Okay, I have absolutely no clue what section to put this in, so I just guessed. The point of this thread is that I wanted to know how you could get a points/cash/credits system for a website. Like how armor games has. I know a little bit of html. I've been searching on google, yahoo, etc. for weeks trying to find it, but no luck. Does anyone know how to add it to your website? I already have a counter for how many posts you make in the forums, but how do you add a points/credits system to the website, not just the forums?

By the way, if you're confused, points system meaning a system like AP.

I don't have much programming experience but I would guess that you would just have to have a simple counting system implemented into your site.

Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

I don't know.. Either you delve into the intricacies of programming, you hire someone to help you or you go look for a site provider other than Webs.

I have a domain name also: www.entertainmenttothemax.com as well as the webs.com version, so I can go into the "root source" of the website and tease with the html, which is always fun.

I found one thing, but it just was forum post counters, which I already have.

Yeah. Adding points systems, forums, profiles, and other things requires extensive knowledge in PHP and MySQL coding.

I know a little bit of html

Your gonna need to know alot more than a little bit.

What I'm saying is that if there's some sort of code that you can put in. For example. Say you want to add a like/dislike box to your website. You just insert this:
<a class="LikeBotButton">
<script src="http://i.likebot.com/button.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</a>
and it magically gives u a like/dislike button. But what about something like reputation? Where people could rate up and down someone's profile page? And then it would show the highest rated people first on the member list.

Hmhm, that could be handy.

That's what I am talking about the whole PHP and MySQL thing. Webs, gives you ready to use forums, profiles, apps, and other great things. If you wanted the whole reputation thing, then you have to create your whole website from the ground up.

Now, I don't know if there are any tutorials on how to do this or not.

Aha, I use that like/dislike button for a lot of my posts. Also, when you upgrade to premium on webs, you get a custom html button, where u can insert google ads (which I have done), like/dislike buttons, etc. By the way, do you have a website?

Well, teasing the html's are fun, but will be hard to. Probably take some time.

@Noobslayer. It has two links. www.entertainmenttothemax.com or http://2014631.webs.com.

Like I said before, if there's some sort of embed code that I can put in the root html of the site, that would be great.
