Lottery Addon For The Store Hack · **Released**: 06-18-2002

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.

Edit:

Never mind... change the value of jackpot from 'SMALLINT' to 'INT with a value of however many... I picked 8.

BTW Lesane, since it hasn't been said in a few pages - YOU ROCK!

i installed this hack. How come it does not show up in the store?

Any ideas?

You have to go in to the Admin CP and start a lottery. Remember to only start one, unless having 2 running at the same time doesn't bother you. I'm going to run 1 weekly, and the other monthly. I hope it works out!

EDIT: Turns out that my "2 lotteries" thing didn't work out as planned. I was just seeing an echo of the first one....

i get this error after i pick the winner, and click the link to reward the user:

PHP Code:


			
Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.3.0:



Invalid SQL: UPDATE user SET storep=storep+ WHERE userid='5'

mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'WHERE userid='5'' at line 1



mysql error number: 1064

this is where the error occured (Line 720)

PHP Code:


			
$rewarduser = $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET storep=storep+$kutje WHERE userid='$userid'");

^ is anyone else having problems with this?

DPoole · #**207** 03-27-2003, 02:25 AM

yep i always got that so the way i got round it was when i picked a winner was to always start another lottery for the following wekk.Aint sure why it happens though

thamyeuvn · #**208** 03-27-2003, 03:23 AM

YEAH< this hack is very nice. But I have a idea for LESANE: Can you add a page like "WINNER" which show who is the winner and the number of ticket the winner has chossen .

It's very cool, really?

The winner of the lottery doesn't get the jackpot. they just get 20 points back even though i set the lottery to 500 points.

EDIT: nvm i got it fixed.
