(I'm just trying to understand this so I can recommend this method to people). If they has account credit and the setting is ON, it will appear. You can enable it in your Commerce install so people can add credit to their accounts. 3 minutes ago, Joey_M said: Could you please tell me how I can fix something within the template so that it matches my site, it's simple but I can't figure it out.

Joey_M Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Could you add a way for us to limit the amount of tickets rather than the amount of people who can take part? I would like to sell a set amount as per the rules of where I live, rather than saying 40 people and only 1 ticket per go. It would be easier to just sell 40 tickets.
Adriano Faria Posted January 3, 2019 Author Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) 40 people and 1 ticket per people will do what you want. I don’t see any sense in restrict a raffle per ticket, sorry. It’s the same of ask to NOT make money with it or even give the oportunity to someone buys 40 tickets, etc. There's no plan to do that. And please do as I request in the file description, if you want to get some attention to your requests: Quote Suggestions and Bugs report: Submit suggestions to the Suggestions forum: http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/forum/35-suggestions/ Submit bug reports to the official Bug Tracker for this app: http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/tracker/raffles/ Create an account and wait until I move you to the right group.

Your method means that 40 people are required outright just to take part, if I lower it - I can't afford to give away prizes. In real life people don't do raffles expecting to sell tickets to x amount of people, they aim to sell the tickets. I know what you mean but I am sure others would find this to be more useful. Thanks, I don't really have the time to be joining every devs forum. I'll stick to IPS for now but you do a good job.

Selling 40 places could mean I take far more from doing 1 raffle, than I would doing 2 with 20 raffle tickets. If you operate under strict guidelines, BTW I am registered with my areas council and I operate under gambling laws (hence the suggestion to limit per ticket). You may actually be required to sell tickets to a certain amount, something which we have no control over currently. Just because you and your community likes this setup, well that's great. However, my comment was a mere suggestion and I shouldn't be forced to register elsewhere in order to make this possible. I never said I didn't like or appreciate the application, so your comment 'if you don't like the answer then don't use the app or buy it.' is pretty irrelevant. Clients of IPS should be fully allowed to post feature suggestions within the support topics, after all to request something generally includes some form of support. What makes me laugh is how some people can't respect other people or understand that people won't have the time to register elsewhere. Besides, most devs I've worked with refuse to register accounts on clients sites in order offer adequate support - how is this any different than asking us to join theirs? Anywho, I have no issue with Adriano knocking back the suggestion but I did want to squash this "40 people and 1 ticket per people will do what you want." as limiting to one ticket would naturally make any raffle harder and again, depending on your local areas rules or countries gambling regulations you may be required to limit the tickets. I don't expect you to understand this. -- Be aware that may have local laws regarding paying for the tickets unless you are registered as a non-profit organization, or have special authorization to do so. Some sites like Paypal usually shut accounts down or even can take actions against the accounts of people using their site in that manner. Indeed they do. If you can't make a valid request I won't purchase, my suggestion was very valid but again I accept Adriano's decision.
Adriano Faria Posted January 5, 2019 Author Posted January 5, 2019 The app will have a new verison for IPS 4.4. Two new nice features is already added and working. I will talk about them later. I am currently accepting suggestions. I will probably rethink this.
Joey_M Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I think I've found a bug and it's pretty random, so I am unsure as to how it's triggered or how can be replicated. However, I keep getting account credit and it's always in the region of what I put my raffle tickets to cost. It starts at the lowest amount but can build to an alarming total. Reason I say it must be connected, it's always in the region of the ticket prices and grows in the same number. One thing could be that I'm the raffle creator? I don't know, I am checking other accounts and haven't noticed the same behaviour yet. 🤷♂️
Adriano Faria Posted January 8, 2019 Author Posted January 8, 2019 Field when adding/editing a raffle/giveaway: $return['price'] = new \IPS\nexus\Form\Money( 'raffle_price', $item ? json_decode( $item->price, TRUE ) : array(), $priceRequired, array(), function( $val )...... $item->price is the cost of the raffle. And it saves same way: /* Ticket Price */ if( \IPS\Request::i()->do == 'submit' AND isset( $values['raffle_price'] ) ) { $this->price = json_encode( $values['raffle_price'] ); } So there's no way to, somehow, it shows the user account credit there. Everything related to account credit only appears in the Commerce extension tied to a setting to allow pay for tickets using Account Credit: /** * @brief Can use account credit? */ public static $canUseAccountCredit = FALSE; /** * @brief Can use account credit: according to the app setting */ public function __construct( $memberOrGroup=NULL, \IPS\nexus\Money $price ) { parent::__construct( $memberOrGroup, $price ); static::$canUseAccountCredit = \IPS\Settings::i()->raffle_use_account_credit ? TRUE : FALSE; } So let me know if you know how to reproduce because it seems impossible to me.
Adriano Faria Posted January 8, 2019 Author Posted January 8, 2019 That's how raffles/giveaway layout will show up on IPS 4.4: Cover photo Prizes at the top, listing up to 6. The other prizes can be seen by clicking in a link Participants: 6 per line. New setting to you decide how many to show and if you want to show the member name below the photo. There are, so far, 2 more new features that I will talk about them later. 👍 Cyboman and Joey_M 1 1

If I credit any account via the ACP, my own account gets the money also. Weird.

I.E If you sell to x amount of people or x tickets, they can choose a number and their username gets shown on that. In pubs in the UK, they used to do fundraisers called guess the number, spot the ball, etc. Fun little games.

Michael R Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Is there a way to "cart" the tickets from different raffles and pay once or does each item require a separate transaction? Not sure if I have set this up the best way. I have 5 prizes but not everyone wants to purchase tickets for each prize. So I created 5 different raffles. But some people complained that they should be able to purchase tickets from all the raffles and then check out. suggestions?

No. This is handled by Commerce, not by Raffles. The same exact issue happens on Downloads. 👍

Adriano Faria Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 You mean the block title? It’s been there since version 1.0.0 and shows raffles/giveaways ordered by expire date. Happens that your expiring date is the same in all records. If you don’t like the phrase, just change it in your ACP.

I only run a raffle once a year, so I am just noticing it again. If I understand correctly, if I run multiple raffles all expiring on the same date, the title says: Expiring date ? Why wouldn't it say: Active Raffles or Current Raffles something like that? What do you mean change in ACP? You mean in Languages?

Why wouldn't it say: Active Raffles or Current Raffles something like that? Because that block lists raffles ordered by the expiration date. The weird here, or at least not common, is have several raffles expiring together. First time I see this so the best way to go is change the language bit in your install.
