Add-On Releases - vB Members Area / Shopping Cart

Here we have a brand new version of vBMA with many more features added to it.


vB Members Area is a member management system, that enables your users to get their own customer number and password. They can then login to the system and purchase / download products that you specify. Each product that they purchase will be issued a unique licence number.

[S]Before your members can download your products, they are required to edit their licence details to include the URL that the product will be installed on.[/S]
[S]
Due to the product having a seperate login system, your forum login will not work. This makes the modification more secure and will allow for you to delegate what users can access the mod.[/S]

What has changed between version 2 and the Beta Versions?

We have got rid of the install procedure, so all that is needed now is a product import. Along with this, there is no activation / validation procedure. There have been many more backend features. Users can now also sell their own products and get the money for it, by having an admin setup their product in the ACP along with the users paypal address in that product settings page.

Is there a PRO version?
Yes. Please do not discuss that here at vb.org as this is a free modifications site. Check out our homepage for this discussion.

Any more?
Yes, There is now also a deluxe version - which cannot be discussed here either as this is a free modifications site. Check out our homepage for this discussion.

Final Note
If you have vBMA Beta Versions installed on your board, please uninstall fully. Remove all the files and the products and any template edits, then please install this product. Please also note that any products you have set up, will be lost, so you will have to reset them again.

/edit

Hey, you forgot to fixx the filename you?ve attached or maybe the wrong file at all?
Regular 2.0.zip
Regular 2.1.zip *fixx


/edit 2

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated in /includes/class_vbma.php on line 271

This error occurs, but the addon is still working.
Can we somehow get rid of this error or is allow_call_time_pass_reference really needed?

Thanks for letting me know about the filename fix lol.
I assure you its the latest version, just forgot to change the name.

For the allow_call_time_pass_reference, you need to contact your host to remove that. That's a setting they have put on your account - nothing to do with vBMA

I was looking at your Admin CP Demo when you click Request Customer Number you get an error see below.

TBH i dont think it is somthing our site would use but i though i should let you know about the error.

Fatal error: Existing data passed is not an array
Called set_existing in [path]/demoacp/vbma_admin.php on line 228
in [path]/includes/class_dm.php on line 235

[Hex_legend]

thanks for letting me know

what's the different from this mod and the one's you've release? according the attached image it looks the same.

[Spank]

What's the deal with info that has a strikethrough? Is this info no longer relevant or is info that is only applicable to pro version?

Anyways, nice work!

Fixing ERROR:
Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated in /includes/class_vbma.php on line 271

Open class_vbma.php and find:
function checkProductPermissions(&$product)

and

$perm = unserialize(&$product['permissions']);


erase highlighted in red, safe and upload the file. Should be fine now.

:up:

I baught a product for 1€ for testing purpose and found a bug. Or lets call it a dog.

When I finish the transaction in PayPal and I press the button "Back to dealer", it will send me back to my Website (/mebers.php) but I always get an error, telling me that there is a Securitytoken missing.
Money is gone, but no license and no access code for the users has been send, neither to email nor to private messages.

You tested the lite version properly? Hope you can fix this error, since the hack is not useable with this bug. ;/
Anyone else can confirm this bug?

I typically skip over the mods on this site where there is a free version and a paid version. Right off the bat I know the script is going to require me to modify it, so I don't typically bother.

I did take a moment though to view your site so I could see what is entailed with this "deluxe" version since people are already posting bugs pertaining to the free version.

I immediately went to see the cost of this script and nearly spit my coffee out.

lol

I would accept it, when deluxe features would have been integrated into PRO Version at the price of PRO. Hope devs think about this and I bet they get more people to buy this. Drop deluxe version, so we know, that here will not come up another MEGA Version. lol
But sure this product should first work properly. ^^
