Automated money bar to encourage paid subscriptions

This hack creates an automated money bar to encourage users to support your site with paid subscriptions. There is a similarly themed hack dated July 2004 at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=67425 using different code where you need to manually update the sum of money received. This hack on the other hand automates the process and is for use with paid subscriptions that are setup via the vB AdminCP. You set your monthly money goal, and this hack stores paid subscription amounts in a table for use in creating the money bar. This hack also lets you add or edit the user subscription amounts via the vB AdminCP, and it automatically resets the money bar on a per month cycle. This hack assumes that the payment gateway postback subscription amount will be in x.xx format. Support is offered on an if/as time is available basis but is not guaranteed. If you use this hack, a click of the install button is appreciated.

Is anyone going to write a hack that does this?

1. Set a target a mount in AdminCP
2. Users Contribute / Donate
3. It updates a "Money Bar"
4. Lists the users who contribute
5. Adds contributor Image in the postbit

IMHO, the hard part is already done...

1. See the July 2004 hack for how to do this if that is how you want to manage one value.
2. Use the vB paid subscriptions.
3. This hack already does that if you use the vB paid subscriptions.
4. See below code or go to ACP > Subscriptions > Subscription Manager > select View Users from menu.
5. Set a different subscription usergroup, with a contributor user title and/or a username HTML markup.

Code:

select vb3_user.username,vb3_subscription.title,vb3_subscriptionlog.amount,

vb3_subscriptionlog.status from vb3_user,vb3_subscription,vb3_subscriptionlog 

where vb3_user.userid = vb3_subscriptionlog.userid and 

vb3_subscription.subscriptionid = vb3_subscriptionlog.subscriptionid;

My sicerest apologies calorie.

I did not mean to diminish the value of your hack...... It IS a very good hack. I'm sorry if I sounded ungrateful or obnoxious.

I want to thank you for the eply though because now I you've got my mind going here. Let me see if I can get some stuff together and make this hack myself.

Thanks.

When you manually add a user via the vB subscription manager, just stick in the amount paid and the money bar will automatically do its thing.
