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!

I have a new feature request. How about a way to show how many credits someone has with images rather than numbers? Rather than just displaying the number, show a row of images. The more credits they have, the longer the row. (Like the reputation display).

I am considering tying this into the rank images system.. I dont really like having like coins and stuff...gets annoying and doesnt serve much purpose except to look cool.

btw, 1.4 feature list is pretty much set, and i will be putting it on vbcredits.com tonight or tomorrow morning. Be on the lookout for it :-p if everything tests okay I will release it on vbcredits.com, and then here a day later.

Just curious, was this ever corrected on these other boards, and if so, was it the same solution/problem for each one, or will we need to contact you directly each time? Just wanted to be sure there wasn't a universal solution before I bugged you with a PM.


EDIT: Well, I mentioned this on vBcredits.com, but I thought I should mention it here just in case it's helpful. I changed the hook location for the User CP Cell Creation to usercp_complete, and not only did the Manage Credit's link finally appear, but all the points from our old uCash hack attached to all the appropriate accounts. Which is weird, because before I did that, everything was at zero. Don't know if that's of any help to anyone, but didn't think it would hurt to throw it out there.

[Darkwaltz4]

Yes, the problem was there was a hook that doesnt exist in versions prior to 3.6.7

1.4 has some changes for the usercp links, so...youll be updating anyway :-p

[Digital Jedi]

Heh, yeah, I figured as much. I just noticed that the link doesn't show up on every page of the User CP, just the first page. Doh!

[AyeCapn]

I must be dense or something... Where is the "Update Counters" screen that will allow me to do mass-updating of points?

[Darkwaltz4]

>.> just wait for the next release and you can use the link...

Each Infraction/Warnings must carry some minus points based on the severity of the Infraction or the Infraction points. The members who get the Infraction will loose the vBcredits according to the Infraction point.

Like, when somebody reports a Post. The person reported should automatically gain some vbCredit and the poster of that post should loose some vbCredits.
