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.
3) Refresh the Admin CP and get to checking your settings!
NOTE: You will be happy know that NO templates have been updated from v1.5.0 to v1.5.2!

New Installation Instructions:
1) Upload all of the files/folders in the UPLOAD folder to your forum's root folder.
2) Import the product-vbbuxplaza.xml via Admin CP -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product.
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.

someone reply lol

This has been discussed time and time again. CMX also gave everyone an update on it a few days ago. I know there are alot of posts here, but you can use the "Search This Thread" option to look for specific things in this thread only and get an answer faster than waiting for somebody to respond.

thanks for that, il go n check...mustve missed it.

still stressed about the other problem with the images tho..

dai-kun · #**1795** 02-18-2006, 04:47 PM

I really love this mod, thanks for everything!
Anyhow, can you make the attachments be bought by their size limit. Like if it's 5 MB, then it costs X amount, and if it's 10 MB, it costs X amount?

CrazyShooter · #**1796** 02-18-2006, 04:55 PM

Possible fucture update

Gizmo5h1t3 · #**1797** 02-18-2006, 04:59 PM

whats all this about charging for downloaded files?
have i even got the correct build of this hack????

its not on mine...lmao

"14) When you click on an attachment, it jumps you to a page to show how much the item costs before it purchases the item."

nope, not seeing anything like that....

If you have the value 0 in eBux Settings, it will ask them when they hit Manage Attachments. You need the Points Per Attachment enabled as well for it to show up.

It's something that I'm looking into a future version for, yes.

maybe cmx haven't requested for one yet. I am sure he will get one if he ask for it since it looks like this hack will be bigger than anything. Too many ideas for it and so far he already implemented almost all of them

Hey CMX, how about making this work with that hide resurection hack? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ight=hide+hack

make it so that everytime someone reply to see the hiden content, a certain amount of point is deducted and that same amount of point is added to the thread starter.

How about that?

I have a ton more items to add to the eStore, I'd rather concentrate first on items that do not require other hacks before working on addons for individual hacks like AJAX Shoutbox 2.0, etc.. But I'll add this to the list to do later.

It would make more sense to me if the options for eStore Items we're stored inside the actual configuration of the item rather than the eStore Settings. For example:

All thief options should be in the options for the Thief action, rather than Manage Settings.

Same for Admin Donate, Donate, and Gift.

Finally, I'd like a PM notifying a person that someone attempted to steal from them...

EDIT: Wow. I just looked at your coding. VERY nice. I was able to add the option to PM a user on a theft in about 2 minutes. You made your own function for it.

Possibly yes, but it also is a bit harder to do this, maybe the options should be separated into eStore Action Options instead of eStore Options. It would be much easier to do that. Although I could add a set of custom variables to the Actions I guess too. Let me think about this one before jumping into it.

Where can I manually add the options back in, since the installer doesn't seem to be doing it.

If you upload the Product XML file with Allow Overwrite = Yes, it shouldnt overwrite your permissions unless a new one was added I think.

Call me a realist, but if you seen my webpage, we usually provide Daily updates for Code Breaker PS2 codes, so I like to do updates as quickly and painlessly as I can make possible.

John is adding the hooks for v3Arcade when he releases the next version March 12th. Stay tuned!

Thanks in advance...

First enable the Forum Setting, Can Buy Access to this forum. Then you have to go into forum permissions and edit the usergroups that you DO NOT want to have access to the forum. Set their permission, Can See Posts/Threads/Make New Threads/Post, set those options to No and it should be setup where they have to buy access for the forum.

As far as the cost, right now there is a generic cost per forum access, I'll see if I can think of a way to make it so you can specify a price per forum without getting too messy.

They just can enter the forum. So my question should be: How can i forbid users to enter the forum before they buy access

Because you have not setup the Forum Permissions to deny them to see the forum yet. Read the above reply, it should make sense.

This is a great hack and my users love it.

V1.0.0 came out on Feb. 1st, we are on Feb. 18th and I think 18 versions have released, so almost a new release a day. If you want to keep up, then you need to update daily as well

It's really all up to you, I add new features / fix bugs as fast as I can. As far as upgrading:

1) Upload all files again (some will have changed no doubt.)
2) Soon as the upload is finished Re-Import the Product XML file with Allow Overwrite to Yes.

btw, when trying this i get: This site doesn't have any forums that need password.

Buy Forum Access inserts an entry into the "access" table that vB uses to see if you are able to access the forum. Buy Forum Password will give you the password if the forum in question Requires one.

Try to goto Admin CP and run Rebuild Datastore.

Name your price, you will have plenty of takers!

Well for now, I'd say the Branding Free Option is if you have donated something via Paypal. Since I'm not equipped to better handle the situation just yet. So if you have donated $10 or more via Paypal, you can remove the Branding Stuff in the template.

Then you do not have any forums that you are Unable to View at that time, and you do not have any forums that require a password. It auto searches thru the forum cache to be sure the user NEEDS access before showing the forums so they wont lose their points by buying something they dont need.

As far as doing the most sold, its not the easiest thing in the world, you have to do a plugin modification though to make it check the most sold items first off. The code to cache the most sold is inside of the eStore PHP files and I do not have time to elaborate more on this as there are still 3 more pages of threads I need to look at. Just look at some of the PHP and search for $mostsold and u should find a starting point.

Buy Access does not work for Forum Password. They would have to use Buy Forum Password to get access to a forum that you have set a Password for.

The Buy Access is only useful if you DENY the Registered Usergroups to a Forum under Forum Permissions. If you dont allow them to see / post / use the forum, when they goto Buy Forum Access, they will see the forums that they do NOT have access to.

If you set the Points Per Attachment option to 0 in the eBux Options, then there will be a userfield when they goto Manage Attachments to set how many points they want the image to cost.

At this time, gifts do not expire. The only options that are actually able to expire currently, are the options that do not use their own Script Location.

Would it be possible to have the avatar selection area of the store sort categories in one drop down and then the avatar name in another drop down right next to the category drop down? Then have the pic of the selected avatar next to that?

Right now it sorts by category, then by item name I think. But it could be better useful to have it display like the Quick Forums Links at the bottom of some pages, I'll look into that so its better sorted.

It means if you had a version before 1.1.6 and u had upgraded to v1.1.6, u would need to redo the Template edits as some may have changed.

I guess I should add into the code stuff like   in the next release for better documentation.

dan35: I have fixed the removal problem it will go out in the next release. As far as the tax percentage calculations, I'll look into it to see if I see any problems in the calculations as well. And the Download feature, I have changed it to use the "Attachment Cost" set in the eBux Options, if the cost doesnt match properly with whats in the Attachment database". You can specify the amount of points each attachment costs, if you set the Attachment Cost in the eBux Options to 0, and the points go to the uploader already.

2.How can use this ext. with vbookie?

Do you also think of enabling users to buy special styles? Like, No ads style or inserted extra information to style..Any style like this would be really nice item to buy..

You would change this code ...

Code:

if (($touser['usergroupid'] >= 5) && ($touser['usergroupid'] <= 7))

to something like ...

Code:

if (!is_member_of($touser, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12))

Where you put in the groups you want to protect there.

As far as vBookie, the new version of vBookie supports eBux, so u'd just need to download + install the new version.

One more last question- it says "you must" change the templates to make them work correctly. If mine seem to be working okay, do I still need to change them anyways? I haven't ever had any issues and it doesn't appear to be having problems even after upgrade. I will change them over if need be though.

Thank you again!

If you do not want your online icon to get pushed down to the next line, then you need to make the template changes. That's what the template change you are referring to fixed.

This is the part I want... The JACKPOT AMOUNT

Lottery Name: Lottery
Jackpot Amount: 497.93
Ticket Price: 100.00
Lottery Ends Approximately: 02-18-2006, 08:13 PM

Thanks in advance

You'll have to do a query from the TABLE_PREFIX . "estorelottery" table and cache the lotteries into a variable, then modify a template to use the values you have set.

this particular user said he could not login to the site either. well, he could log in, but got a database error when he tried going to the forums.

This was fixed in a previous version, you should update to the newest version and it should be fixed.

Thanks

Yeah, I need to add another field to the user table to keep a track of this. For now, all you can do is goto Change Username and View its history.

(reminder. My issue was deleting the gift from the profile but gift still showing up on post bit)

The gift should show up in the profile if you have more than 1 of that gift. For example, if someone gave u 2 beer's, if u delete only 1 of them, the first beer will show up in the postbit as it only lists 1 of each item in the postbit.

Any ideas?

Need to redo the Template Edit.

It should be in eStore Options as of v1.1.6 I believe.

It should have shown in their User History if the actual thief attempt was successful AND you have the eStore Option, Log Thief turned on, as well as the Manage Options -> Thief -> Log History set to Yes.

Goto the Admin CP, then Manage Options, then view the item that is causing that error, scroll down to Table Settings, Set Name is there, it seems it cant find that field in the Item Table Name specified.

Not sure why because the showthread_start plugin only has 1 query to send the points to the thread creator. There are other queries that happen like when you are supposed to receive your next bank interest, etc that should only happen once every so often too.

Very odd, I'm unable to replicate this bug, do you have any other add ons to eBS. Also maybe try to disable any new products you have installed recently to see if they are caused by them. On my Test Forum, I goto a thread with 7 points and it still has only 10 queries.

What happens if you install both?

Will any problems happen if you do this?

And just wondering which version you guys think is better and why?

Thanks

Not really sure what could happen here, just know that if u install both, u will receive double the queries and maybe some conflictions too.

As far as answering which is better, I'm unable to answer that question since I'm in a biased position

Seems like there needs to be a check to see if the user has PMs disabled or not.

Oh, good point, I'll have to check for this before sending the PM off in the next release.

Current Points Total:

also is there a way to cut the page that comes up ( the extra step) to ask that you want to buy the download or not? just asking. thanks for the hard work and its working just fine!

This is caused by a bug before when someone added the attachment before the imagecost field was setup properly for the "All Attachments Cost X Points" was added. It will be fixed in v1.1.7

someone reply lol

Definitely will have support, just I am not going to hack the arcade PHP files, the makers of the arcade scripts are going to add hooks / do the hacks themself. So we are awaiting the new arcades to come out before I can add stuff like Arcade Pass, etc..

But clicking on eStore i get these errors as admin and member
Where do i change i have searched the admin panel for hours ...

Your usergroup does not have permission to purchase eStore Options.

But i have set permissions so only banned and users waiting cannot see ??
HELP PLEASE

Admin CP -> Usergroups -> Manage Usergroups -> usergroup you want to have access -> eBux Settings towards the bottom -> Can Use eStore at all -> Yes

A.) Ban users specifically by userid to not allow to view the ebux store
B.) Fix that exploit

How did they accomplish getting the points that fast, assuming they did not use Thief of course.

I'll add a field to the user table so the user can be disabled access to the eStore completely for abusive users.

i cant use it, as on the estore.php page, where it shows all the categories, im not seeing any clickable images....buttons etc, nor can i see any of the gifts , or anything...not even getting a red "x"...lol

as a fresh install, is there anything ihave to do, to get the ball rolling??

all the settings and image paths SEEM to be correct??

also, i got this when i checked out the description filepath for the thief option and added it to my browser......

or is that because i havent actually purchased it...ie...just followed the filepath in the browser??

im stuck, and im desperate for help here...lol

Try going to Admin CP -> eStore Options -> Rebuild Datastore

Also, you are not allowed to goto the action.whatever.php files first. You have to goto them via the estore.php main store page.

I'll add a ban feature to ban each individual user in the next release.

Yes, inside eBux Settings, change the Cost Per Attachment setting to 500 should be what you are looking for. There is a slight issue with this that will be resolved in v1.1.7 as well, stay tuned!

Anyhow, can you make the attachments be bought by their size limit. Like if it's 5 MB, then it costs X amount, and if it's 10 MB, it costs X amount?

I could possibly add another setting to do something along those lines, let me think about it.

its not on mine...lmao

"14) When you click on an attachment, it jumps you to a page to show how much the item costs before it purchases the item."

nope, not seeing anything like that....

You dont have the eBux Setting enabled for --> Points For Attachments Enabled?

Gizmo5h1t3 · #**1799** 02-18-2006, 05:10 PM

rebuild datastore - done.....and still no images.

points for attachments enabled...yes, it was enabled by default....and still no change.

absolutely gutted here, as this is the BEST hack i have installed, and i cant get to use it

lordofgun · #**1800** 02-18-2006, 05:16 PM

DOH nevermind about the extra queries. Those were being caused by the countdown in sig hack. rrrr.

Apologies for that, CMX!

Did you upload the images/estore folder to your site and if you view the eStore main page and in IE it shows a Red X, right click on the broken X image and choose Properties and verify that the path to the image file is uploaded to the right spot.

There is a slight issue to be worked in in v1.1.7 for the All Attachments Cost X Points, stay tuned!
