Hi, I'm having what should be a simple issue. I have fully setup Hikaserial to work as gift vouchers using user points, everything is good but when the person buying the voucher pays for it they get points to the value of the voucher. In my case $1 = 1 point. How do you stop the buyer from getting the points also?

Hi,

From what I understand, you're saying that for the "voucher" product sales, you don't want the customer to gain points like for the other products of the shop.
Is that correct ?
In that case, you want to edit your user points plugin in the System>Plugins menu of HikaShop and use the "Product categories" setting to restrict the points gain to only the categories you want.

I see the error of my ways, I don't need to use the "HikaShop User Points plugin" for my purposes as I realise that gives points for someone who purchases an item from the store. I am only using points as a voucher system where i only want the person recieving the voucher code to pick up the points and not the person buying the voucher. Anyway, I turned off the "HikaShop User Points plugin" and everything seems to be working fine, the purchased is no longer getting points.

Hello,

Thus I think you want to use HikaSerial in order to generate your "gift cards" with the "point generator" for the serial generator ; and the "point consumer" to allow users to consume a serial and earn the points attached to them.
