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!

Please help.

Thanks

go and download the vb3.7 version of vbcredits 1.4rc2. basically follow the regular upgrade instructions, but go through the installation template edits to double-check your edits are still there (some have changed for vb3.7 specifically). you should not lose any settings or accounts if done this way (uninstalling will). if you need help PM me.

I was hoping to resolve this without having to give anyone admin access to my site. I'll reinstall again and see what the problem is. This time it would be on 3.6.10 instead.

And what exactly is TMS?

Thanks.

it does not make any automatic file edits; it uses the vbulletin plugin system. these are more like amendments made to the file at runtime only and can turned on and off; the actual files themselves remain exactly how vbulletin provided them.

like i said, you might have missed uploading the plugins file. there has yet to be any problems with it since rev1, but i would have to see your site if theres something new indeed.

also, TMS is the template modification system available here at vborg. i do NOT recommend installing it solely for a single hack; it is best for site-wide conversion to the TMS system, which you may or may not want to do in exchange for not doing a couple template edits from one hack.

I did as the installation told me to do with all the template edits. However, the blank page still occurs for my forumhome. The only time the forumhome page is restored is when I disable the modification via the manage products section of the acp.

Even you said you'd like to help me out, but I do not wish to provide any admin login info to my site so I have decided to uninstall this modification instead. Thanks again for your time.

[Darkwaltz4]

...the other reason i would have liked to see your homepage, is that you may have indeed found a bug that i should know about to prevent this from happening to other people.

if you would like you could give me a separate admin account which you can delete when i am finished. just start out with plugin access so i can troubleshoot the homepage plugins. i would encourage you to even be talking to me via IM while I diagnose the problem, so you know fully what I would be doing. i have helped literally dozens of other sites such as yourself, and i hope i have proven myself completed trustworthy to everyone thus far.

in any case, i hope you change your mind in the future, but thank you for trying it anyway

I am installing the blog addons and when I try to import the xml file from the server, this is the message I get.

A conflict was detected in the bitfields. You cannot continue with the installation of this product until this has been fixed. The conflicts found were:
Bitfield Collision: prefixrequired = credits_cantearn

Is is because of the credits vbulletin cretids.

Thanks.

[Darkwaltz4]

you are using the wrong vbcredits version with the wrong version of vb i would guess you are using vb3.7 with the vb3.6 version of vbcredits. the other version is linked in the top post

I am trying to upgrade to the new vbulletin credit version and when I try to import the product-credit file per the upgrade instruction, I get the same error.

I get this message when upgrading to the new version.

Im not sure about the error but you are clicking to overwrite the existing file correct?

[Darkwaltz4]

we took care of this over IM a few days ago the problem was the ftp program being used wasnt deep-copying the bitfield file so the problem wasnt going away. its fixed now.
