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. 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!

Is this modification compatible with ibproarcade??

Thank you in advance!

If you want to disable showing credits for users who has 0 credits, do it this way.

Go to Manage Plugins and edit Display Credits In Postbit:

PHP Code:

if ($vbulletin->options['credits_public'] && !empty($post['credits']))
{
    $template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right'] = '<div>' . $vbphrase['credits'] . ': $<span id="cdt_' . $post['postid'] . '_' . $post['userid'] . '">' . vb_number_format($post['credits'], $vbulletin->options['credits_decimals']) . '</span></div>';
}

vBCommerce has about a week for initial release. According to vborg rules, I cannot discuss pricing details about paid addons, you'll have to talk to me in private or check out the website.

Any reason it's doing this? I know I applied the updated changes you released last night... and I'm not sure if it worked properly before that... I don't remember.

It might be hardcoded, I will check and give you instructions on fixing the width of the table for now.

Everyone can see everyones Credits on showthread but I do not want to display the Credits of Mods/Smods/Admins anywhere on my forum...

Why is there no option to exclude Usergroups from beeing counted by the Credits system?
And how can I manage it yet?

Thanks

You can set usergroups to 0 values to disable them from getting credits. Check out the usergroup editor. No switch yet for display of those users... guess I could try to work it in.

} 


That might not obey a lot of things, so I will try to fit something into 1.4 for this.

Did you reupload the credits_tim.php file from the second update I sent? (Third "release" of 1.3)? That corrects fresh installs for scheduled tasks. When you reupload, you might want to perform the task via the ACP scheduled task manager to makeup for the one you missed.

It's very easy, just install the converter, then uninstall the converter and Icash (the converter was made into product form for ease of use, and once its "installed" (finished converting) it doesnt do anything from then on so best to delete it.

vBookie plugin is working. Check the extras/addons folder from the download.

Not yet for vbproarcade, be patient :-p

I even done it on my test forum, and same thing. Is this a regular problem for the quiz installs on the 3.6.7 version?

If the quiz isnt working even when you havent hacked it for use with vbcredits, you should probably ask the quiz author.

Do u also plan to write a Bank System? Wich is little bit better than the ibank. Nice to have would be the possibility do define a User as Bank User, where the interessting rate is taken from.

Sorry about my bad englisch, but i hope u understand what i mean.

I based the donation fee off the system used by PayPal, which takes the fee off of the amount the donatee receives. I might stick in an option.

I intend to base the bank off of a real banking system, youll be impressed :-p

[dai-kun]

Is it possible to place the Credits: xxx where I want it to be placed in the postbit? I also have a div style that I want to apply to it also so it looks like my Post:xxx and other info.

I've tried using

<if condition="$vbulletin->options['credits_public']"><div class="vb_postbit_info">$vbphrase[credits]: $post[credits] (<a href="credits.php?u=$post[userid]">$vbphrase[donate]</a>)</div></if>

but it shows up with decimals which looks nasty. Credits: 6843546.08957

Thanks

[Darkwaltz4]

Unfortunately the plugin takes care of trimming decimals This raw mode bypasses the checks. I could make something unique for you, but I would want to apply it directly to your board. 1.4 will have a template for postbits to help fix this.

[dai-kun]

ok thanks! I don't like having the credits at the bottom since i have a ton of stuff going on above it.

[SVTCobraLTD]

Just tried donating credits and got this error.

vBulletin Message
Invalid Specified

SVT

[Darkwaltz4]

Did you put an amount above 0? if not you get that message. Although it should say 'Invalid Amount Specified'

also if you put a nonexistant person or yourself, or someone who cant get credits, it should say invalid person.
