You can use the "User promotions" system in XF2 to promote users, and Credits does insert itself into the User Criteria system, so that may work for you

Thanks! I'm looking into how to do that for Trophie's as well. Another question came to mind. The Dragon Shop and Dragon Credits addons have created two entities known as Credits. Once counts characters. The other does not. How do I get the Shop to use the Currency listed under the Credits Addon?
Thanks!

You can integrate the Shop currency with the Credits currency by changing the points field to be equal between them, and also selecting the DB Credits currency in the integration menu in the currency settings.

I updated it, but when I try to give a warning with someone who doesn't have enough credits, I get this error.
Code:

ALTER TABLE xf_user MODIFY dbtech_credits_credits DOUBLE NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'Fillip

Thanks for the reply! I'm trying to wrap my head around this. So I've enabled integration and posting awards the integrated currency, but it doesn't change/move the Shop Currency at all. So it's not accumulating and working properly so I can purchase anything. There has to be a setting somewhere that I am missing.

Got it working. Is there a way to set it up so that, for example, you use your Points to buy something from the shop but it doesn't detract from Credits? Only Shop Points?

I don't think there's an option for that, but one way you could do it is to create a second currency, Dollahs, and have users gain them at the same rate as Credits. So the one currency will show the maximum currency attained and the other one will be spent on Shop purchases.

No worries! I did exactly that and it worked! Thanks so much! New problem though. When setting up a paycheck event, the section that lets me specify length of time between payouts isn't showing up.

I believe this is one of the few things you'll go into AdminCP -> DragonByte Credits -> Manage Event Triggers for. You can set the number of days (and a date to start from, which helps determine what day of the week the paycheck will be on) under Advanced Settings for Paycheck. Default seems to be every 7 days on Friday.
Be careful not to delete anything in Event Triggers, though. That could cause you to have to reinstall the add-ons and start over.

This is one of the things I'm going to make sure to improve in the re-engineered version - I made it so it would be possible for me (running in debug mode) to modify the event trigger settings, but it had unintended consequences when dealing with disabled checkboxes and forms that could lead to erasing all the settings for event triggers, which is somewhat sub-optimal.

Sounds good.
Will you also be updating the filters for the Transaction Log? I can't recall if I've seen it reported, yet, but I've noticed it won't actually filter for users, and filters for event/currency will disappear if you try to go to the next page. Not a major issue, of course, but now I've got someone complaining his points aren't right and I have 103 pages of transaction log to sift through to show him that yes, they are correct.

You're welcome. I've been in that position myself before. Now that I'm better at figuring these things out, I try to help out where I can.
Getting started is hardest, but it will get easier for you.

It should be hotfixed in the latest version but I will review every piece of functionality - after all, I have to, since almost 0% of the existing code will be keptSounds good.
