Released with permission from the author of this modification (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=196587).

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2015/08/1.jpg

This is a re-write of his original code, adapted for myself to add FaceBook & MySpace fields to my users profile & postbit's without the usage of dirty profile fields. This mod is unsupported, but if I have the time I'll try to help.

What you must do to get this working is modify values under Social Networking in the respective FaceBook or MySpace varibles:

FaceBook: You would put in your profile id, so if your FaceBook profile link is..

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1638992840&ref=profile
You would paste 1638992840 in the UserCP on your forum.

MySpace: Similar to FaceBook, you would put in your profile id, so if your MySpace profile link is..

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=236497885
You would paste 236497885 in the UserCP on your forum.

Changes:

1.0: Initial release to public
1.1: Added ability to click to MySpace/FaceBook profiles within user's profile
1.2: Bugs fixed & "Connect With $username Using.." added!

Error in XML - identifies the product in Admin CP | vBulletin Options as:

Gamefields Icons Settings

Need to edit line 135:

Find:

<phpcode><![CDATA[$only['gamefields'] = 'Game Fields Icons';]]></phpcode>

I changed this for now to:

<phpcode><![CDATA[$only['gamefields'] = 'Social Networking - MySpace and FaceBook';]]></phpcode>

just to avoid confusion.

Also changed line 172 to read:

<phrase name="settinggroup_sfields_icons_group" date="0" username="zefyx" version="1.1"><![CDATA[Social Networking - MySpace and FaceBook]]></phrase>

Thanks, that's odd; I'm not sure how that happened, I did have it changed on my code here & somewhere the v1.1 zip disappeared too! Anyhow, I've re-uploaded it.

Thanks!

I tried this on my site and had issues. vBulletin 3.8.2

The ID field label was duplicated in the profile in the profile page but only had one text box.
The link did not show up in the postbit.

Ended up uninstalling :(

Cool hack, thanks

Would be nice to have FB&MySpace clickable only for logged in members
or
Guest will be able to click but with error msg that he needs to log in or register

how we can add youtube accounts here, is it possible?

I installed this today on my site and it put 2 tables on the profile edit page one in the Instant message fields and then the one in the additional info. Also the one in the IM table it shifts all my extra IM networks outside of the IM table altogether.

Works great, but however when launching the window to go to a users myspace or facebook account it won't show the toolbars in Internet Explorer. Any one know how I can fix that? Thank you.

I also would like to know how to make this so that only members of certain User Groups would be able to see this, thanks

When you log in, click "Profile" -> "My Profile" and the URL will be the one you're looking for. (I too have the vanity URL but it works this way)

2: Import the XML file into your Product manager.
3: Finished.

Seems like there might be some profile fields or something that need to be made or something..??

Installed and then Uninstalled until it's a little friendlier. Users of things like this won't use it do the pain required to get the ID number instead of a simple copy and past of the profile URL.

I am currently working on adding you tube and twitter to this mod.
As I am not the original author I will post changes I make to the mod in here.
The changes are for anyone to try and the author to add to his/her mod freely.

Both of the existing site fixes are easy, the urls are merely different.

Face Book Fix
:
Look for:
<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/profile.php?id=$userinfo[sn_facebook]&ref=profile'); return false;">

Change it to read:
<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.facebook.com/$userinfo[sn_facebook]'); return false;">

-----

MySpace Fix
:
Look for:
<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=$userinfo[sn_myspace]'); return false;">
Change it to read:
<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.myspace.com/$userinfo[sn_myspace]'); return false;">

Attached is an update to this product. I contacted the original author and received no response so I went ahead and made it do what I wanted, which happens to be what many of you want.

Changes:
Added Twitter and YouTube
Updated field types in database to varchar(25)
Changed code to test for each existing table and either make it if it did not exist or alter it to the new type.
Fixed the broken links for MySpace and Facebook in post bits.
Added links to profile.
Changed wording on profile input fields.
Changed image type for icons to PNGs

Things you will need to do:
I provided you some free for use icons, I did not make them I just found them.
Put them in /images/misc with an ftp client.

You should be able to install this as an upgrade over the previous version so look as you allow it to over write. As I said before I did this for me, well honestly one of my members but hey if it helps you out too then cool beans.

I am now focusing on getting my sites tools up to vB4 so I do not have much in the way of time to add new features to this mod and the original author appears to have disappeared. In truth if a person had a moderate understanding of coding one could easily update the mod to add other sites. If you were to read the install file code and work methodically you could do it. Think copy, paste and change values.
