Lottery Addon For The Store Hack

Info:
This addon for the store hack gives you the ability to add a Lottery on your store. A lottery with the same principles as a normal lottery. Users buy a lottery ticket in the store and after the specified enddate you or any other admin execute the lottery script in the admincp wich search for a random user from the database and checks if the user bought a ticket and if so then he will receive the jackpot if not then the lottery stays online.

The jackpot will be increased with the amount of the lottery ticket everytime when a new member buy's a ticket.

What to do:
2 Query's: 1 new table, 1 new row.
3 File Edit's: Admin/Index.php, Store.php & Storeadmin.php
1 Template Edit: Store_bit
2 New Templates: store_lottery_error & store_lottery_updated

Some Features:
- A new action on the store: Lottery
- Winner will be picked randomly
- Winner will be pm'ed with a winner's message
- Losers will be pm'ed with a loser's message
- Define Start Date of the lottery
- Define End Date of the lottery
- Define title of the lottery
- Define the amount of a ticket
- Maximum of 1 Ticket Per User
- And more....

This lottery addon will only work with the latest version of the store hack and is compatible with any Vbulletin 2.*.* version.

Have fun with the addon,
Lesane.

On my board...When lottery ends and no winner is chosen the people formerly in the lottery are still included in the lottery. shouldn't the users be reset when the lottery ends i.e. the ticket expires?

Thanks.

[Limpkinw]

Another request, is it possible to display the people entered in the lottery on a public page?
Thanks.

[BigJohnson]

Yes both those requests seem very nice if they could be done. I would love to see them both created.

[hypedave]

will it be possible to setup Multiple Lottery like, 1 lottery for each day, my members like this alot and having the set the lottery every time one ends is ok, but I rather have a lottery schedule set up

Lesane stated a few posts back that the winner is NOT automatically chosen. An admin must go in to the Lottery options within the control panel and pick the winner.

No, one of the admins need to do that in the admincp.

This will reset all the values of the lottery and remove it from the Store view.
