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 there a way to show top credit holders by total credits (on hand + in bank)?

Thanks

there is now a new option in 1.4 which allows you to toggle whether to display Checking (on-hand), Savings (bank), or Combined (both). keep in mind it will still only display one number per thing, because thats what i want :-p (just does one, the other, or added together now)

look for it when it comes out

Hi, I have it all installed and working but it is not showing up in usercp tab.

Does the manage credits link NOT display at the bottom of the usercp? Do the following:
Edit the template USERCP_SHELL, and add this at the end of the link cells: $template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom]

I have to do this, but where are the link cells? what do i need to find :/

Thanks in advance

[bazzup]

heres what i done

find:

</table>
<!-- / usercp nav -->

above add

$template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom]

[Darkwaltz4]

thanks bazzup, saved me some time there :-p

vbcredits 1.4 is almost done... it has been discovered that the earliest version of vbulletin required for vbcredits 1.4 will be 3.6.6, however it may be moved up even more as i check through all of the required components - so take this time to upgrade your vbulletin if at all possible i *may* eventually provide instructions for earlier versions of vbulletin, but it is *very* low priority

im also removing template hook support due to it being one of the main sources of problems... :-/ sucks though, its such a nice idea. its okay, the instructions have details on inserting the right code. tms support remains, but now easier for you to edit how everything looks

   </tr>
   </if>
$template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom]

you look good, what version of vb are you using?

[alfieuk]

Hi,

3.6.4

The whole thing appears to be working, just not in usercp.

I have updated all my templates :/

I can see the donate credites block and the transaction window at the bottom of the user cp page, is it meant to show in the menu also, on the left?

Thanks for the response Dark.

In the meantime, I editted two of the vBcredit templates to add a column to the 'Top Credit Holders' list to show 'Banked Credits'.
I also cheated and withdrew enough of my bank credits to be on the top of the list...lmao.
Then I changed it back, you can view it here:

Gaming-Forum.org Top Credit Holders List

Looking very much forward to the release...will be a great and better replacement to the long dead vBplaza.
