How do I configure what forum report threads should go to?
At the top of userpage.php, there are several clearly documented variables that you can edit. One of these establishes the forumid that you want reported pages to be reported to.

Sweet hack. I won't download it now - but give me a pm when you got it fully done :)

[Christine]

Amy -- this is sweet! An awesome addon for donating members. :D

I have no suggestions as I just glanced at the screen shots, but am getting ready to roll my 3.5 test site out to the subscribers to play with. I will load this and get their feedback for you (once it is filtered for reasonableness, of course :p )

Edit -- I guess that is the first request, to make it a usergroup specific permission. :)

It already is, Christine. You can control in the admincp who can create, view and moderate them.

[twoseven]

one thing maybe you want to print an error or something if one goes to a page where a user hasnt set up their page i was going to random pages and seeing no data like "this user hasnt set up a page yet" type of error.

i'm working on getting my production server back up with 3.5 will be able to help once thats up and kicking

Good idea. I put in a basic message and updated the zip.

[amykhar]

I thought I was done with this for a while, but I seem to be in a coding frenzy today. I have added the ability to moderate the content of the pages.

I have also added basic WOL functionality.

If you have already installed, upgrading is simple:
1. Import the plugin
2. Replace the contents of the userpage template with:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr><td class="alt1" width="100%" >
$pagedata
</td>
</tr><tr><td align="right" class="tcat">
<if condition="$showeditlink"><a href="userpage.php?do=edit">Edit Your Page</a><br /></if>
<if condition="$showmodlink"><a href="userpage.php?do=moderate&userid=$userid">Moderate This Page</a></if>
</td></tr></table>

3. Reupload the userpage.php file.

The zip file includes the latest version.

looks good, anyway of getting a guestbook in??

Yes. I think it's doable as an addon. Let me think about the best way to implement it.

Amy

[ranger2kxlt]

Will this only work for beta? has it been tested on 3.0.x?

[amykhar]

Will this only work for beta? has it been tested on 3.0.x?
This is the 3.5 mod section. Nothing here works on 3.0.x. I generally code for the most recent release only, and only do work on older versions when filling service requests.

Sorry.

Amy

[COBRAws]

would it be possible to access user custom pages as this:

members.yoursite.com/user

It would be AWESOME, willing to pay if so.

[twoseven]

that is possable with a modrewrite rule

[MediaHound]

Seems cool - I'm looking for something like this for my 3.5, but with a photo gallery for the users as well.
Any suggestions?

[Kirk Y]

I like the idea and will install on my forum! Nice job, god you're pumping out a lot of hacks!

[amykhar]

Yep, and that will be one of the next steps I work on.

[amykhar]

I tend to code in spurts - especially when I'm overhauling my own site. I just share what I do for me with you guys.

[Dream]

uhm just thinking out loud, showing a list of users with pages, like userpage.php?do=list or something, sorting by name or last updated...

awww this alter tables :( nice job though

[Nordinho]

Yes. I think it's doable as an addon. Let me think about the best way to implement it.

Amy

great ;)

[Bad Bunny]

This is amazing. I used to have something like this for vb2 but nowhere near as amazing!

I might be throwing this in for people who buy stuff from our little "store"!

Amy,

Color me stupid here, but I can't find the links to create the page while logged in as a user who has permission to do so. I likely missed a step somewhere multi-tasking last night.

I have updated for the new zip this morning but still am not seeing this.

Where should I be looking and what step did I miss?

If the user goes to their own page, there is an edit link. I need to change that a bit though so it only shows for users who have permission to create a page.

Amy

[bigcurt]

Sup amy, great feature. If I had 3.5 I would install right away, I am actully looking for it for 3.0.X. If you get it ported over ( I know you only code for recent things I know ) but it is worth a shot, so if ya get it ported over please tell me or release it or anything u want.

Thanks
Big curt

[Christine]

Oh! So you access it through your profile.

Can you add a link to the UserCP for them to setup/edit?

Also, the Moderate link is not caching the templates. (9 queries for uncached templates)
Uncached templates: editor_clientscript (1)
Uncached templates: editor_jsoptions_font (1)
Uncached templates: editor_jsoptions_size (1)
Uncached templates: editor_smilie (28)
Uncached templates: editor_smiliebox (1)
Uncached templates: editor_smiliebox_row (7)
Uncached templates: editor_toolbar_on (1)
Uncached templates: newpost_disablesmiliesoption (1)
Uncached templates: userpage_edit (1)

One other request if I can. :) Would there be a way to add a notify mod on this so that our users can let the mod team know if there is something not appropriate or of concern?

Thanks so much for this mod. :)

Yeah. I am working on the list of users who have pages. I think I've just about got that done.

Christine, I'll get the templates cached. And, sure, we can put links to edit in the usercp.

And, if you wanted to, you could probably run the content through the naughty words filter and bleep them out.

Amy

[amykhar]

I have a basic list going:

http://www.eaforums.com/forums/userpage.php?do=list

It allows you to set how many to show per page by simply changing one line of code in the init section.

Should anything else be on this page?

[Christine]

Thanks Amy!

Would a 'date page last updated' be a possibility?

[Dream]

on the list, last update date... on the page itself, views, rating, send a pm link, let the user upload files... just suggesting

[amykhar]

Some good ideas. Some, I can do right away. Others, will take some time.

[amykhar]

For those of you who haven't clicked the install button, you missed the update email. ;)

Please let me know how this round of installation went. I just updated the install file and want to make sure all is well.

[Christine]

And then some of us did click install but never check our emails. Heh.

Updated just fine and working with no problems!

[Dream]

another... spiderable by google if it isnt already, dunno how

[amykhar]

I think the short urls will handle Google.

You would just need to tinker with your template in the list to use the short urls instead of the dynamic ones I used. Next update, I'll have the short urls in that list.

[amykhar]

And then some of us did click install but never check our emails. Heh.

Updated just fine and working with no problems!
Christine, do you feel like sharing a url or two that I can use in the examples list in the first post?

[justindwhite]

Everything seems to be working good, except when I try to s et the permissions, this is what im getting.

[Christine]

Hi Amy,

I am moving servers in another week and the test site is using a temp domain. When I get moved and DNS is propogated, I will send them over.

[amykhar]

The phrases didn't install to the language you are using. Go to the phrase manager and copy them over.

Also, make sure to update the bitfields or the edits won't stick.

[Sovereign]

Excellent hack! I had the "phrases AWOL from Admin CP" issue, fixed that. Unfortunately, the SQL quieries were not executed, and I had to manually add "ALTER TABLE ".TABLE_PREFIX."usergroup ADD userpagepermissions INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL ;" myself.

[The Avatar]

Could you include an un-installer script in this hack?

It would be a good feature and I would probably install it if it had this function.

[shiva]

Looks very cool. :)
Be sure to install this one when I get my new server in a couple months.

File uploading would be very nice, I have a lot of people who need some space, and when I told them about some of the new features with VB and "additions", this was one they really wanted.

By the way, I noticed that there's a blog type listing on your forum home, is this part of the extension, or is that manually added?

Those are links to my members external blogs and predate what I'm working on now.

I have file uploading working with another script I'm working on. I'll see about pulling it into this one. But, I have a couple more things I want to add to it first.

Yeah, the installer needs work. I'll be improving that and adding updrade and uninstall stuff as I go. This is the first time I've ever included an installer with my stuff. I usually make y'all go through the contortions of adding all the phrases, queries and templates manually. I'm evil like that. :D

AmySorry I have been very busy! I just got time to install this & I am not sure where I went wrong? I was trying to do too many things at once. :rolleyes:
When I goto Permissions I don't see anything for "userpage", But their is 4 check boxes at the bottom that are blank? I am guessing this is the "userpage" permissions? But ofcourse if I select them I still get the error I dont have permission. :(
I will look around & see if I can find out what I did wrong.

Thanks!

The phrases for some reason were screwy with that install file. I uploaded another one. A few posts up, I outlined how to fix the problem by searching for one of the phrases and resaving it.

[Chris M]

A couple of feature requests here amy :)

Perhaps a bbcode that can control what usergroups can see what content ;)

Let me explain:

I used to like this feature back in Logician's vB2 hack to create custom pages :)

So you can put like:
Only moderators, super mods, admins and subscribing members can see this
You don't have to have multiple groups - You can have singular groups as well :)

Also - Not sure if you have any idea of doing this, but a "comment" feature could be good, and also a "report" feature to report pages which have bad content :speechless:

Satan

[.Tim]

The phrases didn't install to the language you are using. Go to the phrase manager and copy them over.

Also, make sure to update the bitfields or the edits won't stick.

What are the phrase names? I don't see any in the phrase manager. Can you post the phrases so I can do them manually? Thanks.

[Sovereign]

is it possible to expand the hack? As in allowing users a free webpage, geocities like thing? I mean, more than one page.

[Sovereign]

Is anyone else having install trouble? The hack idea is great, but I'm having to run all queries manually because of
"CREATE TABLE ".TABLE_PREFIX." `userpage` (
`userid` INT( 15 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL ,
`pagedata` TEXT NOT NULL ,
`rating` INT NOT NULL ,
`dateline` INT( 10 ) NOT NULL ,
`username` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ( `userid` )
);

the "`"s around the vars, I'm getting SQL errors. If I delet them, (username instead of `username`) it runs fine.

Regarding the BB codes, any code that works on your board works on these pages.

I am going to do a guestbook and a ranking feature. The report button is a nice idea. Will do.

I am also going to add file uploads in the next release.

I am having a sligh issue with setting the usergroup permissions.

I have gone to the user group page and scrolled to the bottom, but all of the options are blank (i.e. no text). I think I must have done something wrong.

Also, there was no .httaccess file in the folder I downloaded.

[amykhar]

The .htaccess file is most definitely in the zip. I just checked. Regarding the phrases, the installer has a glitch. I haven't got time to redo it this morning, but hopefully will this afternoon.

[theArchitect]

The .htaccess file is most definitely in the zip. I just checked. Regarding the phrases, the installer has a glitch. I haven't got time to redo it this morning, but hopefully will this afternoon.
Maybe it is a Mac thing i.e. .httaccess is being read as a hidden file and therefore not being displayed. Because I just downloaded the zip file again and I can't see it.

Try setting your machine to show hidden files. :) I don't know how that's done on a mac, but there must be a setting somewhere. :)

[twoseven]

there is i dont even know where its at on a mac (and i use one). just upload the zip to the server and unzip it there. thats quicker anyhow than uploading independant files

[Bad Bunny]

Maybe it is a Mac thing i.e. .httaccess is being read as a hidden file and therefore not being displayed. Because I just downloaded the zip file again and I can't see it.
I have the same issue. You need Tinker Tool to view hidden files. All files that start with . are hidden.

It's a very easy to use tool. I turn the "view hidden files" on to edit htaccess, and then back off.

Hello, i recently tryed to imnstall your hack however was met with problems (it just didnt work). I decided i no longer wanted to try and uninstalled the hack. Yesterday i upgraded by boards to beta 4 and now when trying to change usergroups i have this error

same here... i looked in the install file for this modification to see what database changes to drop and i dropped everything that i seen that this hack added... also i uploaded a clean usergroup.php and still get the error. Cannot change any usergroup settings and submit it without getting that error.

I couldnt get the hack working right for some reason thats why i wanted to uninstall it.

[amykhar]

This is why I hate freaking install files. It takes all the control and common sense out of the process. I've removed the zip file because people don't seem to be reading that the install file had a glitch that I didn't have time to work on at the moment.

You need to delete the bitfield_userpage.xml file.

Try rebuilding your bitfields the way you did when you first installed it. First remove the bitfield_userpage.xml, then rebuild bitfields.

[GamerzWorld]

That worked, id upgraded as well which i think caused problems. For anyone else having problem run

admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

[Ron1n]

this is a great hack concept, a realy great mod

[amykhar]

OK. I have redone the installation script. It's working fine on my test board. I uploaded version 1.1b which only contains an updated installation script. If 1.1 installed fine for you, you don't need to get or install this version.

Hopefully, I will be able to release another update this weekend that will contain:
a) Page Views
b) A report button people can use to report naughty content to the admins.
c) File uploads
d) Page ratings

This is a really great and helpful hack for me. I was wondering one thing though. I have only 1 group that I'm allowing to create a custom page. Is there a way that you can code in a little something so that a link doesn't show on users that do not have permissions to create a page? Just to clarify what I'm asking, if I go into a user's profile, there is a link to their personal page. I would like to have this link only display for someone that has permissions to have one and not display for those that do not have permissions.

Would this be something easily done?

Not sure what's happening for you. I have not seen that error nor has anybody else reported it.

I ended up fixing it with a forum upgrade (beta 4). I do believe the issue was related to the bitfield command and beta 3. I am not 100% sure the relation, but the upgrade fixed it (thank god). *does db backup* LOL.

[tomjinx1]

Does this newest version fix the missing text in the group permissions? I have looked everywhere through this thread and can't find how to fix that problem.

The missing text was an installer problem and yes, I believe the new installer handles that.

[Martin]

No, it doesn't. My usergroup permissions are all blank :ermm:

I just installed this like 10 minutes ago. I had all kinds of problems.


The "admincp" folder is called "adminp"
The instructions call for "install_userpage.php". It's "installuserpage.php" in the zip file
I got a database error creating the table. I finally just created it manually and removed the query from the installer.
There is no mention of what the "userpageupdate.php" is for. No instructions on whether or where to upload it. I would assume, since you used a folder structure, it goes in the forum root, but that's just a guess. Does it need to be uploaded at all?
No text in the Usergroup Permissions
This has the potential to be a GREAT addon for boards. Keep up the good work :)

The userpageupdate.php was for an earlier upgrade. Ignore it.

I think I am going to bail on using install files. The damn things are more trouble than they are worth. I'll rewrite the installation instructions so that y'all can manually add the phrases, templates and queries.

I think I am going to bail on using install files. The damn things are more trouble than they are worth. I'll rewrite the installation instructions so that y'all can manually add the phrases, templates and queries.

Amy
Thanks :)

I wasn't ragging on you, I promise. Just pointing out the problems I had. I do think this is a great addon :)

[amykhar]

I redid the zip file. No more install file. Real coders don't need no stinkin install file to tweak their boards anyway, right? :D

[ThePimp]

Does this newest version fix the missing text in the group permissions? I have looked everywhere through this thread and can't find how to fix that problem.

I upgraded to Beta4, and the blank Usergroup permission settings are working now.

do I need to link "userpage.php" somewhere for people to create their pages?

attaching the userpage templates xml file to use with the template manager (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=91038) if anyone need

edit: and what is that .htaccess for?

post # 88 please...

[Dream]

post # 88 please...

how did you run that query? that doesnt seem to be the full query in the install.txt

[amykhar]

help please.

That's not the full query. You only copied the first portion. Get it all on one line, copy and paste.

[Dream]

let me suggest a link in the userpage.php?do=list "create your page", cause im not finding it anywhere... and then you can just use the list as a link to the pages

also in the list there seems to be an empty row in the bottom of the list.

<tr>
<td class="tcat" align="left"></td>
<td class="tcat" align="right"></td>
</tr>

oh thats the userpage_list_bottom template, $prevlink/$nextlink are empty for me
im gonna use it to put the "create your page" link

another minor issue, "Users With Personal Pages" used as title is hardcoded, also "Page Last Updated on", also you should use "vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $lastupdate, true)" instead 'Y-m-d' format, "'s Personal Page" is hardocoded, maybe a phrase in the format "Editing {1}'s Personal Page", also if you leave your page empty it should consider you dont have a page (i was thinking about a "delete page" but then i had the idea to check that)

sorry if i sound annoying :P just giving feedback

oh and it really hurt you replied jesus like pie but not me


edit: and wol plugin is creating the wrong userpage link for me, seems $seeuserid doesnt exist


edit2: heres the userpage_list_bottom im using

<if condition="$show['member']">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" colspan="2" align="right"><a href="userpage.php?$session[sessionurl]">Go to my page</a></td>
</tr>
</if>
</table>

[amykhar]

The link in the usercp is in the next version. I just don't feel like creating a new release and all the problems that entails for such a minor change.

[Sovereign]

The link in the User CP is just a template edit. I even put it into the navbar under "Quick Links" too... Regsiter at my forums if you want, and see.

[Dream]

is that .htaccess for modrewrite

[amykhar]

is that .htaccess for modrewrite

Yes. It is.

[amykhar]

The link in the User CP is just a template edit. I even put it into the navbar under "Quick Links" too... Regsiter at my forums if you want, and see.

In my version, there is a check to see if the user has permission to create a member page before it shows the link.

[jesus likes pie]

That's not the full query. You only copied the first portion. Get it all on one line, copy and paste.



O.K but you should have but it all on one line then...not divided it into like 8 different lines...

[amykhar]

It was a pasting error. But, I'll admit it does require some common sense on the installer's part. I should never count on you guys to have that, I guess. ;)

ok i tried running this query and it didnt work either....as i said, i suck at queries..


CREATE TABLE userpage (userid INT( 15 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL ,


*sigh*

Can you just give it to me without pasting errors?

sorry for my disability on this area.....

[amykhar]

Dream, please don't release mods to this code here. I already have many new features added to the code. I am just working toward the next release. Views is already added in, and it ensures the user's views of their own page aren't counted.

Amy

[jesus likes pie]

*sniff*

I really want this!

[xxskullxx]

Pie

Run this whole block

CREATE TABLE userpage (
userid INT( 15 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL ,
pagedata TEXT NOT NULL ,
rating INT NOT NULL ,
dateline INT( 10 ) NOT NULL ,
username VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ( userid ))

then run

ALTER TABLE usergroup ADD userpagepermissions INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL

Amy has written it standard, there is nothing confusing about it.

[womensden]

looks to me that there are some things missing. I have to go into my profile to even get to my page to edit it. Did I miss something or is this just incomplete?

[amykhar]

All you have to do is go to your page. The edit link is on the lower right corner.

[womensden]

I know. But I would like a link that takes users to their page without having to go into their profile.

[womensden]

Ok... I added a link to my navbar

[amykhar]

ah. I just have a link to the list of members who have user pages on my nav menu. Then, people can see all the pages from there.

[womensden]

what is that link?

[amykhar]

oh that is a big teaser ^^ Looks great gonna install this :)

[shiva]

Looks very nice, but I'm wondering on the server load with a shoutbox.

Also, I see a update 2 days ago, but I couldn't find info on what was updated?

Just curious anyway, I'm ordering my new server, so by the time I have it ready, maybe you will have file support by then?

This looks great, very nice, I'm sure my supporting members will like it as well.

[amykhar]

An update is coming out soon. I have added:
1. User Shoutboxes/Guestbooks.
2. An archive of Shouts so that only the 10 most recent show on the user page.
3. The ability to report pages for bad content. Reports are posted to the forum of your choice. (Feel free to change that on your own to use email or PM)
4. Page Views
5. The ability for mods to delete shouts.
6. The ability for mods to delete user pages.

What's not there yet - file uploads.

Right now, I have to go through and phrase the code, which is going to take some time. Then, I have to write up the upgrade and install info. So, expect the release out tonight or tomorrow. But don't nag if it's not :D

The update two days ago wasn't to the code. I was adding a link to the member list in the first post.

Regarding the shoutboxes, the way these are done on the page, they are more like Guestbooks. And, you could call them that. They add one query to the page on a view and one if somebody shouts.

[shiva]

Okay thanks for the answers. I won't nag either. :)

then it gives me the old, "You do not have permission to access this page" error.

[cecdah]

How do I rebuild/update the bitfields?

[cecdah]

I figured it out. :)

[Sovereign]

The upgrade script (upgradeuserpage.php) calls to installuserpage.php! This was not mentioned in the directions for upgrading, you might want to change that. I get SQL errors because the upgrade script does not install the shout tables, nor does it install some phrases. Thus, I had to do more manual queries! Also, you may want to create a dynamic link that can tell whether a user has a userpage or not. The link is userpage.php?do=create, which causes a DB error if you already have a userpage. Is there a way to tell (maybe based off userpage.php?do=list) whether a user has a page? If they do, display "Edit Userpage," but if they do not, display "Create Userpage?" Other than that, good work!

I was about to ask the same. I cannot edit my personal page after creating it, get a databaseerror. The link points to userpage.php?do=create, which causes a DB error if you already have a userpage. I cannot access my userpage after creating it because there are no link to the personal page exept for this. Furthermore, how to access other members userpages?

[Sovereign]

Oh and one more thing: the installer script is full of duplicate phrases. I don't know why they are there as they cause duplicate key names etc. Like:

$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', -1, 'kill_userpage', 'Delete This User\'s Page',1 ,'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1, 'kill_userpage', 'Delete This User\'s Page',1 ,'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', -1, 'shoutbox_archive', 'Shoutbox Archive',1 ,'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1, 'shoutbox_archive', 'Shoutbox Archive',1 ,'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1,'page_reported', 'Page Reported', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 0, 'page_reported','Page Reported', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1, 'shouts_deleted','Shouts Deleted', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 0, 'shouts_deleted','Shouts Deleted', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1, 'shout_posted','Shout Posted', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 0, 'shout_posted','Shout Posted', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 1, 'page_views','Page Views', 1, 'vbulletin')");
$db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."phrase VALUES ('', 0, 'page_views','Page Views', 1, 'vbulletin')");

Every one is duplicated. I have to reinstall cause the upgrade did not work. So for my own sanity I am rewriting the queries in the install script so that I can run them. In addition, the phrase deletion queries in the installer are incomplete, they leave phrases behind!

[amykhar]

ok hold up a bit. Let me fix the upgrade script errors and move on to the other problems.

[amykhar]

Sovereign, the phrases are duplicated for a reason. One is the default language. One is English. They will run as written.

[amykhar]

I do not see an option in the Usergroup manager to allow access to the page. When I try to manually access the page: http://www.yoursite.com/forum/userpage.php?userid=1

then it gives me the old, "You do not have permission to access this page" error.

There is no access in the usergroup manager to the pages. There will not be because that would require code mods because there are no hooks in the admincp.

Put a link somewhere on your site to the list of personal pages. Where you put the link to the list is up to you.

[amykhar]

I was about to ask the same. I cannot edit my personal page after creating it, get a databaseerror. The link points to userpage.php?do=create, which causes a DB error if you already have a userpage. I cannot access my userpage after creating it because there are no link to the personal page exept for this. Furthermore, how to access other members userpages?

I fixed the usercp link so that if you have a page, it shows the edit link. If you don't have a page, it shows the create link.

I fixed the upgrade script and updated the install and upgrade instructions as well.

If you have already installed last night's version, all you need to do is re-import the plugin and make the usercpshell template edit again.

Later today, I will put a wrapper around the query so that if you have already created the page, it won't try to do it again. That will stop that one database error.

[john1744]

Hmm, I must not understand, I cannot access any Userpages, or the list of pages, as it gives me an error that I the admin cannot access the page due to insufficient privelages.

*Goes to install update*

[amykhar]

NO! If you have done a fresh install, don't try to install the update. Hold on a minute and let's try to figure out what you are missing.

[john1744]

haha ok Amy.

[john1744]

I'm really not sure what the deal could be, as it seems the features are all there, and it was a very simple install, I just am not able to access these features.

[amykhar]

Send me a link to your site please. I hate trying to debug in the dark. But, if I had to guess, I'd say you didn't update the bitfields. That would make the usergroup permissions not stick.

[amykhar]

OK. We got John sorted out. :) He forgot to upload bitfield_userpage.xml and set his permissions.

[Sovereign]

Sovereign, the phrases are duplicated for a reason. One is the default language. One is English. They will run as written.

I always get "Duplicate Key" even when I uninstalled everything...

If you have a problem with them, just zap one instance.

No problem. You already ran that query. Just skip it. Do these manually and you're done. Fix the table prefix part, of course, before you run them. I'm updating the zip now.

I can access my personal page via url, and also get a listing via url, have added a link in the navbar using :

<if condition="$show['member']">

How do I add the links to usercp?

cecdah, did you install the plugin? That sets it up so the links will show in the usercp.

Regarding the who's online I may need to add more locations in the plugin. I'll look into it, Sovereign.

It was the userpage-plugins.xml right? Not the userpage.xml located in the admincpfolder?

Right. and if you look in your plugin manager, you should see a plugin for Userpage usercp link

Also I have a few ideas for your next release.

I see we both use coppermine. I was thinking of having a navigation box like you have on your forum, but only appears on the user's page. They can put whatever links they want in there, but also it has a link to their coppermine image gallery.


Also the ability to create more than one page. Like they can have an option to "add new page" or something (which also adds to the navigation box).

Just a few ideas.

Also the ability to create more than one page. Like they can have an option to "add new page" or something (which also adds to the navigation box).I also would appreciate this. Multiple pages and the shout box / guestbook should be on an extra page too.
One more thing: Users should be able to delete / alter shouts in their shoutbox, so that there is no need to contact the mods/admins.

I have the pluginlink, but still no link in usercp.

I might go around this by adding a link in the navbar named "Blog", and place submenus with "Users with blog" + Edit blog + create blog

[cecdah]

I can not set permission for usergroup :( and how to rebuild bitfields?

Thanks in advanced!

To rebuid bitfields change the domainname in this link to your domain and paste it into your browser, hit enter and your done.:

You have to translate the phrases to your boards mainlanguage.

Go to admincp, languages and phrases, phraseadministration I think (have another translation). Check page by page that every phrase has a translation in your default language.

This worked for me when I couldnt see the alternatives for permissions.

[cecdah]

Amykhar: I finally got it right, deleted the links in pluginpage, and imported the xmlfile fresh!

Everything is working like a charm.

Personalpagetip for inserting images:

I find no IMG tag in the editbox, but basic html works great.
Like this:
<img src="http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Humor/Blonde.jpg">

:)

[amykhar]

The img tag is there for me. :confused: Which style of editor are you using in your account? I am using the WYSIWYG.

[cecdah]

I am using the WYSIWYG, but no IMG tag.

[cecdah]

:ermm:

[amykhar]

OK. Let me look at the parameters passed into the editor again. BRB.

[amykhar]

Dumb question, does the img tag show up for you on your posting and PM templates? From what I've read in the code, it checks to see if you have img bbcode enabled and then shows the button.

this is a very sweet mod and open to expansion too :)

Yes, I naturally thought of that because this is a brand new install of vb. ;)
However, I will check some more before blaiming it on the hack. :)

[amykhar]

Is there anywhere that you don't allow images? signatures, private messages, etc?

[arurcard]

yo amy did you read my ideas? I'm interested to know what you think.

[arurcard]

are you supposed to delete the old plugin before you run the new one?

[Dream]

are you supposed to delete the old plugin before you run the new one?

yes, vBulletin doesnt ovewrite plugins

[arurcard]

yes, vBulletin doesnt ovewrite plugins
i still don't have a link in my user cp

[Dream]

i still don't have a link in my user cp

have you edited the usercp templates

[Injektilo]

PROBLEM... Installed fine, everything ok, but when i am on usergroup permitions, i update permitions but when the page reloads, permitions are still the same (like i havent changed anything) ... Anyone?

[amykhar]

You didn't update your bitfields. When you add a new permissions file, you MUST update your bitfields for each and every mod.

[Injektilo]

sorry man, but how do i update bitfields? :p

[.Tim]

admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

[arurcard]

have you edited the usercp templates
no Ill revert it anyways and see what happens

[Benj]

would you be able to build in a style editor into this so users canchange the colour of there bg etc add some images effects etc

[amykhar]

It's a decent idea for an add-on, but it's not what I envision for this mod. I want the user pages to match my site in look and feel. It's not something I need, so I'm sorry, but I won't be spending any time on that at this point.

[Benj]

thats cool, you know with regards to file uploads hows this gonna work.... are admins gonna have options like allow file upload file types, number of files, file sizes etc and how are they going to be displayed im thinking of using this as a kinda music profile for bands...

[Martin]

This keeps getting better and better. Good stuff Amy :)

I'm envisioning that the admins can determine allowable file types and set up per-user quota. Users and admins will have a file manager interface as well.

Amy

[zeropaid]

what happens if i install this mod on 3.0

[amykhar]

It doesn't work because it was written for 3.5

[Neutral Singh]

Gr8 hack!! I think admin should have a option for adding userpages on behalf of members. I find out that admin/moderators can operate only on those userpages which have been created. How about an option allowing admin to create a userpage on behalf of members?

Cheers!!

[Sovereign]

You have to set usergroup permissions. Then users can make their own pages. Example page made by user (http://alliancemodding.com/vb/bazookaman) at my forum. And how does that "mod_rewrite" thing work anyway? Just curious how the username is translated into the userid.

The Mod rewrite essentially looks for any word after your forum url that is not followed by a backslash. It checks to see if the word is a valid username (and isn't a filename). If it is, you get the user's page. If it isn't, you get an error.

One thing to note. If you have things like a gallery installed under your forum directory, you need to make sure your links to those scripts have the trailing slash. Like:

http://www.eaforums.com/forums/gallery/
instead of
http://www.eaforums.com/forums/gallery

[Sovereign]

I see, thanks

[Benj]

any ideas on the release date of the next version (hopfully with the file upload section :lol:) :rolleyes:

No, let me make myself more clear, i think, admin should also have the option of creating Userpages for members, who somehow cannot do it themselves or request an admin to do them a favour... Presently, only after a member clicks on "Edit/Create Your Userpage" in 'Edit Profile' section under UserCP and saves that an admin can view the page in the Userpages drop-down under UserCP and from there admin can edit the pages. Otherwise, there is no option to directly create a page for a member ??

Secondly, unless a member goes to UserCp --> Userpages "by chance", there is absolutely no visual indicator in the Public Profile section, where a member can click to view the userpage. It can be simply like "View My Webpage" anywhere along with the name of person whose public profile we are viewing. A Link to the Userpage directly from a members public profile would really make this Extension Rock.

Any links you want can easily be added by you wherever you want them.

I'll look into letting an admin create a page for the user. Here's the thing though. Creating a page isn't rocket science. Click a link, write some content, save it. It's no harder than posting - and intentionally so.

Amy

OK!! That part is done. I managed to create a link on public profile.

Dear, think about the perspective of a member... and as i am an admin, i should be able to do anything. You can not limit the super powers of am admin. ;) Please do something in this direction.

Cheers

[dieselpowered]

That is odd...when I attempt to import the userpage_plugin.xml I get the error:

"Invalid File Specified"

[arurcard]

still no feedback on my ideas :(

[Annapurna]

OK!! That part is done. I managed to create a link on public profile.Fine ;) , please give us a hint, which file has to be changed.

Rob, I am not being paid for this work. Right now, I am concentrating on some paid work I am doing. You have to remember that this is a hobby for me and you are not going to get instant answers unless you happen to be here while I am working on the mod anyway.

[Job73]

Is there any news on this? I have the same problem as Sovereign.

Otherwise a realy nice mod!

The WOL is messed up, I'm shown as "Unknown Location
/vb/userpage.php?do=main&amp;userid=1"...

[amykhar]

That will be fixed in the next release.

[Job73]

Thx for the info..

[Mr Chad]

Im new can i install this hack on a 3.0.8 board?

[amykhar]

no. you can not.

[dieselpowered]

Amy, any idea why this is happening?

No. Try redownloading the zip.

Yeah! Sure

Edit Template: MEMBERINFO

Find :


<tr>
<td class="tcat">$vbphrase[view_profile]<span class="normal">: $userinfo[username]</span></td>
</tr>



Replace with:

<tr>
<td class="tcat"><div style="float:$stylevar[left]; padding:4px">$vbphrase[view_profile]<span class="normal">: $userinfo[username]</span></div>
<div style="float:$stylevar[right]; padding:4px">
<strong>(<a href="userpage.php?do=main&userid=$userinfo[userid]">View My Personal Webpage</a>)</strong></div></td>

</tr>


Guess what?? You are Done!! ;)

[dieselpowered]

No. Try redownloading the zip.

Ok everything installed alright, however, when in the usergroup manager...I see some permissions at the bottom, however, there are no descriptions...just buttons??

Any thoughts?

[amykhar]

If you read the very first post of the thread, you will see that you need to open a phrase and save it again. Any phrase will do.

Nice hack. Installed.

[amykhar]

Anybody have any ideas on how to get the short urls (http://www.eaforums.com/forums/amykhar for example) to show up properly on who's online?

[ThePimp]

Anybody have any ideas on how to get the short urls (http://www.eaforums.com/forums/amykhar for example) to show up properly on who's online?

Couldn't you do this with .htaccess?

[amykhar]

htaccess creates the short urls. What I need is for who's online to show the user page the viewer is looking at.

[EasyTarget]

I'd like the ability to enable/disable shouts if you're still working on stuff to add. I can't remember if this was included or not (I had this installed on a 3.5b4 test board), if it already is.. disregard this :D

great hack.

another idea.. maybe get together with zero tolerance and implement his ajax shoutbox for the userpages as well.

[Sovereign]

Well, you can do template replace but it only replaces URLs, so you have to then let your users see the exact location of everyone, and it still says Unknown Location above which is teh suck.

[ExpertDomino]

Im kinda stuck on this step, can you help... what does rebuild your bitfields mean? thanks

3. Upload bitfield_userpage.xml to your includes/xml directory. Rebuild your bitfields.

[amykhar]

Expert, it explains how to do that in the first post of the thread.

[ExpertDomino]

Im getting this in my Usergroup Manager when I try to change the permissions,

Im on this step:


4. In your admincp usergroup manager, set permissions for each of your user groups.

To be honest, I dont think I "rebuild bitfields" correctly or whatever that means because I executed that link in your FAQ in the first post and it just linked me to my Admin CP (basically the index.php in admincp) without the Navgation Menu on the left. Hmmm *thinking*......

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Your screenshot indicate that phrases are missing.

About the rebuild bitfields, yes it don't produce any visible output, i already posted that in teh bugtracker at vb.com, but it wasn't seen as a problem.

[ExpertDomino]

How do I get the "phrases" there?
