Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
SerialNoob Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Hello, First, thank you for this app. On my forum, I need points to be deducted whenever a content (topic, comment etc) is deleted; it would be great if you could make that happen. Is there a chance to make this app compatible with automation rules?
Cyboman Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) I like the idea of 1 simple shop page, it's easy to understand and overview for everybody! But would it be of advantage to have an easy categorization option? I think yes! What I mean is, that there are different types of items: gamble items function items membership items custom items (maybe custom items #1, custom items #2...) If we could put category title separator rows between the items, that could be a helpful feature and help the design to become even more awesome. What I mean is like this: ===================================================== GAMBLE ITEMS CATEGORY ===================================================== random points This is the random points text purchase now 100 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- steal points This is the steal points text purchase now 10000 ===================================================== CUSTOM ITEMS CATEGORY ===================================================== custom item This is the custom item text purchase now 50000 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... This would help the overview enormously and look really good! Plus: If I can assign items to any category without restriction, and I can (re)order the categorys like I wish them to be, I could create a PREMIUM ITEMS category on the top of the list with the most precious items first! Like topsales or most advertised. I could make a VIP group promotion stand out and be somehow highlighted. It would trigger the interest of my members in the members store even more. Or I could create a NEW category a.s.o. For marketing reasons this would be nice. Another design improvement would be if I can select 1, 2 or 3 items and they would be featured in a special highlighted box with colored background on the top. With a very big Font Awesome symbol and BIG, BOLD letters. That would speedup sales very fast. Members love BEST OFFERS. One other issue: If I award a free custom purchase via the ACP, it is shown in the rewards & logs given by me, Cyboman... BUT: Ideally, this should show as being given by a preselected chosen neutral "bot account". Thanks. Edited January 8, 2018 by Cyboman

Yeah that is possible, I already have wrote a script to do this as I have had it requested already, There will be a switch for if you want the users to earn points by posting on the forums or it will take points from posting on the forums and if it's to take you need points to post otherwise it will say sorry you need x points to be able to post etc etc, This will be in a future update. 8 hours ago, SerialNoob said: s there a chance to make this app compatible with automation rules? Once I have it where I am happy I will start making it so that others can use extenstions from it. At the minute my first priority is to build this one up first with new features 4 hours ago, Cyboman said: This would help the overview enormously and look really good!

SerialNoob Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 Thanks for answering. Is it possible to add custom fields to custom shop items.. I would like to add few items that would require input from members.
Tripp★ Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 When being used with Anatik's point's application; is the fact that it doesn't honour the name of the points, or it's symbol something that was intentional, or is something broken? Lets say I called my currency "Cyber Dollars" with the "$" mark. It's honoured and called this in Anatik's application, and despite the fact I have named it as such and told the shop to use that app; it still calls them points and doesn't display any mark, which is not very uniform across both apps. If this is intentional, I assume it can be completely edited in the language bits?
JTHastings Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Question: I am using both Points and Members Shop, in Members Shop settings if I use "evox_points" in the "What Points" drop down will it still apply the Bonus Points from the settings on the next tab? (see Pics)

GrooveOnBeat Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Sorry if I missed it, but is it possible to create an unlimited amount of trophies, set prices for them, and add them into the shop for members to purchase? Is it possible to create an unlimited amount of custom items, set prices for them, for members to purchase?

Since trophies can be any kind of graphics and displays in post user panes, it makes for a powerful and flexible award system for communities. There can be common, exclusive, limited/special, and more types. It's to the imagination. For me, this will be an important component of the awards system. If it's possible, I'm willing to pay extra for the work as I know this is a custom request. If not, that's ok...But I hope that you will consider. Edited January 11, 2018 by GrooveOnBeat

Cyboman Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) In Evo-X Points, we can set a font awesome symbol (as a currency image) to be shown directly before each points value. It would be really nice, if the members shop functionality could adopt this, at least in the shop. F.e. PURCHASE FOR 30 would become PURCHASE FOR (#) 30 And on the top of the shop: YOU HAVE (#) 100 POINTS I currently don't know how many blank characters are between the symbol and the value (probably 1). But anyway, I'd love to see a consistent look, if possible. And this would be a design enhancement, too Edited January 12, 2018 by Cyboman JTHastings 1
JTHastings Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Just a couple of minor typos in the Statistics Page under both Shop Stats and Gamble Stats. "BROUGHT" should be "BOUGHT"
JTHastings Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 This is just a personal comment and NOT a bug/fix/issue that needs correcting: I have found that the default settings for the Mystery Boxes make it way too easy to build up a HUGE amount of points in no time. I've rolled these back quite a bit. I think the original idea behind this point system is to promote forum activity/content.

You need to make sure that the expected value of your points reward is less than the points cost. For example, if it costs you 5 points for buy the Mystery Box, then you need to make the Mystery Boxes give an average of less than 5. JTHastings 1
ChrisTERiS Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 My apologies if this question answered before, but the only that I found was a relevant suggestion. The only that I want to "sell" are downloads. eg A global setting 100 points each download, a better case amount of points depending on the category, and with the best option amount of point to be per file. But as I said, even a global setting for all is ok for me. Is this supported? Thank you Chris Joel R 1

I don't reckon that points for free downloads would support the points idea, as your bandwidth usage would explode directly... It requires a restriction to award points "only to paid downloads and only once per file".

Now active and non active members can download. At least with point system I can restrict it to active members. But does it supports or not?
MediaDiGi Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) 1) I've purchased days ago Members Shop app and Id like to use the Basic Points app by @Mike John. Is this possible? 2) Is it possible with your app that users use points to purchase items from the shop powered by Commerce application? Edited January 17, 2018 by MediaDIGI.com
