I've allowed all usergroups (excluding guests, which has not become a secondary usergroup) to access the Point Market.
Nevermind I found out.
The Market directory was changed.

Okay as long as everything works :). I don't want any bugs on this product.

Heh thanks. :]
Great product by far. I'm hoping it'll outdo vBPlaza.

It has already outdone vbPlaza, by being free and having a version for 4.0

Thank you :)

What would I want to edit in order to change the percent stolen for a "Steal" item.
I'd like to make a "Steal 10%" item instead of the 25%.

~SnZ

Regardless of the fact 1.0.4 isn't out yet, and im dieing to have it, I have come up with ideas for more features:

• Steal System Reworking - Instead of stealing set amounts we can go into the "Edit" option of a single steal item and change up to 5-6 integers which include a percent of chance and a percent to steal so for a single steal we can have for example:
  20% Chance to Steal 10%
  14.78% Chance to Steal 25%
  11.11% Chance to Steal 40%
  6.5% Chance to Steal 65%
  3.3% Chance to Steal 80%
  1% Chance to Steal 90%
• Lottery - A Lottery System where users can buy tickets for a chance to win a Lottery which is defined by the Administrator. Options can be as so it has a set amount, or the Lottery increases by a percent of points collected from ticket buyers.
• Gift Market Options - Option to require purchase of access.
• Admin History - Shows a History of Who Purchased What, Who Stole from Who, Who Created What Gift - in the Administration Panel, or displayed in the shop given by a permission.
• "Can Administrate Point Market System" - An option in the Administrator Permissions which changes the permission to administrate the Point Market System.
• Bank - A place where you can put in money to save from theft and earn a set amount of interest.
• Buy Permissions - Buy more PM Space, Avatar Size, etc.

Found where you can change the amount stolen with one steal.
It's in the market.php.

I have tagged this mod. I've been waiting for something like this. I use vbCredits so I have to wait till they release their version for 4.0 before I can use this :)

I am heading to Vegas on Wednesday of this week coming up. My goal is to get 1.0.4 out this week before I go. With that in mind, realistically we are looking at a Monday release for new market items and administrative features.

I really like this product and I've installed it but, I would really like to see forum access included in this mod. I could really use that and I think it would encourage people to post more so that they would have access to other forums. Another suggestion I have is to create downloadable gifts. For example, my forum is for Custom Content for the game, The Sims 2 so, it would be very beneficial to sell content for points. People would become more active for the content.

Hi this is fab. Just wondering could i make my own gifts in photoshop etc and then upload in my ftp, would it work and show up in my market place ??

TheMayhem. I've your mod installed. And as admin I set up the discount for admin group to 1 = 100% = all free for me. But I want to restore my default admin title and remove all glass, colours etc... but in my admincp I can't see the HTML code. Can you help mw with this? Thanks!

vbcredits.com version 2 is due to rlease soon for vb4 and its also free

its more popluar once its released

i would suggest you try adding features like they do, it more poplar once its released

Absolutely, all you need to do once you have uploaded new gifts is to go to the Admin CP, under the Point Market menu click Custom Gifts. From there scroll down to the bottom and create a new gift. Within that gift just link the image icons to your icons for your new gifts. To make it a standard gift that everyone can buy simply go to Market Gifts and add that custom gift you just created.

In 1.0.3 there is only one way to do this. You need to go into your market (not the admin cp), and use the refund option for available refunds. In 1.0.4, you can directly edit purchases by a particular member and restore them to their defaults.

any plans to integrate a paypal purchase for points ?

I have come up with a converter idea within one of the next releases. It won't be on this release because I want to get a new release up in time before my vacation. My idea is to integrate "converters".

This would allow posters to convert for example:
Reputation for Points
Posts for Points
Real Money for points.

My only issue with this is I don't have a paypal account to correctly test the last part. However, once this mod becomes more popular due to the vbcredits release there is an expected category that this will fall under.

The hack has been updated to 1.0.4. I am really-really sorry to those who wanted Forum Masks / Permission purchases to be included in this version. I simply did not have enough time and wanted to get a new release done before I leave for Vegas. The next release will have it, I promise you.

As for everyone else, enjoy the new version :)!

when you want to uninstall, that user bought username color.How to clean the username out back to original username color? Becouse rite now we have problem with our server performance, and we want to know the problem, but when we try get rid of point market, the username color still with another color. Even I tried to change their usergroups, its not change ! Please help me .. thanks.

Upgrade to version 1.0.4 ;) Then go to the Admin CP, search for the user, edit them and you will find the settings for the Point Market on what they've purchased. Just simply delete everything related to username colors/glows and you should be good.

Interesting. I am able to obtain a refund for font face/color but I get a "no permission" page if I try to get one for italics/bold.

How do you update to version 1.0.4 thanks

Redownload the zip folder uploaded for the Point Market System in the original post of this thread. After that, download it, unzip it. Reupload all files and select to overwrite any files that it prompts you too. Afterwards, go to your Admin CP and go to the Product section. Under the product section reimport the Point Market product. Select overwrite to yes on the radio button below it. Then you need to go in and reedit any settings for the Point Market.

P.S. I'm currently in Vegas :)!

Is there any chance that you could say buy a random item? Like for example, i want to set up a bunch of virtual sports cards. In the shop, i would say 'purchase pack of cards'. When you purchase this, you receive a card (or group of cards) that are all completely randomly picked.

I've been looking for this forever now. Is there a way to do this?

Ideally, i could set the rarity of how often a certain card is randomly picked, but beggers cant be choosers right now. :D

Sounds like a whole different mod than what this is coded to do.

Yes, it is a different mod entirely on what he was suggesting.

So anyways the next version will deal with Forum Permissions, right now I have:
- Individual Forum Access
- Primary Usergroup

What else should I add?

<i>users to use a point/credit/ucash system,</i>

What I don't want to put any system of these, will it be possible to integrate it with vb's default reputation points? Is it done or am I missing anything?!

TheMayhem I've found an Important bug. The market button "purchase" don't work in Firefox but in IE it works. How can I solve that? Thanks!

A user also reported a no permissions page for trying for a refund for usertitle strikethrough because it didn't actually work.

Do you mean purchasing an item that purchase button doesn't work? Is it for all items or just some? What exact pages is this occurying?? Please let me know immediately as this will spawn an immediate release once I return from Vegas.

Yes in theory this would work. I've never tried it but I believe the user field stores reputation in a numerical value, which means this would work.

New bug:

Try to mouse hover on a member username in a thread, you will get html code output instead of "$username is online/offline". Disable this mod and it works fine again. I have checked this on multiple forums which has installed this mod and all experience the same error.

Would be nice if you can provide quick fix until new version release. Thanks

Installed. It works like a charm thanks. it's possibile to code a item that add a smile on the forum?? ;)

How do you refund or undo something? I see there are settings for this in the Admin panel, but I can't find it anywhere.

I can't do anything about this bug until I return from vacation. So far there are 3 confirmed bugs in the Market that will have to be addressed in version 1.0.5. All bugs are trivial or minor and shouldn't effect the overall operation of the Market.


You are currently not showing as having downloaded this mod or installed this mod. Please download the most updated version and click installed to receive support for the mod.

Okay marked as installed. Currently using 1.0.4 and the refund/undo doesn't seem to be working. Is there a way for an admin to manually remove a gift from a member if the undo time has passed?

I don't believe gifts can be refunded on the Point Market and I know there is no option in the Admin CP to remove a purchased gift. That being said there are plans to add it into Admin Functionality on removing purchased gifts in either version 1.0.5 or 1.0.6. So in short, wait a week or two and I'll have something out for you.

Could you please have a look on it? :)

Yes this works when testing. If you would like to use vBulletin's reputation system instead of an independent point system, please do the following.

1: Go to the Point Market settings in the Admin CP and set the Point Field Name to reputation.
2: Adjust all prices to not include any decimals for market items. So instead of 33.45 for an item just charge 33.
3: Adjust the Point Field Decimal places in the Point Market Admin CP settings to 0.

:)

I need help! How can I delete the gifts from a member? I gave myself a gift to know what it'd look like in the postbit, but I don't want it any more. How can I get rid of this? Can this come in the next update or is there a way I can do it now by editing the code within one of the .php files?
