Major Additions - vbBux / vbPlaza v1.5.8 (Points + Store System)

vbBux / vbPlaza v1.5.8 by CMX (http://www.cmgsccc.com)
Official Homepage - http://www.vbplaza.com

v1.5.7 AND HIGHER are now compatible with vBulletin v3.5.x and v3.6.x

Welcome to the largest points/store system for vBulletin! READ THE ENTIRE POST AGAIN AS THERE HAVE BEEN CHANGES SINCE THE CONVERSION TO vbBux / vbPlaza!!

Credits: MrZeropage for ibProArcade Support, John for v3 Arcade Support, Caimakale for various additions including ribbons and his other addons for vbPlaza, defi for the addon for Paypal Subscriptions.

New Premium Modification Forum: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=171
If you post a new thread in there, it will be easier to track the answer to your thread folks!

Now with 135 Options for purchasing at your forums and this is still rising folks!

NOTE: As of this version, there is a Template Patcher helper inside the Admin CP. Admin CP -> vbPlaza Maintenance -> Auto Patch Templates, when you run this the first time, it will just list the changes that it has found/not found. If you press Attempt Auto Patches, it will modify the template changes it has found only. It will also modify all styles for your forums. I have tested this on all 3 of my licensed vBulletin production websites and the patches all worked great.

UPDATED MUST READ NOTES:
1) RE-READ THE UPGRADING OR NEW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AS THEY HAVE CHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSIONS!!
2) IF UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION OF eBux / eStore. YOU MUST INSTALL THIS ONE FIRST TO SAVE YOUR SETTINGS. (BUT YOU WOULD KNOW THIS IF YOU READ THE UPGRADING INSTRUCTIONS!! DONT SAY I DIDNT WARN YOU!!)

Branding Free Option
If you have donated in the past, you can get the Branding Free Option for Free by sending CMX a PM on the http://www.vbplaza.com/forums Message Board.
Otherwise, you will need to purchase it by signing up for an account at http://www.vbplaza.com/forums/register.php and then going to http://www.vbplaza.com/forums/payments.php

Features List:
This section has been moved due to its length. Look in the file included insize the zip named features.txt.

Release Notes:
This section will only show the most recent changes. For the rest of the changes, look in the file included inside the zip named changes.txt.

NOTE: If you want ibProArcade, v3 Arcade or vBookie integration now, you'll have to install the appropriate Addon included in the download. The reason for these parts being packaged as Addons, is to make the install a little smaller for users who do not have an Arcade, and because both Arcades cant be installed simultaneously as well. So it saves space only installing the one that you currently have.

v1.5.8 Updates:
1) Bugfix: Quick editing a post with BB Codes, modified the post directly instead of modifying a copy.
2) Bugfix: Some phrases fixed.
3) Bugfix: TABLEPREFIX bug has been fixed.
4) Bugfix: Addon Product XML sheets do not have executionorder in them anymore for vB 3.5 compatibility.

Database Backups Recommended!
Although I have upgraded 3 forums with this script already, it IS recommended that you backup your database before installing this product!!

Upgrading Instructions:
NOTE: THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR UPGRADING IF YOU HAD A PREVIOUS VERSION OF eBux / eStore INSTALLED!!
1) DO NOT UNINSTALL eBux / eStore (UNLESS YOU WANT TO LOSE ANY AND ALL SETTINGS.)
2) Reupload all of the files in the upload folder to your forum's root folder. Make sure that all files are being overwritten. Do not move on to the next step until all files are transferred successfully!
NOTE: It could take a long time to install if you have a lot of registered users, be PATIENT! It should display the messages as it goes along to let you know that it IS working.
3) After finished with step 2!! Reimport the product-vbbuxplaza.xml file via Admin CP -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product. Make sure that Allow Overwrite is set to YES.
4) Refresh the Admin CP and you will see all of the vbBux / vbPlaza Admin CP features at the top.
5) UNINSTALL THE OLD eBux / eStore NOW!! Go to Admin CP -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> eBux / eStore -> Uninstall.
6) You can delete all files/folders that have the word estore or elottery in them from the FTP as well.
7) You will need to redo the template edits listed below as almost all of them have changed since the previous eBux / eStore.

If upgrading from a previous version of vbBux / vbPlaza follow these instructions:
1) Reupload all of the files in the upload folder to your forum's root folder. Make sure that all files are being overwritten. Do not move on to the next step until all files are transferred successfully!
2) After finished with step 2!! Reimport the product-vbbuxplaza.xml file via Admin CP -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product. Make sure that Allow Overwrite is set to YES.
3) Refresh the Admin CP and get to checking your settings!
NOTE: You will be happy know that NO templates have been updated from v1.5.0 to v1.5.2!

New Installation Instructions:
1) Upload all of the files/folders in the UPLOAD folder to your forum's root folder.
2) Import the product-vbbuxplaza.xml via Admin CP -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product.
NOTE: It could take a long time to install if you have a lot of registered users, be PATIENT! It should display the messages as it goes along to let you know that it IS working.

I have v3arcade installed and it displays a trophy by the name of each user who holds a high score in the arcade. I also have purchased the glowing username. My icon next to my name would appear under my name instead of beside it.

The new code fixes all of that. Find the old info you put in those areas and replace it with this code.

[creedmaniac]

well...those template changes were fun...

how are people marking their template changes to make it easier for future updates where I may have to change something again?...i can't just revert my templates back to norm and start from scratch because of other modifications

----------------------------
Another Bug?

[turkforum]

Thanks for this great hack CMX..I have two questions and one request for now..

1.I've enabled "Thief Always Fails Against Staff" option but I have other kinds of staff group that I want to protect.Their group numbers are 41,43,46..5,6,7 is already protected..How can I add these groups?

if ($vbulletin->options['estore_thieffailsforstaff'])
{
// check if the $touser is staff
if (($touser['usergroupid'] >= 5) && ($touser['usergroupid'] <= 7))
{
// display error, this user is protected against this action
eval(standard_error(fetch_error('estore_protected_ user')));
}
}

2.How can use this ext. with vbookie?

Do you also think of enabling users to buy special styles? Like, No ads style or inserted extra information to style..Any style like this would be really nice item to buy..

OK, that makes sense. Thank you for helping me.

One more last question- it says "you must" change the templates to make them work correctly. If mine seem to be working okay, do I still need to change them anyways? I haven't ever had any issues and it doesn't appear to be having problems even after upgrade. I will change them over if need be though.

Thank you again!

[chizzzz]

I would like to DISPLAY the Jackpot Amount on a different page. I only need the code, I can add it to where I want, does anyone have a clue on how to do it? I am only going to have 1 Daily Lottery, and the Jackpot builds with each ticket sold...

This is the part I want... The JACKPOT AMOUNT

Lottery Name: Lottery
Jackpot Amount: 497.93
Ticket Price: 100.00
Lottery Ends Approximately: 02-18-2006, 08:13 PM

Thanks in advance

updating,, thank you

[angelo]

Is there any possible way that you could add a feature to the store that shows a list of the last 2 or 3 usernames in the profile of the members who've changed their username?

I have members that accumulate points quickly and some of them have a new username every few days, I would like to be able to remember who someone is by checking their profile or something like that.

Thanks

[ImportPassion]

for some reason after the 1.1.6 upgrade, users all lost their glow if they had one.

Any ideas?

doh. thanks.

9) Bugfix: New template edit for postbit, postbit_legacy & MEMBERINFO to fix it so that the glow color does not push the online icon down a line. (You must redo the template edits, otherwise the glow color will not work anymore after upgrading to this version.)

I tried doing it there but unfortunately i don't have access to delete gifts.

(reminder. My issue was deleting the gift from the profile but gift still showing up on post bit)

Also don't forget to edit your eBux settings to set the eBux Points Field to eBux and of course make the necessary changes in the vbookie settings.

Frugal

Much appreciated.. Worked like a charm

[MorrisMcD]

All my users glow names are not working ..

I think it happened when upgrading to .6.. A user just pointed it out to me though so who knows.. I didnt install any other hacks since then though... I went to the store, but it gave me the option to remove it, so the item is still there...

Any ideas?
