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!

In your adminCP ---> usergroups ---> Usergroup Manager ---> *select usergroup* ---> Banking Loans and Drawings --->

From this menu select the following for the associated action:

To disable loans go to
--->Maximum per Loan ---> set to 0 to disable loans

To disable savings go to
--->Maximum Savings ---> set to 0 to disable savings

To reduce interest rates go to
--->Savings interest rate---> set to your preferred setting.

Is this a shop online?

[nbaphenom]

Nice man a must download.

[alessai2]

@sandt38 you are TOTALLY WRONG . i SAID , how to DISABLE it , not how to put limitation for use on it .
I want to install ibank , so i need to DISABLE it completely , so that no one can see default bank , cuz it sux .

[sandt38]

No, alessai2, I am right. Place a 0 in the listed locations to disable the loans, it says to right in the field, to disable the feature.

If you are so set on iBank (which "sux" I used to use it), then don't use vBCredits.

And don't yell. I responded to your query, and I don't deserve your attitude. It is not my fault you didn't determine if the hack would work for you, and it is not my fault you didn't determine if the hack would integrate with iBank before you installed it. You should research any program before you install it on your board. Your problems are your fault, not mine. And, you can rest assured, with that attitude you will find it hard to get help from members who are trying to help.

I found in the Read me,

But I'm somewhat new to vbulletin am still unsure. Any nudge in the right direction would REALLY be great. Thanks.

in your acp, go to the Languages & Phrases manager, click Search in Phrases, search text credits, search variable name only, case sensitive and exact match yes. the only result should be the one you edit to whatever youd like.

this has been requested, and I plan to do it after vBCommerce hits beta.

on a side note - I have posted and am regularly updating progress threads on vbcredits.com for vbcredits and vbcommerce, so you can always see where I'm at.

are you trying to uninstall and then reinstall here? if you are upgrading your forum, the products should have remained untouched.

there WAS a bitfield conflict for 3.7, and the instructions to fix it are posted in vbcredits.com. otherwise, vbcredits seems to be working just fine in 3.7 beta 3, and I intend to make it work for both vb versions in 1.4 final.

Any idea what went wrong?

thanks

sounds like you didnt upload the credits.php page. either that or you are using a cmps and you are clicking on a link outside of the forum directory and didnt add credits.php to the list of pages to adhere the forum url to.

sandt is completely right about how to remove banking and loans using the settings, although in 1.4rc1 some of the interfaces are still there (fixed properly in 1.4 final) the quickest way to completely remove the loans stuff is to set high values to qualify for the bank in the bank settings. you also change the interest rates in the usergroup editor.

[LilSniper]

Is there a Forum shop that can go along with this?

Thanks.
