I got that message too barakuda. I had to go to admin cp and manually set the usergroup settings for each item and category before I could use it.

You need to go into usergroups and set to allow. Everything is set to deny via default.





Any plans to support other currency types? Be great to see this work with Facebook credits.

Hi!

Again i'd like to say thank you for this great modification, as i did it with a small paypal donation yet. 'cause you offer this mod for free i saved a lot of money

My focus is on the gifting feature, that i know from a german social community and want to realize on my board.
Let me do some suggestions/wishes for future versions and let me show you how i know this feature, maybe there are some aspects that are interesting for us too

- I don't like the small dropdown list you did where i can purchase the gifts. It would be
better if you would do this like you did it in other parts. I know it like this:

- In my opinion the graphics you have chosen as gifts are much!! too small even for the postbit. Ok i know i can take bigger graphics. But my suggestion is that in the postbit are used small versions and bigger ones anywhere else. I can show you which size is used in the version i know for the "postbit" or rather for the profile overview in this case:
.
- My biggest wish would be, that you can make it possible to define a schedule for a gift.
e.g. Gift A is only available on a special day, or only at a special time each day or maybe available for only 2 weeks etc...as limited gifts

That's all for now.
Be sure to recieve another donation if you realize some (or even all ) of my ideas

As for the first 2, that's how they have always been in vbPlaza so I'm not going to change them but the idea of having gifts only for certain time periods sounds cool.

I'll take a look into that for when I make the next version.

[Alex@bulletin]

thx.

[Hornstar]

Shouldn't CMX still be given some credit....

Great that you have taken up the task of updating and improving this tho. I appreciate the time you are putting in to improve this.

[off topic]
any chance of updating nominate topic for vb4?

[jmm1]

I haven't seen anyone in the thread who's had this problem, so I'll go ahead and ask.

Also it should be known that I'm a complete noob at this, so bare with me, lol.

When I upload the files, then attempt to upload the xml file, it just stays on "Importing Product, please wait....." and never completes the upload.

Has anyone had a similar problem, or have any idea what I've done wrong?

Thanks in advance.
