Thanks for your help Boofo.
As for the internal link. How did you do it?
Just create your own database?

That's looking good Boofo.

I uploaded a new pic in that last post that shows a flag that is not just US. I found a place that gets updates from one of their IP sites and separates it into separate files. The file system will be faster and not have to depend on an outside site in case it goes down or gets overloaded, or what not. I haven't had an IP shows up yet that didn't have a flag for it and it seems to be accurate. The only downside is you have to keep the db files up-to-date but the site I got it from updates them every month. The latest update was today. I'm working on adding the flags to the profile and postbit but that is going to take some doing. ;)

@Joe - Thank you, sir. ;)

UPDATE: Finally finished the mod. I got the flags to show in the Who's Online as well as the Postbit and Member Profile. ;)

*Up-Date*
Advanced Version Now available!

There is now a paid advanced version of this mod available with no outside links. It also shows the Flags in 3 places:

1) Who's Online
2) Postbit
3) User's Profile page

About the paid advanced Version
This will fetch the flags directly from you site and is accurate.
If you hover over the Flag is also tells you the country name.
It has options for usergroups and userids for who is allowed to view the flags.
A monthly update of the included files to keep the flags accurate is added to the paid version at no charge.

For all those who are interested in the paid advanced version, please PM Boofo directly and he will take it from there, providing you with and necessary info:

Boofo- https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=9948

is there a demo of it

Please PM Boofo- https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=9948
And he will show you the demo, screen shots and all the necessary info for it.

I've tried it out and it is really good.

we need a demo
plus there 3 options shown above where discussed in multiple posts via yourself and boofo on how to do this, making it easy to copy and convert to a advanced version
all that is nesesary to do it copy the same code in the above 3 places as a plugin
or using TMS

i'd need to know what features it provides not just standard template edits
for example can i can font face via admincp for postbit, footer, and user profile field
and i can colour of font for individual areas

can i hide this from certian groups

i think people need to have a full list to know this is a advanced version

---------------------------------------------------------------------
suggestions to make this an advanced version please

1. able to change font face (postbit legacy)(profile)(whos online)
2. able to change colour for each section (postbit legacy)(profile)(whos online)
3. hide from certian usergroups
must provide as tick boxes not standard text entert to deny usergroup 2 viewing for example
ans W3C complaint ( the code itself would have to be W3C complaint) please dont get confused with vbulletin already being w3c complaint

saying that you tried it out must also mean you have this yourself
please provide screenshots

The advanced version of this mod will not be discussed in this thread. The necessary info has been supplied in the first post. Thank you.

i installed this on vb 4.1.9 but not showin up flags at all any idea boofo :)

If you are using a custom style, that might explain it as this is set up for the default style.

yes m8 im usin costum style anyways thanks good work like always from u :)

I've just found it has a bug in Fire Fox Version 9.0.1
Will be looking for a fix as soon as, maybe this is why it isn't showing for some of you guys.

Spewing this has become a paid mod.
I was hoping the "free" version might have been updated a bit to have flags packed with it and what not.
It seemed to be the direction it was going in the early posts but then bang PAID.

Contemplates uninstall........

They are 2 totally different versions and there is no way to add locally hosted flags to an outside link easily. There was a lot of work and time put into the Advanced version, along with the ongoing support.

The Advanced version from Boofo has just been updated on the first page;

It will show the Country Flags in 6 places:

1) Member List
2) Member Profile
3) Postbit
4) Private Messages
5) Show Groups
6) Who's Online

I have the Advanced version, just waiting for the updates for the new 3 places it shows.
It's a great vserion, you can see who is online and postbit as attached, it also great with the mouse hover over the flag.

Installed so far so good.

Could not get it to work on my 4.1.4, gave up after three tries and unistalled.

So you imported the xml and then when you checked the Who Is On Line no flags showed?
Do you have a link to your site so I can see the site, it might gives me a heads up to what the problem is.
Also which browser did you use to check with?
IE really has many problems with vB and products.
Did you check using another browser, say FF or Chromium?

IE 9, I have to use this browser for work related reasons; I'm at work by the way ;)

If it won't work with IE, then there is no point.

I'd really like to get it to work, and if so, might be inclined to get the paid version.

Installed again, nothing on IE or Firefox. No question marks, errors, flags, nothing. I also tried editing the template with just code, same thing.

I wouldn't worry too much about it; not that big a deal, but if you wanna suggest something else I'll try it.

The info for that is on the top of the page, so maybe give that a try.

Doesn't work for me either

You must be using a custom style then. It DOES work on the default style.

Must be something like that Boofo, I have around 4 custom styles running and the default one and it works fine on them all.
Maybe if the users who say it doesn't work could give me a url to their site it might help to work this out.

Aren't you using the Advanced version?

I am yes, sorry, what I meant was that I have tested my version from here on around 4 custom skins and it worked fine.

I just retested it on the default style and it showed fine for me also.

Well if anyone can't get it to work, I'd be happy to take a look at why.
I'd need an Admin Log nic to look at things though.

Maybe even Boofo would be up for doing the same as well.

No - very standard vB

Give us a link to your site?
Which version of vb are you using?

Is it possible to show the name of the country instead of the flag?

The Advanced version does, but it is not possible with the linked version.

Since I updated my site to 4.1.12 this has stopped working.
Any reasons why?
I use the default skin

Yes, the whosonlinebit template isn't there anymore. It will need to be redone for 4.1.12.

This was due to the Who Is Online Template no longer being in vB 4.1.12
In the next day or so i'll add the updated version for 4.1.12

Also the Advanced Version from Boofo is updated to 4.1.12

does this work on 4.1.12,i have it installed ,but does not show flags

To make it work for vb 4.1.12, you need to do the following:

In the xml file, change this line:


to this:


Let me know if that fixes it for you.

i changed the code in the xml file ,the re uploaded the file.I still dont see the fags.
