When you click vBCommerce, you can buy stuff.
But how do you make stuff for people to buy? :desudesudesu:

Oh, okay, thanks xD
You should make so you can if you pay enough points, just an idea -w-

I like that idea. I can't make art myself but I'm sure people would like to sell their art via the shops.

I will consider, it wont hurt to allow everyone to make their own shops though.

I really like this idea! How ever before doing it you would need a way to sort it.

:3 Me too, and as a price/cost it's credits...

But what should we use credits for? To buy premium membership for # weeks/months? Well I dunno xD

To buy from other users shop I would think. I mean what's the point of having a points system if there is nothing to by?

I'm excited about the idea of being able to buy things, hence why I want to sell art. That way I could purchase codes and the like.

Roconza=> You know, Mys is quite new, so there's lots of stuff WIP so I think we should be patient a bit xD
And there is quite a few things at the moment xD

Um when was I impatient? I'm just saying that we have points and code credits but so far it's a little hard to earn enough to buy most of what we have in shop.

Any how I'd like to have it to sell smileys Packs for fun.

well tbh I didnt quite know how the VBcommerce shop functioned until the day I installed this addon to VBulletin forum. I will still need to study more into this shop system and see what is the best way for it to work out. The shop in future can be used as a free market in which everyone can create/buy/sell items. For a market to serve its purposes, we will need more people. I can make everyone capable of selling items in future though, its about time.

Why more people? I say if you did add it could attract more people. Think about it would encourage people to earn more points to get items. The more item that are already up the more people will want to work to be active and sell.

I think we should make more thing to keep people here. Not just download the stuff and run off. We need to build a community and to do that we have to make the forum a interesting place to hang out. I think we should encourage people to be active and this would be a perfect excuse.

Let's face it this forum has gotten a bit slow now.

Alright, everyone should be able to create items and itemshops on the forum now, also you can sell your items at any price you set(dont make it too high though, or people wont buy it. the idea of economics demand/supply works here too. XD). Enjoy.

First to create an item you'll have to be in your shop's control panel at http://www.mysidiaadoptables.com/forum/commerce_shop.php?do=shopcp

There is a drop down menu that reads:
Create New < Drop Down Menu >Item [ Go ]

You just have to click on that to make items. ;)

There is none for me. HOF are you sure we have full permission in the item shop?

elfhome
02-20-2011, 05:44 PM
Weirdness. I don't see anything. It would be strange if there were separate permissions because not many people want to make a shop but not sell anything...

Anyways, let us say you paid 5000 for an adoptable set. How many stages and/or recolors would you expect?

RoconzaArt
02-20-2011, 05:50 PM
I think you should aim a little lower. Since not a lot of people would have 5000 unless there active.

I am pretty sure you can create items. Go to your shop control panel and you will find the create new items section on top of the page:

Typo. 1000 credits. I was thinking 1000 for a full set.
I don't see anything on the top. O.<

I see Update Shop: NAME OF SHOP
Shop Profile...

Oh sorry about that, I didnt know I have to edit global settings. I updated your usergroup permissions and thought it should be all fine.

Anyway it is supposed to work for you now, lemme know if you still get a problem.
