Why would I use this over Webtemplates? (honest question, not looking to flame your hard work).

What are the differences?

Inferno Tech 06-12-2007 07:24 AM
Never heard of it so i wouldn't be able to honestly answer that question.

Thanks for the great plugin, I've been looking for something just like this! :)

Quick question; is it possible when outputting newest threads / newest replies to specify all forums except private forums? I'd like it to fetch data from every forum section apart from the few admin only sections. I know that I can put all the other forum ID's in manually but having a lot of forum sections that can change from time to time, I'd be much better off with a way to do all except private. Any idea if that can be done?

in pro we are adding this feature that can be edited in the ACP, but atm it wouldnt work

Thanks for the prompt response Inferno Tech, I'll keep an eye out for the pro version.

In the meantime, is there anyway to exclude an individual forum at all? My coding knowledge is next to non-existent but I seem to recall ! meaning no. So I tried:
Code:
<?php
output_NewestReplies(5,"!22");
?>
Naturally, it didn't work but I'm wondering if there's something like that I could do? :o

Inferno Tech 06-12-2007 12:24 PM
that would produce an error, you would need to run an if statement for vb to exclude it or if you went into vbexternal.php and then looked for the function you wanted you could add a check to exclude the forums you dont want

cheers for that. Will this work for vb 3.5.4?

Hello...has this error been figured out?

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class vbulletinhook in /****/****/*****/****/public_html/forum/vBExternal.php on line 121

I can't get past this...

Thanks...

Mikhailtech 06-20-2007 04:30 PM
Can't get this to work. My site is http://www.mikhailtech.com. My forums are at http://forum.mikhailtech.com. What do I put in for the chdir settings??

4 pages and not a single person has their forums located in a subdomain?

BTW it's located in a /forum folder under public_html, but ('./forum') or ('../forum
) don't work.

Works fine on 3.6.7 for me

Rushyman 07-17-2007 11:39 AM
Her is something I really need to do with this. When you upload and attach an image then set it to [attach=right] or [attach=left] it embeds this image in the forum thread nicely either floated left or right when you use the attach button in the advanced editor.

vBExternal doesn't understand the BBcode and simply places the attachment 'id' in the news post instead of the image. What code needs to be added to vBexternal to make it work as a normal post would with image attachments and actually show the image that is attached?

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I'm using vBulletin 3.6.7 and get this error when I navigate to the home.php I created with your script.

Quote:
Warning: main(./includes/db_mysql.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/17/d208193755/htdocs/hdglides/vBExternal.php on line 67

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required './includes/db_mysql.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/17/d208193755/htdocs/hdglides/vBExternal.php on line 67
I checked my site directory and have no file called db_mysql.php in the includes folder or any other folder for that matter. Any idea of what the name of the file this should point to in v3.6.7?

Well I got past this by finding the appropriate version for 3.6.5 but now I get database error when I navigate to my home.php file?????????? Any ideas?

Any news on the Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class vBulletinHook in /home/arturos/public_html/forums/vBExternal.php on line 121 error?

It occurs if you try and require_once the globals.php to use the userdata on the same page as the vBExternal script.

edit: This post fixed the issue.

Ryuk 07-27-2007 01:44 AM

any faq on this? website is, d-gaming.org and as u can see -_- the news are too big.. altho ive set the width of the template (news.html) to 60.. it keeps doing the same <_<!

skepticality 08-09-2007 07:16 PM
I have about 3 different internal forms I don't want to show up through this. I don't see a way to exclude certain forums from showing up on my page using this.

Is there something I can do to 'exclude' certain forums?

And, if so, how exactly? I am not much of a whiz with php... but I can follow directions quite well!

TheBlackPoet 08-09-2007 09:10 PM
i like this a lot... very nice...

skepticality 08-09-2007 09:41 PM

skepticality 08-09-2007 10:32 PM
If you look in the .txt doc that is in the archive when you unzip it... there is a ton of options and such in there with instructions on how to turn off certain forums from showing, etc...

I just don't know how vBulletin 'numbers' the forums, so I did a hunt and peck to find the ones I wanted! :D

Ah, that I knew hehe. At the moment I've got it setup to display stuff from forums that I've listed. However, I have a lot of forum sections and they can change from time to time so I have a long list like 1, 3, 4, 5, 11, 13...etc etc that I need to update once in a while.

What I was looking for was a way to set it to output from all forums except the ones I'd specified. So lets say sections 2, 3 and 4 were private forums. I'd want to be able to just set it to do all forums except those. Couldn't find a way to do that though.

The problem I am having with this is that on firefox if the thread name is extremely long it does not take up a second line instead it stay on one line and expands the box I put it in distorting my entire home page.

I was looking for a way to constrain the number of characters in the thread name it shows.

looking for this too

Pacman15 08-11-2007 10:17 AM
Can you add the Date an time? :) I really need that :D

TYorke 08-12-2007 01:49 PM
Can BBCodes, HTML, etc be parsed correctly with this addon?

azn_romeo_4u 08-12-2007 03:58 PM
yea i have this on my website

www.flyffworld.com Fully customizable btw. Works nicely. Anyone know if this works on the latest version of vb?

Pacman15 08-12-2007 10:08 PM
It works... at least on 3.6.7 PL1 :)

Isn't there a way, that we can images attached to the post to show up on news?? And again also the date and time would be a nice addition.. :D

Not sure how safe/good this is, but after

PHP Code:
                                'threadid'     => $News['threadid'],
                                'threadname'   => $News['title'],
                                'postuserid'   => $News['postuserid'],
                                'postusername' => $News['postusername'],
                                'post'         => $bbcode_parser->parse(unhtmlspecialchars($News['pagetext']), $f),
                                'comments'     => vb_number_format($News['replycount']), 
I added:

PHP Code:
'date'     => date("F j, Y, g:i a",$News['dateline']), 
And this automatically made the {date} substitution available, you can change the date part to whichever you want, again I'm not sure it's completely good, or which ever.

I'm really new to this :o

Awesome, but I really meant to ask if custom BB Codes were able to be used externally through this script/add-on?

If not, anyone know of a way to parse custom BB Codes?

Pacman15 08-13-2007 09:26 AM
bb codes are parsed automatically :)

Thanks jags2ooo ;)

but the question remains: will custom BB codes be parsed as well?

Pacman15 08-13-2007 06:09 PM
I suppose they will, its a matter of trying... This script basically will get you, what it shows on the thread, so if it looks fine on the thread, it will look fine where you export it :D

Thanks. I will give it a whirl and report back with the findings :)

Yes it will be parsed. As long as the text doesn't get cut off.
