View Full Version : Secret Admirer / Match Maker

So this hack means that profiles have a 'secret Admirer button' on their profiles.

Users can click to 'admire' another user which remains anonymous unless that user also clicks their 'admirer' button. At which point, a pop up message telling them they have a match appears.

I saw this mod on a forum years ago and its taken me ages to track down the guy who made it. I am not a developer and dont know much about making this. I did however contact the guy who found the old script and sent this message with it.

This is probably not going to work.

I found the old code, but don't have a database backup for it which means I don't have the templates or the database tables.

I've attached the file which is the include file. If you have a vBulletin coder available, or if you know how to make hacks then this will give you a starter for 10. In profile.php look for the word "HACK" as I always marked what I changed so I could find and maintain it later.

The reason I don't believe it will work as is (even though the database table seems obvious) is that this was made for vBulletin 3.0.8 and vBulletin has had a total re-write since then.

If you have a developer who knows vB4 it should be less than a day's work, otherwise it will take someone ages just to figure out vB4.

Hope that helps in some way.

If anyone thinks they can take on the task to make this for vB 4.x.x it would be awesome.

It was an incredibly popular hack previously and would love to see it up an running again.

Thanks

Moved to Unpaid Requests since I didn't see any mention of paying for it. But I also removed the attachments because we don't allow attaching someone else's code unless you have permission. So, either post a paid request for someone to modify it, or describe more of what the mod does and leave this as an unpaid request for someone to recreate it.

Ah ok. I do actually have permission from the original coder but would be happy to forward them in an email to anyone wishing to take this on.

I'll edit my OP if thats cool.

apologies for any confusion. New to this site.
Would be great to see this hack made up. Im fully confident it would be a huge hit. I dont actually have a great deal of cash but perhaps if there are a number of us that want this. We could chip in between us to make an offer/donation to someone.

Could we request from a developer/hacker a rough estimate so us that want it can work something out between us.

Unless, someone is prepared to do it for free. I know i'd vote this a mod of the month :)

If you want a coder to do this for a fee, you can post the request in the paid services forum, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=30 coders will contact you with their quotes, but make sure you read this, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=69734

Oh, OK. Sorry about that. If that's the case then you can add the attachments again if you want.
