My forum is v3.8 would that change anything?

http://www.ffomanager.com/forum

The FFO Bookmaker is my vbulletin board.

OK, I run 3.7.0

Initially the vcash wasn't showing up, so i put it in postbit instead of posbit_legacy and now it shows up.

I am having problem with the hook for newevent, I add a thread, check the box and it goes to the thread, not a new event. I have added the code in post #2274 to no avail

I am pretty compentent at vbulletin and I have recheck my template mods, and know they are they as the check box is there, as well as cash shows up on postbit.

NVMD,
I got the code to add to the plugin off of a different thread than the original, which is so buried, i still haven't found.

It was a syntax, no closing } all works fine now

Is there a quary that I can run to remove a specific users bets. He is playing games and I want to be able to remove them and warn them but not ruin it for others. Yes if it continues I wiill disable his access but I want to warn peeps first.

Thanks

Has anyone made this work on 3.8 ?

Edit : I made the code adjustment as posted on the previous page of this thread. However as noted in #2282, creating a new event is a problem.

Edit : Post 2218 https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=2218 solved the problem for me. Working nicely now.

installed on 3.8.4 with the help of this

have this working for 3.8.1 PL1. This works for any forum version with the right modifications done. I will write up exactly what you guys need to do to get it working.

1: Upload all files in upload folder
2: Import product-bookiehack.xml
3: Goto ACP > Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager
4: Edit Redirect to vbookie.php when posting new Event by replacing the entire code with this
PHP Code:
if ($newpost['postvbookieevent'])
{
$vbulletin->url = 'vbookie.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "t=$newpost[threadid]&vbookieeventoptions=$newpost[vbookieeventoptions]&do=newevent";
eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_postthanks_ moderate', true, false));
}
5: In template Newthread find
PHP Code:
$threadmanagement
. Above that add the following code
PHP Code:
<if condition="$show['vbookieevent']">
<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend>$vbphrase[post_a_vbookieevent]</legend>
<div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">
<div><label for="cb_postvbookieevent"><input type="checkbox" name="postvbookieevent" value="yes" id="cb_postvbookieevent" tabindex="1" $checked[postvbookieevent] />$vbphrase[yes_post_a_vbookieevent_thread]</label></div>
</div>
</fieldset>
</if>
6: Download ICash and install
7: Change ICash Options. Change the Money Row to vbookie_cash

This will definately work for you. I have left off showing the points in the postbit and the link in the navbar. If you need to add these the code is the same as the original.
Sorry but where exactly does Step #4 go? Thanks!

But still dont see any option on making a new thread to add new thread to create a new event,all other bits are working ie vbookie in nav bar and the link opens the correct page but with out any events as i cant add them any help guys please!!!

Duhh read the last page ROOT

Rammie how is that working for you? are you using vbcredits with it ?
I have a premium version of game room but nto real happy with it. we want more stats and winner announcements.

Id be willing to look at a whole new gameroom system poker and other card games, something with a prettier interface and more details.

oh and multiple developers so they don't all just disappear

Looks like some people have this working on 3.8.4. I am hoping to get mine to work shortly.

Have done all the template tweaks suggested but cannot see how to add a new event. vBookie is turned on, disabled and then re enabled the plugin, any one got any suggestions? Our vbulletin is version 3.8.4 pl 1

Everything is there except the new event!

ok got this working, you need to make sure you check the forum permissioning very carefully, just adding vbookie to the admin usergroup for example wont do it, you need to check each forum you want to post events to.

It seems Andreas has removed the link in the main post to the fix I did for 3.6+

This, and at least one other fix I know of are listed below ;

Working on 3.8.4 pl1!!

Damn, I saw Paul's name in here and I thought he was going to reveal that he is working on a new version... lol

merk_aus has been working on a re-write of the script which would be compatible with 3.8.x. The last time I talked to him was about 4 weeks ago and he was preparing instructions for release.

That sounds very reassuring. (sarcasm) :)

A month to prepare instructions is a long time. Has he given up?

I don't understand why people have dropped the ball with this mod. There is obviously a demand for it as it still has many installations.

Just because there is a demand for it, doesn't mean that people can drop everything to code something (for free). I too hope he releases it soon, but Im sure it will be ready "when its ready."

:D

I would go absolutely wild if this works.

I tried reading through about 100 pages of this thread since I'm not too much of a coder. I'm gonna try to install and follow the fixes and see what happens.

I'll post again when my board dies on me :((

I've pm'ed both tjdrico and Andreas to see if they would allow me to attempt to port vBookie to vBulletin 4.

That would be Great, it seems Andrew Green is not returning, sux I paid for somthing that is not going to continue.

Andreas gave permission to merk_aus to fix bookie for 3.8.x and 4. I talked to merk and he's basically waiting to see what changes need to be made for it to be compatible with 4.0. PM him if you don't believe me.

I hope we get this for 4.0 :)

Excellent news my forum basically relies on this!! :D i've taken it off my forum for the time being as i'm planning on changing to vb4 as soon as its out of beta, also i'm changing server soon.

Grat news though vbookie is excellent :D

Any news on the upgrade to vB4?

If that's the case... then that + not hearing back from Andreas - it won't be me working on vBookie.

sorry to beat a dead horse I am new to forum programming and all this is a bit much, all these various edits etc.

Do they ALL need to be done to get it working on 3.84?

I have this mod straight outta the zip file, can someone just e-mail a quick summary of what needs to be done to get it working?

I dunno what is 3.5, 3.6 or 3.84 :(

Paul has posted links whats needed to be change to make it work for 3.8..

Such a wonderful hack, and there is such a big demand for it.

Mines works, but I have a general question, in the vbookie.php where you can find the open / closed posted bets etc, well I've got a number of open bets which threads were physically deleted. (Thread | Info).. When I click thread it just says 'No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator' I know the thread is gone and there is no delete option but would it be possible for me to get these removed from the vbookie.php and how can I do this?

Know what else would be awesome, some sort of hack which works alongside vbookie and posts updates / latest events etc on the forumhome index.

Thanks!

You need to go into your mysql database and physically remove them from there.

When you say yours works, is that in vB4?

and if so, does it look ok, and what did you do to get the alignments correct?

I hope it will work eventually for vbulletin 4. I seriously need this mod for my football forum. I sit waiting patiently.

It seems gameroom has been abandoned, I' hope this gets updated to 4.

Yep, this is an essential part of my football site as well. I can't upgrade to VB 4 until there is a vBookie version that works with it or there is something equivalent out there. I fear that it could be a while before I'm able to make the leap to VB4. I would definitely pay $$$ to support this mod or purchase it.

You can run the SQL queries in AdminCP in the Maintenance menu.

For a complete vBookie reset run these SQL queries:

Reset everyone's vCash:

UPDATE user SET vbookie_cash=X;
where X= vCash (eg 500)

To totally clear all past events:

DELETE FROM vbookie_news;
DELETE FROM vbookie_bets_placed;
DELETE FROM vbookie_item_options;
DELETE FROM vbookie_items;
DELETE FROM vbookie_groups;

Some other useful vBookies queries people might find useful:

To remove a specific event:
DELETE FROM vbookie_items WHERE item_id = 'X';

replace X with the item id which you can get by mousing over the info link in the affected vbookie event.

To remove a news event:
DELETE FROM vbookie_news WHERE news_id = X';

To Abandon/Mitigate a wrongly settled event:

UPDATE vbookie_items SET item_status='CLOSED' WHERE item_id= 'X';

This will change it from Settled to Closed. Then click the Abandon Event link in the thread. This only returns the original stakes. vCash won as a result of the incorrect settlement is not taken away and changing the winner in the thread has no effect.

With the fixes works brill on 3.8.4 patch level 2!!!!
superb mod

Sorry, SecondV, I don't check this forum much.

As far as I'm concerned anyone is free to hack up my original code and modify it to suit vBulletin 4. I also want vBookie on my own forum once I upgrade it to 4.0, but after spending all day coding PHP, I tend to spend my free time playing Team Fortress 2.

Rather than modifying the old code though, I might just write a new version from the ground up, since my coding's better now than it was 5 years ago. ;) That said, I wouldn't advise anyone to hold their breath waiting for me, as I've been thinking about it for ages, and haven't actually done anything yet...

I would be so happy if you could do this or someone else in the long run as running a football forum, this mod was the heart of my forums lol. I've Not upgraded yet, but will be in under a months time. Also I've removed all mods from my site bar a few, ready for the upgrade.

All the best for the new year.

Michael

Ditto, I already shelled out money to Andrew Green for Game Room and he has deserted vbulletin I guess.
I liked the look of this better from the beginning but the warning kept me from trying to install it on 3.84

Have my fingers crossed this is released for 4.0...

vbookie runs fine for me on 3.84, cant remember though what version I started on. I would gladly pay for someone to get this up and running for vb4 and I am sure that there is enough people here to get a few of us together and make it worth someone doing it properly.

My users loved this mod as well but I upgraded to 4.0. Someone updating this would be great :)
