PM Statistics bar in thread view

[Zzed]

This hack was requested by SgtSling.

This is a very simple hack that displays the PM statistics of a user in the thread view screen.
It requires no template modifications because it appends itself on to $post[posts]. ;)

Here is how to implement this hack.

In showthread.php look for the following code:

while ($post=$DB_site->fetch_array($posts) and $counter++<$perpage) {

if ($postdone[$post[postid]]) {
$counter--;
continue;
} else {
$postdone[$post[postid]]=1;
}
$postbits .= getpostbit($post);
}


And replace it with the following:

while ($post=$DB_site->fetch_array($posts) and $counter++<$perpage) {

if ($postdone[$post[postid]]) {
$counter--;
continue;
} else {
$postdone[$post[postid]]=1;
}

$pmcount=$DB_site->query_first("select count(*) as msgs from privatemessage where userid = $post[userid]");
$pmratio = 100 * $pmcount[msgs] / $pmquota;
if($pmratio > 100) {
$pmratio = 100;
}
$pmstats = "<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"1\">PM Stats:</font><br>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"80%\" bordercolor=\"#000000\" bordercolorlight=\"#000000\" bordercolordark=\"#000000\"><tr><td bgcolor=\"#b5b5b5\"><img src=\"images/polls/bar3.gif\" width=\"$pmratio%\" height=\"9\"></td></tr></table>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats\n$pmcount[msgs]/$pmquota";
$post[posts]="$post[posts]$pmstats";

$postbits .= getpostbit($post);
}

Sorry :( My bad. :(

I copied and pasted this from my editor and it copied the "\" along with the line breaks.

It's fixed now. :)

I like that a lot! Is there any way I can get instructions and code if possible so I can add that to my site?

Thanks

Here you go: Spoiler Tag Instructions (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&postid=305075#Post305075) :)

[TECK]

Who is the person who rated "1" this thread?
If you think is really worth nothing, why don't you write up one similar... better?

/me just rated the thread 5

[Attrox]

Nice idea, I may install it soon. And yes, I'm not sure why this has a thread rating so low...

[Boofo]

Can this be made to work with private messages in the privmsg template?

Also, I want that spoiler vbcode, can I have it? Please? :)

Yes it can. You just need to modify the query string to do that. Feel free to PM or Email me if you need help with that. :)

And the link for the spoiler tag is in Post #7 of this thread. ;)

oh ho.. daddy likes this hack :) i will install it soon

If you are interested inseeing the PM stats in the private message view screen do the make the following changes.

In private.php:
Look for the following code:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privmsg")."\");");


Change it to the following:

$pmcount=$DB_site->query_first("select count(*) as msgs from privatemessage where userid = $fromuserinfo[userid]");
$pmratio = 100 * $pmcount[msgs] / $pmquota;
if($pmratio > 100) {
$pmratio = 100;
}
$pmstats = "<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"1\">PM Stats:</font><br>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"80%\" bordercolor=\"#000000\" bordercolorlight=\"#000000\" bordercolordark=\"#000000\"><tr><td bgcolor=\"#b5b5b5\"><img src=\"images/polls/bar3.gif\" width=\"$pmratio%\" height=\"9\"></td></tr></table>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats\n$pmcount[msgs]/$pmquota";
$fromuserinfo[posts]="$fromuserinfo[posts]$pmstats";

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privmsg")."\");");

Hey,

This looks good, I'm gonna install it :D

[Boofo]

Is there a way to have it only show up for Admins and Supermods? Great job, by the way! Works execellent. :)

Anything on the other that we talked about? ;)

[Zzed]

Here is the supermod/admin version ;)

if(($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5) OR ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6)) {
$pmcount=$DB_site->query_first("select count(*) as msgs from privatemessage where userid = $fromuserinfo[userid]");
$pmratio = 100 * $pmcount[msgs] / $pmquota;
if($pmratio > 100) {
$pmratio = 100;
}
$pmstats = "<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"1\">PM Stats:</font><br>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"80%\" bordercolor=\"#000000\" bordercolorlight=\"#000000\" bordercolordark=\"#000000\"><tr><td bgcolor=\"#b5b5b5\"><img src=\"images/polls/bar3.gif\" width=\"$pmratio%\" height=\"9\"></td></tr></table>";
$pmstats = "$pmstats\n$pmcount[msgs]/$pmquota";
$fromuserinfo[posts]="$fromuserinfo[posts]$pmstats";
}
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privmsg")."\");");

[NexDog]

Um, sorry if I'm missing the boat but what stats is it reading? How many PMs someone has received or what excatly?

[Zzed]

It is the total number of PM's a user has in their inbox and sent items folder.

[Boofo]

Thank you very much! Works great! :)

BTW: Will this count messages that they have in another folder? Like if they create a folder and move messages to it?

[Zzed]

You're very welcome. :)

It counts all the messages that belong to a particular userid.

[NexDog]

Thanks for clarifying that for me. Not sure if I can use it but it's great idea. :)

[DudeSicko]

Great works fine now :)

Thx.

If I have certain PM quota's for different usergroups, how do I get the numbers to display the amount each user HAS in the statistics column under their usergroup ... viewable to everyone?

Right now, I can get it to show the amount that the logged in user has but when I view everyone's PM count, it displays the amount that I set for the admin under everyone.

If I login under a regular user's account, it displays the right amount that they are authorized, but eveyone else has the same numbers as well!
