I have this running on my 3.8 board, it works, but with issues.
Single & Multiple Events can be created without issue & Thread is also created without issue.
When settling events is when I get database errors every time about Duplicate Keys.
Are these caused by the same member betting more then one event? If so, how can this be corrected.

Invalid SQL:
INSERT INTO vbookie_news (news_text,news_type,news_time) VALUES('<b>oZ.wildjay-eddie</b> won <b>125</b>!','winner',1265523235);

MySQL Error : Duplicate entry '<b>oZ.wildjay-eddie</b> won <b>125</b>!' for key 'news_text'
Error Number : 1062

Also, when deleting an event on the vbookie main page, then the thread, the Bookie News & Events Section on the main vbookie page still shows the event I just removed.
This has to be manually removed via database.
What can be done to have it remove the event from the Bookie News & Events Section on the main vbookie page when the proper steps were taken to remove an event.
================================================== ======

Also, on the main vbookie page in the Bookie News & Events Section, After bets have been settled, each event only shows one winner & how much he/she won....how can I expand it to show more winners of each event?

I did not read through every page of this thread, but I did search for Duplicate Entery & looked through many pages to find a remedy.
Thank you in advance.

so how the hell do you give new users a default amount of vcash??

[blind-eddie]

I may be wrong, but asking a different way just might help & maybe searching through this thread you just might find the answer.
Top right side, Search this modSearch for changing default vcash.

[theybannedme]

did your suggested search. found 3 people asking the same question and they were either ignored or confronted with similar snide responses as yours.

if you don't know, just say so.

Edit the default value of vbookie_cash in your DB.

Something like

ALTER TABLE user CHANGE COLUMN vbookie_cash vbookie_cash BIGINT(20) UNSIGNED NULL DEFAULT 10000;

should do it. Change 10000 to whatever, and add a tableprefix to "user" if you have one

So, I read on the first post about the fact that this mod does not work for 3.6+ but see other sites that are running 3.7 and 3.8 using it.

Is there one 'all stop shop' posting or several posts that will make it functional with 3.8?

I'm going to start looking through the 160 pages to find the info, but I'd appreciate the help if anyone knows the key to get this working properly

By the way, I'm surprised that no one has taken this one over as it is a pretty popular hack / mod for sports-related sites.

hey dartho... just getting around to this now. I'm trying to add a bookie event to an existing event using the url you provided.

However, when I try to go to this page I get a message saying I don't have permission to access this page. (Not sufficient privileges to access this page?) but I am the admin.

Any ideas about this?
