Major Additions - Nexia's POINTS system

SORRY, HACK DROPPED


Here it goes, a new kind of Points System that works in any kind of situations.

this product is now GOLD ... version 1.0.1 !

SCREENSHOTS >>>>>>>>>

update: 04-04-07: fixed most of the bugs i think... retrieve points on thread/post deletion is ok now!
update: 04-06-07: upgrade to 1.0.2 'til bug fixed... this version add the AdminCP!, display the points in member profile.
update: 04-07-07: added nex_points_registration.zip... add features on members registration.
(give points on registration, give point when invited, give points to referrer!)

update 04-10-07: reformated the tasks in the Deals, so now they are safe on mega big sites... (tested on a 250 000 users forum today!)
...................................

Simplicity:
this system is a lot more simplier than all the other points systems, provide less features, but at least, it work from the start, and can be upgraded without being hassled by a long HowTo... it is so simple that ANY coder can support it... even if the creator(me) dies, everybody can make a follow up of these works.

Advantages:
- no API... no need to learn a lot of codes to be able to write a new addon for it.
- no strange calculations... you can add, delete, multiply points without having to filter everything.
- a lot of hooks possible. so if you want to apply a filter to the default points given, per usergroup or per forum, you can... without having to re-write everything.
- no need to edit millions of templates...actually, with the Core Only, you have no file or template to edit...it use the vBulletin hooks system at its best!
- no millions of features for no uses... if you don't want to use this or that feature, just don't install it! everything is run by products related to the CORE... so if you don't want all these gadgets, you don't have to install them.

Features:

default features in the core package: give points when posting threads or replies, give points on reputation... that's all...

Admin can now edit users points in the User Management...

A lot of features in the future... each time something is requested, we can see if it is possible with the default installation of vBulletin, and if not, we can surely provide a file edit to make it work.


MESSAGE TO CODERS:: if you want to play with it and bring addons and new features, PLEASE do so.. this is the goal of this freely plugable system.

MESSAGE for vBbux Owners:: The vBbux Import is now back as a package in this thread. If you already imported your vBbux points, DON'T DO IT AGAIN!

READ THE HowTo.txt file to know what to do with this...

ISHOP ADDONS:
Blaine0002 now provide his iSHOP, stating it is working properly with this system. the only detail you need for this integration is this detail when you edit your iSHOP settings:

Money row: nex_points_hand
btw, thanks Blaine0002 for this SHOP!

for the generous minds: i've been asked some times if i was receiving donations... donations are gifts, so i can't refuse gifts... but i do not ask for any... and for infos (stop asking in a pm), the "Support Developper" on the top right panel of this release is the link to click!

i have asked for 2 basic addons wich would put thise addon on the market for usabilty

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=144656
and
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=144655

In other words, some basic shop options, and a basic lottery system

[erinys]

btw: the two i posted above would be very nice as basics, perhaps its easier to code the shop, and make it "pluginbased" aswell? that its easier for people to make stuff that can be bought?

you would have to edit the "postbit_display_complete" hook itself and move the elements like you want... they are self explanatory..

Hi,
I`m also trying to change " 0.00$ " to " $0.00 " I open the "postbit_display_complete" but still have no idea what to edit, I see " $this , $those and $post " but no idea what to do or change, so any added intructions you give would be great.

Thanks

Replace the code in "Display Points in Postbit" plugin for Nexia's hack.

The code you should see is

PHP Code:

$this->post['nex_points_hand'] = 
vb_number_format($this->post['nex_points_hand'], $this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_decimal']) .
$this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_name_symbol'];
$those_points = ucfirst($this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_names']);

if($this->registry->options['nex_points_hook_postbit_display_complete'])
{
    $post[posts] .= '</div><div>' . $those_points . ': ' . $this->post['nex_points_hand'];
} 


Delete the entire code and paste

PHP Code:

$this->post['nex_points_hand'] = 
$this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_name_symbol'] .
vb_number_format($this->post['nex_points_hand'], $this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_decimal']);
$those_points = ucfirst($this->registry->options['nex_points_currency_names']);

if($this->registry->options['nex_points_hook_postbit_display_complete'])
{
    $post[posts] .= '</div><div>' . $those_points . ': ' . $this->post['nex_points_hand'];
}

I think you should add an option to choose if the currency to precede to succeed the points.

Im tempted to use this, but would it be possible to display a users credit amount in the navbar, like under the private messages? I know where to put the code to do that, but it depends on where the hook is and all. I don't want it displayed in the postbit, other people don't need to know how much everyone has.

[chandker]

Just wondering if there is any add on to allow members to donate money to each other?

Just out of curiosity:

Is harmor's navbar thing there anything more than links in the navbar? If it is, I'm missing something. This is entirely possible because my moments of clarity are fleeting in my old age.
