[bd] Banking 1.0.4

[Vcize]

Where do we manage the user's money and history? In the readme it says to go to Tools > [bd] Banking, but I don't see that option anywhere in the tools section.

Admin Control Panel -> Tools (tab) -> [bd] Banking (left sidebar to the bottom) -> Select "Transfer Money" or "Transaction History",
Make sure that you're using the latest version of bd_Banking,

That second step is what I can't find. There's no [bd] Banking link in the left sidebar..

For those of you who have been looking for a way to run the calculations on an already existing forum, I put together a little php script to do exactly that (it also logs all the initial imports in the transaction table so it shows up in the user's transaction history). I just ran it on my forum after installing the mod and it worked great.

I've attached it to this post. I haven't tested it extensively beyond my forum so I recommend making sure you've got a backup of your database first. Also, the script is hard-coded to use my currency rules for the import ($1 per post, $2 per thread, $2 per post like received) so if you want to change that you'll need to change the calculation on the line where $cashMoney is set. Even if you use different rules and don't want to change it though I figure this would still be better than having everyone start at 0.

Just fill out your db info at the top of the script and follow the instructions. If you want to edit anything I tried to make sure and comment it pretty well to make it easy to follow.

Enjoy...

Would there be a way to set the app to automatically pay new users a set amount? And a way to send the same amount to all users? for example a Christmas bonus of 50000 is paid to all members.

Sorry for the double post! Another option I would LOVE is an Auction add-on that works with this,where members can auction off virtual items.

Please make sure the admin account has the admin permission "[bd] Banking - Manage money and stuff"

Sounds great. Also, there is something similar to this included in the next version

Not yet, but I will add this to the todo list.

That will probably be another add-on. I have no plan for it right now. Sorry.

Have suggested this for the RM: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/bidding-system.30156/

In forum, how can we use this line? If checked and I put in "10", it doesn't work:

Bonus for New thread

• Use forum-based value instead of system-wide value (set at 100)

What version of this add-on and XenForo are you using? Please make sure you have the latest version. I have just tested again and it works as expected (no error as in your screenshot). Can you confirm? Thanks.

The bank is offering the money for threads bumps too. I think it is not a good thing. Can you make it to not give any cash for bumps in the next update?
Additionally, If you can integrate this with [LN] blog add on to give specific amount of cash for each blog entry it would be great.

What is thread bump?

What is thread bump?

Bumping a thread means bring an old thread to the top of the forum again.
There are add on to do this such as "Bump a thread" add on.

I'm not sure how the other add-on works to "bump" the thread but if that add-on posts a message to the thread, the message will give bonus as usual. You can set a minimum number of character to get bonus in AdminCP Options

Hello,

For some reason why a member on my forum tries to send money to another user it says unspecified error and it doesn't work. Please help!!

No. it will post the same thread as a new thread, the only difference is it will come to the top of forum and the date and time of the thread will be changed to the date and time that bump happened.
The case is bumping a thread is does not increase the post count by 1, but this add on give money by considering the thread bump as a new thread.

Use a query?

I haven't installed the add-on, so I cannot verify which tables to hit, but it probably uses the user table for storage of the amounts, so the query would be something like:

UPDATE xf_user
SET bankBalance = 0;
