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

compatible in what way?

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?

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.

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.

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

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

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 :)

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.

Yeah, I kinda figured that out, though it's not very "pedestrian" reading. 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! :)

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.

i installed it and running perfectly...but my probs is, i cant see it in my profile fields below join date, location and post. i think there is somethin missing in my postbit_legacy coz i cant find its templates there...

hope anyone here can help me with this...

Cannot get to show up in postbit_legancy. I have done the template edits for postbit_legancy only but still no luck. Do I need to do all the other template edits as well if I only want it to show in postbit?

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

Thanks much for this hack and detailed instructions.

Edit:

Wish to display image instead of Credits.
Could you please tell me how to do this?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

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.

Thanks a million man. I'll most likely be installing this tomorrow. :)

Modify Accounts by Criteria
Manage Usergroup Awards
Manage Forum Overrides
Manage Drawings
Moderate Donations / Awards
Moderate Deposits / Loans
Mass Credit Updater

None of those features are working for me in the adminCP... I'm pretty sure I uploaded everything correctly but they all point to an index.php file that was not with the download materials....

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).

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

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

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...

you are activated now :)

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?

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.

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

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?

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.

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.

Okay.

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.

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.

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?

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

Thank you Darkwaltz4. I am going to check it.
