We've upgraded the site to IPB 3.2!

I've also upgraded to Beta version of ibEconomy and Custom Sidebar Blocks.

Everyone, please use ibEconomy a bunch, just browse around, buy some random stuff, post for points, rep for points, etc. Let me know in this topic if anything doesn't work properly.

Also, if anyone has a test 3.2 board and would like to beta test ibEconomy, please say so.

edit oh man, my Shop Item squares and my Points (Like) button working I can see, good start.

stocks don't work! I get an error.

[emoney emoney]

fixed!

If its not too late I just have a couple suggestions after playing with it for a while.

First I like how when you type in members name it automatically finds relevant members, Could you add that to Quick Donate Button on top right of ibeconomy? So it can be even quicker.

Second this would be cool but to have a continue shopping button on the shopping cart that sends you to the most recent page.

Also what do you get points for? Did you add any new points things?

Also I would love to be beta tester!

1) yah, I would like that too, unfortunately since they are both JavaScripts (the popup and the auto find) there is some conflict when I tried to use both together. Maybe one day I will figure it out, but for now the popup wont contain the auto suggestion feature.

2) ah, good idea, I'll add it to my list. Maybe not for 2.0 but for at least some future release.

3) No but yes. What I mean is that there are no new ways of earning points in this version yet, BUT the entire app was refactored to allow for easier future additions (many of which are point-earning related). So once 2.0 spreads out and is stable, I'll begin make announcements about the new system and new projects in the pipeline.

K, if you have a test board I'll send you a copy.

I have a test board running 3.2 that I would be interested in BETA testing for you.
I know that I am only new to your board and new to IBEconomy but I know how to BETA test, and know how to test and report issues.

And know how to sweet talk you by directing you to our other conversation on the other website re: Donation

[emoney emoney]

Cool, I'll probably be PMing you guys Friday afternoon (after my test and work) so we can have a big weekend to test on our test boards.

I found a couple small issues so I fixed them and released version 1.6 here just now.

That's cool, I am happy to help out where I can and if that means beta testing then I will do it
You got me excited yesterday when I was browsing MarketPlace and saw that you have updated over there - I thought it was 3.2 version until I went in haha.

Keep up the good work. I will make the donation we spoke about this afternoon, I can already tell this is something my members would really enjoy.

Oh and another suggestion is allowing for suffix not just prefix for points so lets say I want it to be Experience Points I would want it to be Price: 25 XP but right now all I could do is Price: XP 25. Just a thought.

[emoney emoney]

There is already a prefix and postfix for points. For that setup you describe, use "XP" for Currency Name and input nothing for Currency Symbol.

[coltsman]

Also is there any way to make the points you get for doing stuff to change based on your group? So lets say for every post a member gets 30 points, well can i make it so that for the moderaters every post they make they get 50 points? Is this available? If not would it be hard to do? I need it as soon as you release the mod. I could pay for your services!

[coltsman]

O I just found a bug (kind of) You can like your own stuff (lol) and you still get points. People will abuse this and not truly get points for likes.

It is an ibEconomy group setting, called "Forum Points Percentage".

Not a bug, that is how it's designed. I figure if the admin is OK with a user giving themselves rep, then they are probably OK with that rep earning them points too.

[coltsman]

O Great Thanks! Wait so allowing the user to like themselves is a setting? Well of course their gonna like it, they posted it! lol

O and when is the projected release date?

[emoney emoney]

Still hoping within a week or so. I'm actually noticing some slowness on this site since upgrading, not sure if it is ibEconomy related or my host. I would need to make sure of that first before going further.

If anyone has a test 3.2 board, not hosted by HostGator, please PM me with a link to the test board and ACP access. I'll send you the current ibEconomy build and we can test it out on your server.

[coltsman]

PM sent!

[Sportainment]

Damn it coltsman,
I started to install a test board just for this purpose haha

[emoney emoney]

The more the better.

[emoney emoney]

I've disabled it for now, working on something...

[coltsman]

Oooo.....A New Feature?
