Question about [HOW TO - vB4] Create your own vBulletin page

        break;

// add more cases here if you have more than one custom page. no need for multiple plugins. one plugin can handle all.

}

.
2. hook location online_location_unknown:

Code:

switch ($userinfo['activity'])

{

    case 'mypage':

        $userinfo['where'] = '<a href="test.php?'.$vbulletin->session->vars[sessionurl].'">My Page</a>';

        $userinfo['action'] = "Viewing My Page";

        $handled = true;

        break;

// add more cases here if you have more than one custom page. no need for multiple plugins. one plugin can handle all.

}

.
The colored part in the code above shows what you need to change in the plugins (both reds should be the same and both blues should be the same, whereas green can be whatever you want).

Hey i quoted this from your "[HOW TO - vB4] Create your own vBulletin page" but didnt want to ask on that Article because my question is to do with a None Vbulletin page

Can i use this code for adding a none Vbulletin page on 4.0?

case 'href="www.test.com'
Something like that?

Thanks

Follow the hook_location "online_location_process" and find out what the switch is doing. It's looking at the location your user is at. And, that location is grabbed from the location field in the session table. If your users location is in there, then you can use it. If your user is somewhere where the location isn't entered into the session table, they you can't use it.

Where would i search "online_location_process" or "hook_location" in the adminCP

Would it be the "Plugin System"?
Thanks

Doesn't your text editor search files? I just plug in a word and ask it to do a search in my uploads directory. I couldn't code if I couldn't go look up hook locations (how else do you find what variables are available for use?). This particular hook is in the functions_online.php file.

All right hours trying (thought i could do it without asking your help again but here i am)

This is what i have done and where i am also stuck

I made this php script

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('CSRF_PROTECTION', true);  

$phrasegroups = array();
$specialtemplates = array();
$globaltemplates = array();
$actiontemplates = array();

chdir ('/home/*******/public_html');
require_once('./global.php');

exec_shut_down();
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html dir="ltr" lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Extra Online Users</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="content-language" content="en" />
</head>
<body style="margin: 0px">
<!--  -->
</body>
</html>

And uploaded it to my root
I than added

Code:

<iframe src="http://www.myanimeisland.com/extra_online_users.php" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" width="0" height="0"></iframe>

To my none VB page

Than added these two in the plugin manager

online_location_proces

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($filename)
{
    case 'extra_online_users.php':
        $userinfo['activity'] = 'extra_online_users.php';
        break;
// add more cases here if you have more than one custom page. no need for multiple plugins. one plugin can handle all.
}

online_location_unknown

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($userinfo['activity']  == 'extra_online_users')
{
    case 'extra_online_users.php':
        $userinfo['where'] = '<a href="extra_online_users.php?'.$vbulletin->session->vars[sessionurl].'">MAI-Wallpapers</a>';
        $userinfo['action'] = "Viewing MAI-Wallpapers";
        $handled = true;
        break;
// add more cases here if you have more than one custom page. no need for multiple plugins. one plugin can handle all.
}

Now on my whos online i see the user on my page But it says
Unknown Location
/extra_online_users.php

I just cant seem to get it to say "Viewing MAI-Wallpapers" and point to the URL
Anyone any ideas?

Thanks alot:D

Lynne

I don't think putting it in an iframe is going to work with this. Have you tried going to the page and then checking your location in the session table to see what it says? Like I said above, the location is in there and so you need to make sure it is correct in there or you can't use it.

You say iframe might not work how would you add it if you was doing this?

Thanks Lynne your the best :up:

Try changing these lines to not have the .php:

PHP Code:


		
			
$userinfo['activity'] = 'extra_online_users';
case 'extra_online_users':

Also, did you make sure your plugins were turned on?

I mean, have you actually looked at the session table in the database and seen what is in there - you need to see what information is in there. Also, is your custom page in the same directory as the vbulletin files? This won't work if it isn't.

Oh wait yes the "extra_online_users.php" is in my Forum Dir
As for the database no i stay away from them they scare me :/

if this means i have to mess with SQL i guess ill have to forget the idea
I saw you tut and the other guys "whos online idea" and tryed to get it to work on 4.0

Thanks

Wait a sec... why did you make this line like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($userinfo['activity']  == 'extra_online_users')

It's supposed to just be:

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($userinfo['activity'])

Whoops.... when I told you to change that one line and remove the .php from it, I meant the other one, not both. Sorry about that. For the first plugin, you need to have that in the case line:

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($filename)
{
    case 'extra_online_users.php':
        $userinfo['activity'] = 'extra_online_users';
        break;
// add more cases here if you have more than one custom page. no need for multiple plugins. one plugin can handle all.
}

Leave the second one as is. Now let's see if it works. (Again, sorry about that, I didn't look to see that the line was the same in two places.)

Okay here's the online_location_process

if($filename=='extra_whos_online.php'){$userinfo['activity'] = 'Viewing MAI Wallpapers';}

K now! For the second part online_unknown_location

PHP Code:


		
			
if($userinfo['activity']=='Viewing MAI Wallpapers')

{

    $userinfo['where'] = '<a href="extra_whos_online.php?'.$vbulletin->session->vars[sessionurl].'">'.$vbulletin->options[bbtitle].'  - Viewing MAI Wallpapers</a>'; 

    $userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing MAI-Wallpapers';

    $handled = true;

}

Hmm i think am asking the wrong way

all i am trying to do is get my None Vbulletin pages to show in the Whosonline in vbulletin when a user is on them
maybe making that extra_online_users.php was a bad idea (there is nothing on it should be blank)

Thanks anyway :up:
