Any updates?

Any idea what the "|0|0" at the end of all of the steam community ids is for? This is stored in the database this way and we're trying to use {vb:raw user.steam_link} but this is causing us problems. We're trying to add Steam Buttons in to the site leaders / show groups template.

The |0|0 are flags if the user set up a password or an email. It's ugly and it will be changed in the next update, for now you can use the built-in functions in the functions_steamconnect.php or check out some of the plugins, there you can see how you can make the steamid available in the templatevars.

If you need help with a more concrete matter, feel free to post or send a PM


@Updates: Not until beginning of next year.

Not working for member who is already have an forum account? They can't link their steam.. But its working for a new register member if they use sign in with steam.

What's the problem?

Work fantastics. Thanks for the mod. Some suggestions if you would like to add them

1. AdminCp External Connections like the facebook one
2. In the header where the message welcome, username appears if you could embed the steam avatar with a small steam symbol like the facebook one.
3. In UserCp instead of steam connect -> steam account link the linkng process to show in the edit connections page
4. SteamID to appear in postbit under avatar in the user info area
5. Possibility to search in admincp by Steam ID 64


Also in admincp under Steam Connect Settings some phrases are strange :)
- Communityvisibilitystate
- Personaname
- Profileurl
- Avatarmedium
- Avatarfull

So when do you plan to release a update on this plugin with new features?

Any idea why some of my forum members have to connect on each visit?

Sounds like an issue regarding cookies.

With the latest version, the issue of having to login each time because the cookies weren'd flagged as permanent should have been solved and so far it seems to work.

Clearing all cookies for your domain should be enough. Or maybe there are some settings limiting cookies alltogether?

If the problem persists, try to gather some data which browser, operating system and security measurements those people are using who encounter the problem.

I'm new to Steam but, I have signed up and have added games, Granted I just downloaded my first game and it was one of the free games.

When I click the link in the admincp to get a key, it keeps telling me access denied until you have games in your account.

Is it limited to paid games, or am I just not giving it enough time.

I figured it out, downloading free games is not enough, I had to buy one through Steam. Thanks
