vBcustompage 1.0 [Archive]

vBcustomPage
Version 1.0 | A hack by Velocd :ninja:

Update - 7/27/02 - Bug fix

I accidentally forgot to add the instructions on how to allow the admin to modify the custom page name and content via ACP.

Please refer to the 7-27-02fix.txt for instructions on how to fix it.

What does this hack do?

This integrated vB add-on will allow your users to have their own custom page built on simple HTML. In addition, the admin can specifiy a minimum post count that all users must achieve before they are allowed the creation of a custom page.

Why is it useful?
More creativity and ways for the users to express themselves on your forum. Users who do not match the postcount needed to create custom pages will want to post more in order to get it. Ofcourse this isn't going to happen just because it's written here, but the possibilities are unknown until you try it out.

Features:
Via the ACP users page, the admin can toggle whether a member is allowed to use custom pages.
Via the ACP users page, the admin can also modify the users custom page name, and also the content.
Javascript code filter + offensive language block
The name of your custom page will show up in the title bar of your custom page (big wow, I know ;))
..more creativity for your users!

WARNINGS:
As with HTML in posts and signatures, the vulnerabilities of allowing your members to create pages using HTML could be risky. Please moderate your member custom pages (view the source) on a daily basis, insuring that no malicious code is hidden away somewhere.

Screenshots?
Screenshots are included in the zip.

Bugs?
None that I know of, but if you find any please let me know!

-----------------------------------------

Attached is the hack zip. If you use this hack on your forum, please click the install!

Suggestions and comments are always welcomed :)

I just updated the zip, fixing a small typo in the end of the install.htm, where NEW TEMPLATES was mentioned twice :rolleyes:

There are also some area's that have strange hexademical values for the colors, this is because I accidentally left { secondaltcolor} in them and it got translated by vB accidentally. But hopefully there should be no problem in figuring it out ;)

i might edit it the code a bit too customize it for my board if u dont mind?

It's a good idea, but I think it would be better if it was based on a regular vbulletin page and editable by filling in set fields at the 'create page' stage, rather than having the user be allowed to use html. I'm sure it would be possible to do that, replacing the html part for the more limited but 'safer' VBcode. For a big board with a lot of regular users it would be very time consuming to check each members page to make sure the content was non-malicious.

Great hack Velocd!

I was thinking of making this myself, but you saved me the trouble;)

Hmmm...

Why dont you make it so that Admins can make one without needing to get a certain amount of posts?

Make sure you have created the template getinfo_custompage, and that it contains the following:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>$bbtitle - $userinfo[custompagename]</title>
$headinclude
<body>
$header
<br>

$userinfo[custompage]

<br>
$footer

</body>
</html>

Feel free to integrate this if you like, I personally don't use Lesane store hack, but when making this hack I also thought it would make a good addition.

I know the idea of allowing HTML worries alot of people, and I'm personally not too fond of it, but I can never know how things turn out until I try them myself. I have it running on my forums, and those with the minimum 300 post count seem to think it's a great idea, funny thing is most these members don't even know HTML. :cheeky:

To use vBcode would seem like the most ideal way of making this hack, but then I would have to create vBcode tags for all those HTML tags, such as creating tables, embed tag, etc. And I don't have the coding experience, nor the time, to do it right now. Another way would be to have it check the HTML making sure nothing bad was being put in, but this is another thing I'm not quite sure of how to do. It has a basic checker that eliminates javascript and any other language but HTML, and thats it.

For my forums I can trust my members, mainly because my forum is relatively small, and I know all the members pretty well. Although for a forum with many many members, I know this would become a problem. You could set the enablecustompage to default off, and then if a member would like a custom page you check with them first and switch them to on. This seems even more time consuming though.

I think it would be better if it was based on a regular vbulletin page and editable by filling in set fields at the 'create page' stage

I'm not too sure what you mean by this, could you explain alittle further nemesis01? :)

@DemiNeo0101 -

Search for :

That was only "#1C5780", because vB parses the code as that...

Satan

Hmm :
1. Image upload after X posts - that should prevent most people from "chating"

2. I ment that includes should be very small like a table with a theme chosen by user

3. One more thing. Every user can have pre-installed web page like.

Hello, I'M $username. I live in $location ... etc :))

P.S I could write that hack but I'm new @ VB so knowing PHP is not enought :P

Chris M

07-29-2002, 06:35 PM

Then you obviously dont allow Guests to view User Profiles...

Ill take a look at it tommorow - now i'm to tired :P

Jalrock

07-29-2002, 06:54 PM

Can this be modified to use usergroups instead of post count. If so anyone want to show me how.

I am not that good with PHP but have installed many hacks with no problems. I have been trying to creat this same hack for 3 months now and all I have managed to do is destroy my user profile pages.

Jalrock

07-29-2002, 06:58 PM

Would this work?

Replace:
if ($bbuserinfo[posts]<300) {

With:
if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==8) {

Chris M

07-29-2002, 07:26 PM

No...

This :

if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=6 and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=7 and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=5 and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]!=8) {

Well there is no imaging upload first of all, there is just image hotlinking from another website, but I figure that's what you meant. There is no way to prevent linking adult or offensive images, but hopefully the specific rules given on the custompage screen in the user profile will make it VERY clear. Also allowing members with a certain postcount, should be high, should allow those common with the forum rules to know whats right and wrong. Just be sure you moderate the pages, maybe create a new usergroup just for moderators that check the pages, insuring the code is safe and there is no bad content.

What do you think about that ?

Having multiple pages might be a consideration for a future version of this hack, but I have no intention right now in adding that feature. Same goes with image upload, and actually I probably won't ever release image upload unless somebody else wants to code it out, only because your forum isn't meant to be a private Angelfire, or whatever..

For your third request, this can be done very simple.
Just replace the template getinfo_custompage with the following:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>$bbtitle - $userinfo[custompagename]</title>
</head>

$userinfo[custompage]

</html>

All I really did was remove the $header, $headinclude, and $footer. NOTICE though that I removed the <body> and </body> tags, this means in the modifycustompage screen, your users will have to add the <body></body> tags within the body content field. If you add it default like this: <body></body>, I believe your vB will modify it to it's style replacement set value. But if you specify <body bgcolor="#345678"></body>, it will set the background color to that hexadecimal value.

-------------------------------

Those still recieving a blank page when you click on the custompage link in the user profile, I'm not too sure what to say but make sure you follow the instructions exactly doing everything as told.

Thanks for all the feedback :)

As mentioned before, it is probably a mistake some of you are making. For some people who have installed this hack they say it works perfectly, while a few people are reporting a blank page being shown up. The instructions are quite lengthy, so just make sure you go carefully through it. I have it installed and it works fine.

I'll go through the instructions again to insure nothing is missing.

Velocd

07-29-2002, 11:11 PM

Could anybody who is recieving the blank page tell me if it is a complete blank page (pure white), or if the blank page consists only of the $header, and $footer visible elements.

just a dummy point of view but what happens if you dont remove the space from the first and second color thing?

Mithan

07-30-2002, 03:13 AM

Now for the somewhat annoying parts. Find:

$cpnav[7]="#1C5780";

And place below it:

PHP:

$cpnav[8]="#1C5780";

Sorry, bud, but I cant find a any #1c5780 in my members.php file.

This is what my one area looks like:
// draw cp nav bar
$cpnav[1]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpnav[2]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpnav[3]="{firstaltcolor}";
$cpnav[4]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpnav[5]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpnav[6]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpnav[7]="{secondaltcolor}";
$cpmenu[9]="class=\"fjsel\" selected";
eval("\$cpnav = \"".gettemplate("usercpnav")."\";");

All mentionings of CPNav are with that secondaltcolor.

So what do I do?
Put $cpnav[8]="#1C5780"; UNDER the $cpnav[7]="{secondaltcolor}"; lines?

Thanks.

07-30-2002, 03:40 AM

++++, nevermind... I see what you meant lol

Velocd

07-30-2002, 04:22 AM

I'll make a reminder to myself to change the instructions and make those hexidecimal values to {secondaltcolor }

See if you type {secondaltcolor } without the space in a post on vB.org, and any vBulletin forum, it will replace it with whatever color is in the replacement thingy.

As for leaving {secondalotcolor } that way, it will just screw the colors up, usually making it a neon green or something, I can't remember. So be sure to remove that space.

Mithan

07-30-2002, 04:26 AM

Ok another question.

How would I modify the code so that this will work from the postbit template? Ie- show right up on the forums itself, without requiring a user to click on your name before he can access your site?

You can see my forums here:
http://www.ac2hq.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2286

What I would like to do is under a persons name on the left side, put the Custom Page link. If I do it now, nothing shows up.

Any tips?

ripman

07-30-2002, 07:31 AM

If you have any problems I suggest to reinstall whole hack :P Mayby you missed the instruction eg. REPLACE instead of BELOW.

At the second time everything works fine exept that damn non-registered users access. Blah...

Chris M

07-30-2002, 09:03 AM

Then...

You either havent removed that code, or you dont allow Guests to do much...

@Mithan...

Change this below, from yoursite.com/forums to the path to your boards...

<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/member.php?s=&action=getcustompage&userid=$userid">Custom Page</a>
You can format it how you like:)

Then, in the posbit template, find :
$post[usertitle]
And below it add the code from above...

@mithan, use this if you want their page name to show up:

<a href="http://www.ac2hq.com/forum/member.php?s=&action=getcustompage&userid=$post[userid]">$post[custompagename]</a>

You can also use $post[custompageviews], to display that users hits for their page.

The major areas that a mistake could be caused is in the members.php. So by chance in one of the areas that require you to select a large amount of code then replace it with the code I gave, you could have overwrited another hack maybe. This calls for you doing it manually then, since most of the time I only added a variable or something within the code.

I know nothing about html but it wasn't too hard to get the basics through a post he made, it would be awesome if that hack had a quick FAQ link to the side, just telling the basics of HTML, it didn't but luckily velocd posted them so it was ok.

anyways, thats all ^^;

That is very well possible, and being that I am bored up here in Mt. Shasta maybe I'll do it :D
It'll make it easier for those who don't know HTML, and for those who are alittle concerned letting users have it on the forum.

The only thing is, it would be a set template that everyone would have to use, meaning..everypage would have the same layout, just different content.

Did you do the sql queries?

@Velo - I have an idea...

If you go to my site, and try and view a page for someone who has not got one, like userid 70, it just shows up as a Page with no Content...

Is there a way to make the page check for firstly their post count, and if it is under 300, it displays a Default Page...If it is over 300, it can check for a certain number of characters or something?

That way it would look less Blank;)

@HellSatan:

It really shouldn't be doing that...as I last recalled, I put a check in there to insure that when a member views another member page although they don't have one, it's suppose to give an error.

I don't really have the time right now to supply some of the add-ons requested, but anyone here is fully welcome to tamper with the source ofcourse and create your own add-ons. Go ahead and release them on vB.org if you like.

As mentioned before, it is probably a mistake some of you are making. For some people who have installed this hack they say it works perfectly, while a few people are reporting a blank page being shown up. The instructions are quite lengthy, so just make sure you go carefully through it. I have it installed and it works fine.

I'll go through the instructions again to insure nothing is missing.

a blank page is from the space in the $cpnav[1]="{ secondaltcolor}";

they should remove all spaces from{ second...}

What i get is not enough post to use the system. i'm running the newest version of vbulletin. I did set the right values.

Is there any way to make it so that the link to the Custom Page shows in the postbit ONLY if the user actually has a Custom Page?

So that way people won't have to guess whether or not a user has a Custom Page, before they click the link?

Amazing hack btw, I love it :)

One questions did any one get an error with the first query?

alter table user
add custompageviews int(20) not null default'0'

Mine comes back saying the 0 isnt valid.

thanks

Velocd,
you helped me a lot.

ok im getting confused...

in the help file...this info here...

Now for the somewhat annoying parts. Find:

PHP:

$cpnav[7]="#1C5780";

And place below it:

PHP:

$cpnav[8]="#1C5780";

Wherever $cpnav[7]="#1C5780"; shows up, you need to add the $cpnav[8] bit.

Do this also for MEMBER2.PHP, PRIVATE.PHP, and USERCP.php (which should all be alittle easier).

and after making the modifycustomimage_bit

MAKE SURE you modify the above template, such as the description and restrictions, to your own preference. Also where each and every { secondaltcolor} and { firstaltcolor} is, you will want to remove that space. I currently use custom replacement sets, so you will have to modify these colors to your liking, because I'm sure the default look will look very bland.

Please clear it up for me...I am not understanding what to do with these instructions..

Might be cuz I haven't got enough sleep or soemthing in past week, but it is throwing me off...lol

Hey Velo Cd. Any word on making the pages updated via Custom Fields? or something like that? 1 Image field.. an intro field and maybe a body field? With one MAIN template to edit? Doesnt matter if they all look alike. But i would really think this would go over even better.

Sounds like almost exactly what I have been looking for, does anyone have it up and running that I could preview?

Im also very concerned about allowing users full html access, so if anyone has modded this to prevent certain malicious code, or more importantly to me if they have made it easier for non-code savvy users to input info, please let us know. =)

Okay, downloaded it and checked the pics in the zip. For anyone else wondering what the finished board looks like, here are some examples:

Any word on upgrading to vb code instead of html, or a more friendly user interface? :paranoid:

One downside to this hack, the attachment feature is not used to let users upload their images to the server, and then use $custompage_image anywhere in their text. Now they are still required to upload it some place else :/

Or am I missing something ?

Thanks for the screen :) now I know if I want to install. Is there any way to have this NOT in the usercp? Because my navigation in usercp is pretty full do to vbpad and I added a separate avatar and sig section too

i know i'm kinda late with this.. monto, try adding a ';' at the end of that first query. i think thats what it was missing. otherwise, i have this working well on 2.2.9. ;)

This is about the most time consumeing hack I have
installed to date and yet so easy.

I was missing.

eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_updatethanks")."\",\"usercp.php ?s=$session[sessionhash]\");");

}

Due to my own mistake and also in admin/user.php
there is 2 lines with.

makeyesnocode("Use email notification by default","emailnotification",$user[emailnotification]);

And also I have the vb members photo hack installed
and had problems with cpnav[8] I had to rename this
to cpnav[10] in all the file mods and template mods.

That did throw me off a little, but other than that the
hack works well. If I could recommend some any
thing it would be some cosmetic template changes
and also some buttons that will format the txt a wysiwyg
editer or something to that affect.

Here is s screen shot of a users page with the
cosmetic template changes.

great hack. I just installed it in 2.3.0, I was wondering how all users can view the pages. i enabled the members list. also, my page counter does not go up for some reason.

thanks!

ok i have some suggestions on this GREAT hack

- the page viewable in profile (under the normal fields) .. or tru the link (like its now) admins can select that

- the use of bbcodes instead of HTML, i guess thats pretty easy using vbulletin

- special codes like [username] = shows the username of the user that is viewing the profile, or [hits] shows the current hits the profile had

- tagboard (ive installed profile tagboard by the_wanderer)

- image upload functions after they reach an amount of posts (eg. 1000 posts = 2 images, 3000 posts = 5 images)

hope u can add these functions very soon to this GREAT hack, thnx for making something like this i realy like it.

greets.

Does anyone how to take off the header from the custom pages? :(

(edit) i got it ;)

DiscussAnything

10-23-2003, 06:44 PM

Awesome hack, just did an installation without any problems :)

One question though. I changed it so that only certain usergroups have access (as opposed to the postcount). When I try to view the custom page for a user that doesnt have one or is not allowed, it still loads everything: the header and the 'body' bit, which obviously is empty. What do I need to do to add an errormessage, that the selected user doesnt have a custom page?
Also, when I do member.php?action=getcustompage (no user is selected) you get the errormessage that that users page has been disabled due to abuse. Could that be altered to show that no userid was selected?

thanks
