Via custom points you can add or substract points from the experience. This is if you want f.e. give a user a bonus of 100 points for good work on a tutorial. Go to AdminCP, vBExperience, Manage Custom Points

Thanks, it worked. It might be good if the person can show off the item! That is some one else can view the items as well. Or has it been done!

Edit: it has been done...

Great job!

Translation Bug/Missing:

English: Award/Awards

German: Auszeichnung/Auszeichnungen (at this Time it is untranslated!!!)

Request:

Is it possible to give us a Option in AdminCP to change the Title from vBExperience to something we like?

No one from the Users knows what "vBExperience" means. At this Time i have to rename it after every Update to "Aktivitätssystem" (Activitysystem) in a lot of Phrases.

Maybe "Award" is not 100% correct, it has been used widely on some german sites. Nevertheless will I change it in the next release.

As for the wording vBExperience - Just search and replace it in the file vbulletin-language-deutsch-380.xml and import it. It will not be an option in the ACP, as this needs to be translated on multi language forums.

Just a minor thing it still says RC2 when you click on vBExperience from the menu!

updated!! Good work.

Thank you! :)

This is the Reason why i suggested it! :confused:

Default could be still vBExperience - it is much easier for everyone only to change one Time "vBExperience" in any Language or other Title he wants via a Option in AdminCP. To change all Phrases is much more work for everyone. Maybe you did not understand what i mean?

[german]Genau wegen der Mehrsprachenkompatibilit?t schlage ich es ja vor. So br?uchte doch jeder im AdminCP nur eintragen wie er es gerne h?tte und niemand m?sste jemals wieder die ganzen Phrasen des Titels f?r navbar etc. ?ndern. Ich meine ein simples Textfeld das dann automatisch die Phrase ersetzt. Du verstehst? Gibt es auch in dutzenden anderer gr??erer Hacks wo die ?berschrift sonst missverst?ndlich ist.[/german] ;)

Phalynx,
Excellent product ... thank you :)

What would be the chance of having a couple of extra awards?
1 based on referrals and 1 based on paid subscriptions where the award goes to the referring member (think of it as a commission)

No, as with multiple languages on ONE board (e.g. eng-ger-pol-rus boards like Inside Earth) you have the problem that Experience-Erfahrung-etc... has a different name.

Feel free to create it, with the CDP and Manage Awards you can create such things.

Thanks. How?
I can see that I can create a new award to give points when a member referrers a new member, but how exactly do I create an award that will give that referring member points based on their referrer making an Paid Subscription? And will it be able to repeat those points for every future payment that is made?

This most recent update has fixed my problem. Thank you!

Would you be able to add the points on postbit for the next award Phalynx?

I also need some help for creating an CDP for Vbulletin Glossary and Vbulletin Membermap.
Ive read the instructions too but dont see how i can read out and calculate the data.

also i have dupicated images of the awards in postbit (set to max. 2) only with ie7 and tested fine with ff.

thanks,
chris

Please explain more.

You will need to read out the data the mods are producing. Ask the mod creator of Glossary and Membermap if he can provide a CDP for this. Many other authors have already provided a CDP for vBExperience.

Hello ,

When i need to do update there is error message ,

Update vBExperience points

جاري تنفيذ العملية على: 1

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/includes/class_xperience.php on line 219

I hope there is solution for this ,

Sorry, I don't recognize arabic chars.

just got myself vbadvanced and installed the modules for it.
works great with

vb 3.8
vba 3.1

Thumbs up ;)

I want to add awards to the post "user cp" on the front page in vba.
but where to i find the awards postbit code in ?

so i can just copy paste it to vba postbit / usercp

Not possible from just pasting some template code. You would need to do programming also. I'll look maybe I do a module for vBExperience 3.8.1

hi, I've 12 medals in acp/manage awards and only 11 appears in www...xperience.php?go=awards, Fields are filled well.

Please PM me a temporary Adminaccount so I can take a look.

sorry, it's on local disk for moment

Version check does not work.

Yes, I noticed this already. It has been fixed in 3.8.1

my shop items don't display on postbit every setting is right

5 on postbit
5 on break
display: under rep/under post

still doesn't show up..

This is a great mod, i had it installed on 3.7.3 with no problems. I upgraded to vb 3.8 yesterday though and now when I post a quick reply i get redirected.
This still happens after every plugin is disabled on my current skin, but with a new skin the problem only occurs once vbexperience is re-enabled.
I don't know how to fix it on my current skin, but I'll be changing the forums skin next week anyway. I'd like to continue using this mod but with quick reply redirecting to the post it takes up more bandwidth. Is anyone experiencing this problem or have a fix?

There is something I don't understand: it seems the point should be floating,since there are floating numbers such as "Points for attachment views",but the point results in integer.

So, question is: how do these floating numbers work?

Bug
For admincp folder rename users

New updated

Turkish Language file
Mevcut Türkçe dil dosyanızın üzerine yazın

Is it possible for my user to use points to purchase Paid Subscriptions?

Where can we get that one at?

why Helpful Award don't works? I installed thanks addon, and it calculated correctly in user points,but Helpful Award don't works.

Do you have a modified postbit template? Check for the template hooks.

Cannot confirm this.

there are converted to int by saving to DB.

Cannot confirm this. Where is it wrong?

Thanks for sharing! But this file contains only a few phrases, fewer than your 3.7.18 translation.
Can I give you the 3.8.1 language too? There are only a few new strings.

Currently not.

It's in a private beta, but will be released today.

If you install the thank addon, you will need to modify the helpful award to include the fields brought by the addon.

I've attached language files from spain, french and turkish. Please take a look and repost it fully translated. There are mostly only few strings missing.

Thanks in advance.

This happens to me too.

thanks And Wait Lang Arabic

There is nobody who will do the arabic language. There is only a version for 3.7.12, which is outdated.
