Hey man,

I installed this on a demo forum I'm playing around on, tweaked the earning triggers and nothing has worked save the achievement trigger.

I just tried making a new thread and it didn't award credits to my account for it.

Hmm, weird. I'll look into it.

Yeah, I made another new thread in a different forum just to verify it wasn't an issue with the forum itself and it still didn't award any credits for the thread.

Yeah, I pushed a fix, should be good to go now. 🙂

Seems to be working now, thanks!

This credits system is very interesting but it can disrupt the forum if not controlled 😅Once money-like system is attached to a forum, some people would spam post just to farm points. I have seen it happen on many forums.

Is there a way to add icons so people can purchase icons for their profiles/posts?

Just noticed this bug, when adding credits to a user manually via ACP, the notification says their balance was adjusted by 0 instead of the amount given:

Also having trouble with username styles for the credit shop. I added a 'Bold Username' item in the shop, and when purchased, the name does not change. Currently using this for css: font-weight: 700;

Yeah I'm not really understanding how it works.

Under Custom CSS I put:

.sparkles {background:url(https://sonicblast.org/images/stars.gif) repeat scroll 0 0%;color:#b76db7;font-size:13px;padding:3px 10px;font-family:Andes;text-shadow:2px 3px 0px #430ed5;}

So in the item for the shop, do I just put in .sparkles in the shop manager for .css class?
