[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.

    So does this will also have in-game buy like items inside the game, so like I get 64 iron ingots for $2 for example, and how you do the paypal thing?

    Hello. I am wondering, is there currently a way to use BuyCraft not only for donations and real money purchases, but also to sell items to players for in-game cash? I know you can sell free items to the players but I would like to be able to charge in-game money for those free items. My goal is to use BuyCraft as an all-in-one on my website - both taking donations and using it as my "player shop". Possible?

    Yes, that's exactly what Buycraft is for. You can add commands to give out the items. For example:
    /give {name} IRON_INGOT 64
    That will give the player 64 iron ingots when hey donate (not sure if I got the spelling right).
    The guides here will help you learn the basics of how Buycraft works. I recommend having a look at the.

    I would quite like an easy way to change how regularly the server checks to pending commands. I'd quite like it to check every minute rather then every 5. The config files pretty much have nothing in.

    This is not the goal of the Buycraft-plugin.
    Making your server check donations more often puts more stress on the Buycraft servers. If you really need to force a check you can always use the command /buycraft forcecheck

    Wow. Rude. Could have just answered my question with a simple "no." Guess I won't be subscribing to use your services. Although if you add this feature later (doesn't have to be your "goal") then maybe I'll consider spending money on this. I'm handling my donations just fine without it. Adding in-game money transactions as an extra feature would sell me. Please keep that in mind...

    boushwa I personally would think only putting "No." would be more rude than what he put. There are hundreds of other plugins that do what you are asking for. For example, ChestShop, Essentials, BetterShop, ShopLikeMe, etc. Adding that would add unnecessary bloat to the plugin that most of its users don't even need.

    Sorry if you feel insulted, but I don't have the right to say no, as I'm not the creator of buycraft. I was just saying this wasn't really what this plugins is aimed at, so it's probably not going to be added.

  12. A quick note on our current plans for new features:
    When I personally started developing Buycraft back in August 2011 I had no idea that it was going to take off and become one of the most used plugins with over 90% market share.
    Due to not understanding the potential of the product, and also my lack of knowledge back in 2011, Buycraft was developed in a prototype manner and unfortunately was never moved from this stage.We're now a team of people working on the site and things couldn't be better.
    The reason we've not released any updates in the last 2-3 weeks is due to our current revamp of the entire system and how everything is handled - we're basically starting from scratch and working our way up using new techniques that will allow us to add some awesome features in the future. In the next few weeks we will start to move over to this new system, and we can't wait to work with the new codebase.
    Even though we may not be pumping out features like we did from November 2012->March 2013, the work we are doing is for the long run and will assist us in achieving what we want to do with Buycraft over the next year.
    I'd like to say thank you for the immense support, It's amazing to have an awesome community of server owners using our product.

    One thing that needs to be thought of is directpay. I use this in this manor on my site: http://minecustoms.com/pages/buy/

    Firstly, directpay doesn't verify that the player has been on my server before, as the normal store does. Secondly, directpay doesn't work for cumulative ranks even though it is set.

    Finally, there should be a way to tell the player how much they have currently payed through directpay code (Enter your username to find how much you have donated: (Username)).
     
  14. We actually are moving away from Directpay soon, it will all be done from a single call with an optional param of "sendToGateway".

    Think you can add Ideal? Quite a few of my users are either idiot's or lazy so they don't know how to set up stuff. If you add Ideal, me and others can make use of that!

    For embedding the entire Buycraft page, I suggest using an iframe.

    Hello! I'm willing to help translate the webstore to spanish. I run a server in spanish and well, players tend to get confused. I'm a native spanish speaker and i would do it for free If you guys gave me the chance. Please send me a pm.

    Can someone please answer to this? It's the second time I post it :)
     
  24. A major feature of the next update is the option for translations on the webstore, so once we have them released we'll get in touch with you.

    Hi lmc, I have a question:

    I have upgrade packets on my buycraft ;) However you made the option... require package, that is wonderful for this...

    However I cannot make something like.... require packages.. I would like to make it so that... it would be
    require THIS package OR THIS package OR THIs package OR THIS package, so it would be like a list of packets, instead of a single package required... This way I can do upgrade easier.

    Because the current problem:

    Player buys Iron packet -> Upgrades to gold packet. ;) = Perfect. Gold upgrade requires the Iron packet.
    However.... Player wants to upgrade to Diamond Package....

    Diamond Upgrade Package -> Checks for Gold Package. -> Gold Package is not there, because he bought an upgrade to GOLD package... And not a full Gold package -> User cannot upgrade to Diamond Package, can only buy a complete new Diamond package.

    You get whats my problem? Im sure other servers have this issue as well

    Hello i have some suggestion

    when you join the server can can werite something the get a list of pack that you can try 1 time only example vip pack in 12/24 hours. I think you can sell more pack if you have try one before :)

    and when you buying a package you get some points that u can use to get things cheaper

    i dont know if its possible to fix but its only a suggestion :)

    Currently it is possible to redeem more than available amount of discounts. ( more than redeemable amount )

    Example there is 1 left and 2 people try to redeem it at the same time.
    They both enter the coupon when it is still available.

    One goes to coffee beforehand, the other confirms. Coupon is checked as expired, the first one get's the discount.
    The one coming back from coffee clicks continue and confirms and get's the discount even when it says expired on my end.

    This example I set up, because I did a small giveaway with "FREE" coupons and wanted to give away 5 items. Many rushed at once to get the free pack. 7 People got it instead of 5 as expected.

    So there should be a second check somewhere there whether the coupon code is still available just before going to paypal / clicking continue.

    So, after my paypal being hacked a few weeks back i reversed all the payments the hacker made,
    now when i want to donate to a server it gives me the following error:
    You have been banned from purchasing due to opening too many chargebacks over the Buycraft network.

    So if i could get this sorted or get back to me
    so i can donate that would be great
    Thanks!
