Facebook button in postbit

[SLY LS1]

I couldn't find this anywhere else so I made my own using Bratz-Designs Myspace mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=142290&highlight=facebook&page=2) as a start.

1. Make a profile field

In Admin CP go to - User Profile Fields - Add New User Profile Field
Profile field type = Single-line text box
Title: Facebook Profile
Description: Type your Facebook ID number
You can leave the rest to default

**Note down the number of the field! Example: field16. You need to replace the fieldX in the next code with the number!**

2. Template changes - In postbit_lecacy & Postbit

Find:
<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon]

After add:
<!-- Facebook display start -->
<if condition="$post[fieldX]"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=$post[fieldX]" alt="View my Facebook" target="_blank">
<img src="images/misc/im_facebook.gif" border="0"></a>
</if><!-- Facebook display end -->

3. Button Upload

Upload the attached image to your: /images/misc folder!


4. Add link in members profile "Contact Info: section

Edit template - "memberinfo"

Find:
<if condition="$show['homepage']">
<tr>
<td>
$vbphrase[home_page]:<br />
<a href="$userinfo[homepage]" target="_blank" dir="ltr">$userinfo[homepage]</a>
</td>
</tr>
</if>

Above add:
<if condition="$userinfo[fieldX]">
<tr>
<td>
Facebook Profile:<br />
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=$userinfo[fieldX]" target="_blank">Check out my Facebook page</a>
</td>
</tr>
</if>

Dont forget to change the X to your field number.

No the [fieldX] should be the number of the field you created, NOT your facebook number, if you go to userfields in your Admin control panel and look for the field you named "Facebook Profile" it will have a field number next to it, you need to change all the X to that field number.

Check through the instructions from the start again and you will work it out.

Your facebook number gets added in your UserCP.

Hope this helps

That might be to your liking as well, it also displays the MySpace icon.

Managed to get it working.

<if condition="$post[icqicon] OR $post[aimicon] OR $post[msnicon] OR $post[yahooicon] OR $post[skypeicon] OR $post[field6]"><div class="nzbpostbit">$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon] <!-- Facebook display start -->
<if condition="$post[field6]"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=$post[field6]" alt="View my Facebook" target="_blank">
<img src="images/misc/facebook.gif" border="0"></a></div>
</if><!-- Facebook display end --> </div></if>
</div>

I had to add the bolded bit into the code, otherwise the facebook icon would only show if someone had MSN/ICQ etc

Shouldn't it show a link there? It only show IDs...

The link shows on the right hand side of the page on the member profile and also in the postbit.

thats already in your code

<if condition="$post[icqicon] OR $post[aimicon] OR $post[msnicon] OR $post[yahooicon] OR $post[skypeicon] OR $post[field6]"> <div class="nzbpostbit">$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon] <!-- Facebook display start -->
<if condition="$post[field6]"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=$post[field6]" alt="View my Facebook" target="_blank">
<img src="images/misc/facebook.gif" border="0"></a></div>
</if><!-- Facebook display end --> </div></if>
</div>

The facebook icon will only show if you have it filled in on your profile.

The facebook icon will only show if you have it filled in on your profile.

powerful_rogue is right, your not realizing what he is saying. If a user doesn't have an MSN or Yahoo listed in their profile, then the FaceBook button WILL NOT SHOW UP regardless if they have any info listed in their facebook field or not. So let's say a user has listed info in their facebook field but they haven't listed a yahoo or msn etc, then the facebook button will not show up.

You have to add OR $post[field6] after $post[skypeicon] so it looks like this $post[skypeicon] OR $post[field6]
