what about a way of limiting how many credits a member can daily use?

thats an excellant idea ChrisSy - lets hope its possible - say admin specify in admincp how much each user can use and if they go over that quoto then it will show em the error screen.

Hmm, I guess that could be done by adding an extra field, which resets dayly...

can someone help me i have done this hack and
it wont show how many credits that u have

it wont show credits m8 till you actually earned some.

Simple test - whatever forum u set up to allow credits in - go in there make a new thread and add a small rar as an attachment then your credits will show up.

i left it balnk like tnguy3n said to do
and still dosent show

u left what blank m8 ?
u still need to select a forum in admincp as to where the credits will be added.without this no credits will be issued.

put a forumid in the credit system in admincp then go do a new thread - it will work then.

lasto i did that also as u suggested and it still didnt work

and i keep getting this everytime i try to install it

i have went in and removed the columns called credit
in the db and still when it gets to that point it stops

u seem to be running the install again - DONT

the bit u need to set up is in vbull admincp/ then go to options scroll down to you see the download credit options.

lasto i set the forums part i set it to 2,3 and still didnt work

just been to your forums m8 - maybe u need to go over the hack again.Its a real easy one to install so its got to be a problem on your side as this hack does work as ive tested it to death.

ok lasto go here and look
it still dosent show
how many credits u have only how many post

http://www.nitromanslounge.com/forum...hp?p=83#post83

as u can see here it is installed right

got to register to see that m8 - anyway if you are admin you wont see the credit in your own threads because in the setting above u have excempted yourself.

Remove the 6 and try to do a thread in the section which you desinated and see what happens then.

still dosent show i have posted as a admin and as a supermoderator
and removed the 6,7 still dosent show
i removed the 6,7 before i posted as a supermod

lasto what i am talking about is it is suspost to show how many credits u have available for downloading
and as u can see here it doesnt show it

Are you sure you edited your postbit template, and not your postbit_legacy?

thanks deaths that is what it was i went by the install file and thought it was postbit_legacy

thanks for helping deaths

Sorry guys, for now, this hack only has installer which insert phrases & settings to vb database. I'll write an un-installer & update instruction in some time, hopefully this weekend. :)
and yeah, you edit postbit or/and postbit_legacy depending on what postbit style you use.

Just bumping my question from before, with a slight editing :)

I can't see other's points, I just see my own on everyone elses posts. F.ex, user1 has 5 points, user2 has 2 points. When user1 views a post by user2, user1 sees 5 points, even though user2 has 2 points... Did that make sense?

I can't see other's real point count, just my own on everyone elses...

Anyone know why?

lo tnguy3n any update on this ?

very very nice mod

once 1.2 is out and stable, this looks like a hack of the month for sure... :) I clicked install although prob won't install it till 1.2 .. looks great though.

yep im waiting for update to this and agree once its sorted (minor problems its deffo HOTM) and its even better now that certain pics can be excluded.

I hope the 1.2 version will be out later today:D

I'm still waiting for tn's go signal :/

i have this same error can anyone help??? i see my own points on all of my members posts. this is the code i entered into the postbit legacy

sorry guys, I've been taken up by some other priorities. I postponed this project til Wednesday as I'll have some spare time.

@ lowandloudinc: user following code in postbit_(legacy)

Thanks, that did the trick ;)

ok I got the pictures to work..but I also have the forumid problem. I've only got one forum chosen..yet every forum that has a zip or rar file is included. More importantly, I've had the hack running for 3 days and not 1 member of my board has a credit. I have the system set to give 1 credit for 1 post...but every member of my board sitll has 0 credits...even thouse with over 300 posts. Any ideas?

they get credits after th hack. now when they post they get em. i dont think it back dates em. and im not sure about the setting it to one forum. i havent done that but ill try it and see if i can help you

any update on this as yet ?

yea. any update?

any updates because hate to install this version on a live board and then u release a new one.Held off as long as possible can - Weds came and went :(

sorry, i still didn't have much of time to wrap up this hack. I'll look into it after classes today. :squareeyed:

take your time, classes important, let us know when you have update ready ;)

I got this error when runnig the insteller..

thought an update had been posted then :(

You must be running a hack that has modified your setting table then.
