Thanks a bunch Darkwaltz, I should have just asked in the first place. I tried to search for it, but the vb software doesn't let you search for stuff like "3.5.x".

I'm currently using iCash, but I was always hoping to upgrade this. My forum has a ton of custom work, and until vB hits the big 4.0 I wasn't planning on redoing it because it would require a seriously huge amount of work.

Please keep us older 3.5 guys in your thoughts, as there's currently not many solutions out there for us. Thanks.

well, vborg has this nice little directory
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=198

and then you can select the version you want to go through, and search specifically in them - no need to search for the version numbers.

vB3.5/6/7 (and presumably, 8) are for the most part similar, and not that impossible to up upgrade between them. Also, most hacks from 3.5 will work okay on 6/7, just not going backwards (of course, some hacks offer specific versions which you should always take advantage of). The point is, itll be just as much work upgrading to vb4 from vb3.5 than it will be from vb3.8, so go ahead and upgrade to vb3.7 for now to take advantage of what you are missing (hacks included) - besides vb4 still seems quite a bit away.

Thanks Dark...just some things my users would kill me if I lost, namely the RPG hack that was released for 3.5 and 3.7 users seem to have an awful time with it.

I agree though...sooner or later, I'm going to have to take the plunge. *faints*

I can't register, login or view anything on vbcredits.com

we closed the site temporarily, feel free to get your support here :) and if you are looking for something you know we offer from vbcredits.com, just ask me via PM for the time being.

Can someone tell me why I am getting these error codes on some of my CMPS pages...also I think it screwed up some of my HTML on the site because users with HTML titles now show the script instead of a image or whatnot.

I am currently using vbcredits 1.3. Is there a need to upgrade to 1.4rc2? Will any information be lost if I do?

Hi,

I installed this and it works well -- thank you!

Just one quick question, on the lottery drawing, the log only keep the winner name, but not the winning number -- is there a way that we can keep that result? I went back a few pages, but don't see an answer, sorry if someone had asked this before, if you could point me to that post, much appreciate.

1.3 is totally out of date. I didn't relize people were still using 1.3, its up to you. I'm using 1.4 RC2 v3.7 which you can get on our site, and its working beautifuly. Depends on what addons you want. We've got our vbcommece up on the site now for people to test out for the next few days which is 1.4+

Does this have to do with vbcredits?

Yes, if you want to use some of our newer addons. You will not lose any of your previous settings or credit amounts if you follow the directions for upgrading.

It does, but you will have to change the lottery phrases to use the global phrase group :( bug.

Thanks for your reply!

Seems like there's bug (correct me if I'm wrong)-- every morning, most user profiles was changed back to "can't spend credit", is there a way to fix it?

Thanks.

do you have loans enabled? sounds like you have a lot of negative rating threshholds, which will turn everyone into that. you could lower the threashold even more in your banking settings. to a low negative number

I've tried to disable the loan option -- and lower the award system, but still spending options are disable to some users.

Oh, how can I check on the balance of a central account? And is there a way that I can raise the value of that account? Again, thanks for your support.

does this work for vbulletin 3.7.3?

Because users already have such poor ratings, you have to adjust your bad credit score threshold in the global bank settings, or else it will still keep dropping people's access despite loans disabled. Try putting like -99999999.

Currently the central account cant be directly manipulated (unless you know your way around your database :p) but theres a trick to seeing how much is in it. Enable your admin usergroup to use the post award system with no limits (-1 for all 4 values). In the global specialty settings set to spend from central account. When you go to use the post award system within a thread, the available credits will display the exact amount that is in the central account.

Yes, but you have to use the one here:

Thanks for your quick replied/support!!!

For some reason a few users credits are not counting when they post. I have checked the usergroup options and they seem fine but still their credits are not increasing. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you

thank you for this gr8 mod
keep it up

As always you're very welcome everyone :)

Check those users' profiles in the admin control panel. Their Can Earn permissions might be set to no. Also, you might have some forums turned off for posting, or overrides to 0 for certain usergroup / forum combinations.

Are there instructions on how to use this? We have it downloaded, but have no clue how it works.

vBCredits contains useful descriptions and admin help throughout the admin control panel. Where it is missing or unobvious, you are welcome to ask us here. vBCredits is not yet the final version, so it is missing that sort of thing.

Hi Dark,

I've just transfer the hosting for my forum, for some reason -- the vbcredit is now missing an "award system option". Do you know what I've missed while transfering the host?

do you mean the post award system golden coin? What version of php is your new host?

yes, post award system -- we currently use php 4.x (i'm not sure the exact version, is it the cause of the problem?)

yes, so try this solution

Bitfield Collision: credits_cantearn = prefixrequired

I get this error when I try to import the product-- or any other product actually. :( What's the problem?

Ah, sorry about that, found the fix. Should've googled it first.

:D for anyone else, if you are using vb3.7/8 you should be using the vb3.7 flavor of vbcredits (linked in the top post). If you upgrade from vb3.6 you need to upgrade vbcredits to the corresponding version as well, otherwise you will get bitfield collisions on anything you try to import (not just vbcredits)

Is there anyway to show the total amount of credits earnt on the site. Id prefer it count the total number of points earnt all together and disregard any credits spent or taken away but if it can only count how many credits there currently are on the site then thats fine as well.

this problem fixed -- thanks!

I have another question, hopefully, this will be my last one :-)

A problem occur, am not sure whether it's bug or because I set it wrong in some section, but almost everyday, there will be random member have credit increase tremendously (and this could be an active or inactive member). I have to manually reset it back in the user option from ACP. Can you help? Again, thanks for all your support.

How much tremendously? did you enable unlimited access of the post award system to your regular members?

No :-/ if you enable the display of credits in your memberlist settings, you can see a column of credits for all users that way (plus with sorting :p)

no, only mod can use the post award system -- I set 100 credits for all members at base, and within couple hours, credit of a random member can increase up to 10k -- not sure why

im sure its settings based.. if you send me an admin login i can check you over.

On the first nav template edit I'm getting this message:

double check your template edit - you applied it incorrectly

You're right. ;)

Thanks!

When a user donates "credits" to another user, and they go to check their private message... they receive these errors, and a pm with no body user or anything...

Thanks

Did you set a PM username that still exists in the global vbcredits settings?

hi,

I tried installing the plugin just now on a 3.6.4 install, but the product manager keeps asking me to perform the Fix for old versions. I have gone through all the setup steps in the right order, and I even double-checked the changes I made, but it still keeps saying this.

Any ideas?

-edit-
Hmm, in the version I downloaded from this thread there was only 1 fix, on includes/adminfunctions.php

Here I found a whole other Fix. Trying that now.

edit forum/plugins/credits_installer.php and find

replace with

the fix is no longer relevant, but i forgot to remove this check. didnt think anyone was using such an old version still :p
