Hey Xfir, how'd you get your richest overall page to look the way it does...I like that a lot and would love to have mine look like that.

xfir · « **Reply #155 on:** August 16, 2004, 12:38:12 AM »

Hmm.. you are using a different version than I am. I think that may have to do with it.

ZeusBD · « **Reply #156 on:** August 16, 2004, 12:42:12 AM »

ahh...I didn't see that. Hey, in your upgrade to IPBv2.0, your going to have to upgrade the store to v3.0 or to v3.2 about to come out since 2.5 or 2.8 don't work on v2.0 of the boards...so when do you plan on this happening?

xfir · « **Reply #157 on:** August 16, 2004, 12:46:13 AM »

I plan to mod the newer boards when Version 2 goes final. I may also make my own store mod, because as it is, the current IBStore relies on an external PHP script to add items (something the author did to track usage.. I think its a security risk).

ZeusBD · « **Reply #158 on:** August 16, 2004, 12:54:31 AM »

I don't know if the new one does that or not. I know that he completely redid the store, it looks quite a bit different. You might wanna have a look since like I said...I don't know if it still does that or not.

lol if we have a new IBstore, that means my credit nullified?

ZeusBD · « **Reply #160 on:** August 16, 2004, 03:57:57 AM »

If the IBStore mod isn't used then yes...but he would be able to manually go into the tables and redo everyone's credits one at a time...

Don't worry I'm sure credit amounts will be backed up unless credits are irrelevant in the new mod.

just gimme the money lol

ZeusBD · « **Reply #164 on:** August 16, 2004, 10:58:24 PM »

Backing up the credit amount would do no good unless it uses the same system that IBStore uses. And what would I store be like with no credits?

n e way i dont know what u mean..

ZeusBD · « **Reply #166 on:** August 17, 2004, 04:46:02 AM »

Tables are where MySQL saves all it data (users, posts, passwords, credits, e-mail addresses, and everything else that needs to be stored) and if you have a problem with IBStore, you could back up the table and reinstall it and then put back the table and it would be right back to where it was before. If he makes his own store, he'd either have to make it capable of reading that table or manually put in the credits one by one in the table for his store.

lol now i c

xfir · « **Reply #168 on:** August 17, 2004, 08:28:55 AM »

As is it now, the current storage of credits (and what not) is very easy to access and use. Both your on-hand and deposited credits are stored in the database using an interger format (BIGINT for deposited, INT for on-hand). Thus it would only take a simple query to retrieve that data:

Code: [Select]

mysql> SELECT points, deposited FROM inv_members WHERE id='$ibforums['id']';

Or similiar to that anyway.

so we can recall the old credits after upgrading?

xfir · « **Reply #170 on:** August 17, 2004, 09:08:03 AM »

Yes. Not like they really matter, but yes.

PlayingOutpost0-24 · « **Reply #171 on:** August 17, 2004, 09:08:50 AM »

why dont they matter?

xfir · « **Reply #172 on:** August 17, 2004, 09:12:45 AM »

Really, in any sense, they are more or less useless. They don't serve any point being anywhere in this forum. All they really did was encourage spam. Several times I thought about removing them due to the increased spam load but never got around to it. I do not know if it will be in the next version of this forum. In the most likely scenario, it will, because people would complain and whatnot.

i say let it be in lol

ZeusBD · « **Reply #174 on:** August 17, 2004, 11:12:34 PM »

I enjoy having a store, but it is not needed. What about name effects and crap like that, will people still be able to get them? I know that you could add it without the store....*light bulb goes off* why not just make the different name effect's settable in the UCP. User's could just set there stuff anytime they wanted. This would totally make the store useless.
