over a month now and the activty percents have only changed by a few percents. :(

[Phalynx]

Cannot confirm this. How do you seperate the list of ForumID's?

Also, which values are taking into calculation? Blog, Visitormessages or just Posts?

[Sador]

Was just reading through the topic, and I just wanted to give a compliment to you Phalynx, for keep updating this hack and helping people with their questions. It's a very nice thing you're doing.

[SEW810]

Yeah, or maybe the user should use another level.xml
Well, i guess :)

How I got the userIDs isolated is through the vBadvanced module that came with vBExperience. I always displays the top active users, but since 3.8.4 GOLD release and I have set SPAM and RSS board to ignore last month I have been having this problem. :confused:

Yeah, or maybe the user should use another level.xml
Well, i guess :) Default Level 1 .xml is being used for I do not have over 500 users. The level 1.xml file has always worked fine and hitting 100% in activity. :(

None of my members can seem to level up.

Is there a way to hide an attachment, and if a user want to click/download, he has to pay a desidered ammount of experience to the other user that posted it? I'd love to see users sells each others scans of stickers or toy boxes.. :) thank you for this great fun!!

[Matt Lathrop]

For some reason after I import a new level product and recount the levels stay the same! I accidentally imported the wrong level pack and now the top user is at like level 17. Any ideas?

Those points ARE NOT per day (registered), those points are per day LOGGED, no matters if you are regesitered since january 1st 2009 and yumiko since March 1st 2009.

maybe yomiko is looged every day since registration and you just log in once or twise a week (for example)
Got it?

this is a common error. Days since registering IS calculating days since registering, NOT how many times a user logged in. As vBulletin does not store login counts, I even cannot read that value.

Hello Phalynx

I have installed the vBExperience and all its ok :) nice till here.

I have a small problem.. I want the users to download the item from the shop not only at his postbit but in his PC ( i want ot put some wallpapers JPG ) but i cant setup the shop to do this.

Im new to VB if you can help me with some easy step to do this

Thanks a lot

[Phalynx]

Great. I would be glad to see that you clicked also on "Mark as Installed" :)

Download real content, not only virtual items is currently in Beta stage in combination with the hacks "Links and Downloads" and "DownloadsII".

[nat.n]

We intend on offering stuff such as wallpapers, screensavers etc.
We have already installed DownloadsII -should we install Links and Downlaods, too? Should there be a "conflict" between these two scripts?
(We are still testing our forum).

We're just wondering if there's the option for "real download" (stuff as above) in the next or a future version.

[Phalynx]

It's already in the current Beta, but it needs a litte tweaking and work. It will work in both scripts, you need to install only one of them.

[Sador]

Just wondering, are there any plans or possibilities to add a feature to buy certain extra rights for users? This could mean things like extra pm inbox room when bought that item, the option to customize your profile, and so on.

I really have no idea whether or not this is possible at all, but it would be kinda nice if it was. If not, it's still possible to just give those extra options to the buyers manually of course. :)

Points for days online
Points that are added for every day since registering.

[MonkYZ]

First i would like to thanks once again Phalynx for this great plugin !

Second, i have 2 small issues:
- Do you think it's possible for the next update to include all Experience settings in the same Control Panel section ? I mean, it's annoying to setup things in vBulletin Options - Experience and some directly in Experience tab. It would be much easier and lovely to have them all in the Experience tab :)
- Before upgrading i've had my old "Awards" section named to "Achievements". Now that you've added Achievements i have two times. Can you please tell me what phrase/variable do i need to revert back to the old "Awards" name ?

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work !

Already on my todo list. In the meantime, you can use the promotions to "upgrade" users to a better usergroup, as see on my demosite InsideSupCom.

Every day since registering says it all. It does not say "every day you are online".

As I want to take benefit of all standard features of vBulletin I have to use that mechanics. Options are set via vBulletin. That will not change.

It's xperience_awards

[SEW810]

yeah hehe, maybe I was drunk when I read that line lol :D :D

Regards pal :)

[MonkYZ]

It's xperience_awards
I've reverted xperience_awards (in Phrase Manager) back to "Awards" but in my Experience navbar i still got "Achievements" instead of "Awards". I've checked the navbar template and it's untouched... What else can i do ?

[Sador]

Already on my todo list. In the meantime, you can use the promotions to "upgrade" users to a better usergroup, as see on my demosite InsideSupCom.Awesome.

Promotion isn't a solution for me, I think. I want them to upgrade a specific right depending on the item they bought (so if they buy extra inbox room that will get upgraded, but nothing else). With promotions it seems to let them upgrade to the next rank, with more rights allround, not just the item they bought.

Oh and your demo site looks nice.

Thanks. Yes, with promotions you can switch usergroups with different settings. I hope you you will install vBExperience.

[MonkYZ]

Phalynx: you got PM, as requested. Thx :)

[Phalynx]

Will take a look.

I'm currently preparing Beta 4. It features a great enhancement to the Promotions: It will show Benefits you can get with a Usergroup. It parses fully automated usergroup permissions and allowances and shows them. This works also with custom permissions. Take a look at the Inside SupCom Demosite or at this screenshot.

[gorentals]

Hi Phalynx

Great job with this mod. Will you be addressing the gifting of items in this next update. Where people can either sell the gifted item or delete it?

Shortly If I get a item as a gift , I couldn't do anything with this item even buy new this item ot I have more than one this item

Thanks

running 3.8.2 and experience 3.8.5 beta3

Problem with the social group ranking.

- Doesn't show number of total members for each individual group. Like group A has 7 members, group B has 5 members. All is set to what is set in the admin panel. E.g. if
'How many Members should a SG have to be included in Rankings? Enter a 0 to disable this'
is set to 1 every group only seems to have 1 member.

- By the way if you set the minimum number to like 2 or 3, the groups in the 'social group ranking' disappear completely...

[Cla75]

I installed version 3.8.4.2 and vBExperience Thanks not work.
If I install version 3.8.5 beta3:
- I have a problem being a beta version?
- I can lose the settings of the "old" version that I have to uninstall first?
- Solves problem of counting thanks?

I recommend the upgrade or not?

Question: Is there a sensible limit for how many achievements one should make? E.g. would 200 different achievements be too many for the system?

Suggestion: Make it possible to collapse the Achievements' categories on the front end. Then it would be much easier to get an overview.

[mirageofpenguin]

Is there a way to actually get rid of this modification? It's pretty much ruining my forums. I've tried uninstalling via the xml, then killing and vise-versa. I just keep getting:
Unknown column 'xperience_done' in 'field list'

I had to manually create the table just to be able to login.

[Cloudrunner]

Okay ... I tried to search, but over a hundred pages ... nuts.

Anyway, I have a question for those that may have been following this for awhile. Has anyone got a file we can import to bring in a bunch of extra awards without having to manually add new ones that perhaps some industrious users has premade for the community?

Yes, I know ... lazy. But hey, I say those that would call me lazy are just too lazy to figure out an easier way to do something :D. J/k btw.

[ConfusedCartman]

I'm using the latest non-beta version, and I have two related niggles to bring up:

First, users get 1XP for giving away XP. That's nice and all, but it's kind of backwards, at least from my view, and I don't have the option of customizing it or turning it off in the "points" configuration page.

Second, users can give points to themselves. While that doesn't do anything bad, it does leave them with an extra 1XP for giving away points, so they can do this as many times as they want and build up their XP.

As for solutions, I have two suggestions: allow us to configure the amount of XP rewarded to those who give away XP and/or compare the person giving away XP to the person receiving it, and if they're the same, deny the transaction completely.

[SEW810]

kindda confused your english, let's see it:

I installed vBExperience version 3.8.4.2 and mod Thanks not work.
You need to install "post thanks" add on from "extras" folder.

- I have a problem being a beta version?

What's wrong with beta version?.

- I can lose the settings of the "old" version that I have to uninstall first?
No, you won't lose any setts. But BE CAREFUL, your customized awards might be lost if you create default awards (vb experience 3.8.4 or later)

- Solves problem of counting thanks?
What do you mean?.
Phalynx (author) can help you if you click on INSTALLED

I recommend the upgrade or not?
I don't know if you recomend it. I do. :D

Hiya Marius, I have finally taken the plunge and have installed this marvellous mod along with downloadsII, but for the life of me I cannot get the downloads to download when an item is purchased through the shop. It is obviously something I have got wrong but I am now all out of ideas on what I have got wrong, I'm confused by the LinkID for DownloadsII bit when adding an item. When I look at the download link from downloadsII I see do=file&id=2 so I entered the number 2 in the LinkID for DownloadsII entry field for the shop item.
When I go to the shop and purchase the item I get the item okay but 'no download' of the zipfile from downloadsII.
I'm going to PM you a temporary admin account, can you look at my settings please Mariius, I am pretty much stumped mate.
Eidolon.

[EidolonAH]

Sorry, ignore last post, working perfectly, I was expecting a download from the shop but I have to buy in the shop then i can download it in the downloadsII section.
Absolutely brilliant work Marius, thank you very much.

[Sador]

*Marks as installed*

It's too bad there isn't something like a way to buy other points or have a point like custom point that can buy any item, no matter what currency (points for threads or whatever) is decided.

Is something like that by any chance on your to do list?

Anyway, thanks for the great mod.

Any hint would be very appreciated! thank you!!

I'm abit confused as how the ponts being calculated actually :/ How can a user loss so many points in a day? Usually what caused a user to loss points?

Greetings, how did you managed to sell a certain file in the shop please? I saw users can get points for uploading, but found no way to make them pay for dowloading.
Any hint would be very appreciated! thank you!!

I chose DownloadsII for file handling, the Links and Downloads Manager seemed excessive for simple file handling.
Okay, download and install DownloadsII, create the categories you require for your files in DownloadsII (do this in preparation for uploading your files for download), then upload the plugin for DownloadsII that Marius has provided in the extras/addons folder that comes with vbexperience.
Add your item for sale in the vbexperience shop as normal, then upload your download file through DownloadsII (be sure to select the correct category for uploading!), when you have uploaded your file through DownloadsII look to the browser address bar and note the number at the end of the address, that is your files ID number. Go back to the item you added in the vbexperience shop, edit the item and add the files ID number in the DownloadsII ID data entry box.
Don't forget to set usergroup permissions for DownloadsII through the usergroups setup in ACP.

(Note, when your members pay for a download, it does not download from the shop, they need to go to the DownloadsII area to access their purchased file!).

How can I edit the navbar link, so it doesnt have the black box around it...see screenshot.

Where do you disable "give away points"?

[mikeinjersey]

why does it still show my Social Groups stats & Visitor Messaging stats in the Statistics section even though I have those option disabled both in vbExperience and in Vbulletin CP ?

Or is there a way to choose what shows up in the Statistics section ?

How can I change the line / frame that circles around "last achievements" on postbit to a black color instead of the default color ?

I'd appreciate it very much.

No problem there what so ever, I am very pleased to have been of help.:)



Has anyone figured out a way of combining 'all' earned points into a single class of points for purchasing an item from the shop.
The system as it is now is awesome, but on my own site I should like all earned points to be spendable on all items.

[FRANKTHETANK 2]

how does the addons work? I upload it in the plugins and products but what do I do after that to edit them?

[princeedward]

Thanks, but what am I replacing, where do I put it?did you fix it already? you have to replace the other experience code to your navbar brader?

:p
