The current Pro version has a hide function included.

I will have the mod author pop on to answer other questions as soon as he is able - please bear in mind that priority support is handled at our forums, and support on vb.org will be significantly delayed in comparison.

You need to create a Donate event with the currencies you are trying to use. You should be able to do exactly what you describe - PM me for guidance if you are having trouble setting it up that way.

Discussion for that is here: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/threa...for-mod-Thanks (i know you are already there, but for anyone else)

Charging to reveal hidden content is part of the pro version :)

Yes, but you will need a quick patch from here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=253

It sounds like the template hook appears twice in your template though, not a bug in vbcredits.

May benefit to have install instructions in package which address how to do an upgrade (if there is any difference)

The upgrade process is identical.

I'm helping code a Harry Potter site after they upgraded to 4.0. Before with this hack in vB3.x, we were able to have on the welcome panel the points standings for the four houses. We accomplished this by creating a user for each of the four houses - Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, etc. Anytime a staff member would donate to a member in each house, they would turn around and donate the exact same amount to the "house" account, so a running tally could be kept of how many points each house was earning. So, for example on the welcome panel it would say:

Gryffindor : XX points
Hufflepuff: XX points

and so forth and so on. I would like to add this back and have it auto update, instead of having to go into the welcome panel (the dbtech one, I might add - fab, by the way) and manipulate it manually every time an update is made. To accomplish this, in the welcome panel coding, what would my code be? In other words, here's my code:

Thank you in advance!!

It appears that users get a credit(s) when they edit a thread. Is there a way to disable this? Seems like a pretty simple way to get tons of points.

You should set a negation amount (equal to the amount given for a post) This will prevent people from gaining credits for editing/deleting posts.

Still looking for an answer to this.

Addtitionally, the points column is NOT showing up on our member list. Any idea why?

and yes, I have inserted the
{vb:raw template_hook.memberlist_resultsbit} in the memberlist_resultsbit template. It still shows up funny on the members page - all the places where the points should be are just dead link boxes that when you click on them take you to a 404 page.

Hello, Can we set credits by threads/posts per forum. I would like to provide X credits for posting a thread in a forum-x, and y credits for posting a thread in forum-y.

How do I do that? Thanks.

Suppose if i want to run the credit or point system only for a special usergroup, not for all registered members, how will i do that ?

Hi there,

I'm looking at a friends site who used vBCredits, i'm looking to get it myself at the moment.

I just wondered if there are actual pages for code redemption or credit purchases? As the only method i could see was to access the options viar the nav bar in a drop down?

I'm just asking as i wanted to make a bit more of a feature of the point redemtion or point puchase. Or would it be easy to take code from the souce and imbed it on different pages on my site?

Thanks, Paul.

Hello!
First of all, this is a great mod! Thank you

I wanted to know if I can integrate "DB-Tech Post Thanks" to credits count of vbCredits? I mean, when you say "thanks", the user who recieves the thanks gets credits. And also, how can I do the same with vbulletin built in reputation system?

Cheers!

Can you make an option for users to BUY with real money the credits? Like with Paypal, Credit Card, etc.

thanks!

There is in the Pro edition, you dont get it in th free one.

Is there a CMS widget for VBCredits?

Hi there is a bug... :(

I assegnate 10 credits every thread started... When the user open new thread there receive the 10 point, but if they edit the thread, they receive another 10 credits :S If an user edit 10 times his thread, him receive 100 credits... :S This is a bug... I want assegnate only one time the 10 credits...

It is possible? Excuse me for bad english... I'm italian...

I too am waiting for the above bug to be fixed. Users can currently really abuse the credits system as it is not negating the points like it should. Any ETA on when this will be fixed?

Until the bug is fixed, assign -10 points for "Thread Negation Amount". That way system will give 10 points and take out 10 points providing with 0 points as a result.

how do you make it so users do not get posts in threads they start?

???????

Okay...I've looked all over and can't find anything.

It won't let me transfer Credits from Savings into the Regular Credits account. How do you transfer your credits? Every time I try to it says "You cannot transfer the same currency to yourself"

I've got a billion credits that I can't spend since I can't transfer it over.

Hello,

is there an "how-to" for displaying the current credits in the nav-bar?

Like here described for vb 3.8

On the Transactions page, the two drop down boxes, one for currencies one for actions. Where are the setting for text color and background color when making a selection?

During the drop down phase, my background is black, and the un-highlighted text is black.

Editing my original post to ask a series of questions now that I have played around with this mod.

Until a few days ago we were using vBulletin v3.8. We had the old version of vBCredits, Post Thank You Hack and vBCredits with Post Thank You Hack. Now that we have upgraded to vBulletin v4.1.2, I have to upgrade a bunch of modes. Installed vBCredits II Deluxe and is running fine. Installed your Advanced Post Thanks Lite, in part because the description mentioned importing thanks from Post Thank You Hack. I now understand that is only available in the pro version. No problem. I certainly don't mind paying for your work. Visiting your site, I also looked at vBActivity because it integrates with your Advanced Post Thanks.

Now I need some clarification and advice so I can decide which combination of products to purchase.

1. I like vBCredits because it recognized credits our members earned before the upgrade.
2. It appears that vBActivity awards points for blog entries/comments. Can vBCredits?
3. Can vBCredits integrate with your post thank you mod?
4. Our members use their vBCredit points to pay other members, buy merchandise, etc. Does vBActivity allow the same earn-spend function or does it only award points?
5. With the old version of vBCredits we were able to run an occasional raffle with points. I don't see that function in the new vBCredits. Is this still possible? If so, how?
6. In vBCredits, how does one transfer points to savings and visa versa?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

I'll poke John over to answer these for you, sorry about the delay. Please bear in mind that DBTech is your best bet for fastest response times to questions and/or support =)

Displays for any user's currency info require code backing them, which is why you cannot create new ones unless debug mode is enabled. Doing that automatically would require that, as there are no global variables for inserting in any old template. What did you used to have there to accomplish that?

Did you insert the resultsbit html above the </tr> or somewhere else?

Yes, you can do that by selecting the forums that apply to a specific event. Additional events can target different sets of forums to do different things, such as charge them vs earning.

You can either carefully setup your events to always select only those usergroups, or disable usergroups with a permission setting.

You can create links with the code in them that will perform the same redemption process, for you to post wherever you want. Instructions are in the redemption manager (pro only)

Currently neither are implemented yet, sorry..

That is indeed what you are expected to do, as that is deliberate behavior and not a bug.

In your post event, show advanced options and you will be an option for that specifically.

I am assuming you already have both currencies setup in vbcredits. You need to have a Transfer event setup for both currencies as well, and on the currency popup on the forums, you then choose the from and to accounts, and it should perform the transfer.

Following that, instead of adding a new display (which requires code) you can modify the existing Navbar display.

I am not doing any special output manipulation other than standard system calls. The theme applied is according to what you installed, and you will probably find this issue elsewhere. Either way, its up to whoever designed it to make it work properly...

vBActivity doesn't deal with spending, but take a look into vBShop as all 3 addons can work together. The points aspect in vBActivity was really just exposing the internal measurement mechanism.

Unfortunately, blog/thanks integration has not been completed yet, and the lottery/bank was removed due to lack of use (and nobody until now has even really mentioning it being missed...)

See previous post on explanation for transfers.

Hey DarkWaltz have you made a v3arcade or vbexperience plug in yet or do you know of any?

how can i disable the multipliers?

what can you spend these credits on?

Yes, on the results bit above the </tr> - the very last one. Not sure if that makes a difference.

As for the previous question, it was apparently a custom made template:

Displays the 10 richest vbc users on forum home. (custom made)

Does this have a tickets/lottery system in it as well?

Is there a way that the system can automatically send a PM Notification when a user donates to another. So they dont always have to go look it up?

not yet sorry. old integrations should still work with the default Credits currency.

Don't put a value for them in your events.

All actions can be charged for, but otherwise take a look at vBShop, triple triad, etc

That old addon should still work if you kept the default Credits currency (even if you renamed it, as long as the column was kept as credits).

As for the memberlist, can you send me an admin login with style permissions?

There is one in vbshop

That is a pro feature for any event.

if i dont use vbshop, vbcredits will help in something (i mean using it)?

You can use vbcredits with any third party addon with a custom points option, otherwise you can charge for any action in vbcredits itself (such as for posting)

Hopefully a stupid question here, Darkwaltz.

I run a forum where I want all currency additions to be made by the moderators. Does vBcredits II support this type of transfer? If so, how do I do it?

no reply from the coder? I was about to buy the PRO but if support is this bad then forget it...
