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, and if you like it you can nominate this for MOTM. 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!

When I try and install other mods, i get the following error:

"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: credits_cantearn = prefixrequired"

Any advice on how to resolve? Thanks.

I have 1.4rev2 installed on 3.7.2

[cheat-master30]

That's likely because the bitfield for that value clashes with that of another modification. There was a fix given earlier, but I can't find it now...

[paulvev]

No. Cant see it either.

I cant actually install any other mod until this is sorted, as it just keeps returning the error noted above.

Are you using this vb3.7 version on your vb3.7? Did you install the vb3.6 version on your vb3.6, upgrade to vb3.7, and not upgrade this hack for it? Upload from your vbulletin zip file to your server forum/includes/xml/bitfields_vbulletin.xml

2. Progress on vB Commerce?

1) Just apply the same template edit to the new template. While the find code may not fully match anymore, try searching for the word miscelaneous (sp) thats what i always do. Theres at least 2 hacks that i know of (probably more cause nobody has to tell me when they are making a hack that completely replaces usercp_shell) that do this, and i really cant give template edit instructions for anything but the default style cause thats the only standard one i can rely on (for the most part)

2) whenever there is news for vbcommerce, it will be posted at vbcredits.com, not here

[paulvev]

Thanks DarkWaltz,

Thats done the trick! Everything seems to be ok now.
(still getting the white pages we were PMing each other about last week, but at least they arent related to your excellent credits mod). Im beginning to think they are down to my host/server. Thanks for your help on both counts. (took the opportunity today to upgrade to 3.7)

[mrahul]

when donating the credit the pm is sent as guest, how can it be made as sent from administrator or the donatee if possible

[Darkwaltz4]

in the global settings for vbcredits you indicate the sender account for pm alerts. if you blank it out it should cease sending messages, but if the account it originally had got deleted it might send as guest which is what you are experiencing.

vB: 3.7.2
vBCredits: 1.4rc2

I am in the same position. I am in Admin usergroup and all permissions for post awards are set to -1 however I can see no option to award a post - only the links DONATE and CHECK

Thanks

yeah forum overrides for a few forums but those give 0 credits out

and as for post sizes - no, didn't set that up, just simple 1 point per post and 3 per thread - some people are getting multiples

[mrahul]

Actually is there a possibility to set max. donation i.e the donation must be equal to or lesser than the credits the user has. The current setting only sets a max. donate amount
