Can I use vbookie with this bank system?

hmm, sounds like there was some sort of missing file or otherwise invisible errors (many production environments have them turned off). if you talk to me in a PM, i could arrange assisting you in a proper installation

yes, the vbookie integration addon is here:

I was wondering.. where is the thing to reward a user points from a post/thread..

thats the post award system, which is now split into several limiting settings in the usergroup editor, so that you could even grant the power to regular members without it getting out of hand. or give all -1 (unlimited) to your admin group to recreate what you were used to in 1.3 :-p

One of my forum members had less than 100 credits, and dropped to -97, any idea how that is possible?

are you using the latest version?

if so, check to see if induction and activity are unchecked in the applicable negation awards in the award settings for vbcredits. having them checked may lead to negative totals if you dont realize how the math gets applied in those situations (and you dont configure accordingly).

friendly reminder to mark as installed everyone :D you can disable all alerts from updates if thats whats keeping you from clicking

i got it installed finnaly...but how do i add things like a store where they can buy things to attack the other peoples points and stuff like that..like buy items with points...

*sigh* if you had been reading the first post or following along.. :D

vbcredits is the points system only. i have other addons in development which cover selling stuff for points. there are previews for both at vbcredits.com

also, thats 4 in a row who asked for support that didnt mark as installed :( its a small sign of appreciation to me. i dont mind people who dont mark as installed and dont ask for anything, and i really love everyone who marks as installed and still doesnt ask for anything... but the rest of you :D:D to me, marking as installed is as good as giving a donation, and its just one click out of you :-p

sry about that...after i quick relpy i will mark installed!
sry!
anyways...what is the shop called...
vbcommerce?
cant wait!!
plz reply back telling me whats its going to be called and a estimate on when its coming out...like within a month?
btw...cant belive you did all this and the stuff ur doing is awesome!!

:-p thanks berry05, i didnt mean to zero in on you in particular - i just noticed it happens surprisingly often around here, and in a common trend.. but anyway

umm, i cant go into great detail on the shop addons because vborg doesnt like it (even though they will be free) but you can see a lot more about them at vbcredits.com, and of course you will be totally open to asking me anything there.

vbcommerce is an all-purpose itemshop which you can see a preview of on the homepage of vbcredits.com currently finishing up development to open up beta for our premium members
vbcustomizer will be in development this summer after vbcommerce is available for everyone. it will cover stuff like bold usernames and italic thread titles. you could technically sell them in vbcommerce, but would be better integrated in its own addon.

Pardon me for not reading this entire thread. Chances are someone else has asked this already. If so perhaps the info can be placed in the initial post or something as it usually is..

Anyhow, Before I update I would like to know what has been changed and improved....... Usually this is announced as part of the initial post but all I saw was a list of features and nothing pertaining to this particular update..

Thanks so much for the work put into this. This is one of the best modifications ever for sure and very useful...

sorry, i never formally announced the change through the announcement system because its still in rc, and i havent put together a full list of changes since 1.3 - but there are over 100% new stuff over 1.3 :-p i did put up a list of stuff from 1.4rc1 and rc2 here..

Hi, I am new to vBulletin so please forgive my ignorance. I have vBulletin 3.6.9 and I just downloaded and installed vbcretits per steps 1-7. I did not add all the codes below step #7 in the instructions as I don't know what that is about.

After step 7, I see that vbcretics is shown in my Admin Control Panel.

However, I don't see the credits showing up in the forum under the members.

Can someone please tell me what is wrong.

Thank you.

Hi, I am new to vBulletin so please forgive my ignorance. I have vBulletin 3.6.9 and I just downloaded and installed vbcretits per steps 1-7. I did not make changes to the templates in the install instructions shown toward the bottom because I was not sure if I need to do that. These are the codes i am talking about.

After step 7, I see that vbcretics is shown in my Admin Control Panel.

You basically skipped Step 3 of the instructions:

Your not going to see anything displayed in your forum if you don't make the template edits that put them there.

Great, it works beautifully. Thank you so much for all your help.

My next question is how to I show the top members with the most credits. Say the top ten members with the most credits.

Perhaps if there is a little display box or something on top that show that list. So we know who has the most credits. This way, I will know who has the most credit.

Also is there a secondary credits category say for a period (say credits B). For instance, if I want to run a contest for the month of May, starting May, everyone will have zero credits B. Then at the end of the month, the one with the most credits B will win.

Thank you

vbcredits has a richest users list that displays in the donation/drawings link in the usercp. in the specialty settings you specify how many users to order by. in the main settings you select which display amount is ordered by (displayed). you can exclude groups from the list in the usergroup editor. i intend to have more modules for richest users in the next major release (after 1.4 final). you can also in the memberlist settings, choose to include a column for credits, which can also be ordered high or low to create a forumwide ranking.

there is no secondary thing like that, but in the next major release there will be logs which could be viewed by date like that

DarkWaltz, I had not gotten a chance to upgrade to 4.0RC prior to moving servers. This is the first forum move I've done alone, and I've run into a peculiarity I was wondering if yoy could enlighten me on. I got this error after the import:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method vBulletinHook::fetch_hookusage() in /home/******/public_html/cogonline/forums/plugins/credits_plugins.php on line 46

I tracked it down to two plugins causing the error. Define Showthread Template and Display Navbar. Once I turn those two off, I no longer get the error. Looking at my old hooks, I don't see any differences between the working forum and the imported board. Everything is identical (barring a couple of hooks that seemed to have switched places on the listing).

I also don't see anything peculiar in line 46:
Any ideas?

EDIT: I should mention that in one of my first attempts to fix the error, I re-imported 4.0, allowing an overwrite, and I re-uploaded the plugins folder from the ZIP file. Both to no avail.

you are using rc1 - please download and use rc2 :)

you may need to apply this to get the rc2 import to work (within this post):
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1655
because you are using an old version of vb

I was concerned, being that I didn't have the problem prior to the move, that trying to upgrade would complicate the problem. Bit if you don't think there will be an issue, I'll give it a try.

I believe I know what happened now. When I uploaded my files, I didn't allow for overwrite. In which case, I had already made the older vB fix, but that changed file was never uploaded to the new site. I belive a "doh!" is in order.

right, but the need for that was rectified in rc2 :D so if you just went with upgrading that, it would both bypass that error as well as put you at the most recent version! (so upgrade now if you havent already ;))

Fantastic just installed and its working in minutes, amazing job DW!

is it possible to write all post awards to Transaction Log ?

glad you like it redeemedwarrior :D

and vrom, if you mean the Post Award System (where admins add/deduct credits from post authors directly from the thread/profile), then those are already written to the transaction log

Hrm, I upgraded, but I never bothered to check the forums before uploading the old file. =/ Oh well, I presume that having the file edits wont make a difference, right? We don't need to change the file back when upgrading, do we?

that file edit you made only updates your hook/plugin system to the vb3.6.6+ version.

again, the change made to the way rc2 does plugins no longer requires the vb3.6.6+ version (so no file edits needed).

so.. upgrading your vbulletin or vbcredits renders harmless whether you made the file edits or not :-p

** EDIT** Ignore this, i've just found the file. How stupid do I feel :D

I'm installing this hack now on VB 3.6.9. I don't have TMS installed (I don't think, i've never heard of it) and i've done all the file edits mentioned in the installation instruction file.

It says I now need to import the supplied product-credits.xml file through the Products/Plugins system in my admincp. I can't find such a file... I have bitfield_credits.xml, hooks_credits.xml and cpnav_credits.xml, but no product-credits.xml. What do I need to do?

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer :D

i am having some problem with the award system and for some reason the vbcredits website doesn't work

when I try to award someone some points, it says available is "0.15" and i can't donate above this number, why is that? I thought I can award people as much as i want if i choose?

response appreciated

sorry, my site is having issues..

check your specialty settings that you dont have "spend from the central account" turned on.

Waltz, I just noticed that since I moved servers the copyright is coming up as strange characters: +?†?Ÿ

I checked, and I don't seem to have a credit_copyrights phrase. It's in the templates, but not in the phrases. Do you think re-importing the product will fix that, or should I try to add the phrase manually?

how do you get it to start workin once installed....

help someone! I have installed but cannot find it on my forum

thanks :) got it fixed lol, i was all confused but thanks

and good luck with the site issues, i know how annoying those can get

Please help.

I recently installed this mod and it seems to work fine. However I don't undertand how this work as there are some members who get less points then the members that post less posts then they did.

Also, there are some members who are getting negative points. Does the system has a "punishing" point for members who don't post daily?

Thank you.

there is no such phrase. however that error indicates your files or product xml are mismatched - upload the files and reimport the product file to get that sorted out (it wont hurt anything)

did you do everything including the template edits?

make sure you are using 1.4rc2. in the main award settings, uncheck the activity award from the applicable negation awards. with it enabled, users LOSE the activity award * negation multiplier, if they do NOT qualify as active during the time period

also a note to anyone using the latest versions of vbulletin (3.6.10), please let me know if you find a problem with submitting forms that has to do with vbcredits. I dont think there is any off the top of my head, but i might have missed something

Then why the heck do I have $vbphrase[credits_copyright] in my footer templates? (Not arguing. I removed it and it did nothing. I just don't know how it got there. :erm:)

Funny thing. I forgot I posted here and did just that. I saw something wonky in the Admin CP, and figured I hadn't imported something. Sorry about that. :erm: But thanks. :D

:-p well you are one of the faithful people using vbcredits since 1.0, is why you had that still there. needless to say, copyright is not handled via a phrase any longer

The credits, what it`s doing exactly. Becausse I read the "installation" in the directory vbcredits/INSTALL and there is a lot off stuff what I have to do.


But what I`am searching for. Is a hack, that`s make it possible when there is a click on a hyperlink. It will add 10 credit points or more. Is that possible with this hack? And is this hack for credit points something where my members have to pay for?

actually the installation should be in line with all the regular large-addon hacks..

also, aside from maybe the profiles or threads, clicking on arbitrary links does not earn you credits. i might put in something for that in the next major release, as it will have a more comprehensive log and be able to better regulate something that sounds quite exploitable :-p
