Any word on the 3.8.x version?

May I ask, what is the PayPal feature for then?

Any chance to have option to show list of member who have entered on the raffle page, or list all members who entered once draw is made. It just helps with make the draw look a bit more trustworthy

Thanks, great mod anyway, works perfect

wont this do

As for those nagging for paypal option, won't using standard vb subscription system to add an additional usergroup with ability to purchase tickets work. :)

Thank you

Answer to BOLD area in quote: Look at AWCoding's Credit Purchase System. That is exactly what it is capable of doing when using the custom Purchase Setting in that add-on. The next release of the raffle system will include a new user field to allow that system to add "raffle tickets" to a member's account. And if a member doesn't have any "raffle tickets", they will be given an option to purchase them.

In any event, it seems we differ in our logic.

You seem to be looking at it like entering the raffle and purchasing a raffle ticket are one in the same.

When in reality, they are two separate and distinct functions. A member must first purchase a raffle ticket. Then they can enter the raffle.

Think of it this way.. You're at a carnival and you want to get on a ride. You can't get on the ride before you purchase a ticket for that ride. If you try to get on the ride without a ticket, they'll send you to purchase one at the ticket booth.

Whether using credits or virtual raffle tickets, the raffle is the same way. You must first purchase the credits or tickets you need, then you may enter the raffle.

So far as the management being in the acp... That will not change. That was a requirement from the people that first approached me about this add-on. And it makes sense to have a system that is as secure as can be when dealing with tangible items being given away.

Many additions in today's release.

Most user requests have been added to the raffle system.

Hi, thanks for the update,

Just wondered if it would be possible in a later update to include the option to show a list of all members who have entered/bought tickets for the raffle.

Eg

Members currently entered
user1, user2, user3...etc etc

This saves having to keep checking in admincp and some members seem to think it looks fairer when they can see who else has entered

thanks

I'll see what I can do for next week. Maybe earlier, but I have been kind of busy. ;)

I love this thing...

Two things that I see...

1. Can you have the images auto sized? I just uploaded one that was huge. It would same time if that was possible. If not, I will just have to do it before.
2. When you enter the raffle, it goes to a blank screen, can't there be a message that states that you entry has been recorded.

Thanks,
John

The problem with autosizing the image on the raffle detail page is that it would work very well for downsizing, but when upsizing, the more it's upsized the less quality the graphic would have.

So, you'll have to do a little preparation of your images before setting up the raffle.


It should not go to a blank page, you should get a redirect page that says the raffle has been entered.

If you could post your settings in Raffle Settings and the settings for the raffle that is doing this, I can try to duplicate and correct the problem.
