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, and if you like it you can nominate this for MOTM. 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!

note that a "referral point" is not a credit award and if you dont want to award for referrals set 0 in the usergroup settings with the rest of the vbcredits awards.

It is already set as 1, the problem is there...

at the top of the forum i get this message

Warning: Division by zero in [path]/plugins/credits_plugins.php on line 237

and in the middle, I get this

This is link for demo of our item shop for vbcredits (vBCommerce) this system is in heavy development, do to how powerful this system is, it's taken a bit longer to make, but we're shooting for a release very soon. We feel that it will be worth the way for our users. I've included a link to our demo of how its looking.

Hope that helps with your question.

OOOOOOOOOH !! I want it I want it !!!

Just a quick question or 2 lol.

That looks AWESOME !!

Here goes.

1. can members set up their own shops.
2. can members buy/sell/trade
3. can we or could we setup a VBCREDIT ebay style bit aswell lol

Can we set up a main central warehouse/supplier.

Where we can sell goods, items, and members can then stock their shop, and or buy and sell etc etc

Crikey im getting carried away.

Okies back to basics,, could it be configured, to show a link in postbit of users, goods/items bought, and or sold...
Can it be configured so that we can GIFT an item to another member.

Mate FAB work as usual from you guys... please keep us all posted !!

looking at vbexperience, i dont see a way to bridge it without hacking something. not to mention they kind of look like they are shaping up to compete with me I will put together a converter though for anyone who wants to use the points they have in vbexperience in vbcredits...

actually I just checked the files, and your problem is that you set the interest interval to 0 when it also needs to be 1 or higher in the global bank settings.

If you dont want to give interest to users, set 0 as their interest rate in their usergroup settings instead.
If you dont want certain groups to have any savings or loans set 0 for the appropriate limits in the usergroup settings (maximum savings and/or maximum total loans)
If you dont want anyone to use the bank at all, you can put a really high number for the number of days required before the bank can be accessed, in the global bank options (like 99999)

There are many integrations which use vbcredits, found listed here (as well as links to download those addons)
http://www.vbcredits.com/projects/vbcredits/index.php
There are also hacks which can use vbcredits simply by setting a value in the third party hack's settings. I generally dont maintain a list of such hacks because they can be made without me knowing about them but if you have something in mind ask and I will try and point you in the right direction.

I would like to encourage you to continue discussion of vbcommerce at my site instead of here; this thread is for vbcredits and the staff might object (and have before).
But to answer your questions: yes to everything that you asked, except it goes a bit deeper than that

I have opened up the demos for the addons to guests, so you dont have to register to my site to check them out (but if you want to ask something about it or give your feedback you should do so there)
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/commerce.php
also opened up my vbcustomizer demo to guests as well
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/customizer.php?do=usercp
both are strictly nonfunctional for the time being.

I have also recieved a little help with the financial burden of developing this stuff sooner without going broke a little more details in the new announcement on my site. basicially, im now under contract to have both vbcommerce and vbcustomizer completed within 3 months. just thought everyone might be interested in that.

[TimberFloorAu]

Many Many thanks, apologies to yourself and VB.Org staff for mentioning off topic stuff.


Will of course log into vbcredits.com and discuss there

[Captain Tycoon]

Any possible chance of making it so that no-one can take a loan?

[Darkwaltz4]

yes, just set the maximum total loans to 0 for the usergroups you want to disable loan access to.

[ALil'Hope]

I'm confused... What exactly is the purpose of this mod? What do users spend their points on?
