Some suggestions/issues for/with the bank module:
Why can't we have fees for withdrawals? I think it should be handled the same as deposits. No statements for deposit costs: On withdrawals, it says "Withdrawals are free" above the "withdraw" button, but on the left side, it doesn't state anything for deposits, not even how much percentage fees are taken off the deposit. No warning, no statement, nothing… Beside of that this is an important information, it also breaks the design, as the deposit button is located a row in height above the withdrawal button On mobile view, the "transactions" link breaks the design... it gets moved out of the title bar Other important suggestions:
membership upgrades to secondary groups (already mentioned above but I list it here again) points depreciation: an option to reduce points by inactivity time if member is inactive (reduce by x percentage per year or per 6 months, if member hasn't been active during this time, I mean something like a negative interest rate) Define maximum total amounts for points on hand as well as for deposits in the bank, so members have to spend their points if they reach the max limit…. New item for members shop: "purchase advertisements in the IPS ads system" on predefined locations with predefined "active time setting" Allow positive/negative points for (positive/negative) reaction GIVERs at the same time, the receiver is awarded with points. I want to award both: (1) the content author receives points for receiving reactions for good contents (already implemented) but also (2) the GIVER for engaging in user engagement. Every reaction counts, so please let us award both at the same time.

For example:  
Is there any accounting overview for users in the frontend? A location, where they can see how much they received or spent for any special actions? Or any option for a daily summary (with an indicator if the user is above or below the community average) Show the points account balance in the header maybe? like this file -> https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/8832-account-balance/ Notification popups or sounds if a member awarded with points is online at that time For donations, there should be a maximum donation amount (per day) - a limiter is requested to avoid misuse. Award points for being subscribed to bulk mail (per day/week/month) and reduce points if not subscribed to bulk email.
-> bulk mail is most important for email marketing, so it has a very high value!! Even more points award triggers (taken from another site off my posts):
Best regards, and as always: your members shop app is awesome!!!

I think IPS should have its own SVG-based (or custom icon font) icon set for the default forum theme, and allow theme creators to specify their own or a library like FontAwesome (again, either SVG or icon font).

You right. Globally IPS doesn't need to include big monstrous FA5 (or any else). But with last Rikki answer, I hope they'll create some build tool for an ability to include custom font build with icons which are actually needed. In my humble opinion, this way will be an amazing solution, which may be named as a really good new improvement. Let's wait and see 

Suggestion on Shop Items:
Allow custom icons Suggestions on Bank:
Suggested fa icons for Deposit / Withdraw: fa_plus_square; fa_minus_square.  There's also ones for dollar, piggybank, etc.  

Just thought I'd bring this back up again since we would (along with anyone else who owns this) would love such a feature.

They could, but in the actual bookmark listing it contains the post object details. An option to have that switch to the topic object details (comment count, last post, last poster name and link, etc) would be incredibly useful. Or for members to be able to select in their bookmark categories how to display the list? So one category could be "favourite posts" another could be "favourite topics"?

+++1 for this great idea of having different sliders on different apps/pages (having the option for a different slider on a per-page basis would be totally cool granularity ).
I'd also add that it would be great to be able to configure, on a per-slider basis, whether or not members could toggle on/off.  Once people have registered I might want them to be able to turn off my splash page advertised-services slider, but maybe I want everyone to see a different slider for as long as I want to broadcast it.
Ok, I guess this answers one of my questions: it can't be set splash-page only.  But as long as my members can get rid of it if they want after they register, that's still a good idea!  Does the toggle state persist with the member's last choice, e.g. if they log in the following day will it still be toggled as they previously set it?

I'd love to see independant sliders on classifieds, iAwards, raffles and members shop.

I will check it out
I will look into secondary group upgrades.
the file on the downloads.
the button will show the price, IF you are not the file submitter, If you are not the submitter the price will show on the button as well as the other places, Once you paid for the download the price will no longer show on the button as it sayd download now xxx points, people might think they need to pay again, so I made it when they purchased it, it's gone from there and just says download,
Same really as nexus, you can not buy your own file so the buy now button is not on show to the submitter

It's the longest any update has took me, and I done over 100 updates last year lol
There is loads more I have got in mind,but if I had continued then it would of just knocked back the release back by longer, so thought I would release this and then start on 1.1.1, I am thinking maybe allow members who have stored items to list them for sale on say a members black market, they could wind up earning some nice points if they buy out the unique items to sell, unless the admin decides hmm here is 5 more, then their unique one is not worth so much, it's all about risk. ( This is just a idea though )

Updated to 1.1.0
New Features
Buy & Use You can now buy & use items straight away without storing it in the members my items page Members will have a choice to buy & use or buy & store Sell Item Back Members can now sell back their unwanted stored items ( this will not put the item back in the store as it could be very old and removed from the store, It will just delete the item ) You can set a % to charge users for selling their items back, Example.. If the item costs 500 points and you set the setting to 20%, the member will get 400 points back as 20% of 500 is 100, So 500 - 100 = 400 points and so on Moderator Permissions Select certain moderators to be allowed to buy items for free If anyone, who has the moderator permissions to buy items for free, Try to sell back any items, they will not receive any points for the item as they didn't pay for it Downloads You can now allow your members to charge points on their uploads in order for other users to download them Set a % in commission to take for each point paid download the upload author gets You can now award your members points for reviewing files ( The amount of points can be set on a per category basis ) You can now awars your members points for commenting on files ( The amount of points can be set on a per category basis ) Forums There is a new button in the forum category matrix allowing you to choose if you want to remove the points awarded for the topics / posts if said topic / post gets deleted ( this is a hard delete if they are still pending deletion then the points will remain until it is permanently  deleted ) You can now award your members points for having their post marked as best answer in question forums Like the other forum points settings the points can be set on a per category basis via the forum matrix settings If the best answer gets changed to another post, it will remove the points awarded to the member with the original best answer and then award them to the member with the new best answer, it will also change the reward log of it to the new member If the best answer gets removed then the points will be removed from the member as well Shop Items Membership Upgrades You can now choose to set member group upgrades permanently as well as for set time periods Custom Code / Coupon You can now create custom code / coupon items, allowing you to add a code to the item what will automatically be sent to the user via PM on redemption, This can be used for any codes including vouchers / game codes etc Buy A Trophy ( Trophies & Medals must be installed for this item ) Pick a trophy from a list of your created trophies and allow your users to buy them Buy A Medal ( Trophies & Medals must be installed for this item ) Pick a medal from a list of your created medals and allow your users to buy them Reset Reputation Points Allow users to reset their reputation points to 0 ( useful if they get hit with lot's of stolen rep from other members and go into the negative ) Clubs You can now choose to award points to users for creating topics in clubs You can now choose to award points to users for replying to topics in clubs You can now choose to award points to users for uploading files in clubs All the club features are set globally and not per category like the forums & downloads matrix's because they are user built it could get out of hand Calendars You can now award members points for creating events in calendars You can now award members points for commenting on calendar events You can now award members points for reviewing calendar events The amount of points awarded can be set differently for different calendars Commerce You can now award members points for reviewing products Member Statuses You can now award members points for adding a status You can now award members points for replying to statuses Warning System When you warn a user you can now set it to penalize them by removing x amount of points ( You can set different points for different reasons ) ACP There is a new menu showing all the current & expired membership upgrades and showing if they are active / downgraded or pending downgrade via the tasks Added filters to the custom purchases page so you can select from 'Needs awarding', 'Awarded' & 'All' Added a new page to the ACP showing all custom item purchases not yet redeemed by the users along with the details of the purchase Added a new page to the ACP showing all of the custom code items bought and if they were redeemed along with the details of the purchase Added a new page to the ACP showing all of the items bought and if they are redeemed along with the details of the purchase Other Added a setting allowing to to transfer all  your evox_points over to shop points, Once you do this all the members evox_points will be set to 0 3rd Party Application integration Automation Rules You can now set a action to award Members Shop points for any of your created conditions You can now set a action to remove Member Shop points for any of your created conditions These features fully expand the ways you can award / remove Member shop points I highly recommend buying this 3rd party application to take this app to the max Media Uploader Award points to users for uploading images Award points to users for uploading video files Award points to users for uploading audio files Award points to users for uploading documents Other Changed the item description to allow use of the editor and alot more text Moved the items description from below the item name replacing the purchases button, you can hover for the description or click for a pop up  
After updating go to the categories you created and re-save the names of them so it will sync with the new friendly urls

Please create for the club newsletters an optional feature in the group settings. I want to sell this feature ("sendout club newsletters") as a VIP feature.
If a member purchases a VIP membership subscription, he should be allowed to have paid clubs and the newsletter feature. Other members (who are in other permitted member groups) may only create free clubs and shouldn't be able to use this "club newsletter" feature without having a special paid membership subscription.
Please consider this. Thanks.

Top! Feature for member shop points would be a great idea! ? 

I would like to "clean" the list of my purchases here. The most apps there are outdated, belong to 3.x, are not active, not available, cannot be renewed and so on. I would like to be able to delete or at least hide them from my list. This way I can better overview the applications I really use and need to upgrade. And I would appreciate if I could sort the purchases by renew date or status.

Some suggestions concerning this, as I have a downloads files portal with free and also paid files, as well as fun files and also files of serious value. So some feature integrations for flexibility might be good, and some protection mechanisms, that portal owners won't impoverish:
charge yes/no per download. The author of each download should be able to select, if his download should be able to be purchased in a points currency or not. why? if we mix up points for fun and points for commerce, we get problems, as users earn points for free (with topics and easily spend them), but then, files authors want to have their points value for paid downloads files in real money back (as withdrawal, after commission on their account). paid downloads, that have to be purchased, should be forced to be paid with real money, and points purchases denied as an option. let downloads files authors specify their downloads files points price themselves. exclude downloads files (or categories) from being purchased with points. some of the files should stay free or stay paid... I reckon, if downloads will be purchased with the points currency, the author will receive the value in points, not in real money on his withdrawal account. Am I right?

Hi, considering your app can put a Validating flag on users (which stock IPS can't do now-days), would it be possible to use it manually rather than integrated with SendGrid etc?

What I mean is that I've recently sent out a newsletter to my users and about 1000 email addresses no longer seem to be valid (a whopping 18% of all email addresses!).

Naturally, I'd like to put these users back to Validation - would you application be able to do it going by a list? Or would you be able to code something like that for me?

Or can it integrate with cPanel email log perhaps? ?

Many thanks.

Not currently but I've added a patch here and will try and get an update out within the next week or two. I'd probably lean towards just having a fixed bit of code in there rather then a setting an admin could disable but open to any thoughts you have here.

All good things come to those who wait lol

 

Hi,
that would be extremely helpful for all (former) evox customers who want to drop this unsupported application. Please consider this as an option.
Though it'll be painful for me to drop the evox points, as I just introduced my moderators about the "member warning function / warnings integration" and the possibility for "points deductions" as an optional member penalty. This might be a good enhancement idea for the future of members shop, too.
Additionally to that, is there any function to tip (donate points) to members DIRECTLY below each post or next to their posts in the user panel? I think I'd need to buy your "enhanced user panel" app, right?

will be in 1.0.9

there already is a bit on the topic posts for donating points, there is also a link in the hovercard and the users drop down menu
I will see what I can do

A new version was just released

Amazing idea

Pending approval:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
This plugin was created to extend functionality provided by @newbie LAC's existing (NB40) Separate Pinned Topics plugin and therefore requires that you have already purchased and use that plugin. Do not purchase this plugin if you are not already using the above plugin. What does this plugin do?
Using jQuery, provides functionality for the 'Pinned Topics' section to be automatically collapsed when a forum's index page is loaded. Admin has the ability to ensure that 'Featured' and 'Unread' pinned topics are always displayed. control the speed at which the expand/collapse effect takes place (slow or fast) User can click on the 'Pinned Topics' header to expand/collapse the listing of topics. Note:
This plugin has been developed with the IPS default theme in mind, and has not been tested on any other themes. If you are using a theme which has made changes to the html upon which this plugin acts, and it fails to work as a result, then please post in the Support Topic and provide a link to your site for review.

If it would support automation rules any day in the future (whenever, even if it's 1 year to wait, or even if it's another event trigger system similar to automation rules), I'd run screaming panegyrically through the streets on 25 planets in 3 galaxies and bring these glorious news to new worlds ? lol, to be serious, the members shop at least deserves 10 stars at this point of time ? currently only 9/5 ?
