By any chance can hire you to make the following features...

1. Add a feature in the admin panel to notify a certain member via pm when an item purchase has been made.
2. Option to add new Point Market Items & Categories. (just basic ones like the three test item you added to it)

Also how do I give you a DONATION for your gr8 support..?

There is already plans for me to allow for a second currency. I'll be doing a special release when vbcredits is due to allow for a second currency among other changes to make this product work better with vbcredits.


In my next release I'll add a few additional test items that you can use however you like. As for a feature to notify Administrators, that shouldn't be tough so if I remember I'll add it as a normal feature. To answer your donation question, there is a little Support Developer link under the About the Developer area for the hack that you can use if you like.

Do you have an idea when the next release will be?

If a serious glitch/bug is found I'll roll a release out within a day or so. However, I'd like the next release to feature some new features based off of feedback that the posters make over the next week. Realistically, I would like to get another release before I leave for San Diego so sometime within the next two weeks. I try to get something out once every two weeks to constantly keep this product updated and evolving until people run out of ideas.

.

Can I pay you to add those 2 features sooner..? :D

1. Add a feature in the admin panel to notify a certain member via pm when an item purchase has been made.
2. Option to add new Point Market Items & Categories. (just basic ones like the three test item you added to it)

Cool deal.. just sent you a $25 donation. :)

It would defiantly be nice if a user received a PM when someone buys a gift for them.

Would be nice for some more gambling games, like poker, texas hold em, etc.... also guess the number ang higher and lower, shouldnt the user be able to select what to pick instead of being randomly generated?

Hi TheMayhem,

The idea and product is awesome, v2 looks pretty good however you should enhance gifts display area in the market and user profile, currently the display is not good if we add Facebook size gift images, hope you make its template more flexible.

thank you.

Is it there already? Member can customize there thread title?

edit: nvm all troubles are fixed :D

Awesome. You're the man ! I love the setting to change currency from "Points" to something else.

This would be a terrific new addition, I've already gotten requests for that!

Well I've figured out what I'm going to do with the next version. Provided there are no bugs found that require me to release something immediately, I plan on working on these areas:

Gifts: I'm going to add Gifts categories, usergroup permissions so that certain gifts can only be purchased by certain usergroups, and the ability to select where the categories appear on the user's postbit. I know some people wanted the postbit location to change so I think by assigning a category to the location will effectively fix that issue.

New Category: Mod Integration. I think it's finally time I begin to start allowing the Point Market to feature addons or integration with other very popular mods. There will be a category release on the next release pertaining to this. In addition, I'll be releasing two addon releases probably to integrate the point market with the Arcade and Downloads 2. I'm not sure what all I'm going to do with each but I'll play with them a bit to see.

There's also a few other little changes/addons that you guys have requested that I'll try my best to get into the release.

With the newest update i have gotten:

Sorry, you don't have permission to access the administrative controls on this page.

If you need to access this page, ask your lead administrator to enable your permissions for this page using the Administrator Permissions section of the control panel.

while trying to edit in the adminCP. I have changed the Admin Permissions and it doesent stick to "Can Point Market"



EDIT:

I was able to fix this issue manually by editing the mysql database table adminstrator and changing the value of market_custom_admin_perms to 1

Is it possible to add the ability to delete a gift from everyone who has gotten it rather than one at a time.

Odd...very-very odd. Has anyone else experienced this issue or is it because your bitfields weren't being correctly updated?

Unfortunately, no it isn't. Currently you can only go through and delete one gift at a time.

Same issue, can't access the pages in the backend. The bitfields weren't correctly updated.

But nice mod!

Mayhem, cant we use vCash from vbookie?

Couple of bugs/minor fix needed:

1. I am getting the same admin issue like everyone.
2. Even though I set the point system decimal place to 0 but the price in "guess the number" is still in 5 digits decimal format.
3. Usertitle doesnt seem to work. I am getting < s > Title < / s >

Suggestion:
1. Under the "market addon features" navigation. The features shouldn't be turned on by default. Don't make it appear unless user purchased the feature to prevent confusion or forum owner doesn't want to turn on certain feature.
2. Option to delete the font color/face/bold items in case the user doesn't want it anymore.

I will report more bugs I found any. As always, great stuff!!

Yes you can, vCash is supported just enter it in the point field.

Which Point Market Admin Pages is it doing this on? Are you updating the admin permissions and it is not sticking to enabled or is it saying enabled but still not working?

Oh I got it to work after I logged to root admins and enabled it for all secondary admins. Shouldn't it enabled by default?

Nah I pretty much disable every option/feature by default on the Point Market. That's to force people to take the time and go through and edit the Admin Options and setup the Point Market the way they want. Otherwise, people won't learn on how truly powerful the Point Market can be with its features and will just use what's in the box.

Any chance of a feature where individual name colors could be made to have different prices?

No but I was considering on adding a rainbow color effect for usernames, which could be charged more.

Could you make a subscription purchase item? Kind of like a timed usergroup change.

I got this error Mayhem. :( Any Idea mate?

That means that vCash doesn't exist. Is that the name of your point field for vBookie and is it located in the user table?

I am absolutely LOVING this feature, mate.

Here's the bugs/requests I have:

1) Please add {vb:raw headinclude_bottom} directly under {vb:raw headinclude} -- This was made a default template in vBulletin 4.0.1 officially. Those who use the additional.css template that vB has as default now to put in all CSS overrides (as not to touch original files), will get a messed up display without this being included in MARKET template!

2) Typo in "$vbphrase[market_error_steal_fail]" - "unsuccessfuly" should be "unsuccessfully" - Missing an l

3) Please consider changing the overall/top table from 95% width to 100% width in "MARKET" template to match all other pages.

4) Please consider a link in the left sidebar to always return to the main market.php summary page. For example, sometimes you do something such as purchase an item, and you're dumped back into the category and have no way back link wise to the main page unless you click back on your browser or re-click a top navigation link.

Great Findings,

I'll be sure to include fixes for all 4 things on the next release.

I thought I would make a post here telling people how popular this is on my forum.

I have had this officially released to my members for 2 days now, and I have had 157 purchases.

The gifts are very popular at my forum!!

Sorry, but I don't understand how the "Test Category/Test Item" works... let's say... if I want to make another Forum Access, or a "ban user" request, what should I do?

Is any way possible to make some items work with an "expiration time"?



Thanks! :D

Mayhem, after vCash, I tried uCash.. still the same. :(

The point field has been entered but no data exists in this field name.

Any idea mate?

Do you have Ucash installed for vbulletin 4 on your forum? If so, does the Point Field Name currently say ucash (Case Sensitive)?

Send me a pm with your site address, a test account with alot of points so i can test and see what you mean.

ah!! Dang!! it was uCash, now ucash and working. :D

thanks Mayhem.

what the Point Field: ? ? :)

Point Field Name: Is the name of the field that you store a numerical value in that the store will use to calculate your purchase money you have to buy items. In general, most of the people use ucash or vbookie currently and there point field names are usually ucash or vbookie. You must have one of those products installed. Additionally, other people have used the reputation field to calculate points for users.

I think the statistics might be a bit messed up. I just doubt that one member has over 400 purchases.

I checked into the admin issues, it seems as though when you change the usergroup permissions to allow admins to access the point market, that setting doesn't stick. Maybe you are missing something in your mysql query that sets that option to 1. An invalid query would be my first guess as to why this issue is happening.
