Features in vBShop 2.0:

  • Multi-Currency Support
    Those of you interested in selling real-world items should find this a welcome change - you can now have a "special" currency that can only be used for purchasing your special items.
  • "Custom Field" Items (w/ purchase & configuration notification)
    A new item type has been added, "Custom Item", which allows admins to define up to 5 fields to be filled out by the member upon configuration of the item. You can be notified either when someone buys the item, or when they actually fill out the fields (or both).
  • Revamped Shop Layout
    One of the main problems of vBShop v1 was that the layout wasn't exactly stellar, and having Gifts and Items separate was confusing to members. Both these problems have been corrected for v2.
    The layout uses AJAX for adding items to the shopping cart.
  • Revamped Purchase Process
    It is now possible to buy more than one item in one go, via the use of a shopping cart. For that reason, we've split the "configuration" from the "purchase" process.
    What this means is, say a member buys "Username Change". Upon completion of their purchase, they will be redirected to their inventory, where they can click "Configure" for the newly purchased item. This is the page that lets them actually change their username.
    The main reason why we implemented this change is that it is now possible to set items to be re-usable. To follow up on the above example, a member may use the item to change their usernames multiple times (either infinitely, or until the item expires.)
  • Expiring Items
    Items can now have a duration (in days).
  • Stock
    Each individual shop can have its own individual stock (and price / currency) of an item.

Note: Some of the features described are Pro-only. Please refer to the feature breakdown on the Product Info for details.

The following features are missing from vBShop v1.x and will be restored over the course of the next couple of weeks:

  • Lotteries
    • No data from existing lotteries will be carried over to the final incarnation of vBShop 2.0 lotteries due to the vast differences in data storage and functionality.


In addition the following has changed on all mods:

  • The copyright footer on the Standard / Lite versions has been changed to include "Runs best on HiVelocity".

You can grab them either from your Customer Area or the Lite Downloads areas.


P.S: Mention DragonByte Tech to the HiVelocity sales team for a 10% discount :)
