vBExternal v1.6

Well, this doesn't modify any php, nor use a plugin, so i wasn't sure exactly where to stick it :p

Anyhow, this is a port of the vBExternal for vb 3.0.7, so look at this thread for more information: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=81943

Enjoy :)

Yup, full parsing for bbtags and emoticons/smilies + auto URL correction (no red-x's) :)

Thanx was a little unsure has it was not working on my 3.0.7 but i just seen that was my mistake when i was editing the code so it only pulls so much of the text and adds a read more link.

Heres a screen shot for anyone who wants to see what this hack does :)

This is very, very nice and easy to use! I'm loving it. It's very well done and getting it to work and look how you want is just editing simple HTML. Thanks!

Is it just me getting database errors? I'll see if I can get the query which is failing on me...

Errors may occur if you have used a function incorrectly, please specify what you have used on your web page, thank you :)

I used a smilie in one of my posts, it's not showing the image as its trying to retrieve it from "http://www.example.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif". How would I go about changing example.com/forums to fit me? I've looked over the directions several times, but may have missed something.

I've just installed this and it was just along the lines of what I was looking for

Just wondered if there is an easy way to get the posts to show up just like the posts do in the forum rather than just a boring old box?

And also can it pull the footer from the forums to use on the main news page as well ?

As for the forum footer, i'm afraid not, the purpose of this modification is to extract dta to your website, not make it look like your forum.

I think I've got problems beyond vBexternal... When upgrading my test forum to 3.5.0b1 from 3.0.7, it seemed like some of the updates applied extremely quickly, and i reckon something may have stuffed up... the DB error page isn't recognising my technical email addy, hence not sending the error via email with the query, so i can't seem to find out what specifically is going wrong...

Besides that, the page i'm pulling vBexternal news onto, has many many includes here and there, many of which are pulling data out of vbulletin here and there... on top of that, one of the includes is already calling global.php, which may be my problem?

Either way, i might do a fresh install as my test bed, then go from there. I'll just have to figure it out myself, because i have my own custom shonky coding all over the shop, and it's probably not a vBexternal problem at all, because everyone else seems to have no errors...

Cheers for the help anyways :)

Sorry to bother, but I didn't see a function to pull out upcoming events and holidays? Would this be possible to do or is it too complex?

Thanks!

How do you set the number of characters that appear with a news snippet? I would prefer to display the whole piece of news.

azmi	06-28-2005 07:34 AM

is it possible to display the message in the last news ?
maybe like in the last X posts 3.1 ?

and how get i the header to become shorter ?
(this is the header message.... -> this is the ...)

thx a lot for this hack :classic:

is this mod able to put the next X calendar events on a page? If not, can that be added? I've downloaded mod like that for 3.0.7, but it doesn't work that well. It'd be nice if everything was in one script anyway.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class vbulletinhook in /home/varilla/public_html/forum/vBExternal.php on line 119

is it possible top truncate the news ? sometimes its tooo lengthy. hmm ?

for e.g.:

news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news news

1st I assume this should also work in vb3.5 rc1
2nd if the forums are located on a different site than the page you wish to insert the top threads into...

<?php
chdir('./forums');
require_once('./vBExternal.php');
?>

how do you fill this out.

Hi Zero Tolerance I like your script.
Could you add this to your script:
I want to put the small login box that is on the right side inside the navbar on an external page.
Here is a screenshot of what I would like to extract:

great hack thanks a lot
i just have a little problem:
News Article: Londres attaquй instead of attaqu?.
What's my problem?

welo	08-13-2005 07:55 AM

Okay, this is pretty cool. Have it running on RC2.

Couple of things though:

1. Can something be done to more easily eliminate forums you don't want posts drawn from except leave them out of the whole list? Like for instance:

restrict_NewestThreads(5,"1,2,3");

...would draw from every forum except 1,2,3. Would make it a lot easier to exempt your admin and special usergroup forums.

2. Would be really nice if thread titles could be restricted to a certain specified character limit. So if the thread title is really long you could chop it off and add ... after 20 characters f.ex.

Otherwise very cool indeed :up:

I dont get what this hack does. It gives you a way to make another html page integrated into vbulletin so you can put any content with vbulletin headerS?

It allows you to export data from your forum and place it onto your own custom website easily.

08-16-2005 12:51 PM

its used for people that say have a website that uses a different system or that they do from scratch and just want to display the forum stats on there actual website and not on the forum

like in the navigation you could have a table that shows the latest 3 posts from your forum then if they cli9ck the latest thread it will launch your forum..

Note: anyone know how to get the actual user count from this instead of the actual users online names, i justwant like 340 total Users | 200 members |140 guests

Ah! No wonder where NOT forumid in({$Forums}) wasn't working :). Thanks for that.

check that thread for some vb login stuff. I knew someone had done it already, just a matter of finding it.

Kayn	09-08-2005 05:57 PM

This is great! Way better than that horrendous Pluhnews I released a few years back... (total PHP newb I was, yes yes)

Anyway, I recommend giving some more options to the user without them having to hack it manually, like the time a news post was posted, who the last comment was by, etc. Just some ideas.

Kru	09-09-2005 04:23 AM

On my homepage : www.mirzone.net I am running vbexternal 1.6 https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=83005

Now, I wanted to run VB Login on a Non-VB Page vB3 RC3: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61112 from there, too.

I already got this hack succesfully to run on a test page, too: http://www.mirzone.net/testing.htm

However I don't get to run both hacks together.

The problem is that vbexternal want this code at the top:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

chdir("/.../.../.../mirzone.net/html/forum/");

include('./vBExternal.php'); 

?>

and VB Login:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

  chdir("/.../.../.../mirzone.net/html/forum/");

require('./global.php');  

chdir("/.../.../.../mirzone.net/html/"); 

?>

If I try to run both codes (above) I always get the following error message:

PHP Code:


		
			
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class vbulletinhook in /var/www/vhosts/mirzone.net/httpdocs/forum/includes/class_hook.php on line 29

Have anybody an idea how I can fix this, please?

anyway to show the contents of the quote tags on the mainpage news?
