Added gifting functionality
It is now possible to gift items to other users. When you gift someone an item, they will receive a Private Message notifying them that they have a gift. The PM will have a button they can click to go view their gift. They can then decide if they want to accept or decline the gift. Accepting a gift will add it to their inventory to be used at their discretion. Declining a gift closes the gift and doesn't do anything else.

This new feature comes with 3 new pages to the shop:

• Creating a gift.
• Viewing a gift.
• A personal inventory page.

Notes:

• Not all items are giftable. If the item is not giftable it will not have a gift button next to the purchase button.
• When sending a gift you have the option to write an optional personal message.
• Gifts are only viewable by the user sending the gift, the user receiving the gift and admins.
• If the recipient declines a gift, the gifter will NOT be notified for privacy reasons.
• Gifts that have been declined will NOT refund the gifter at this time. If you send a gift, you will not receive your medits back if the recipient declines it. This could change in the future if it becomes a problem

You can check out the gifting system by going to the shop and clicking the gift button next top the purchase button on any item that is giftable.


Added VIP only item functionality
Items can now be marked as VIP only preventing non VIP users from seeing and purchasing the items. This gives us the ability to offer more bonuses to our vip members such as exclusive items and discounts in the future.


Added Personal Inventory To The Shop
The inventory has been moved from the User Control Panel where it was a bit difficult to access to the shop itself. The inventory is where purchased items go that are not set to be used immediately after purchase such as colored names and glowing names. Your inventory can be easily accessed by clicking a button in the shop, clicking the inventory link in the medit drop down menu at the top of the site or by bookmarking the link (shop.php?mode=inventory)


Misc

• Colored and glowing names are no longer destroyed on use. This means once you buy a colored or glowing name you keep it forever. This allows you to have multiple colored/glowing names that you can chose from whenever you want. Simply visit your inventory and click the use button to activate any color/glow you've bought.

sure i can accept gift :p

I hope you like name glows then.

... because I sent one to you.

thanks for the information

I've modified the shop to display a category by default. Now when you load shop.php instead of seeing an empty category and the categories menu you will the colored names category.

The original shop creator had a category page set as the default view when loading shop.php but I couldn't replicate that in a way that I liked. I kept thinking that kind of design was too old and inconvenient. So I chose to make the category menu visible on all pages for quicker/easier navigation.

I'll revisit the shop in the future and maybe come up with something else but for now this should do just fine.

Changes look great D.M, thanks for the info. Pretty cool that medit shop stuff can now be gifted .... hmmm ... let me see ... lol

Glowing names are great. It's so unfortunate that I won't ge be getting one anytime soon...

the more u stay active, posting you will can get there befor you know it. medits rewards daily logins alone.

Or the lotto.

yea and no. atm i am being realistic, on how they can earn medits fast to get to there end goal (a glowing name) hitting the lotto is not a sure thing and i wouldn't depend on it. posting and login in is a sure thing for medits
