Gold Shop [discontinued]

[Texas]

Yea, I actually just figured that out an hour ago I've added it to the regular expression that will remove characters that break the class/id's of the containers

P̌̓aͧś̀t̀u͒le͆o͂2̀3̃̓: Actually, I have yet to start development on pBey. Right now I am finishing development on the v3 of the Shop, which is prepping for pBey. I needed to revise the way items were stored so that it was a lot more compact.

I've also been thinking of ways to set up pBey. I actually came up with an idea last night, the idea was so good I actually called myself a genius Anyway, the idea is to use a forum key to store "unimportant" data. So, data that's doesn't relate to any single persons items. This way, if someone overwrites someone else, it's not that important. So, the idea is, you create an item and submit it. The item them has to be approved by a mod. Once it's established as a valid item by a mod, people can start selling. When a person wants to sell an item, they go to the pBey page, and submit the item. In the forum key, all that is added it their username to the item that they want to sell. Meanwhile, the data for the actual transaction is stored in their own super user key.

This way, if someone overwrites the fact that they just applied to sell something, the data is in their super user key. If we constantly check to make sure the data in the forum key, matches the data of the current member, then we'll catch the fact that "bob" has an item for sale in his super user key, but it's not listed in the global forum key. Then we can just use a simple alert box to say that the forum key needs updated and that get's rid of all the potential problems with overwriting.

By the way everyone, pBey will be an ad-on to the Gold Shop, I don't want to force an extra super key on everyone that uses the shop, plus I'm not sure that all the code for both pBey and the Gold Shop would fit in one plugin (gold shop is already at 1200 lines).

That sounds like a decent enough approach.
The forum key will hold user number and item name. Which you could make in a big list somewhere.
And then when they go the the user's page, they can see everything. Because the super key information isn't available until you are on their page. However to make it a user/action, you will have to make it a confirm box instead of an alert box, I believe. Your super user key is also going to need space for your purchase history, unless you are going to tie that into the shop.

Just curious but what has been updated for the gold shop or what's in the planning since in the library the Gold Shop is still v2.1.2 and the first post hasn't been updated by Texas with what features been added/removed. XD

Bahaha, thanks. Seems like a lot happened and I have no idea what.

Just so you know, it was a simple mistake by me for the shop not to appear on my forum. I figured it out but thank you for your time

Hi, Texas. A member using Internet Explorer 11 has problems gifting. It seems if the member she wants to gift has only 1 line of gifted items, it works, but it doesn't work with 2 or more lines of gifted items.

Another member has the same problem, but with Google Chrome, unable to access the shop in Internet Explorer.

Okay you've had this asked by me before and I hate to be a pain Texas but is there a way to hide specific items or hide a specific item category from members so that only staff can see that item or item category? Just makes it easier if we wanted to do one off special items.

Thanks.

Sorry that I haven't been on here in a while, but, alas, I won't be on very much in the near future. I apologize, but I'm stacked up with life currently and can't spend any time on my "hobbies". I realize this is an annoyance for you guys, but there is nothing that can be done. I will get to all of your problems as soon as I can. But things probably won't clear up for several weeks to a month.

Hi just want to say I love the plug in! I have one suggestion or request tho, is there a way to implement how a person can tell who gave them a gift?

[obliveon]

Hi there. I installed the Gold Shop plugin on my forum, but no one [including me] can find it. I also installed the Monetary System and that Yootil thing that I was told to install. Can you help me?

Did you create a custom page for it?

Hi Texas
I'm just checking on that plugin again. Are close? I know you've been busy.
Be blessed
