Hey just an "idea" to toss out there.... I made a group called "Raffle Winner," so that winners from raffles can have a special banner for a bit. I thought it may be neat if raffles could be incorporated into the user group promotions feature so that XF would automatically assign the promotion when/if someone won a raffle? Don't know how complex that is or if anyone would even like it, but I thought I'd just toss it out there.
That's a lot more involved on so many different levels than it appears on the surface. There are many situations where a winner may be declared invalid, a raffle re-run for various reasons, etc.. I don't see this being added.

RRick7C2 While you were downloading the raffle system, I was trying to sneak a minor change into the download before someone downloaded it. The one you got does not check the "Winner" PC sender name but does check the error PC ones. The one on the server now does check the "Winner" PC sender name too. So, you may want to re-download the raffle system.
Hey Snog I just did a new raffle under XF2.1 and I added a widget so it would show up on various parts throughout the site; but it is not displaying anywhere i have placed it with the widget. People can only see it under the actual active raffle navigation heading which is a huge challenge. What can I research to try and correct this or could I perhaps enlist your help, please?

I do believe that DB Credits allows users to purchase credits using PayPal. You would need to ask DragonByte if that's possible. And if it is, then you just set the raffle to use DB Credits as the credit system.
Suggestion: make it possible to add raffles without accessing the admin panel. We have users that offer their services via the raffle, imo it would be better if we could give then permission to do so, and not need to contact staff every time.

Option to included the uploaded raffle photo in the announcement thread.
Be able to set the thread prefix for the announcement thread.
Would be nice to be able to do everything from the Admin CP. After adding a raffle, I have to go the announcement thread, edit title to select the thread prefix, then have to edit the first post and add an image.
Doesn't sound like a lot if you occasionally have a raffle but we have them often. Sometimes I list a couple at one time.
