Thanks.

Point is that our board has some different faces. Fun with glowing usernames is nice for some forums, but does not really suit the others. It doesn't bother me if they find the shop (they better do :) ).

caimakale - can you be bribed into making a gifts hack ;)

:) thats the attitude..

Im a designer not a hardcore coder (more like code hacker)... want to be friends ;)

I am going setup a sandbox forums and see what I can do to help make it look better. I have the next couple of days off so I should be able to throw somthing together. Do you have some layout/design idea's?

I could redesign it if today wasn't the super bowl. Maybe I will work on it during the week.

When I have the eStore closed, people are still able to purchase items. It doesn't actually give them the item, but it takes their points and removed one from the quantity.

I dont really have anything in mind, so whatever you could work on would be great.

xYarub: That's one of the bugs caused by the store not saying its closed when the setting is not enabled. That will be fixed in v1.0.6.

I have started a "gifts" feature, I have it so it adds the gift into the gift table, all thats left is the plugin's for the gift caching and such...

EDIT: UGGH that gift hack is atrocious.... The thing caches all of the gifts everytime showthread.php is called. If you have say 3000 gifts in the database, and 300 people viewing a thread at around the same time, can you say server crash?

There has to be a better way to do it, as it would suck bad to put a separate query for each new user that has posted on that page for the thread too.

I will look into it if/when I finish the ribbons addon. I have the xml complete and have tested it for the ribbons. I am trying to incorporate it with the old ribbons hack, that way if your users have purchased ribbons in the past and you still have those tables in your database, it will pick right up where you left off.

I currently have it displaying ribbons that were purchased in the past on my site, now I am trying to make it into an action so you can purchase more ribbons through the store.

I'm going to release a new version here shortly today, v1.0.6 that will make adding stuff to the store a bit easier and some of the fields have been changed, so just a heads up on that.

Okay...that's good. I was gonna stop working on it until later tonight anyways (gotta game to watch). I will download and install later tonight so I can see what changes I need to make on my end.
