vbBux / vbPlaza v1.5.8 (Points + Store System) · **Released**: 02-01-2006

vbBux / vbPlaza v1.5.8 by CMX (http://www.cmgsccc.com)
Official Homepage - http://www.vbplaza.com

v1.5.7 AND HIGHER are now compatible with vBulletin v3.5.x and v3.6.x

Welcome to the largest points/store system for vBulletin! READ THE ENTIRE POST AGAIN AS THERE HAVE BEEN CHANGES SINCE THE CONVERSION TO vbBux / vbPlaza!!

Credits: MrZeropage for ibProArcade Support, John for v3 Arcade Support, Caimakale for various additions including ribbons and his other addons for vbPlaza, defi for the addon for Paypal Subscriptions.

New Premium Modification Forum: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=171
If you post a new thread in there, it will be easier to track the answer to your thread folks!

Now with 135 Options for purchasing at your forums and this is still rising folks!

NOTE: As of this version, there is a Template Patcher helper inside the Admin CP. Admin CP -> vbPlaza Maintenance -> Auto Patch Templates, when you run this the first time, it will just list the changes that it has found/not found. If you press Attempt Auto Patches, it will modify the template changes it has found only. It will also modify all styles for your forums. I have tested this on all 3 of my licensed vBulletin production websites and the patches all worked great.

UPDATED MUST READ NOTES:
1) RE-READ THE UPGRADING OR NEW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AS THEY HAVE CHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSIONS!!
2) IF UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION OF eBux / eStore. YOU MUST INSTALL THIS ONE FIRST TO SAVE YOUR SETTINGS. (BUT YOU WOULD KNOW THIS IF YOU READ THE UPGRADING INSTRUCTIONS!! DONT SAY I DIDNT WARN YOU!!)

Branding Free Option
If you have donated in the past, you can get the Branding Free Option for Free by sending CMX a PM on the http://www.vbplaza.com/forums Message Board.
Otherwise, you will need to purchase it by signing up for an account at http://www.vbplaza.com/forums/register.php and then going to http://www.vbplaza.com/forums/payments.php

Features List:
This section has been moved due to its length. Look in the file included insize the zip named features.txt.

Release Notes:
This section will only show the most recent changes. For the rest of the changes, look in the file included inside the zip named changes.txt.

NOTE: If you want ibProArcade, v3 Arcade or vBookie integration now, you'll have to install the appropriate Addon included in the download. The reason for these parts being packaged as Addons, is to make the install a little smaller for users who do not have an Arcade, and because both Arcades cant be installed simultaneously as well. So it saves space only installing the one that you currently have.

v1.5.8 Updates:
1) Bugfix: Quick editing a post with BB Codes, modified the post directly instead of modifying a copy.
2) Bugfix: Some phrases fixed.
3) Bugfix: TABLEPREFIX bug has been fixed.
4) Bugfix: Addon Product XML sheets do not have executionorder in them anymore for vB 3.5 compatibility.

Database Backups Recommended!
Although I have upgraded 3 forums with this script already, it IS recommended that you backup your database before installing this product!!

Upgrading Instructions:
NOTE: THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR UPGRADING IF YOU HAD A PREVIOUS VERSION OF eBux / eStore INSTALLED!!
1) DO NOT UNINSTALL eBux / eStore (UNLESS YOU WANT TO LOSE ANY AND ALL SETTINGS.)
2) Reupload all of the files in the upload folder to your forum's root folder. Make sure that all files are being overwritten. Do not move on to the next step until all files are transferred successfully!
NOTE: It could take a long time to install if you have a lot of registered users, be PATIENT! It should display the messages as it goes along to let you know that it IS working.
3) After finished with step 2!! Reimport the product-vbbuxplaza.xml file via Admin CP -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product. Make sure that Allow Overwrite is set to YES.
4) Refresh the Admin CP and you will see all of the vbBux / vbPlaza Admin CP features at the top.
5) UNINSTALL THE OLD eBux / eStore NOW!! Go to Admin CP -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> eBux / eStore -> Uninstall.
6) You can delete all files/folders that have the word estore or elottery in them from the FTP as well.
7) You will need to redo the template edits listed below as almost all of them have changed since the previous eBux / eStore.

If upgrading from a previous version of vbBux / vbPlaza follow these instructions:
1) Reupload all of the files in the upload folder to your forum's root folder. Make sure that all files are being overwritten. Do not move on to the next step until all files are transferred successfully!
2) After finished with step 2!! Reimport the product-vbbuxplaza.xml file via Admin CP -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product. Make sure that Allow Overwrite is set to YES.

I'm still having the same problem in the store section. I have 47,000 points but it only shows that I have 47.... ????

I've updated all of the files.

just wanan bring this up again, is this a possible feature for future releases?

Sooner95 · #**114** 02-02-2006, 08:20 PM

Coolness.. doing a nice job of updatign this already..

Saw one person state that this will work with vbookie? Is this true still if vbookie is using Ucash, or does it have to be using the vbookie cash?

See all the requests for integration with v3arcade, don't forget about IBpro Arcade, it has a large user base as well. (And no, it would not be stupid to have member purchase a week, or daily pass to play arcade games, its a great way of boosting participation. Forums suck when no one posts.)

keep up the fine work!

Kinda lets them choose to not be in the title wars game

Of course they have to purchase an un-exempt to start joining in the wars again in the future :P

This theory could be applied to alot of other things so that those that find it fun to mess with each other can, and those that don't want to, can choose not to

Or even setting it up so that if someone is on your ignore list, or vice versa, you can't mess with any of their stuff and they can't mess with any of yours

These are great ideas, please say you are going to implement them

the ability for people to buy an exemption would make the title wars totally workable on my forums. Also another great option would be if the admin could also exempt certain users or groups from title wars as I have some members with VIP titles that I would not like messed with.

Before I forget, great work with this.

When I switched the points field back to ebux it started working correctly....

ETA: When you reply under a post it makes the username changes of the previous post not show up.

I'm still seeing this problem after the updates and didn't see anyone else mention it. Is this not happening for anyone else?

lordnex · #**118** 02-02-2006, 10:01 PM

Does not this just change the users name out right in the VB database? That's how the ushop did it. It permanently changed the name. How can it change your name and NOT change the name on a post or such?

Sai01 · #**119** 02-02-2006, 10:02 PM

maybe it's best if i just wait for this to be stable...

rb290 · #**120** 02-02-2006, 10:03 PM

i have vBookie installed, and i want the points to be with the casino so you can buy stuff from the store

lordofgun · #**121** 02-02-2006, 10:49 PM

It keeps telling me my user title is too long. how do i adjust the allowable length?
