This is the support topic for this modification:

Back in the day I always wanted this mod. I believe in the past somebody else made a very similar mod but it never worked right. When I will be updating my community I will probably use it. 🙂

Good plugin, any chance will have this:

- Vip icon display as well at the post userinfo location for that vip member.

- Can change the vip icon.

Nice suggestions. I have a minor upgrade planned for this modification (widget to show VIP status and number of VIP members in ACP). I'll see if I can include both.

Interesting app. If I use this and promote to a group that can be purchased via a subscription, it would be nice to incorporate commerce and somehow show that the member became VIP and is essentially subscribed or doesn't have to subscribe. Grey out the subscription or something like that. Just an idea.

Is there a way to automate this like group promotions? Based on activity? So to keep VIP, you have to maintain activity every week or month as an example.

No, that's the one thing I decided I won't add. There's really no point in forcing someone to buy Commerce and then handle the subscriptions with my app when Commerce itself can already handle paid subscriptions/packages while doing the same thing. It would be a waste of my time to basically write duplicate code.

Commerce right now returns users to their original group (instead of letting the admins choose) but I am already working on a separate modification that changes the return group for paid subscriptions/packages which should suffice for most people. No ETA just yet though.

This one's another nice suggestion. I won't include it in the next 1.0.1 version since it requires some thinking on how to best implement it, but I'll keep it on my list for a future 1.1.0 version. 👍

a very interesting suggestion indeed. you got something here. this can even be as a separate mod.

This modification is already compatible with 4.7 but I'm working on a new version to add the suggestions from this topic before I mark it as compatible in the IPS marketplace.

Those who have it already installed can keep using it without problems. 👍

Ops, sorry guys. I've had the update ready since last week but I completely forgot to release it... 😅

 

The file is currently pending approval from IPS. Also, considering everything I added, the new version is 1.1.0. Here's the changelog:

Quote

• Added VIP status icon also in topic's user info.
• Added VIP members count in the filter bar when viewing the ACP list.
• Added a new setting to change the Font Awesome icon used to display the VIP status.
• Added a new setting to specify the default VIP status period when adding a new member.
• Added new settings to control the VIP status icon display (global user bar + topic user info).
• Added a widget to display the user's VIP status with an option to keep it showing even when expired.
• When adding a new VIP member, in addition to the default period, the ending time is also prefilled with 23:59.

 

I also looked into group promotions, but the only option available is to add filters based on which members are promoted. There is no way to execute extra actions with the current extension provided by the IPS framework.

 

For now I made a request in the developer forum to include more options in the extension:

The new version has been approved. 👍

Yes, i am interested in adding option in module for multiple VIP groups, as i have VIP Status with different possibilities eg. VIP Bronze, VIP Silver, VIP Gold, there is a need to use and manage different groups.

Does anyone need it also ?

Is anyone else interested in this feature? 🙄

It good to have but not that big issue to me, what important to me at the moment before I buy this that I can add my custom icon instead of font awesome one.

The settings only supports font awesome icons. If you want to use a separate icon (from a different font) or an image you'd need to edit the 2 templates in which the setting is used. But yes, it's possible.

 

Just to double-check, what icon/image do you plan to use?

That will be great.

Just an image I will design later as png for this, custom to our forum.

A png should work just fine then.

That good, I bought it, kindly show me the 2 line I need to edit for this:

Thanks.

@abobader The templates you need to edit are these 2:

• tbvsm > front > global > hookUserBar
• tbvsm > front > topics > hookPostContainer

 

The code that controls the icon is the following:

<i class="fa fa-{expression="\IPS\Settings::i()->tbvsm_display_icon"}"></i>

You need to replace it with the image you want to use. And depending on how you're adding it to the user bar (background image, image directly in the code, or anything else) you might need to add some CSS in the custom.css file using these classes for the rule ".cVipStatus .cUserNav_icon".

Thanks!

Hi, I'm interested. As already suggested before, I am also interested in the option of adding more than one type of vip, for example: "VIP Member" and "Super VIP" or "Bronze", "Silver", "Gold". If you already have this option, please let me know, I'm interested in buying. Thanks.

Hello, no it's not supported in the current version.

You're the second person showing interest in having an option for multiple groups to be treated as VIP.

 

I'm going to add this feature to my todo list, but I'm a bit busy with other works right now so no ETA on when I'll add it.

Hi @teraßyte I just notice the app expire on last April, how to renew now since no option to do that. Thanks.

IPS also posted this in the closure news:

• You will be able to obtain a key for each of your current Marketplace purchases and provide that key to authors to transfer your purchases directly to the author

We haven't received any info about it yet, because IPS is still working on it.

I'll post an update in all support topics here, and a topic on my site as soon I know more about it. 👍
