Thank you for the code, but it didn't seem to work. I noticed that points were not getting deducted from the person downloading, nor was the person who uploaded the attatchment receiving points.

have you enabled the Download Credit System?

Yes. When I switched the code back to how it was, points were getting deducted like usual. Just tried again, and same thing.

This is just a simple db insert, nothing else.

Sorry, I'm not exactly sure what I do with that code?

Go back to post number 39 above.

Oh, you're just saying that it's a db insert?

Hmm..I have no idea what's wrong and I really want to get this to work.

edit - Maybe this problem comes hand with another problem I'm having with the hack - It doesn't give the person who uploaded the attatchment any points either? Any help on that?

OK. You need
1-to install original hack
2-Install Deaths changes
3-Apply the change in attachment.php in post 39
4-put the conditional in postbit
5-make sure that you are not an admin when you test it.
6-make sure the tester *does not* have enough points and watch him being stopped
7-try with a tester with enough points. Jot down how many points he has before, then see if is minus what you set in your vboptions. Also refresh page and jot down how many points uploader has.

Forgot to add: make sure attachment is downloadable, not smaller than thumbsize if it's an image. It has to be clickable.


Works fine for me. Good luck.

The only negative is that the poor member viewing attachment gets deducted every time.

The only difference between Deaths code and this one is the addition of
to give the points to uploader. So it does not make sense that nothing is happening and that it works well without this.

Follow the instructions here.

EDIT: Ah, I see you have already replied :)
