I'm pleased to announce RC1 of vBindex 3.0.0. RC1 brings in a few new features that I've been working on since the start of vBindex 3.0.0 which I'm now pretty confident work as expected. Here are the major changes since Beta 3:

Callendar, with links to events;
Poll, with the option to select a random poll from a given set of forums;
Optimised code;
Only 5 queries with everything switched off, and still only 12 with all options turned on, that 6 queries less than our nearest competitor!
Note, you should apply this fix by Kier to save 2 queries for non Super Moderators.
Fully phrased, both the vBindex Options and the front end are 100% phrased;
Enhanced news posts and latest threads;
Option to show disabled postshout area to unregistred users;
Todays birthdays;
Custom blocks, add unlimited custom side blocks and control them all from the ACP;
View all shouts, a full page shoutbox built it;

Visit Core Forums to obtain your copy of RC1 and see a full working demo :D

Code:

To download you will need to enter the following forum password when you follow the download forum link at Core Forums:

Due to the restrictions on discussing vB3 hacks and Addons here at vB.org, vBindex 3.0.0 Support will only be given over at Core Forums when you have PM'ed either myself or hellsatan your Core Forums username to us via the vB.org PM System.

Sorry mate but isnt nothing anyone here can do about it :) As said at the bottom of that part you posted, it says support will only be given over at core forums.

The above clearly refers to RC1 and not Pre-RC2, details of how to obtain Pre-RC2 (For vB3 Gamma) can be found in the announcement at Core Forums.

I've been curious for awhile on how to have a simple column to the left or right on vBindex displaying just the titles from a forum (say, a "Review" forum) and using it on the main page to attract attention to that particular forum. I'm not sure if this has been posted here before, but here's nothing.

It's more or less the news code already embedded in NTLDR's code from Teck, but I'll go ahead and post up how I did it anyway for those of you that were curious: [instead of having to install a large, bulky article archive]

In vbindex.php, find

PHP Code:


		
			
// news (based on code by TECK)

// -------------------------

Above it, add:

PHP Code:


		
			
$articleforum = "2";

$articleposts = "10";

$maxarticletitlechars = "22";

// ARTICLE (based on code by TECK/NEWS/VBINDEX)

// -------------------------



$articlequery=$articlequery=$DB_site->query("SELECT thread.*,threadpost.pagetext AS pagetext FROM thread LEFT JOIN post AS threadpost ON (thread.tpostid = threadpost.postid) WHERE forumid = '$articleforum' ORDER BY thread.dateline DESC LIMIT $articleposts");

while ($article=$DB_site->fetch_array($articlequery)) {

  $articlethreadid=$article[threadid];

  $articleusername=$article[postusername];

  $articleuserid=$article[postuserid];

  $comments=$article[replycount];

  if ($maxarticletitlechars!=0) {

     if (strlen($article[title]) > $maxarticletitlechars) {

        $article[title] = substr($article[title],0,$maxarticletitlechars);

        $article[title] .= "..";

     }  

  }

$articletitle="<a href=\"$bburl/showthread.php?threadid=$articlethreadid\">$article[title]</a>";

  

// end avatar

  eval("\$articlebits .= \"".gettemplate('home_articlebit')."\";");

}

eval("\$article = \"".gettemplate('home_article')."\";");



// -------------------------

// end article

Set $articleforum as the forumID of the particular forum you're after for topics.
Set $articleposts as how many topics you'd like to display
Set $maxarticletitlechars to how many characters you'd like the subject to display [useful if you're in tight table quarters and want to make your topic look clean].

Add two templates, home_article and home_articlebit:

In home_article:

PHP Code:


		
			
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" border="0" align="center">

<tr>

<td align="left"><img src="images/left2.gif"></td>

<td align="center" width="100%" background="images/catbg2.gif" valign="bottom"><b><smallfont>reviews</smallfont></b></td>

<td align="right"><img src="images/right2.gif"></td>

</tr></table>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" bgcolor="{tablebordercolor}" width="100%">

<tr>

    <td>

     <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%"><tr><td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" align="left">

$articlebits     

</td></tr>

</table>

</tr>

</table>

Just noticed in the template above -- my layout uses the left/right/background table header graphics. You may have to adjust this to match your layout.

And add the second template:

In home_articlebit:

PHP Code:


		
			


<smallfont>

-$articletitle<br>

</smallfont>

Modify the template where you'd like this to display on vBIndex [whether it be in the header, footer, home itself] and add..

PHP Code:


		
			
$article

.. to the template. Load up your vBIndex and if there were existing posts already in the forum, they should begin displaying. Just thought I'd post this in case anyone was curious.

;) Now it's your job to keep everything on topic. :P

Hi Guys,

I've just installed vbindex, it's incredible. Exactly what I was looking for.

However, I've got one little problem with it. Whenever I try to login via vbindex, it takes me to the Password recovery form. Weird, huh? Any ideas?

Another thing I just noticed: I can't log out through vbindex either. Whenever I click Logout, it says "All cookies cleared", but they aren't. When I log out through vBulletin, it works just fine.
Cookie Domain and Path is set correctly.

Thanks a lot!

BTW, I'm running vBulletin 2.3.4 with vbindex 2.1

bit of a problem:
www.team-tekka.com/vbindex.php

news doesnt come up! :o thats it. layout stuff will be fixed later but im really concerned about news

Read through the thread and find the hundreds of posts about setpostid.php which give you instructions on howto fix this.

Hey NTLDR, love vBindex, well done :D Just installed it on my forums, and it works great except for one little problem. Hope you fix it...I've attached an image, basically, the black strips there shouldn't be there, since the cateogry bg isn't that color...(or whatever the strip's set to inherit). Any idea what's wrong?

Thanks,
leo.
