[Release] Voting Reward Script

[alcanor1]

cool seems helpful better than what wowscapes got goin on

[EmuGod]

This is what I made my ascent config to say...

<Mail ReloadDelay="10"
      DisablePostageCostsForGM="1"
      DisablePostageCosts="1"
      DisablePostageDelayItems="1"
      DisableMessageExpiry="1"
      EnableInterfactionMail="1"
      EnableInterfactionMailForGM="1">

and this is the php code...

yes, i changed the sender guid because I don't have one witht he number '1' so I changed it to my mains

bottom line, it's not sending it to my server. I'm quite experienced with html, php, and the likes, but this script is boggling my mind. I've tried several different formats, and btw. I changed the interval to 1 sec so that I can test it till it works

SQL problem:
mysql_query("INSERT INTO mailbox(sender_guid, receiver_guid, subject, body, stationary, money, item_id, item_stack) VALUES (644, $guid, 'Thank you for voting!', 'Collect these tokens as a reward for voting. After you recieve a certain amount, you'll be able to buy custom items', 0, 0, $item, 1)");

[EmuGod]

okay. thought of that, but...what will I put for the guid on the message. like...the actual messages guid. Do I let the mailbox db table do that itself, of is there a way to make it? Like I said, I'm new to the whole php meets mysql stuff. Sorry for the advanced noob questions

[EmuGod]

okay...it's still not freaking workin...I think that we'd have to make it have a way to automate the messages id number...that's the only thing I can think of unless that variable in my scent config is too high or low. how is it measured, seconds? millisecs?
**EDIT** Removed the comma in you'll just in case it was creating problems. I think that it is the variable in the ascent configuration...that's the only thing I can think of unless you see something else.

[EmuGod]

Okay
shweet
fixed it

Dude, I love you...seriously...you're a GAWD...
+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep +Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep+Rep TIME AND TIME AGAIN. I'll post the working php code for you to examine, and use as needed.

that's the working code that is 3.5 compatible. use it love it have it. Thanks man.

[jobbais]

thanks for the script, i use it to give my voters now stamina and intelect and agility scrolls etc, rather then coins or that kind of stuff.

p.s. i never in the script saw any credits that needs to be put in.
Don't you want that?

gr.

[TheSpidey]

I always forget credits :P
Anyways you don't need them. If you're planning to mod this and repost, I do expect to get mentioned though

[Nallman]

Any way you could make this into a voting points script, as in the person voting can create an account and points can be rewarded for that user? When they reach a certain amount they can get the item that they wanted...
If you could that would be great man.

Ok so if I delete my cookies I can get another one, and another one, and another one.

Is there any way we could make it so it remembers which characters have been entered in the last 12 hours?

[sercankd]

yes you can abuse this script with cookies, you need make this script works with mysql

[TheSpidey]

Yep you can abuse it. There's more than one way to stop this though

[chronic7]

Yep you can abuse it. There's more than one way to stop this though

and that would be? I would really like to be able to use this without people exploiting it.
If you can get a hold of me on MSN ([email protected]) to help me out with making it non-abusable that would really help me and my project.

I expect my server to grow fast and I would really like to get this script fixed before I release.
Index of / is going to be my site.
wowlostrealm.servegame.com/vote.php is going to be the vote system.

Here's a hint - databases can hold time, php can compare time

[chronic7]

Here's a hint - databases can hold time, php can compare time

Your hint does nothing for me. I understand a lot of stuff but when it comes to a database out side of WoW I am not to smart with it..

I think your saying I need to somehow interlock a database into this whole thing? But my scripting skills when it comes to php arn't that great...

blah :\

Is there anyway I could get you to help me?
+Rep
and then some? lol
