Mark Buddy on Who's Online? Page

[TWTCommish]

Tiny hack: this sticks a little arrow in front of the username of anyone on the Who's Online? page who's on your buddy list. It's been workin' fine for me, so I expect it'll work for you, too. Enjoy. :)

Chris, instead of doing this:
if ($bbuserinfo[userid]) {
$buddies = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT buddylist FROM user WHERE userid = $bbuserinfo[userid]");
}
Then using $buddies['buddylist'], you can just use $bbuserinfo['buddylist']. :) It will empty for guests automatically.

Nice hack!

[TWTCommish]

My bad; thanks for the tip. I should've known that would've been available. D'oh! :D

[Lionel]

[Floris]

[nafae]

[Xanthine]

Nice little addition, thanks.

Nice job,

I used an image instead of an arrow

in the instructions change
$userinfo[username] = "? $userinfo[username]";

to

$userinfo[username] = "<img border=0 src=/forums/images/buddy_online.gif width=16 height=16 ALT=Buddy style=\"float: left\"> $userinfo[username]";

[TWTCommish]

I knew someone would use an image. Very cool. :)

[GK_ng]

thanks man, very nice hack !


Nevertheless I had the following Problem with this hack:

when adding Userid '11' to my Buddylist, it showed me (Userid '1') as my buddy as well. (might be because of the PHP-Version 4.06) :(

After Changing the whole thing to
$buddy_list = " ".$bbuserinfo[buddylist]." ";
$singlebuddy= " ".$userinfo[userid]." ";

if (stristr($buddy_list, $singlebuddy)) {
$userinfo[username] = "? $userinfo[username]";
}
it worked for me and showed only the users as buddy, that actually ARE my buddies.


PS: why is this php-code-box so huge in preview ? there's at least one line too much at the bottom, but i don't seem to be able get rid of it :(

Very Good hack...

I especially like the Image...

GK: hmmm, I'm not sure. It might have something to do with the PHP version, but I really don't know. I'm very glad you got it working, though. :)

Good hack and picture! But when I use a picture it slightly moves down to the right. That is allocates not directly near a left edge, and hardly more to the right. How it to correct?

Can you post a screenshot? I'm having trouble understanding the problem...

[inetd]

Screenshot.

And I Have other trouble. All user see image near Administrator nickname. How to correct this?

[Chris M]

@TWT - I noticed today, that one of the people I didnt add to my Buddy List, had a Buddy Icon on Whos Online?

Any explanations?

try using the fix i posted instead.

Examples are Userids 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - all these are your buddies, once you add a user with a userid like 123456789 or 987654321 (just an example).
this is why i used stristri/strpos for "[space]1[space]" instead - this checks for the userid with a space in front and after the userid ... Of course, you have to add a space in front of and after the original buddylist, or else it wouldn't find the first and last buddy ....

hope this helps :smoke:

[Chris M]

@inetd - Yes I am...Does that have an effect on it?

[inetd]

When i not logged to board, i see near other Guest gif from buddy... How fix?

[TWTCommish]

I'm sorry, can you re-phrase that? I don't understand.

$buddy_list = " ".$bbuserinfo[buddylist]." ";
$singlebuddy= " ".$userinfo[userid]." ";

if (stristr($buddy_list, $singlebuddy) and trim($singlebuddy!="")) {
$userinfo[username] = "? $userinfo[username]";
}

copy and paste over the old code, tell me if it works !

thx

[inetd]

GK_ng, i paste this code nearly. but bug not fixed...

nearby oder almost ? what do you mean with nearly ?

anyway, if it doesn't work, place the check before the actual buddylist-check ... should look somewhat like this: if ($bbuserinfo[userid]!='0') {

$buddy_list = " ".$bbuserinfo[buddylist]." ";
$singlebuddy= " ".$userinfo[userid]." ";

if (stristr($buddy_list, $singlebuddy)) {
$userinfo[username] = "? $userinfo[username]";
}

}around the whole thing (you can take the one from post 12 again), since guest's don't even have a buddylist - so why should you check for it ...

[inetd]

GK_ng, code from #30 good work! Thank you!

[Dynamic One]

Thanks for this nice hack. Will use it right away :D.

[Boofo]

Is this hack supposed to show me as my own buddy with a buddy icon when I am viewing the online.php? And, yes, I am the admin. :)
