Fully integrated with vBulletin and easily integrated with third party scripts:
Many hacks allow you to specify a points system by entering the table and column for the points data. Use TABLE: user COLUMN: credits when integrating vBCredits with such hacks (note: you may need to include your table prefix with some hacks)! If you are unsure about integration - ask me!

Why is this version not the gold version yet?
vBCredits 1.4rc1 went through a long bugtesting process at the official site, and rc2 is largely bug free in its entirety. However, *it is missing most of the admin help and post/thread deletion actions are temporarily removed while I figure out how to fix them.

Footnotes:
Thank you for using vBCredits, I would be happy to hear your feedback and correct anything that comes up. For more tailored support, please indicate you have installed this hack. Use of this free hack requires that you retain the copyright line at the bottom of the forum (PM me otherwise). If you do not agree with this, please do not use vBCredits - thank you for your understanding and support!

Okay - i'm obviously mentally ill today.

I'm attempting to place my $template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom] into my USERCP_SHELL template with no success and i know its going to be some stupid little thing, but i placed it where i assumed it to belong (And then 6 other places) with no success.

Also, i'm sure this was asked before - but there's not way to make the points retroactive, right?

Go into AdminCP > Maintenance > Update Counters

You'll see a section to award points retroactive.

You need to put the template hook directly before the closing table tag. it gets its own tr tags so it needs to be directly before.

also, to award credits retroactively, go to update counters and run the form at the bottom. I will be including a new admincp menu in 1.4 to link directly to it.

For now we are stuck with the hook, but in 1.4 I already have the code switched around to use the postbit. The difference is it is now a template edit, but at least you can all display it like you want

[adc-arab]

thx dark i can't wait tell v1.4 came out -_-

[Darkwaltz4]

Well as it stands right now i have two large companion scripts, two addons to update, two addons still to make, this to upgrade, and a whole host of other large unrelated scripts.

I am rushing, but trying to sleep here and there. You can help keep my morale up by clicking the links under 'Show your support' though

It's Not a phrase. It's a feature called "Donate to Members (usergroups). Sorry I just found it under Update Counters. I think the instructions are not clear, where can we configure vBcredits in ACP.

One more thing I found is, there is no separate permissions who can give positive credits and negative credits??

iCash allowed everyone to give positive credits, and only certain usergroups to give negative credits. Awarding positive points to each other member was a very useful feature in my forum. I miss it very much. I appreciate if you could add that feature, as soon as possible.

[adc-arab]

i already clicked install and Nominte ^^

also dark can u add DownloadsII mod as a Third Party ( lol asking too much just when u aren't busy ;p)

mod link

for Programmers

it would be awesome to let the ppl pay for the download like 100 credits to dl a file and gain 100 credits for uploading it would be fantastic

I've inputted the hook where it should go with no change in my user cp.

Rawr.

Dont forget ALL awards can be negative and fractional (even 'bad' actions can be positive, and vice versa)

Ahh great, I feel kind of stupid as I did not realise there was any per usergroup settings.

I do however have one (hopefully final) question, is it possible for this system to be disabled on a per user / usergroup basis. I can see people abusing or attempting to abuse the system and the ability to take away their use of the system would be very useful.

Edit: Ok I see it's possible to disable credits on a per user basis. How about on a per usergroup basis? I suppose I could create a usergroup with all values set to "0" however this still does not stop users donating credits to that usergroup.
