Question for vBuletin Admins
 

Where are all the great hackers at? The great ones looking to make some money?

I have been trying to get a hack project finished :tired: - I even went to Elance.

I lowered the difficulty too. I need just two extra pages in the user cp. One has resume details like experience fields displaying education and certifications and stuff like that and - the other has uploaded images.

Great program - I have found it to be respected by many programmers and even a bit threating.

My goal: learn PHP and be your next greatest contributer at vB. :) I know this interface can be a lot of fun and easy to play with if someone was really good with the necesary languages.

Are there books to optimize vB hacks. Has anyone printed a manual for PHP in regards to vB?

Do vB admins ever do 'unofficial' work for hire on the side? :nervous:

:frusterated:

Your idea or request might not be as popular as others, which is why it's not fulfilled.
Unfortunately vBulletin is not important enough (yet! ;)) to have books written about it. And as for a PHP manual, you have the best at ww.php.net (but don't try to learn from that site, doesn't work).

It doesn't?
Hmm, then I should mail everyone that installed my hacks and tell them to remove them, because I don't know PHP.

Uh-oh! What if my employer finds out I don't know PHP ;)

In that case Chen, I shall start immediately on a book!:)

The site works, but it's not easy to LEARN PHP from it. If you did, good for you. :)

I take it you know that I am just pulling your leg...

In that case, get off;)

Rahh!!

I think someone should publish a "vB Hackers Manual."

It IS that important. Look at some of the boards. I bet if someone published it they would do very well.

Even better:

vBulletin 3.0 - THE ULTIMATE HACKERS GUIDE - your source to vB php and templates.

Yeah? :)

BTW,

Was mine not important enough - or is supply short of demand. It IS important to me.

I think we need more coders. And I will try - like I said, to learn it. Give me a few months though. ;)

running to the book store

FireFly - how much you charge an hour? Ever do any personal hacks for people? :classic:

Like you said, it's supply and demand. If your request is something very specific to your forum, and won't be used by many others, the hacker will more than likely skip it and do something more will enjoy.

Email me (chen@vbulletin.org) if you are interested in custom work.

Cool...

I may just do that:)

I said 'pulling', not 'humping' :alien:

It's not important, but PHP.net helmed me IMMENSELY. Yes, I had to have the basics of the language down first, but once I did, I learned tons just browing through function definitions.

Must be my extreme Homophobia...:D
