Shop System Added!

[CM30]

Well, it's finally here! As promised back when XenForo was upgraded, a new shop system has been added to the forums.

But this isn't any old shop system. Oh no, it's significantly more advanced than the previous one we had here at Wario Forums.

That's because not only can you buy fancy items to display in your postbit and profile, but you can also:

• Buy items that change your forum experience, like giving you a new username style, a new post style, a post background or MP3 player in your profile
• Set up your own shops and sell your own virtual items. You then get coins for every purchase people make there.
• Trade items to other people on the forums.
• Attempt to steal items from other users
• Put coins in the bank to protect them from being stolen (and withdraw them later)

Plus various other things we haven't added and may add in future, like a lottery for virtual forum items and coins.

So yeah, have fun. Just try not to destroy the whole forum with the system, okay?

You mean like that time glowsquid posted the Bee movie script?

I dig that WARIO Forums has a "steal" option

I checked out the shop tab and was awaiting this thread, i think i got a hint of how hipsters feel.

How do we use the new items?

How do we use the new items?

Go to Shop, then Inventory, then click the Configure link for the item you wish to use.

 

[CM30]

Okay, new items have been added, and a few tweaks made.

@CM30 Why can't I sell my items at the item shop butt town?

Go to Shop, then Inventory, then Sell Back.

Go to Shop, then Inventory, then Sell Back.

I think he means items other users have made themselves since for some reason you left that feature in.

 

[CM30]

Pretty sure if a user creates a custom item for their shop, and another user buys it, the latter will still be able to sell it back and the former might end up losing coins from it.

Thanks for clarifying it yes just wanted to ask how a member could make a shop with items they can sell themselves.

More over shouldn't the CD background music item be a wario land 4 CD instead of a chest?

Yeah, the CD probably should be.

As for creating items, you have to go to Item Management in the Shop menu.

Did you purposely make it so that non-cosmetic items also show up under our profiles?

 

[Tiger21820]

Are points used yet? If so, how are they earned?

Also, do you plan on adding the lottery?

 

[wariolandgoldpiramid]

Very much enjoying the shop

 

[ShyGuyXXL]

I wish I still had my little golden bear...


So... does this mean I may log on to the forum one day and find all my stuff having been stolen?

Hang on, why is the Coin Amount shown twice now?

Probably a template bug. Will fix soon.
