vb.org Archive - MySQL Field Not Updating

I'm trying to update a field called "credits" in the user table when a forum member posts a new thread. The code below runs with no PHP or MySQL errors, but the "credits" field isn't updated ($cost isn't subtracted).

Can anyone offer guidance on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

Rebecca

PHP Code:


		
			
// Critpoint cost of each critique 



$cost = 2; 



$critpoints = $vbulletin->userinfo['credits'];







if ($foruminfo['critforum'] == 1)



{



if($critpoints < $cost)



{



eval(standard_error(fetch_error('not_enough_critpoints')));



}



else



{



$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user 



SET credits = credits - $cost 



WHERE userid = '$vbulletin->userinfo[userid]'



");



}



}

*EDITED*

Never mind. I figured this out. I'd been formatting the userid incorrectly in the last (quesry) section. In case this is useful to anyone else, here is the corrected/working code:

PHP Code:


		
			


// Critpoint cost of each critique  



$cost = 2;  



$critpoints = $vbulletin->userinfo['credits']; 







if ($foruminfo['critforum'] == 1) 



{ 



if($critpoints < $cost) 



{ 



eval(standard_error(fetch_error('not_enough_critpoints'))); 



} 



else 



{ 



$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user  



SET credits = credits - $cost  



WHERE userid = '" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "' 



"); 



} 



}

Hope this is helpful to someone else! :)
