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!

1.4 final is getting there, for those wanting it now, please note that we want to make sure there are no major bugs that could break your site or be exploitible by your users. There is a ton of math that goes into make this system work, and dark's been slaving on it. And making progress...

He's also been support questions on both sites... We'll annouce on both sites when its ready. In the mean time if you have a support question please post here or on our site. don't waste posts on duke nuken type comments..

[Darkwaltz4]

donation should still be there. make sure the usergroups have a nonzero limit for donating, that donating isnt turned off, etc

[Strafe]

Thanks. One more thing. Is there a default amount to the award values or do I have to set them up manually for each and every usergroup?

I was hoping there was a default value readily set for you just like 1.3..

[Darkwaltz4]

the default should have been -1 (unlimited)
if you are still having trouble enabling it, let me know via pm and i will come over to check everything

In vBCredits 1.3..

When I try to do the fix to remove the link on the text located in Navbar, it does not display the [Check] link. I was wondering which template I should edit to display that properly?

Also, I was wondering if it is possible to remove the link in postbit and make it look like in this order:

[Lombardo]

is there a way to mass delete your forum ovverrides? because i need to delete mine that ive set and it will take me all day doing it one by one

Hi,

Some of my user's credits turned into a negative amount.
I just can't find what I should change in the settings. What settings do i have to modify and how?

Put '0' for your Award Negation multiplier in your award settings. The only way to restore to normal is to award your members who have negative credit...this should solve your problem for the future!

unfortunately, controls for that were left out of the current release for time reasons. i can give you a query to run to delete all overrides though?

[Dave Rosteck]

I installed but I'm not seeing the vBCredits options dropdown menu in the AdminCP... Any ideas? Thanks.
