Profile Update - MySpace Profile Rewrite

[Hex_legend]

What does this do?
This will change your profile page to have a myspace style layout.

This creates new templates so should not alter anything.

This also uses standard css classes so should fit into any skin.

It should squeeze down to 800x600 (just) and stops expanding around 1000 wide so it doesn't look too warped.

Version History
0.1 - Initial test/pre-release version


Product Details
4 plugins
5 templates (all new)
3 file uploads

Installation instructions
1- Upload .htaccess to forum root dir
2 - Upload the 2 images to /images folder
3 - Install product
4 - Create profile fields (as below)
5 - Register at Shrinktheweb (http://www.shrinktheweb.com/index.php?view=join) and note the 2 unique access keys that you get.
6 - Edit MEMBERINFO_new

look for:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>

<td class="tcat" width="100%">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('my_table7')"><img id="collapseimg_my_table7" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_my_table7].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Homepage
</div>
</td>
<tbody id="collapseobj_my_table7" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_my_table7]">
</tr>

<tr>

<td class="alt1" width="100%">
<div class="smallfont">
<if condition="$prepared['homepage']">
<fieldset>
<legend>$vbphrase[home_page] of $prepared[username] (<a href="$prepared[homepage]" target="_blank">$prepared[homepage]</a>)</legend>
<div class="fieldset_padding floatcontainer">
<ul class="list_no_decoration">
<a href="$prepared[homepage]" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.shrinktheweb.com/xino.php?embed=1&u=0c386&STWAccessKeyId=5edc8c987f37d0f&Size=lg&Url=$prepared[homepage]" width="175" height="125" align="left" border="0" style="border: 3px double #e3e3e3" alt="$prepared[username]'s Homepage" /></a>
</ul></div></fieldset>
<else />
$prepared[username] has no homepage set in <if condition="$userinfo[field12]==Male">his <else /> her </if> profile settings</if>


</div>
</td>

</tr>
</table>

<br />

Replace 0c386&STW with your secret access key
Replace 5edc8c987f37d0f with your access key


Create profile fields as below

Quote - Field 5
City - Field 6
Star Sign - Field 7
Height - Field 8
Ethnicity - Field 9
Smoker - Field 10
Body Type - Field 11
Gender - Field 12
Real Name - Field 13
Country - Field 14
About Me - Field 15
Who I'd like to meet - Field 16
First Date - Field 18
Custom Block Title - Field 19
Custom Block Content - Field 20
Marital Status - Field 21
Looking For - Field 22

If you choose to not use any of the profile fields, or you put them in different field ID's, then you will have to edit the memberinfo_new template accordingly as it is currently assigned to those ID's.

Additional Information

For this modification to work correctly, there are a few other modifications that have to be installed, otherwise there will be dead links in the profile.

If you do not have the VBlog installed (the official VBulletin version) then there are some template edits you need to do to remove the "calls" for the blog.

Open Memberinfo_new
Look for:


<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>

<td class="tcat" width="100%">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('my_table6')"><img id="collapseimg_my_table6" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_my_table6].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Blogs
</div>
</td>
<tbody id="collapseobj_my_table6" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_my_table6]">
</tr>

<tr>

<td class="alt1" width="100%">
<div class="smallfont">
[<a href="http://www.thesocialmeet.com/blog_subscription.php?do=subscribe&u=$userinfo[userid]">Subscribe to $userinfo[username]'s blog</a>]
<br />

[<a href="http://www.thesocialmeet.com/blog.php?u=$userinfo[userid]">View All $userinfo[username]'s Blog Entries</a>]

<if condition="$post['entries'] > 0">
$vbphrase: <a href="blog.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[entries]</a>
</if>


</div>
</td>

</tr>
</table>

<br />


Remove.

In memberinfo_block_mainprofile, look for:

| <a href="blog.php?u=$userinfo[userid]">Blog</a>


Remove. That's it. No more template edits.

Suggestions:

Phrase it!
Take out all the references to http://www.thesocialmeet.com :P
And make it valid XHTML

Nice add on ;)

Hex_Legend - can you now confirm if a facebook version is on the way? :)

[Hex_legend]

I will be phrasing it and taking all references out in version 1.2 which should be done in the next few days - anything else you want to see?

Megatr0n, I will now be working on the facebook clone as I now have full time which I can put into it :)

[Shazz]

Looks alot cleaner and nicer then the old 3.5 myspace look :)
Great job.

[Hex_legend]

Is there any other features you guys would like to see?

[Boosted Panda]

Just more facebook like would be awesome!

[Shazz]

Just more facebook like would be awesome!

maybe 2 versions, one more changed to be facebook like and this one kept the same for the myspace lovers.

[smnoel]

An option to switch between both for the end user would be great!

[Hex_legend]

Any coders want to do some co-authoring with me? :P

Feel free to add me on MSN and we can work on it :)

[Lizard King]

Do not remove the copyright notice. If you would like to remove the copyright notice, please send a payment for ?5 to admin@vampyrescene.com. Remember to include your site URL so that we know who has purchased our branding free option

lol you are adding copyright notice for this and request people to pay :) You are funny man

[Hex_legend]

Well to be fair, my hard work has gone into this and I need some credit for it.. At the end of the day, all other mods have copyright notice.

I didnt just come up with this in 1 day.. This took time and effort.

[abrecher]

An option to switch between both for the end user would be great!

That's a great idea!

[Hex_legend]

An option to switch between both for the end user would be great!

I shall see what I can come up with.

[Megatr0n]

That's a great idea!

I second that.

[xxalexkimxx]

Thank you very much for the mod....looks great.

[Hex_legend]

Thank you for the compliments

The facebook one is already under way.

[Rich]

I hate to say it, but I agree with Lizard King. This uses third party scripts, built in vbulletin functions, and you want users to leave a copyright or pay to have one removed for a template edit? While you may have put time into this, it doesn't warrant a copyright or a fee to remove it. Asking for that is simply a lame attempt at advertising and making a few bucks.

I would suggest you remove that aspect, because most people are simply going to avoid this mod or remove the copyright anyways. After all, there is absolutely no way you would ever know if they made their own or used yours.

[Javi_gray]

Would you be able to use myspace layouts with this? Like Overlays?

[logicuk]

HTML in profiles is very bad easy to hack forums that way

[Hex_legend]

html in profiles is set in usergroup options. you can choose which users can use html in profiles and which html tags they can use.

[Declan127]

I like it, Thanks!

nice layout christian8a.

[callumbush]

here's another site you can potentially get some ideas from?

http://bodyspace.bodybuilding.com/UBkid/

p.s. thats not me!

[callumbush]

why is this mod getting a 1 star rating when the previous version had a 5 star rating?

[OsideRida06]

Because we have some haters. Just because the designer of this mod wants to leave a copyright. I think it is well deserved myself. It is a very nicely done mod. Who cares if it uses built in vb features. It still takes a sense of design in order to create this.

[Boosted Panda]

WHOA CHRISTIAN RELEASE TAHT CODE!!!! :p

Very cool, can this get released? Or is the facebook version that was already released?

I cant get this to format correctly

[DawnsWebDesigns]

me either.

[OsideRida06]

What version of vBulletin do you guys have? 3.7 right?

[Hex_legend]

I am looking into why you can't get it to install properly - as you can see, it works fine on the demo and there have been no seperate edits.

I am using 3.7.2 but it has been tested on all versions of 3.7

Hi Christian,

Is that your own code? Is it open to share? :p

[christian8a]

Never intended to hijack this mod, sorry :( I edited my first post.
For questions about this "facebook" mod just PM me so we leave this area for MySpace profiles only :up:

[OsideRida06]

me either.

I actually had the same exact troubles when I installed mine the first time. For me it was because I had the other myspace profile update installed. Once I un-installed it, it worked perfectly. So if you have installed the other hack, ( the one this originated from) then un-install it and re-install this new one.

I hope this helps.

[pooker]

can they have music on there profile like myspace?

[OsideRida06]

Yes, that all just depends on your settings for the html or bbCode in your profile. If you enable one or the other, then they can embed them in one of there profile fields just like on myspace.

[Hex_legend]

Found a slight error which I have fixed.

In memberinfo_block_mainurl

look for:


<div class="alt1 block_row">

<dl class="list_no_decoration" id="additional_contact_details">
<dt class="shade">My SocialMeet URL:</dt>
<dd><a href="http://www.thesocialmeet.com/$prepared[username]">http://www.thesocialmeet.com/$prepared[username]</a></dd>

</div>


Change to:


<div class="alt1 block_row">

<dl class="list_no_decoration" id="additional_contact_details">
<dt class="shade">My SocialMeet URL:</dt>
<dd><a href="http://www.thesocialmeet.com/$userinfo[username]">http://www.thesocialmeet.com/$userinfo[username]</a></dd>

</div>


Obviously, change MySocialMeet to the name of your website.

This was not pulling the username details / link if you had a html markup installed in the usergroup options.

Fixed.

[Koushukei]

Does not work for me, I get this:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/07/2.png

Only half showing, no contact buttons showing (Yes it's in correct folder)

[bvbuk]

does this use images for the header bars, or is it colours only?

just i would like it to match my forum.

[Boosted Panda]

Same problem I am having.

[Hex_legend]

does this use images for the header bars, or is it colours only?

just i would like it to match my forum.

I'm editing the header CSS to match the rest of the user css, so they can choose their whole look for the site, not just the profiles.

I am looking into all the problems you are having guys and will sort out a fix for ver 1.2 release :)

[OsideRida06]

Yelp that is the same problem I was having. The only thing I do not like about this is, that you coded most of this into the Memberinfo_New. Instead of having seperate templates for each section. Like the You are in this members extended network, the blog stuff, and a couple of other things I cannot remember right off hand.

[FlyBoy73]

I was using 3.7.2 & had no other such hack installed. But I did have post a youtube video in your profile. My mod list is here: http://thepoorhouseforum.com/showthread.php?t=22 & a couple are related to the profile therefore may conflict with this one?

[OsideRida06]

That is what I am thinking. You do not have to uninstall them. You can always just disable them from the manage products part of the adminCP. Re-install this hack and test it. If it still does not work then you can cross that off the drawing board, and enable the old mods again. Let me know what happens, alright?

[traxxadd]

I installed and this is what my profiles look like now please help http://www.traxxaddicts.com/forums/member.php?u=1

[Boosted Panda]

Yeah it just doesn't work for me, I guess Ill have to hold off.

[tuaguild]

i am going to uninstall this i think it needs more development to work with any style. I see alot of people having layout issues and i am myself on my own PB-WoW Style so i will keep my regular one for my style and maybe i can get this working later on plus it seems he doesnt check this thread very often

Seems so.

[Hex_legend]

I do check the thread.

I am still looking into a reason why this is doing it. It seems to be conflicting with the other MySpace hack by psylanced.

Please remove that totally, then re-import my product.

[pooker]

I was gonna install this but I registered at your website and tried to verify and your login and password details never worked even after I reset it a few times...... so I couldn't get the key and didn't bother...

[Hex_legend]

I have been having the same issues on my site as some other people. It's sending out an invalid e-mail link.

E-Mail validation has now been turned off, so it will activate you immediately

[lilbill0005]

This is an alright mod, but, let's get one thing straight:

You're using someone else's script. You had your little minion or whatever he is go in the thread of the original script and direct it to this thread, saying production had been moved, like you guys weren't a third party. Not only did you hijack their thread, but, you're trying to include a copyright notice you have to pay to get rid of? For what? Changing a few scripts someone else made for a forum software someone else made? What did you do again? Everything isn't even in proper XHTML.

I'm not trying to be mean, but, someone needs to tell you that what you're doing is wrong, and selfish, and I'm fairly sure it's illegal, too. If someone gives you free code, you better have written permission to modify the code and distribute it as such without end users being able to use the code without attribution. Are you even using a Creative Commons License, or do you think you can just demand we keep a copyright notice in our footers? You should include an option in the admincp to remove or keep the copyright and ask politely that they keep it, if you're THAT adamant on keeping the thing in there.

PLENTY of users have put in thousands of times more work than you have and don't try forcing a copyright on you. They recognize, in most cases, that they don't deserve one. vBSEO has a copyright, but, they allege that they can increase your forums traffic and ranking in popular search engines however many times in however long. You have a profile modification.

I'm sorry, but, get over yourself.

And mods, I'm not trying to flame him, but, I GROSSLY disagree with his stance on this, and I used proper English and no obscenities, so, please don't delete this.

Someone else should make a mod that does everything right and it's full of itself. If no one does soon, I will.

[v12kid]

seems the OP is banned? can someone fix the bugs and release this plz :)

plz plz

[Gamelobby]

oh well.. looks like its the Facebook code or nothing. :(

I added you to my msn, and i am gonna need your help getting this mod correct if you don;t mind, i can't get it to work, the whole right column does not appear, and when i try to change fieldx info, most of them are not in the template. For example visit HERE (http://www.scifyrez.com/Replicators) and see what i mean. I would be most obliged if you can help me get this right, but some of it could be due to newer stuff, like i just installed the new vbulletin blog, which may be why the blog info doesn;t appear on the right side.

[Replicators]

God this is complicated, alot of $userinfo stuff won't work, like i would really like to have $userinfo[lastvisit] to work, but all it does is give a whole bunch of numbers. The right side won;t show in firefox, and in IE they are squished blocks. <help>

[killa seven]

Yo, when i add the .htaccess file in place of my other one, it ruins my entire forum...is there a way around this?

[Hex_legend]

God this is complicated, alot of $userinfo stuff won't work, like i would really like to have $userinfo[lastvisit] to work, but all it does is give a whole bunch of numbers. The right side won;t show in firefox, and in IE they are squished blocks. <help>

Try $bbuserinfo[lastvisit]

[Replicators]

Try $bbuserinfo[lastvisit]

Yea, that does the samething really, just gives numbers that don't make sense.

[TandyServices]

God this is complicated, alot of $userinfo stuff won't work, like i would really like to have $userinfo[lastvisit] to work, but all it does is give a whole bunch of numbers. The right side won;t show in firefox, and in IE they are squished blocks. <help>

Yea well, same here.. But no sollution in the posts here.. I saw your link to your profile in an earlier post and it looks pretty good now. So if someone would post here how to solve this, it would be a great help. Thanks

Thanks again for all your hard work!
