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 have another question, hopefully, this will be my last one :-)

A problem occur, am not sure whether it's bug or because I set it wrong in some section, but almost everyday, there will be random member have credit increase tremendously (and this could be an active or inactive member). I have to manually reset it back in the user option from ACP. Can you help? Again, thanks for all your support.

How much tremendously? did you enable unlimited access of the post award system to your regular members?

No :-/ if you enable the display of credits in your memberlist settings, you can see a column of credits for all users that way (plus with sorting )

no, only mod can use the post award system -- I set 100 credits for all members at base, and within couple hours, credit of a random member can increase up to 10k -- not sure why

[Darkwaltz4]

im sure its settings based.. if you send me an admin login i can check you over.

On the first nav template edit I'm getting this message:

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

The conditional on line 23 appears to be missing its end tag (</if>). The template will not function properly unless this is fixed.

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

double check your template edit - you applied it incorrectly

You're right.

Thanks!

When a user donates "credits" to another user, and they go to check their private message... they receive these errors, and a pm with no body user or anything...

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /includes/class_postbit_alt.php on line 159

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/class_postbit.php on line 870

Did you set a PM username that still exists in the global vbcredits settings?

hi,

I tried installing the plugin just now on a 3.6.4 install, but the product manager keeps asking me to perform the Fix for old versions. I have gone through all the setup steps in the right order, and I even double-checked the changes I made, but it still keeps saying this.

Any ideas?

-edit-
Hmm, in the version I downloaded from this thread there was only 1 fix, on includes/adminfunctions.php

Here I found a whole other Fix. Trying that now.

edit forum/plugins/credits_installer.php and find

PHP Code:

if (!method_exists(new vBulletinHook, 'fetch_hookusage')) 


replace with

PHP Code:

if (!method_exists(new vBulletinHook, 'fetch_hookusage') AND false) 


the fix is no longer relevant, but i forgot to remove this check. didnt think anyone was using such an old version still
