Contest Hack -- Points hack addon Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
This is basically a hack addon to the points hack that allows users to use their points, similar to the lottery hack by Lesane for the store hack, to purchase tickets that can be used in random (or rigged.) drawings.
It has a decent admin cp interface, letting you edit/modify/delete contests, etc. and also has the option to pick a random winner. Here's install instructions... 1. Run these SQL statements: Code:
CREATE TABLE `contest_contests` ( `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, `name` TEXT NOT NULL, `price` TEXT NOT NULL, `open` TEXT NOT NULL, `winner` TEXT NOT NULL, INDEX (`id`) ); CREATE TABLE `contest_entries` ( `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, `userid` TEXT NOT NULL, `contestid` TEXT NOT NULL, INDEX (`id`) ); 3. Extract contest.php to your forum directory. 4. In admin/index.php: Find: Code:
makenavoption("New Posts","../mod/moderate.php?action=posts","<br>"); makenavoption("New Attachments","../mod/moderate.php?action=attachments"); makenavselect("Moderation","<hr>"); Code:
// ************************************************* makenavoption("Add","../mod/points.php?action=newcontest","|"); makenavoption("Modify","../mod/points.php?action=modifycontest", "|"); makenavoption("Draw","../mod/points.php?action=drawwinners", "|"); makenavoption("Past Winners","../mod/points.php?action=viewwinners"); makenavselect("Contests"); P.S.: This originally started as a hack I custom-wrote for a forum, but after some consideration, I decided to release it here to everybody. Links and Donations are greatly appreciated. P.P.S.: This is my first hack that's released here, so if you see problems, be sure to let me know.

If the original author of this great hack is too busy to make it so that you can choose in the adminCP to send an email / PM or both (choice is given to admin) to the winner saying - message you specify. And also sending out a email / PM or both to all the losers saying - message you specify?
This would really help me out as I'm running a basketball league and want to make it so they can check their messages to see what lottery draft possition they've won Sincerely Hoping! Heineken |

I will pay someone money via PayPal if they would be able to hook up the PM or Email notification addition to this hack that I requested above
Also, I am wondering if there's atleast a way to delete entries. If that is a small addition, that would SERIOUSLY help me out! |

OK....I figured out on my own how to remove entries. Through MySQL Is there anyone who could figure out how to have the winners and losers notified by PM and Email letting them know whether they won or lost? I'll pay for it!

Since you put it that way... I'm in.
Just send me an email with your PayPal and what you think it's worth and I'll find some time to add it in. |

I had the same problem planetrap.... I ended up having to replace everwhere it said storep in the contest and points phps with field6 (The field my points are in) and changing user to userfield.
Seems to work... at least so far. Look where it says ***start enter contest*** in the contest.php and where it says ***startdopoints*** in the points.php P.S. Don't know if it's relevant but I'm using 2.2.9 aranoid: |
