NewPoints - 1.9.9 by Diogo Parrinha

From version 1.9.8 to 1.9.9:
* Fixed major bug in the newpoints_addpoints function which would cause malfunction if it was executed more than once per page.

From version 1.9.7 to 1.9.8:
* Plugins can now use the hook newpoints_xmlhttp.
* Forum Rules did not affect quick reply posting.
* Donation number_format warning on some PHP installations.
* Fixed 'newpoints_statistics' template problem.

From version 1.9.6 to 1.9.7:
* Fixed a high risk vulnerability (SQL injection).
* Fixed a bug in the newpoints_addpoints function which wouldn't add/remove points from a user if points had been added/removed in the same page already.

From version 1.9.5 to 1.9.6:
* Settings are now re-cached when installing/uninstalling/activating/deactivating NewPoints plugins.
* Group rules now affected points per visit and points for referral.

From version 1.9.4 to 1.9.5:
* Fixes minor bugs.
* Fixed an SQL error which appeared on the ACP.
* Settings are cached which reduces one query per page.
* Forum Rules and Group Rules are cached resulting in a performance increase.

From version 1.9.3 to 1.9.4:
* Fixed an incompatibility issue with MyBB 1.6.6.

From version 1.9.2 to 1.9.3:
* Fixed bug in the recounting process (related to the income rules).

From version 1.9.1 to 1.9.2:
* Fixed SQL error in Plugins List and Plugins Updates Check pages.

From version 1.9 to 1.9.1:
* Fixed problem regarding points count in quick edit and quick reply - would allow users to get unlimited points by changing the characters number.

From version 1.8 to 1.9:
* Fixed double </span> tag
* Points to View and Points to Post fields are no longer unsigned. (upgrade script must be run)
* Now adds NewPoints' settings to $mybb->settings instead of having duplicates in the settings table (for some reason they were being deleted)

From version 1.7 to 1.8:
* Fixed possible bug in uninstallation, if there was a plugin installed but the file was missing, it would "quit" the uninstallation leaving other plugins installed and possibly causing conflict if you install NewPoints and its plugins again.
* No longer displays setting groups when there are no settings for that plugin.
* Split main plugin file into multiple files - takes less time for the parser to read what's actually required.
* Fixed a small bug in the settings page related to a variable type.
* BLOG/TEXT has no longer default value (it actually can't have a default value, bad mistake of mine)
* Sets the collation of the tables on installation to what the user has as default, using MyBB's DB::build_create_table_collation() function.

From version 1.6 to 1.7:
* Changed TYPE=MyISAM to ENGINE=MyISAM
* Fixed bug in Donations author.

From version 1.5 to 1.6:
* Compatible with MyBB 1.6.

From version 1.4 to 1.5:
* Improvements have been made - thanks zinga.
* Now plugins can use the Archive's hooks, however the archive_start hook cannot be used - use newpoints_archive_start instead.
* The bank plugin no longer comes with NewPoints, it must be downloaded from the website separately.
* Fixed a problem with the latest donations date.

* Changed the way points are formatted.
* Fixed a few other minor bugs.

From version 1.2 to 1.3:
* Fixed two minor bugs.

* Fixed a few bugs.

From version 1.0 to 1.1:
* Fixed a bug in forum rules
* Fixed a typo in a hook name
* Added a new hook "newpoints_admin_load" as plugins can't hook to "admin_load" because they're loaded after that hook is called.
* Comes with Shop 1.0 plugin
* Increased performance speed by running most of the income queries on shut down and by allowing modules to add points on shut down.
* Fixed a bug in forum and group rules that would edit all rules by editing a single one
* Added donate reason (optional)
* Added points per referral
