Who Am I A Buddy Of - Version 2.0

[ Feature Description ]
This feature allows users to easily see who they are buddies of along with an easy way to add/remove buddies right from the page! This modification is a big upgrade from the one I made for vBulletin 2. It has proved to be a very useful tool for my members. As of this version, there are noother known performance optimization techniques, nobugs and no security problems.

[ Version 2.0 Fix Log ]
2.00 -> 2.01 - July 20, 2004
Updated a non code related error in the installation instructions. (Bug finder: Dennis B)

Fixed a bug for people using tables with prefixes. (Bug finder: the Sandman)

2.00 -> 2.01 - July 20, 2004

Fixed a small warning that was displayed if zero people had you on their buddy list. (Bug finder: Zelda King)
Templates are now cached. (Bug finder: Zelda King)

[ Updates From Version 1.0 ]

Uses only one query to get all the information needed for this! (This took me a while to figure out but I got it all into one query using regular expressions and left joins).
User CP navigation link and proper displaying added.
Better formatting.
Easy add/remove buddies from the list with a "- buddy" if a user is already a buddy and a "+ buddy" if the user is not a buddy.
Percentage of users that are mutual buddies (both of you have each other on buddy lists).
Updated a security bug.
Huge performance increase.
Fixed the big bug that didn't display results if your userid was at the beginning or end of the buddylist.

Wonderful addition! It took me all of two minutes to install and works perfectly. Nicely done.

i thought that we had enough with vBFriends - View your social network is working well, easy to manage, one file script, very attractive look too...

Just a note: the following templates are uncached in whobuddies.php;

USERCP_SHELL (1)
usercp_nav_folderbit (3)
whobuddy (1)

EDIT: Here, I fixed it. :)

EDIT 2: If you have no buddies you get this error: Warning: Division by zero in /domain/url/whobuddies.php on line 50 (note line 50 is counting my template caching [in my attached file]. The default file would be about line 45 or something;

PHP Code:


		
			
$mutualpercent = round((($mutualcount / $buddycount) * 100),2);

).

Also noted: This hack adds a page so a Who's Online location needs adding. I'd post the code but I just used that Custom Add Online Locations hack. :D

No really, I always liked this hack. vBulletin should really be shipped with such a feature, I reckon.

True, but not everyone wants to make their buddy lists public and I feel like this is more straight-forward. This feature efficiently lists who you are a buddy of and your relationship to that buddy. You can easily add anyone (or remove anyone) from that list with just two clicks. Also, unlike friends.php, this only uses ONE database query whereas the other one can use many depending on how many buddies you have.

Gamingforce,

Nice job, will install tonite.

Just a remark: in the installation instructions you say:

[OPEN FILE includes/functions_user.php]
==================================================
(...)
==================================================
[CLOSE FILE includes/functions_newpost.php]

That was exactly the concern raised by my members in the past so this suits my board perfectly. Thanks again!

The install didn't work for me:

Code:

 

Invalid SQL: 

                                SELECT usertextfield.userid, user.username

                                FROM vb3_usertextfield

                                LEFT JOIN vb3_user

                                USING (userid) 

                                WHERE usertextfield.buddylist REGEXP '[ ]3[ ]'

                                OR usertextfield.buddylist REGEXP '^3[ ]'

                                OR usertextfield.buddylist REGEXP '[ ]3$'

                                ORDER BY user.username ASC

 

mysql error: Unknown table 'usertextfield' in field list

mysql error number: 1109

Did I mess something up?

Hahah, a hack from a board I already go to. Good hack; I originally saw it on a vB2 and was wondering where I could find it. Thanks.

An interesting twist on this would be instead of comparing buddy lists, compare ignore lists :)

very nice... kinda depressing to be the owner/admin and not be on one users list :-p ^_^

for some reason I don't have anyone in my list even tho I know that I do. I'm using 3.0.3 -- the other person that I know has me, has my name in his list, but I don't have his in mine -- does it have something to do with having multiple people? Because I look at the buddylist and each id is separated by a space. For some reason I think it's only reading the first id and not any others. Anyone else have this problem?

I didn't think of this at all. I have a forum where people form networks, largely powered by external scripts, but same database, and the method I use now is tedious, this is much easier.

Gaming force,

Great hack.

One question for you - If User A sees that User B has added them to their buddy list (because unlike MSN messenger you don't have to 'accept' that a user wants to be added to their list) and if User A doesn't want to be a part of User B's buddy list does your hack allow User A to remove themselves from User B's buddy list?

Hope that makes sense.

Im sure there has been one, but i cant find it. Does someone knows it?

i had my friend add me back to see if the hack worked and while he can see me on the list, i can't see him. is there any way to fix that?
