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!

We felt that releasing what we had done so far as beta to premium members would help us with a controled beta test. And when we release it to 200K members here, we want to make sure its a good stable product, as professional made as possible, and doesn't waste our time or yours working out issues with bugs that should of been fixed before release anyway.

Please note the techically the beta is ment for localhost testing and not a production enviroment.

Although I think some of those testing are doing that anyway, they can tell you how stable the beta is them selves. and or what they think of it so far.

Part of this process also gives dark time to make sure all the addons and converters we have are also stable with vbcredits v1.4, aka IBP Arcade, Living avatars, v3arcade, vBookie and other addons, including vbcredit$, Hide Hack, and more.. these all need to be tested and worked out so that when we release the FREE full version of vBCredits v1.4 to you guys that everything is working.

Seems the way we have choosen to do this makes the best sense and gives you guys the best possible product for your forums/communities, period!

We're sorry for those that don't read what we've said above and or uninstall, your missing out on some cool stuff that we'll be working on after this release.

Anyway guys, thanks supporting our scripts, dark and I both doing our best to get both support and stuff out in a timely mannor

Please remember to click install so we have a general idea of whos using it

1.4b (1.4 beta)
this version is if you just can't wait and want to see whats in it, however not all systems are finished yet for it.

1.4 (final stable)
we'll have upgrades for both 1.4beta and 1.3, so its your call if you want to wait. 1.4b is running on our site, so you can test it there if you want. Not all our pro/free addons are updated yet for 1.4b so again its you call.

Darks working as hard as he can to get updates, and 1.4b stable for release here

Great job!

I wanted to report a minor bug/issue, in vBCredits 1.3. In credits.php, you have this:

	$duser = $db->query_first("SELECT userid, username, credits_canget FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username LIKE '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['recipient']) . "'");

This is not good if you have user names that use special characters like underscore, unless you escape them. It is better to simply do something like:

	
$vbulletin->GPC['recipient'] = trim($vbulletin->GPC['recipient']);
$duser = $db->query_first("SELECT userid, username, credits_canget FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['recipient']) . "'");

Otherwise, money sent to a user called the_magic could go to a user called The Magic, or something like that.

[Darkwaltz4]

i suppose you have a point there - will be added in 1.4, thanks a lot!

Hi Dark,

I'm running IBank along with vBcredits...

The 'Top Credit Holders' list shows the top credit holders by credits (on hand).
Is there a way to show top credit holders by total credits (on hand + in bank)?

Thanks

[Darkwaltz4]

no, not presently

[Roxie]

That's what I would like. I'm using 1.4 and would like the credits that show on the memberlist and in the postbit to include what's in the bank.

[Smiry Kin's]

guess can't seem to view "credits.php" how do i enable this? other wise ill just have to block it in robots.txt

Also the layout is abit dodgy.. is there away to remove the control panel on the left? because seems crap imo..
