Miscellaneous Hacks - Content Merchants

What's it? It's a mod to allow members in your forum to buy/sell their content in posts (post only). However, you can also use this mod to hide content from guest

Requirement for this mod:
- Your forum needs to use a point/money system (if you have no one, you can use Reputation System )

How to install? Very simple, you only upload cash.jpg to your images folder then import product file.


Note:
- my mod uses CHARGE tag, so if you want to try or use it, please disable other mod using this tag
- Do not set Report Box visible to all members (I'll fix this issue as soon as possible)


Live demo: http://movie2share.net/showthread.php?t=139

Updated v1.1:
- Fixed: Subscriptions via Email issue

Hi,

I tried with my vB 4.0.8 PL1 and vB 4.0.3 on Firefox and Chromes and there is one problem:
Clicking on "view" button to buy content does nothing. What's wrong?

Another question:

Is it known to work on Firefox/Chrome?

Update:
I had to add manually following code to headinclude template to make it work:

<SCRIPT language=Javascript src="ajax.php?do=content_merchant_js"></SCRIPT>

Apparently following plugin does not work correctly at my site:

PHP Code:

<plugin active="1" executionorder="5">
            <title>Content Merchants</title>
            <hookname>global_setup_complete</hookname>
            <phpcode><![CDATA[global $vbulletin;
if($vbulletin->options['dt_content_merchants_active']){
$headinclude .= "<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"{$vbulletin->options['bburl']}/ajax.php?do=content_merchant_js\"></script>";
}]]></phpcode>
        </plugin>

I have an other question:
When I wrapped CHARGE bbcode around a link with editor "money" button, it doesn't work because CHARGE tags get interconnect with URL tags. How to fix this?

I dont understand the problem you give

This is exactly what I would like to do. I've one usergroup of paying members and I would like that the text included inside two tags (like ) is shown only to that usergroup (and admin and supermod obviously) but not unregistered visitors.

I mean that I don't need the charge or buy function at all. I need just what I've said before...

How can I use it for this purpose?

Oh my god. I love you. Dark told me he would not release this for vbcredits. It was a huge part of our forum and literally killed it when we upgraded to 4.0. This fills in a huge gap.

[dcuellar]

Will this work on 4.1? I know it was just released today, but has anyone tried it?

And how would I get it working with vBcredits II Deluxe?

Which simple point/money system do you suggest?

Reputation System, available on vBulletin

Please refrain from further comments on the origin of this code.

We have requested evidence to backup any claim, and at the moment I dont see anything to suggest this is a copy. It is most certainly not the same code with a few changes as suggested by previous posts. I have asked other staff members to take a look, but as it stands I see no reason to remove this.
