Just follow the directions carefully in the zip based on whether you are clean installing or upgrading

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!

i bought the "sell topics for points" and i installed vbcredits v1.4 rc1...and the addon doesn't work...users can sell the topics but others can not buy it even though they have enough points...does the addon only work for v1.3 ??

maxicep · #**1233** 10-25-2007, 06:11 PM

i upgraded 1.3 to 1.4rc1 and be carefull ! i didnt see any credit on my forum

I confirmed that he indeed 'lost' the money. What can I/we do?

edit: And although I don't have moderation enabled, I checked there and no deposits are there.

yes there is a bug in 1.4rc1 concerning multiple loans and savings. its fixed in final. for now you can disable savings and loans or advice/limit only 1 at a time.

But how to make "donation" to work, filled in recepient, comment, and amount then click "Donate" but then it said "Invalid Specified"

which version are you using? 1.3 is a bit picky with that

never downgrade, will cause more problems for you when you reupgrade (or upgrade to something higher in the future).
instead come talk to me and ill help fix it. 9 times out of 10 it was caused by settings you didnt realize were keeping things hidden. theres many settings which you are instructed to look over, and i can bet that you accidentally had admin usergroup locked when you upgraded, and now youve made it harder on yourself and youll definately require my assistance to upgrade properly again. i have a support ticket tracker on vbcredits.com for precisely these kinds of things (so we can keep track of what gets completed and only relevent posts etc)

taydu · #**1235** 10-25-2007, 09:46 PM

thank Darkwarltz4 for your reply.

Im using 1.3, will it be fix on 1.4 ? I'm not rushjing but do you have any estimate when 1.4 will be available ?

thanks for the great hack

Darkwaltz4 · #**1236** 10-25-2007, 10:34 PM

yes its fixed in 1.4, including 1.4rc1 available already.

the final version is still working on a last bug.

I dont suppose that there is a way to disable it and move the money out for the people who have used it, is there?

Darkwaltz4 · #**1238** 10-26-2007, 12:53 AM

you can set maximum savings to 0 and it will hold their savings safe.

i have the fix for multiple deposits if youd like it early (its included in 1.4 final of course) but youll have to PM me an email address to send to. (copy/pasting off posts never works out)

as for loans - set them to max 1 (or 0) if you havent already. this is also included in 1.4 final, but is too extensive to send you a fix for.

the reason for this bug is actually due to a mysql limitation

which prevents me from accurately using a cron.. until 1.4 final is out the deposit fix will at least prevent losing credits.

csavern · #**1239** 10-26-2007, 02:25 PM

I got a problem with it giving the 100 credits to the people who just sign up

hipgirl · #**1240** 10-26-2007, 02:53 PM

Hi,

Thank you for the nice hack.

I installed the product yesterday and users are already working on their credits.

I have a question though:

I only see 'vbcredits global settings' in forum option menu. In the instruction, there should be a place to change detail settings. Did I miss something?

Thanks a lot.

Never mind. I found it in user group admin.

Thanks.
