vb.org Archive - [HOW TO - vB4] Create your own vBulletin page

You could simply copy the "showgroups.php" script for this and make some modifications to it so it only shows the usergroup you want to display:
- Removing the $groupcache/$modcache functionality.
- Select the right usergroupid's.

If however your usergroup contains a lot of members, you should copy the memberlist.php script and make your modifications to it.
Or just simply hook into memberlist_fetch its $hook_query_where variable and make sure it only selects specific usergroup's based on a GET variable.

Ok so how would I identify the specific usergroups. I am not the strongest at this I am learning as I go. SO any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you look at admincp > Usergroups > Usergroup Manager, then you will see the usergroupid in the dropdown next to the usergroup name.

What I am meaning is in the code how do I identify the usergroup I wanna display? Like what do I need to change to show just that one usergroup.

If I wanted to add a custom description and keywords would I add that to the your custom code goes here?

// ###### YOUR CUSTOM CODE GOES HERE #####
$pagetitle = 'Test Page';
<meta name="description" content="Testing page" />
<meta name="keywords" content="testing, page," />

You would just add it to the template you are creating for the page.

Ok when I added it to the template I now have two meta descriptions and tags. How do I override the vB one that is pulling from the database?

You would need to put some sort of condition around the 'other' tags so that they won't show on your custom page.

Can you point me in the right direction? I don't even know what to do first, lol.

Thank you.

Thank you.

user the variable THIS_SCRIPT which you define at the top of your custom page.

HTML Code:

<vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'yourscript'">

meta tag stuff here in global template (header?)

</vb:if>

So would it look like this?

<vb:if condition="custom_page != 'custom page'">
{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
<head>
<title>test</title>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="description" content="test">
<meta name="keywords" content="test">
<meta name="author" content="I.G.O.T.A.?">
</vb:if>
