Introduction
The Gold Shop is a plugin that utilizes the Monetary System's economy to allow forum owners to create virtual shops. If you wondering how people earn this virtual money, you're in the wrong place. Please go to this thread for information about earning money or any other questions regarding the Monetary System.
The Gold Shop not only allows members to buy things in the shop, but it also allows them to give items to other members as gifts. Additional features as well as moderation features are listed in the Features section.
Feature List
1. Buying Items (Items must be defined by Administrator)
2. Gift Exchanging
3. Item Returning
4. Moderator add or remove items
How To?
How do I get to the shop page?
In the lower left corner of your browser, whilst viewing your forum, you should see a little button that looks like this:
. Click on the image and it will take you to your forums shop page.How do I buy an item?
While your viewing the shop page, hover over the item you wish to buy. As you hover over it, a grey overlay will appear. Click on the dollar sign and it will take you to the page where you can purchase the item.
Where can I find information about an item?
Go back to the shop page, hover over the item you want to buy, and then hit the "i" button. That will take you to the items information page where you can view all the information about that item.
I'm a mod and I want to do add an item to a users profile without having buy it first, how do I do this?
First, your going to need the ID of the item you wish to give to the user. So go to the shop page, find the item you wish to give, go to that items information page, and find the ID of the item. (Last item in the information list) Once you've acquired the ID of the item, go to the profile page of the user you wish to add that item to. On their profile page, click on the options menu (next to the Send Message button), in the drop-down you should see "Add Item", click on that. It will take you to the add page, and the rest is pretty self explanatory. (All of this presupposes that you are added to the "removers" in the "misc." tab of the plugins settings.)
I'm a mod and I want to a remove an item from a users profile, how do I do this?
Go to the profile of the person you wish to remove an item from. Click on the options menu next to the "Send Message" button and select "Remove Item". This will take you to the remove page where you can specify what item to remove, and how many of that item you wish to remove.
Where did the Give button go?
All buttons that do anything on the profile page have been moved to the options menu next to the "Send Message" button.
