vBStatus - Facebook Style Status Display (v4)
This modification thread will not be upgraded, since it is possible that some users may prefer v4. Compatible with 3.6.x and 3.5.x vBStatus allows your users to update their status to tell other members what they are doing/thinking at any given time. A user's status is displayed under their names in their postbit, in their User Profile, and anywhere else you choose!User's can edit their status quickly and easily via AJAX. Administrative options include:
Update 2.0: Please reinstall the product xml file, and re-edit your templates following the new instructions in the readme file. This is to correct a small cosmetic bug that displays non-functional links to guests and non-admins. Update 3.0: A number of bugs were fixed, and a few new admin options were added. Please uninstall the previous product and reinstall this one. Please re-edit your templates and reupload all files. Sorry for the inconvenience (but at least we are getting this handled in the first 12 hours of release.) Update 4.0: This is a fairly comprehensive update. You must remove all previous template edits and add the new template code. You must also "Allow Overwrite" when importing the new product. The DB structure hasn't changed. New features include:
I added status prefixes. If your updating from version 4 just reimport the product (with overwrite set to yes), and reupload all the files. No template edits necessary when upgrading from v4 to v4.01. (And I'm not going to change the file version because this update came so quickly on the heals of v4.) Please do not forget to click INSTALL |

very nice thanks :)
|
where are the files? :)
|
They should be attached to my post. I did upload a new copy to fix a small cosmetic bug, check again.
|
I am getting the following javascript error when I try to update the status:
document.getElementById("mypopup") has no properties on the following code PHP Code:
|
I may have made a mistake in my directions for the template edits.
|
Change the template edit in headeinclude to this
Code:
<if condition="$vbulletin->options['vbstatus_active']"> |
Thanks Attilitus! [s]Tagged for future use.[/s]
Edit: Installed |
In MEMBERINFO I cannot find this line: <if condition="$userinfo['usertitle']">
So far that's the only thing I see wrong. |
all my groups expect admin and super mods are getting this error

Ah. There was a change in the 3.7 variable name. Put the code for MEMBERINFO above the following line:
Code:
<if condition="$prepared['usertitle']"> Edit: The new installation instructions now include the proper "find" code for 3.7. |

awesome mod BTW!!! thank you.
|
Alright I made that one change, however it still doesn't seem to be showing under my members names.
I did upload the file contents to the "root". Meaning, I took all the files out of the folder (vBStatus v2) and placed them in the "root" of my forum. I also upload the whole folder to the root of my forum, and still nothing is showing. hmm |
Did you read the installation readme file? There are 3 template edits that must be made manually.
|
Yeah, I'm the one that told you about the MEMBERINFO problem, so yes I did do all 3 template edits.
|
Also, this is what I do to edit the templates:
AdminCP>Style Manager>Edit Templates (drop down)>"then just choose the template you need to edit" That's what I do, but not sure if it's right or not, as I am still learning vbulletin, but I"m not new to installing stuff if you know what I mean.. Here's my files: headinclude: Code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=$stylevar[charset]" /> Code:
$template_hook[postbit_start] |
MEMBERINFO:
Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype] |
Check your vBulletin options for vBStatus. Is there an option for turning vBStatus on/off? Also are you sure that you are editting the template that your site is currently using?
Also, I have reuploaded the files to fix the bug which causes all users to be banned when no banned usergroup is specified. To fix just reupload the files, there is no need to reupload the product or update any templates. |
Ok I found my problem :)
What I did was I coded in "postbit_legacy" instead of "postbit" . So for anyone else that may have this issue, just try either or if one doesn't work for you :) GREAT MOD |
Glad everything worked out. I would suggest reuploading the product and reuploading all the files now though. As I've fixed a few bugs in the past 15-20 minutes.
I'll release a v3 version once I'm satisfied all bugs have been squashed. |
Also, another thing I noticed in your instructions is you say: Upload all files in the Upload folder to your forum root.
lol At first like I said a minute ago, I uploaded all the actuall "files" in the vbstatus folder to the "root". But in order for this mod to work, you need to only upload "the folder" in the upload "folder" to the root of your forum. So I think to save confusion, you should reword it like this: Upload all folders in the Upload folder to your forum root. I may be wrong who knows as I am still a newb at this forum, but just trying to help if I did :) AGAIN GREAT MOD edit-Yeah I reuploaded it |
looks cool... any feedback on how it looks in postbit legacy? is there a text limit and can users break the style?
|
It will look perfectly fine in postbit_legacy.
There might be some potential for users to break the style. I will add a word_wrap and a character limit. (Right now the practical character limit is 200 characters by virtue of the db table size). |
v2 kills the header links in firefox.
|
I'm getting database errors now after uploading the new files. You can view my forum at "forums.hastyhost.com"
hope it's ok to post links like that |
first of all thanks a lot.
It seems there is issue with positioning in the code we have to add to headinclude. it made lmost half of header unclickable (did I use it right?). I mean the logo and some of links in the navbar are not in links style unless you click on Edit Status once.). I checked the code and seems it's because of positioning. I tried to change it to fixed, relative and static. they solved that issue but made another one: extra height in header. for now I solved my problem by removing the height from the code which I know is not a good solution. anyone can help me? |

Change the following bit of code to fix the problem with unclickable header links:
headinclude Code:
<div id='mypopup' name='mypopup' style='position: absolute; width: 250px; height: 200px; background: none; border: none;'></div> Code:
<div id='mypopup' name='mypopup' style='position: absolute; background: none; border: none;'></div> |
Hey, I followed the instructions exactly and ended up with this:

Can this be changed so that people can change their status in the top right corner of each page? Same as you can with the Vmoods Manager hack?
|
Wow. I'm sorry. I left a line of uninstallation code at the bottom of one of the files.
If you are encountering this DB error please do the following: 1) Go into the product manager. 2) Edit product vBStatus. 3) Delete everything inside the uninstallation code box. 4) Go back to the product maanger. 5) Uninstall the product vBStatus. 6) Reinstall version 3.0 fresh. |

i got the same problem |
Yea, that most recent update had a mistaken line of code in it. If you are getting that DB error follow my previous instructions to uninstall the product.
Version 3 is released now. Do a fresh reinstall of that version and everything ought to be fine. |
