16 screenshots!
|
May I be the first to say, this hack is your biggest yet, and congratulations!
|
Hehe, yep, it sure is my biggest hack ever, the instruction file has 900 lines in it, and the screenshot .zip is 111kb =/...
It took me a long time to make this hack, with a lot of problems on the way, but I did it all by myself in the end, and it works... Everyone feel free to install it ;) :) |
This is simply amazing N9ne! Well done on such a brilliant piece of work
|
Good job, my man. You outdid yourself this time. ;)
Can it be set up so you can have a time set for the user to re-verify their license? Like yearly or monthly? |
Quote:
Well any sort of re-verification system would need to be implemented into this hack, as there's no such 'reverification' in this hack as it stands. |
Ummm...
|
found a problem...
attached below... |
This could be of some use to me someday, nice work with this, looks like a great hack
/me clicks install |
found another error.
options not showing in Forum Options |
Great hack, to bad that it doesnt use the license check system similar to vbulletin.org, It doesnt check to see if they enter valid license data used at vbulletin.com, Its just a custom license system in case you ever wanna add some sort of license for your site. Its pretty good though but doesnt use any offiecial vbulletin verification of licenses.
|
I don't think vb would allow other people to use a license check system similar to here. I think that was N9ne's purpose of the hack to make it so if you have a license system you could use this hack to make it easier.

vBulletin.com would never allow multiple useage of the license system on websites. Although, it would be good for a lot of people. N9ne, simply amazing hack! Good job :D |
Okay, currently I've got a separate usergroup for my site's paid members. Will this hack would let you set up a system that would denote paid members to your site and allow them and only them to see a particular private forum?
|
omg, I own an Internet Services Company and this is just what I was looking for. I was going to make it myself untill I read you were going to ;). And thank god you did. I don't have the time to make it!
Great hack and another GREAT job N9ne! |
can this to do if user post over XX posts than get the licensed??
|
Wow excellent job n9ne - now that i can use this :(

Da_gotti: re-apply changes to forum.php, and user.php in the admin folder, make sure you have everything in the right places.
X-Fan: I'm not sure what you're suggesting, but if you install this hack, you can run a simple query, so it makes all users in that paid group licensed... Run this query, replacing X with the usergroupid of your paid members group: UPDATE `user` SET licensed = '1' WHERE usergroupid = 'X' |
N9ne, with this hack, does it allow only those set to be licensed members to view a particular private forum?
In other words, is this just an easier way of doing a paid members group without having to create an entirely new usergroup? |
That's correct.
|
Excellent! That should make life easier :)
One more question for you - is it possible to have different "types" of licensed users? By that I mean currently I have two different paid membership groups (and that has meant 3 usergroups - one for each member group and a third group for those members who are in both the other groups!). |
It's possible but would take a lot more work....I really don't have time to do so, as it would mean re-writing a lot of the hack.
|
Very nice hack, thanks :)
|
No problem Koopa. Please click install, as I can then send updates should there be any bug fixes in this hack (there's likely to be a bug somewhere with what, 50 file modifications :o)
|
Very Very Very nice.
/me drop kicks the install butten. |
Very cool:)
Could come in handy soon;) Thanks!:) Satan |
At last, someone release useful hack... it has been for a while.
Thanks /me installs |
OMG!! This hack will make is big for sure, I am gonna use it later on, once I finish my forums up.
|
lol AViO, I doubt it will make it big, but it's here for people to use anyway :p
|
I would install it, but I have absolutely no use for it. Still, nice job, N9ne. :)
|
i may use it in the future :D does it allow for you to have license numbers for a member?
id love to see it with an integrated cp panel foe users to edit ther license etc it got that? |
amazing man
thanks u very much :) |
Very very nice.
Great job with this hack :) |
[high]* mr e drools
[/high] maybe i'll make a forum that needs a license system so i can use the hack :D |
N9ne i have a question with this part
in register file u say find '$avatarid' replace with: '$avatarid','0' i think it should be like this '$avatarid','$licensed','0' am i right?? and add new template part do we not need to add a template about attach file error message like:license_error_noattach something like this?? |

cant work out whats wrong. any ideas? |
Quote:
No, I'm pretty sure that you should leave it how it is in the instructions, so when a user registers, he registers as unlicensed. |
Quote:
PHP Code:
That is from the instructions, if you have done that step correctly, you should be able to see the options... |
Quote:
yes they show up in each forums own options, but in the vBulletin Options part, there is another option for Licensed Users Options, but nothing shows up here. maybe im doing sumthing wrong, ill look over it again. |
