[ADMN/WEB] [BukkitDev] Buycraft -The most advanced Donation Plugin.

Discussion in 'Archived: Plugin Releases' started by lmc, Aug 16, 2011.

  1. [​IMG]
    Over 100,000 servers have used Buycraft over the last 2 years.
    What is Buycraft, and why does my Minecraft server need it?
    Buycraft enables you to sell in game items/memberships to your community, allowing yourself to fund your server bills to keep your Minecraft server alive. Buycraft is basically an online shopping cart system for your own server!​
    How will my players use Buycraft?
    After you have created a Buycraft account, you are given an online webstore which you can use to promote your items for sale. Your players will visit this website and be able to purchase the items that they want, be it a collection of armour, or a monthly VIP membership.​
    What can I sell to my users, and how?
    Buycraft enables you to sell ANYTHING to your users, from a collection of armour upgrades, to monthly VIP memberships. When a player purchases a product, it is automatically processed on your Minecraft server, and removes all hassle of managing payments by yourself. All these different options will take the worry out of funding your Minecraft server.​
    Some of the awesome features available:
    • Create donation packages which can reward your players with anything you imagine.
    • Setup advanced packages for memberships ranks, with support for automatic Paypal subscriptions.
    • Many Payment gateways supported! (Paypal, Stripe, Google Wallet, Paymentwall, 2Checkout, Onebip, Paygol, Payza, and Coinbase.)
    • Coupon codes to offer discounts to your players.
    • Run promotional sales to gain attention to certain donation packages.
    • Cumulative ranking to enable your players to upgrade their ranks.
    • Custom variables to offer advanced customisation of your packages.
    • Detailed donation statistics to see how well your server is performing.
    • Multiple webstores per account, with the ability to create sub accounts for your other moderators/administrators on your server.
    • Advanced fraud protection to prevent chargebacks.
    • Webstores available in over 8 languages.
    • You can change your webstore theme and even integrate it into your own website.
    • Everything is hosted by us, resulting in a hassle free and inexpensive way to run your own webstore! The Buycraft platform is updated regularly with many new features added each month.

    Is version 5.3 compatible with the latest Bukkit version?

    It should be. Buycraft doesn't use any NMS code as far as I know, so it generally doesn't break on updates.

    Hi, could someone please clarify whether it's actually possible to modify the navbar dropdown lists or the style of the navbar items in anyway? I've tried multiple styles which should all, in theory work. I've tried them all with Chrome's Inspect Element feature, and all the modifications work, however whenever I try to apply the CSS code to the theme in the Buycraft panel it doesn't have any effect. The only conclusion I can come to is that editing the navbar list items has been disabled...

    Example of code that has no effect:
    Code:
    .navbar .nav > li > a {
    font-weight: bold;
    }

    A suggestion: In my server, there are 2 packages, Vip Gold and Vip Diamond. I would like to know, if you could add a option, to add the expiration days, of each package together.

    For Example: A player has 30 days left, If he buys another package with 30 days.He wil have 60 days left, even with diferent packages.

    I know this may be disregarded as it is only coming from one person, but some people may not have the will to commit to such large prices when they are not guaranteed a profit.

    My only solution to this is either

    Take a percentage cut
    For instance what if i bought premium and only make 10 quid/bucks a month? That means i am at a loss for my server is still small and so it is not generating enough revenue and so my profit is declining. If you took sat a 10% cut, you do 10.0 * 0.1 = 1 quid/buck, meaning you make

    Give a free trial of a month or two
    Pretty self explanatory. Can be activated when the user wants so therefore they can build their reputation up first and then they can start adding in the chance to donate.

  14. Sorry however our current pricing model suits nearly all customers and we will not be changing. I can't give any more info on this as its against Bukkits T&C. Feel free to tweet @Buycraft if you wish to discuss more.

    Taking a cut would suit more. Especially if it was limited at $5.99 a month. Plus, you've got competition! paycraft.co

    You seemed to tune out at the second sentance.

    The option "Required Packages" if u made it so there was an "Or" option, that would be great.

    Example:

    For a player to purchase rank Rank C, they are required to have Either Rank A "OR" Rank B. (Not Both remember, Just one or the other)
    Right now, you only have the option to choose 1.

    A 10% cut? Maybe that suits smaller servers like yours, but when you are receiving 5000 a month like my server, it would be outrageous to be paying 500$ a month for buycraft alone...
    Then people could just make a new account once the month of premium ran out.

    taking a cut would only suit servers that receive under $60 per month (which I could see a possible for some servers, its $2 per day on average). If they receive more, they are paying more than they would at the current model. Why would that be better?

    Also, i do not like the way the Cumulative rank system is set out.
    Players like myself and many others set up their buycraft webstore as shown in the link below:
    http://auslavacraft.buycraft.net/category/14198

    They have a seperate category to Upgrade their current rank.
    if i am to use the Cumulative rank system now in the "Ranks" page (http://auslavacraft.buycraft.net/category/6429) that means that all players which have paid money to upgrade their rank in the "Upgrade" page, their moeny would not be cumulative towards the ranks page.

    Idk any other option to set up, but maybe somewhere where u can define the list of ranks from lowest to highest, and assign a package with that rank to sort out what the next cumulative package is.

    I would like to suggest some new features:
    1. Allow spaces to be entered in "variable" input boxes (eg. for custom item names)
    2. Sub-account option for email notifications (so other accounts can get payment notifications)
    3. Configurable pre/post commands which are executed before/after the package commands from a single transaction. So when a player buys multiple packages in a single purchase, Buycraft can send "start" commands, then the package commands, then "end" commands (in order). This way I could group the commands by looking for the the start/end.. hope that makes sense? Not sure if that's possible with the current way packages are handled, but just an idea.
    These extra features would make Buycraft even more awesome than it already is!!! :D

    Thanks.

    Couldn't you get sued by stating in the ad that it's 100% free and no fees then showing a feature which free users can only use 33 1/3%?

    Could you possibly allow a "Stay signed in option" on the login form, or at least increase the time out period. It gets quite annoying that I have to constantly re-login every time I leave the page alone for a while.

    Buycraft's services are 100% free. However, they also offer a different product, Buycraft premium, which costs money. This is perfectly legal.
     
  24. Will be improving that once we get our current feature set out the way :)

    Addon to the feature where you have to have bought a certain package.

    Making it a checkbox so i can check multiple boxes this would make it nice to make it so a colored nickname can only be bought if you purchased $100 rank, or two of the upgrades
     
  29. I would like to intergrate THESE as buttons on my buycraft panel, how would I do that?
