the original version of this would add a query per buddy, is that still the case?

Ok, i've got it installed and working, few bugs to report though that i've found, but that's what beta's are for right... ;)

If it'll let me i'll add some screenshots to give a visual too.

1. Follwing the instructions to the letter, the memberslist and members info templates don't display right. (easy to fix for me though, but probably not for some others) For the members info bit, it also needs the td thead bit adding too or it looks wrong and it looks like there are no phrases for the buddy icons at the bottom of the list either?
2. You may want to add the buddy icons to your attachment, I had to get them from the original hack.
3. How the heck do you display your actual buddies page? I can't find anywhere in the instructions that actually tells you how to use it once it is installed?
4. It's not showing up the little icon in members list if you have buddies on my forum either?
5. Ok, got to my buddylist and as you can see from the screenshot of that, it's not quite displaying the way I think it is meant to.

I'll keep on looking and see if I can find any more potential bugs, after all, once found they can be corrected. :)

Edit: I've had to disable it for the time being as it's to buggy to let it be public, but besides working through some of the issues, I think this is going to be a superb addition once complete. :)

That's great. It's looking really good :)

New package that fixes all errors, reupload buddies.php, overwrite plug-in and upload images.
@detomah: numbers 2-5 have been done.
about number 1: I checked the instructions on a clean board (non-edited templates) and they are not wrong... Maybe the templates have been edited before or you didn't follow instuctions right (above/below....)

Grz,

Cool. :)

Not too worried about 1. as it was to be honest, simple template edits fixed that one for me, that one could have been my error, thought i'd add that as well though just in case. :)

Will upload the fixes and let you know my results anyway. *fingers crossed* although i'm sure it'll be much smoother now. :)

Ok, I put it live for a bit to test with some users and they are all getting an error when trying to access their buddies list:

Email:
and

MySql Error:
Bizarre though, it works fine for me, but not for another admn or a normal user?

Also, I have 15 people in my buddies list, yet it only showed 5 of them on the buddies page?

I still don't get an icon next to peoples names who have buddies on their list in the memberslist either?

The icon must be fixed, as I tested it on a clean board (from dholaholics.com) And there it worked, are you sure you uploaded images in right directory and did the template edits?

Maybe view source of the memberlist page and search...
I'm now looking for that error, It has something to do with the approve thing, however it works on my forum :s
I think It might be showing up if there are no wannabees, Will check this, I have found some broken phrases, will fix them too and re-upload the zip package.

BTW, be sure those buddies also have added you, vbbuddies only shows buddies who are linked back.

<u>10-november-2005:
Another fix: When no wannabees
Fixed some phrases.</u>
Just overwrite the product

Ok, all the templates are displaying fine for me now, think that was partially my fault.

The mysql error is fixed now.

1. It still not showing the correct amount of buddies in buddies.php I have 8 on my list now, but it's only showing 6, but I have the maximum per page set at 12 in the admin options.

2. The only other bit that seems to be not working for me now is the icons on the memberslist. It shows the gray one if they have no buddies, but it isn;t showing either the green one or the red one.

One other suggestion also, maybe have a link in the postbit popup that lionks to your buddy list?

Sorry if you think i'm gibbering on here by the way, just trying to offer my services in testing it a little while I install it for myself.

Edit: Ok, I've figured out the bit with the showing the buddies. I guess it only shows people on your buddy page who your on the list of, so basically no wanabee's. Is that meant to be that way. If so, that bit is working fine then, lol. Eeek, or maybe reading the text on that page might of helped me get that a damn sight quicker, DOH. >.<

Hey, It indeed, it shows only buddies who have also you on their list and you have them on your list, no wannabees, it's meant to be like that.

I don't think you are gibbering, I 'm very glad you test this and report bugs.
I think I add a seperate image and part on the page vor wannabees, wil have to see about that.

Grz,
