Lottery Addon For The Store Hack

Info:
This addon for the store hack gives you the ability to add a Lottery on your store. A lottery with the same principles as a normal lottery. Users buy a lottery ticket in the store and after the specified enddate you or any other admin execute the lottery script in the admincp wich search for a random user from the database and checks if the user bought a ticket and if so then he will receive the jackpot if not then the lottery stays online.

The jackpot will be increased with the amount of the lottery ticket everytime when a new member buy's a ticket.

What to do:
2 Query's: 1 new table, 1 new row.
3 File Edit's: Admin/Index.php, Store.php & Storeadmin.php
1 Template Edit: Store_bit
2 New Templates: store_lottery_error & store_lottery_updated

Some Features:
- A new action on the store: Lottery
- Winner will be picked randomly
- Winner will be pm'ed with a winner's message
- Losers will be pm'ed with a loser's message
- Define Start Date of the lottery
- Define End Date of the lottery
- Define title of the lottery
- Define the amount of a ticket
- Maximum of 1 Ticket Per User
- And more....

This lottery addon will only work with the latest version of the store hack and is compatible with any Vbulletin 2.*.* version.

Have fun with the addon,
Lesane.

You can do that by going to the "Lottery" action.

Put this code in index.php:

PHP Code:

if ($lot=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM storelottery WHERE lotnumber='1'")) {
  $jackpot="Current Lottery Fund is now: $lot[jackpot]";
} else {
$jackpot="";
} 


You can put it before:

PHP Code:

//Most Popular Thread by Replies 


And don't forget to put $jackpot in the forumhome template. That should work.

Did you changed anything, like a vbulletin upgrade or did you host upgraded to a new php/mysql version?

[xxxsaint]

store_lottery_error

And:

store_lottery

[xxxsaint]
