Hi

 

Is it possible for someone to dev a sp plugin for myCRED ?

myCRED is just like Cubepoints.

Cubepoints is abondoned and myCRED’s author started his own plugin from scratch and is doing a great job with it. Most people that were using cubepoints have moved to mycred.

Can not promise anything of course but will certainly take a look at it….
Thanks for the info.

In ought to ask where you find that CubePoints has been abandoned? Evidence?

If you need it fast, there is also our custom plugin service…  first request, so not a priority, but as Andy says, we will take a look…

Andy, re cubepoints, for about the last 3 months, if you go to http://cubepoints.com, their home, its just displaying a message they will get back online soon…  and last plugin update was about 8 months ago…  but I have not seen any formal word…

I don’t know what a MyCred Simple Press plugin would cost for 100% integration.

But I see I’m not alone in the Simple Press world wanting one.

Is it possible to get an estimate and then let the Simple Press community pitch in to get it done? I’m ready to participate immediately.

Hello good people, 

I’ve extended the possibility of seeing this come to life.

I asked the MyCred developer:

MyCred and Simple Press forum

Hello,

Your plugin seems to be the only existing, reasonable plugin to get a points system going on a WordPress forum.

Thank you for continuing to support the WordPress community.

What would it take to integrate your MyCred plugin so that it would be 100% compatible and 100% functional with the Simple-Press forum?

Thank you,

Chris

We actually have a ticket open to take a look at MyCred…  just a matter of time…  For the next release though, we are focusing only on bug fixes and scalability/stability, and will not be introducing any new features…  after that though, we may take a swing through our plugins…

We could of course come up with an estimate under our custom plugin service, but timing will still be the issue…

Kevin,

I believe you are the same person that contacted us a day or two ago via email about a custom plugin for this, right?

its something we want to look at – cubepoints seems dead…  biggest issue is time availability… its really crunched at moment and the wp 3.8 release and associated required sp changes are top priority at moment with the release in early December…  but more in response to your email/contact soon…

Hey Everyone,

I’ll commit to a $ 100 investment for a MyCred Simple Press complete integration plugin for the community. Or I’ll give a Gold Membership as a gift — either way it’s $ 100 or $ 99 going to SimplePress.

Can we start a contribution campaign on Indiegogo or something to get this plugin done?

The author doesn’t seem interested in developing his MyCred plugin to wire up to SimplePress.

BTW – This reply Editor is JACKED in Chrome. It is one line tall and the scroll arrows at the left edge of this are stacked on top of each other. The only way to see what I’ve typed in here is to keep going to preview again and again…

I think it is probably safe to say that myCred is very high on – if not top of – the list for the next major plugin development. We really need to just shake off Christmas, fix up a few outstanding issues and catch our breath and we will be having a discussion in what comes next – and as I say – I think myCred is a favourite…

There is a thread here somewhere on the Chrome issue. I am pretty sure it has now been firmly diagnosed to be a Chrome bug. What you need to do is resize the editor window (using the bottom right resize handle) and that should then set the cookie for the editor size and retain it for future sessions. Whether that is the case I am unsure but yes – it is down to Chrome to get fixed up.

Good news (hopefully).

According to the myCred site, Simple-Press support was added effective the 1.3.3 update, released December 2nd:

As of 1.3.3, myCRED has a built in support for SimplePress! Once you have installed SimplePress, you will find the “SimplePress” hook on your Hooks page. You can award or deduct points for new topics and topic posts.

I’m still learning the in’s and out’s of both SP and myCred, but I’ll try it out and report back.

Thanks!

Update:

I’ve run a few quick tests with SP and myCred and it looks like the new SP hooks in myCred 1.3.3 are working.

It’s basic though, points awarded (or removed) for topics and posts only.  No points for any other activities within the SP environment that I can tell.

But it’s a start.

Thanks!

really??  myCred built in support for SP?  they beat us to it! ;)

probably limited support since they only do what is in core…  we had added some more via our plugins for polls, ratings, etc…  we should probably reach out to them and offer copies of the plugins if they wanted to add those too…  do you know them?
