ANYONE KNOW WHATS HAPPENING?

That happened to me until I uploaded the XML stuff again.

For some reason... and I'm sorry for asking a simple question... but I am unable to locate where to PAY OUT the event.

Please advise.

ON EDIT:
Nevermind. I had the "Accept Bets Until" time set in the future. Once I changed it to a time in the past, it shows up.

:goober:

Do most people allow members to post events or would you keep that more for the staff to do?

And what are the most common things to bet on apart from sport?

Part 1
AdminCP --> Languages & Phrases --> Phrase Manager --> Add New Phrase

Product: vBookie
Varname: vbookie_max_bet_exceeded
Text: Whoops! Looks like you bet more than 100 bucks. Try again but make sure you bet no more than 100 bucks.

Part 2
In vbookie.php

Find this

PHP Code:

    if ($total_stake > vbookie_get_user_cash())
    {
        eval(standard_error(fetch_error('vbookie_not_enough_cash')));
    } 


After the above, add the following

PHP Code:

    if ($total_stake > 100)
    {
        eval(standard_error(fetch_error('vbookie_max_bet_exceeded')));
    } 


Save vbookie.php

That should do it!

this works really well

just make sure you add it to "Front-end error messages"

}
} 


And change it for this code:

PHP Code:

 foreach ($vbulletin->GPC['option'] AS $option_id => $stake)
{
if ($stake > 0)
{
if ($stake > 10000)
{
$stake = 10000;
}
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbookie_bets_placed (option_id, item_id, userid, bet_amount_placed, bet_odds_against, bet_odds_for, bet_private) VALUES ($option_id, $item_id, " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . ", $stake, " . $odds_against["$option_id"] . ", " . $odds_for["$option_id"] . ", '$private')");
$db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbookie_item_options SET option_n_bets_placed=option_n_bets_placed+1, option_amount_staked=option_amount_staked+$stake WHERE option_id=$option_id");
}
} 


Where you can change 10000 for desired value for max bet amount

That doesn't work right. Because if someone bets 10000 it changes their bet to 5000, and takes the rest of their money.
