Upgrading to v1.4.7. caused problems when displaying points

I’m having the same issue.

I got around it with this:

global $mycred;
$user_ID = get_current_user_id();
$balance = $mycred->get_users_cred($user_ID);

and in your case, then:

<?php echo number_format($balance); ?>

I have no idea why it’s broken however. Maybe the author could shed some light.

Thank you for the response, but your solution is not using the function which should work. I think instead of a workaround like the one you have posted, it would be better to find out why the function itself is not working as it should, or if there is a problem with the code that I posted.

Is the plugin developer around?

Hey.

The issue lays in the mycred_get_users_cred function which is not taking into account a point type.

You could instead of using this function use:

$user_id = 1;

// you can also use mycred( 'mypointtype' ); for custom point types
$mycred = mycred();
$balance = $mycred->get_users_balance( $user_id );
echo 'Your balance is: ' . $mycred->format_creds( $balance );

Thank you. Will the mycred_get_users_cred function work as it should on the next update?

Yes or you can download a fresh copy of 1.4.7 and replace your current version as I have included fixes in this version as well. Simply download a new copy, disable myCRED in your admin area (DO NOT DELETE) and upload the new files via FTP to your plugin folder replacing your current copy. Once done enable myCRED.
