I was just looking through my log. I have one Event called "Creating a Topic", that earns 10 Credits. But in my log, it shows that I spent 10 Credits instead. Did I configure something wrong?

I figured out the problem! I needed to set the permissions for Shop. Probably a bunch of other permissions I need to look at too. Cheers!

Stock is set to 10 - 10.

I must be blind. I added some items, ran the Cron to refill the stock, went to the Shop, clicked on something, and I don't see any link, button, voodoo to purchase the item.

Awesome! I totally missed that! Thank you.

When creating an item, I noticed there's a green gear icon to the left of every item I'm creating. Is there someplace to change that Icon to use something I made?

I see there is an Interest option, but I don't see a way to put in a percentage amount, unless I'm supposed to leave the flat amount at zero, and put 0.02 for 2%. Is that how this Event works?

Ah! Got it. Thank you for your patience!

Ah! Okay. I had to read the description a couple of times. I'm a bit slow today, I guess. I compounded both of those sentences together rather than reading them as separate if/then statements. Setting the minimum trigger, would the member still get the initial 5 credits, or do I need to set...

So, currently there's no way to earn additional credits based on character, or am I misunderstanding/missing an option somewhere?

I noticed that there's an option to earn additional Credits based on Character Count, but I need to enable Charging, but wouldn't that deduct a calculated amount of Credits for Posting? I guess I'm a little confused here. What I want is a way to provide additional Credits based on word count...

Okay. I'm sold on the first two, Credits and Shop. Maybe eventually, I'll also add eCommerce. I'm really hoping to be able to encourage Member Participation using the Credits, and I could see adding an option to redeem credits for real world discounts to be something truly motivating.

So, I've been thinking about this for a while. I have a role playing forum with several other extensions added. Shop would allow me tweak permissions, including custom ones from other add-ons? Like I have the Linked Accounts extension, I can control how many sub accounts each User Group...

I'm attempting to keep all this straight in my head. Credits would be used to generate a forum-only based currency. I imagine a very limited set of actions could be done with Credits alone. Shop would be used for gamification of a forum/site. Members could earn Credits via posting, and use...

Even if your forum dies, there's still hope that the one time you share your link, some goober, like myself, may find your forum interesting and join up, start some conversation (even it we're talking Necromancy here--like I'm totally doing here (sorry!!)), and get your forum bubbling again...
