/forums/affiliates.php Unknown Location /forums/affiliates.php

Is it possible to edit the who's online bit to make it say something more along the lines of:

"Viewing Affiliates"

instead of showing something like this?

Unknown Location
/forums/affiliates.php


Thanks! :D

make a plugin on the hook: online_location_unknown with the following php code:

if (strpos($userinfo['location'], 'forums/affiliates.php') === true)
{
$userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing Affiliates';
$handled = true;
}


*should* work...

[DarkGizmo]

Still says unknown location..... Hmm....

[BirdOPrey5]

try without the forums/... just:

if (strpos($userinfo['location'], 'affiliates.php') === true)
{
$userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing Affiliates';
$handled = true;
}

[DarkGizmo]

Nope, still nothing :-\

[BirdOPrey5]

but anyway here is an article that explains another way of doing it:

if (strpos($userinfo['location'], 'affiliates.php') === true)
{
$userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing Affiliates';
$handled = true;
}


Does "=== true" work for you? It seems like since strpos() returns an int or else false, it would never be true.

[DarkGizmo]

Any ideas what would work then, kh99?

[kh99]

I guess you could try changing "=== true" to "!== false".

[DarkGizmo]

That did it :D How could I make it a link to the page though? :D

[BirdOPrey5]

kh99 to the rescue again... Yeah mine did say !== false but I forgot why it said that and not === true, which I figured was logically equivalent. :o

To add a link add an extra line to the plugin right above $handled = true;:

$userinfo['where'] = "<a href=\"affiliates.php?{$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q']}\">Affiliates</a>";
}

At least according to that article.

Thanks. That did it :)
